Cale is always a cool customer, but when you move to NY to play 18-hour songs with LaMonte Young then launch the slow-morion Big Bang in an unheated flat on Ludlow St, I imagine it’s a tickle 60 yrs later to wind up next to a lovely pop star who worships you

A: Who gives a fuck apart from racists?

B: His figure is wrong. 71.2% of Glaswegian children speak English as their first language.

C: So that's 28.8% who speak it as a second and I'll bet you they speak brilliant English and that it's much better than most Reform voters I've met online.

Does anyone have the article (poss by Stewart Lee?) that describes Jerry Sadowitz's thoughts backstage at Just For Laughs, just before his "Good evening, moosef*ckers!" knockout opening line? Something like "once the idea was in his head, he had to say it onstage or else give up comedy". V moving!

Sure, these are the pills, which only work about 25% of the time.

Also adding the restored caption that goes with the night shot, just to give an example of the research I’m protecting by changing it.

I then save the pills into a folder so that I can cut & paste the old captions back in.

For the past six weeks, an AI Facebook account has been pulling my history posts on Instagram and slopping out new captions, so I’ve been feeding it poison pills and its followers are having meltdowns in the comments. It’s been pretty spectacular.

Our fire appliance was called to "person trapped by hands". Arrived to find a lady with both hands trapped by a sash window, obviously in a lot of pain. With a bit of humour one of the crew said to her "good job you're not a concert pianist", her reply "I am"

Perfect Tom Stoppard story from DTel obituary:

His response to a letter from Harold Pinter canvassing support for a proposal to have the Comedy Theatre in London rechristened the Pinter Theatre, “Have you thought, instead, of changing your name to Harold Comedy?”

Jesus Christ, the "remastered" Beatles Anthology documentary they re-released is filled with AI slop. Look at John and Paul's faces, and the "T" on Beatles.

Imagine being able to afford a kid, making the big decision to have that kid, and then being saddled with this insufferable little cunt as your offspring. This fashy little GTA3 custom character looking motherfucker is your legacy that you put in to the world to continue your bloodline. Rough.

You know when Rage Against The Machine's s/t album has powered you through your hilly morning run, the earbud jinxes 5mins from home and you suddenly lose your RATM mojo, and only Easy Lover can hit the same spot?

Yup, it's that kind of a morning [complimentary].

rich dudes got freakier after butlers fell out of fashion, like say what you will about having domestic servants but clearly it was some sort of moderating force on old rich dudes having a fancy man follow you around saying shit like "oh dear sir, that wouldn't be very becoming"

Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement.

Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph

Because this does NOT add up!

No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies…

Your reminder that "Bohemian Rhapsody" is a great song, and probably the weirdest massively famous song ever. You've just heard it too many times.

on radio 1 they have a broad age range and so they have to spell out what asylum seekers are, which means that you get much more of a sense of how mean spirited it sounds, it’s never as bad on there as on 2 or 6

First: albums. Linking ones I suspect lots of folks have not yet heard (though will at least mention the Lil Wayne album is underrated).
