It’s a problem that none of the people criticised in the covid response report seems capable of shame, reflection or believing they could be wrong about anything. Everything’s just a game, other lives or deaths aren’t something they understand or even believe

An illegal street racer pulled up to me in Malta & threw This House of Grief at me, shouting, "Read it, you English dolt!" Then screeched off. This is a terrible way to get me to read anything but I picked it up from where it had ricocheted off a now dead pigeon and devoured it in 2 days. Brilliant.

I turned a corner and, mesmerised by my torch beam, they were motionless for long enough to take a photo. Then they ran towards the popcorn popping sky over the hill (a village firework display). Their ember eyes and the way they’ve gathered under the pole make them seem a little alien.

This is what I'm doing on Sunday. It'll be a belter.
Sly break down music to its base elements and reconstruct as rituals of amplifier worship, communing with the audience-as-congregation, getting right up in the heart of the chaos. They come to bludgeon you with cacophonic joy and camaraderie, modulating your mind into triumphant submission.

I have covid again. Worse dose since the initial one… tired, sloshy head, aching. I am catching up on some film watching though, so not all bad.

When people ask, "Right before the Republic crumbled, who was doing the best 19th century literary pun stencils?" remember my name.
