On the final day of the Stanley Donwood exhibition Red Maze (Heerlen, Netherlands, 2010), visitors were allowed to take his works off the wall, have them signed, and take them home. I quickly pulled this screen print from the wall. Donwood is best known for his artwork on Radiohead’s album covers.

Do you really need this, Harry? Three vinyl copies of the same album? Wow. The great sounding original from '95, the Friday Music pressing (trifold sleeve, white vinyl) and at the bottom left the best sounding 2022 lp. As far as I’m concerned one of David Bowie’s best albums: 1. Outside #davidbowie

I’m not really a fan of Nicolas Cage, but he’s pretty impressive in this one. A weird and psychological thriller called The Surfer.

Alex Chilton - Free Again: The 1970 Sessions. All great songs.
This record contains recordings from 1969 but was first released on CD in the 1990s and on vinyl in 2012. However, it sounds like a straight-up 60s/70s classic.

Het mooiste vd verkiezingsavond is natuurlijk het vertrek van de hypocriete moraalprediker Frans Timmermans. De man is zo vol van zichzelf dat hij al jaren in een andere werkelijkheid leeft. #Timmermans #verkiezingen2025

Meest opvallende aan verkiezingsuitslag is natuurlijk dat de echte linkse partijen of verloren hebben, of zijn blijven stilstaan in zetels. Je zou verwachten dat na het debacle van een rechts kabinet links massaal was opgestaan. Geen sprake van. #verkiezingen2025 #Timmermans

I regularly visit the German city of Aachen. As you walk through the streets, you don’t realize what happened here in 1944. This remarkable video places the footage from back then alongside the locations as they are today.
