What if instead of the book and film Yes Man, you felt like you were always saying no? Well that’s me, the No Man.
Touching on chronic illness, disability and depression, No Man is my letter to friends and family on my absence and isolation.
EP is free to download on Bandcamp

Written by Elvis Costello, performed amazingly by Robert Wyatt, probably the first performance of a song that brought tears to my eyes!

For years, the public has called them "fake artists." But internally at Spotify, the program has a name: Perfect Fit Content. My investigation, and the first look into my book Mood Machine, is the January cover at @harpers.bsky.social. Online now & on newsstands next week

With the Oasis reunion and football fans bemoaning their team playing out from the back, I’m surprised I haven’t heard “stop trying to pass out” to the tune of “Stop Crying Your Heart Out” yet
Just imagine: “stop trying to passsss ouuuutttttt”

I was in a group answering questions in a uni class. We couldn’t remember Quincy Jones’ name for some reason and then one person goes “Clancy James!”

Currently crying laughing at the fact that my gf just called James Gandolfini “Gandalf Mancini” thinking that was his actual name. I’m losing it.
