1. Petrol station attendant.
2. Glue factory production line worker.
3. Nightclub bar human.
4. Land surveyor theodolite holder.
5. Costumed performer at Alton Towers.
Here is a photo of me at the glue factory.

I’ve just lost a game of temperature roulette with Greggs. If I wanted a molten lead bake I’d’ve asked for one.

Amazing news that Suella Braverman has defected to Reform UK a mere 194 days since her husband, Rael Braverman, left Reform UK for comments they made criticising his wife.

Recently I asked Drew Daniel of Matmos /Soft Pink Truth to consider a question: what good is making music while the world slides inexorably into disaster.
In response he wrote an essay for tQ that should be of great interest to anyone creating art in the face of global events.

If I was Starmer I wouldn't be making dull speeches, I would simply paint a stick of dynamite brown and put it in a box labelled FANCY CIGARS and hand it to Trump, and while he was still dazed from the explosion I'd quickly make America British again

The last episode of Ashes to Ashes. Was in bits watching that. Twice.
Given that apparently the Stranger Things finale was meh (idk, didn't watch it, just the scuttlebutt) and we're not that far removed from the disastrous GOT finale that retroactively made everyone have never cared about the show:

I absolutely loved the Arena programme titles, the visuals and the music, when I watched episodes with my dad, and had absolutely no idea that it was Brian Eno who wrote the music. Imagine my surprise/glee when I dug into his early post-Roxy Music work. I’ve just the William Golding episode on.
