Dogs, AVFC, toilet humour, punk rock, reggae, Hank Williams, poet, singer, malingerer, ska. AKA The Archbishop. Poet in Residence at Coventry Music Museum. Lead singer Dept of Misinformation. Likes records a lot. Can't stop collecting.
The dogs' favourite toy has been disemboweled many times so to prevent this, I've stuffed his arm in the hole. Girafferty looks happy now.

The Oasis 'Poznan' thing makes me cringe. This sort of organised crowd involvement is so naff. I expect they'll be doing line dancing next.

Insane.
Trump: "You have a certain place in the Massachusetts area that over the last 20 years had 1 or 2 whales wash ashore. And over the last short period of time they had 18. Ok? Because it's driving them loco. No, windmills will not happen in the United States."

The most interesting fact about Hulk Hogan is that as a kid in France, Andre the Giant sometimes got driven to school by playwright Samuel Beckett

yikes -- Powell shakes his head as Trump rips into him for the cost of Fed building renovations. Powell denies some of the claims Trump is making.

I'm sure Lewis Capaldi is a very nice chap but his formulaic sadboi songs (slow intro gap raise volume of voice key change more anxiety more volume sudden stop voice only anguished singing back into chorus end) are really awful.

Interesting copy of Aesop's Fables I found the other day with an inscription from Charles Whibley to the woman he was besotted with, writer Lady Cynthia Asquith.

One for the British news media here.
"Bothsidesism is 'suicide for democracy.' In becoming stenographers rather than reporters, journalists effectively legitimize MAGA lies, hate, and fascism as just one reasonable side of a debate in which all partisans are equally credible."
ABC is too cowed to state the obvious about Stephen Miller
The road to fascism is paved with "objectivity" and "civility."

Sometimes you have to declutter and I'm afraid, this beautiful 18th Century book is a victim of the cull.
