I’ve reached the conclusion that ‘grown-up’ parties are simply out, a group of people complaining about how tired they are and being surprised that everyone they speak to has seen everything that they have on Netflix etc.

Very much enjoying ‘The Madness’ on #Netflix. And the casting of Laura Kuenssberg as the principal villain is inspired.

Goldbridge getting airtime on ‘big’ tv channels discussing Rashford situation. Can someone not out this cunt for the fraud he is. Akin to Tommy Robinson, it’s not even his real name. Isn’t he called Alphonso Fuckstick or something equally ridiculous? #mufc #united #football #Rashford

I’ve been telling anyone that’s worth telling that need to listen to Kneecap and watch the @kneecap05.bsky.social the movie but a fucking Oscar nomination is proper mental.

Put my back out bringing the Christmas tree into the house. They don’t show you that on the feel good Xmas movies….

The Twang - who are inexplicably still a thing - are currently touring and every fake piece of Stone Island in the country is getting a dusting down.

Just been having a conversation with someone about electronic music - in particular Human League etc. This lead to the burning question of has Sheffield got as great a musical pedigree/heritage as Manchester. And even as a Manc, I have to say that it absolutely does.

Book 51 of 52 for the year. Beautifully written story of one man’s relatively unassuming life. Not totally fulfilled but content, John Stoner’s life story is exquisitely portrayed by the writer. Proper recommend. #books #novels

An eclectic mix to say the least. And no surprise that ‘Starburster’ was my most streamed song. An absolute tune. #SpotifyWrapped

The kids - I’m delighted to see - have got this one right. This band are fucking superb musically and have something to say politically - which in itself is an understatement as they are red hot in this regard with their Unified Ireland ideology. Keep it coming lads www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Mate of mine who is a few years older than me has just taken up ‘walking football’ Funnily enough, his favourite player is Marcus Rashford. Good to have a role model that you can aspire to….

In fascinating news, a spoon left on the computer touchpad does register and makes me appear live on Teams. 55 yrs old and still love a good skive that sticks it to the man….

Still laughing at the look on Clarkson’s face when Victoria Derbyshire deigned to present him with facts. From his actual cakehole. Like a cold bowl of porridge that had a face drawn on it by a spoon.

I’m stating as of today that I’m officially old. Finishing a book off whilst on my break, went to to the toilet with glasses tucked into my sweater. Flushed the toilet. And glasses dropped into the bowl and round the bend. It’s over. No going back from such humiliation.

Dad’s birthday so been round. ‘What did you get?’ Mother answering on his behalf I got him a sweatshirt and a Cannon & Ball cd’ Dad ‘That’s Alfie Boe by the way’ You can’t make up genius like that….

Regardless of whether or not this place generates traction anywhere approaching its ‘predecessor’, to be using a platform that has the sum total of fuck all to do with Leon Skum is wildly invigorating….

Two weeks and counting before I get to see @fontainesdc.bsky.social in Manchester. Sandwiched between Sleaford Mods next week and Idles the week after. Who says I’ve lost it….

Can’t shake the all pervading sense of Deja vu about this place. Definitely feels like I’ve been here before. Let’s hope the denouement is way less unsavoury….
