I am here to discuss music, literature, and condemn the appalling genocide in #Gaza. I have no interest in publicly engaging with people I cut off contact with years ago. In the words of Brian May: "In the quiet of the night
Let our candle always burn
Let us never lose
The lessons we have learned."

The standard at @popmatters.com is always very high, so it's always wonderful to be part of it: www.popmatters.com/charli-xcx-w...
Charli XCX Brilliantly Channels Kate Bush and Emily Brontë » PopMatters

Topographic doesn't live up to the standard set by The Yes Album and Close to the Edge, but this is an excellent boxset: spectrumculture.com/2026/02/09/y...
Yes: Tales from Topographic Oceans (Super Deluxe Edition) - Spectrum Culture
As a box set, it’s exhausting and aimed at completists, but as an album, the band’s effort showed a group in control of their purpose and powers.

Not a good movie.
Emerald Fennell's iteration's of Emily Brontë's is cheap, tacky and badly-written torture porn; not even Jacob Elordi's charms and Charli XCX's score can rescue it from doom

Wuthering Heights - DMovies
A wooden Margot Robbie leads the charge in this bland and obvious erotic drama set in the 19th century, soundtracked by Charli XCX
