Youtube is a platform where you will be demonetised if you discuss issues like rape or suicide but they are more than happy to peddle this disgusting, thoroughly dystopian misogynistic shit:

Real men can't spell and don't know the difference between "there" and "their"

This is the kind of thing creative collaborators have to put up with getting in their renumeration envelopes from me. Unfortunately no one outside of my friend Ivan (director of The Hydrogen Trees videos) will get the Paul Wheater reference. It was fun drawing myself getting shot though:

My dear friend Jeffels wrote this about my music & I hope in at least some small way its true. He's up in Scotland now but was a gem of the Scarborough music scene back in the day. An awesome, endlessly creative musician whose energy & approach to guitar taught me so much:

When i just googled this for the link this is what the useless fucking AI result had to say about it. Had me worried someone was nicking my song titles/songs for a minute until I realised "Jamie Bishop" is actually just a person with this song in their bandcamp wishlist:

You would hope for a bit more nuance on these issues especially given the fact that their countries intellectuals and academics spout out bullshit like this on the regular though:

Always hated pictures of myself but here's a rare one to document my descent into scruffy autumn hermitude:

Rare picture of me playing in front of people at the New Tavern open mic night back in the day. Maybe around 2008-ish. The number of times I got called French by jerks in passing cars for wearing that tam o' shanter.

fuck this shit. I'd rather be common as muck than read the telegraph or look like a smug David Cameron clone.

I was curious if The Fall were an influence on Robert Pollard so googled it. Attached is what the AI summary thing said. Thing is the quote there attributed to Pollard is actually from a review of one of his solo albums. Not something he ever said. This shit can't get anything right.

I can't watch The X-Files without expecting the cigarette smoking man to randomly start drawling about how he "is not appreciated".

due to my extremely introverted & self conscious nature I've never been keen on playing live & haven't done so in years but here's evidence it did actually happen from time to time back in the day. 2007 so I must have been about 19 or so.

Been combing through some old hard drives and found this extremely myspace era photo of me and my friend Luke, in his basement flat on Seamer road sometime in the mid to late 2000's. Remember going for Indian food not long after this was taken:

Some of the super limited hand decorated CD covers for an upcoming Hydrogen Trees EP release. need to get on with it and finish these fuckers off.

kind of feel like "my AI art is the equivalent to an overly processed, mass produced microwave meal that I just heated up and took no effort to prepare" isn't the winning argument the AI bro's seem to think it is:

I desperately need a shave. starting to really live up to my reclusive reputation and looking like a mad hermit

Happy mother's day to my mum, who grew up in extreme poverty, fought off cancer, and as a WASPI woman has been completely betrayed by this awful country, yet still remains one of the kindest, funniest, most generous people I've ever known. Love you, Mum.
