I (try to) make electronic music...when I can. Think synths and layered vocals and an ineptitude at making beats. Someone once called me Ireland's answer to Broadcast and - honestly? - I'll take that

A) I can't believe I forgot about this concert 🤦🏼‍♀️

and b) this is what my phone suggested I post when I wrote "I can't believe I forgot about this concert 🤦🏼‍♀️"

Have both sure: why not?

Bust out laughing at this as I just spent an hour explaining Ireland/Northern Ireland/The Troubles whilst traumatising my Korean teacher with talk of bombs, bombscares and evacuations and trying to explain why English policemen wearing those *stupid* hats was so hilarious when I moved to Liverpool

Serendipitous streak of sunlight across the mantel
A mantelpiece with a crystal single stem vase projecting a twisted shadow and a wispy light streak which ends in a rainbow, an oval frame with a hand drawn picture of David Lynch giving a signature thumbs up sign, and a round embroidery hood with a monochrome Twin Peaks version of the Sonic Youth Goo t-shirt featuring Cooper and Audrey. Lynch's eyes in the oval frame appear to be looking at the Sunbeam and rainbow.

Getting sarky in response. Passive-aggressive chat bot conversations are my jam.

#ChickenNugget is brilliant so far, for anyone even vaguely on the fence about watching it. Get involved.

I mean it's batshit, but that's to be expected. And it's batshit in alllll the right ways
