The racists in the UK are not the ones attending pro-Palestine marches this weekend.

The racists in the UK are the ones saying that you shouldn’t protest 53 Palestinians being murdered because two Jewish people were also murdered on the same day.

Some of us can condemn both.

Maybe it will be liberation day, after all? The day that Trump makes a mistake so catastrophic that his political project never recovers

Just a quick line to say that Needle Mythology's unanimously acclaimed expanded, remastered, extensively annotated reissue of ASTRONAUTS by @thelilactime.bsky.social has almost sold out on CD and, of the 1000 3LP vinyl editions, there are approximately 200 left. These will not be re-pressed.

Across the board rave reviews for this beauty. Letters of bewildered gratitude from fans who can't understand how they passed a portal into a world where superdeluxe, expanded, mega-annotated remasters of their all-time fave below-the-radar masterpiece exist in the corporeal realm. It's what we do.
Thank you folks! About 200 triples and 200 single red albums left.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social on trains James. The idea that a full train isn’t one where the seats are all taken but one jam packed with peeps on luggage racks etc… obvs less serious than current discussion.

Word of the morning is ‘williwaw’ (19th century): a sudden violent squall or a toppling gust of wind.

Goes well with ‘thunderplump’: a sudden downpour that soaks you to the skin in seconds.

There isn’t a songwriter on earth who occupies as much of a space in my soul as Stephen Duffy. And of all his albums, there are none that make me feel quite the way Astronauts does.

This is three years in the making. Stephen put everything into these songs. The least we could do was follow suit.
