Apparently "the left" can't handle losing an election.

Reminder of what the right look like when they lose an election:

I put my albums into alphabetical order.

What pointless tasks have you been doing to numb your brain to the collapse of western civilization?

I'm about ready for this again tbh.

I once got this from EvRi as proof of delivery.

We never found where this field was.

Ben Ottewell at Caffi Isa.

That man's voice is incredible.

Last minute request to support Ben Ottewell (Gomez) on Monday :)

I'll be keeping it simple so just an acoustic, maybe a drum machine for some bits, sampler can't hurt, what's a synth between friends, where's my Tracker, I'll just pop a pedals on, is that a 303? Don't mind if I do

Or just acoustic.

Love Chad Vangaalen. First heard him in 2008 when I bought Soft Airplane from Rough Trade in That London (I'd gone down with my friend to see our vinyl on sale which was fun)

I think he bought At Rear House by Woods

After we went to our other friend's house and ate sun dried tomatoes and gnocchi

Yeah, I was being a bit absolute about it, I have CDs too. I mean it's not a thing for almost everyone else.

This is where you used to find me on a clothes shopping trip with my partner.

Many happy hours. Now I just stand by a bin or something.

Rate my Dad's lunch.

Baked beans in tomato soup with a side of chips on toast.

Ok, if anyone is keeping track on their "things that are all woke now" bingo cards, got a few new entries this week:

- Logos that don't feature cats
- Lowercase fonts
- Copying Elon Musk

The boy getting his own room. I had to get rid of a big built in wardrobe and plasterboard over an old doorway but finally got there.

I know it's not very interesting but other than work it's all I've done this week.

Actually, I played at an open mic but have no evidence of that.
