Not been to a gig before where they don't serve drinks until the first band is on?

Had an awful day so booked a ton of gigs and ordered a takeaway. Yay!

Worth checking out!

So many of the bands I'm going to see live this year are doing 20th anniversary tours. I think I need to finally admit I'm no longer young

Did you know the Royal Exchange Theatre is coming back to Stalybridge for The Den Festival?! There is 4 jam-packed, creative weekends, for residents to join in the fun running May 9 - June 1! 🕺 🎭 🤹 For more information👇 bit.ly/4lG1wWb

Kenyan #journalist Alvin Kaunda was reporting live from Nairobi when a curious baby #elephant, Kindani, decided to join the broadcast. The playful elephant stuck her trunk in Alvin's mouth, making for a hilarious moment! A joyful reminder of wildlife's charm and the work of the Sheldrick Trust!

Great to see Manchester Punk Festival, crowd and bands being inclusive of everyone as always, but particularly the trans community given the recent ruling. Always been a safe space and amazing music which is why it remains my fave weekend, every year.

🧵NOT BY ME, this is a post from someone who wants to remain anonymous but works extensively with trans people pre-transition. They were asked by someone “why do you think that’s so much [coverage of trans people] in the news at the moment?” This was their response:

Manchester Punk Festival is upon us! The weekend I look forward to the most every year

if you are a cis person it costs you nothing to just say today that you see & hear your trans sisters & brothers & others over in the UK today -- and around the world, too, knowing that rulings like today's ripple out in ugly ways.

On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked, "If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?" Allow our scaled diagram to explain...

Awesome RGP session with a new character. Learnt a lot since my first foray into PF2E to overcome previous struggles. Caracu, the earth-bending minotaur, is very fun to roleplay.

New one-shot this eve but do I play as an earth-bending minotaur or a vengeance demon hyena? At least I've narrowed it down to two options!

Trying to pick bands this year is impossible. So many clashes. Trying to establish a good mix of faves, new bands and those touring UK I'm unlikely to see again soon. Honestly tho having so much choice is a nice problem to have.

It's MPF25 Clasfinder time. Slowly working our way through @tnsrecords.bsky.social festival playlist to try and figure out which stages we'll be at this year

UK folks can you spare 15 min to complete this survey to shape live music. Appreciate any reposts so more of us can contribute too!

windfall (n.) mid-15c., from wind + fall. Originally literal, in reference to wood or fruit blown down by the wind, and thus free to all Such a cute #etymology that I'd never previously twigged (pun fully intended)

Dark dream this weekend asking my friend to help me dispose of a dead body. He was terrible at it and even accepted a mint sweet off the old lady who witnessed our crime. I've obviously been binging too many Dexter re-reruns lately, tho no idea why I'm started dreaming more these days
