Nice and Easy #LFC

I hope all the vinyl heads who brave the queues get the vinyl they want #RecordStoreDay

We're 3 months into the new year. What's everyone's choice for word of the year? Mine: "grift"

I just followed @hillaryclinton.bsky.social

Matthew Good Band (apologies, I didn't realize it was the person's family name, but I still haven't listened to it)

Opening soon

I echo these sentiments

Here’s the real danger of using Signal for a group chat on national security issues.

Does your label know what happened to the UK Subs?

I like it. I only knew the one song by them about Superman.

This Stephen Sondheim song sounds like the story of my dating life. “Sorry-Grateful nails the typifying New York gesture of looking over the shoulder of the person you’re with to see if there mightn’t be someone more interesting standing behind them." (from the NY Times)

I hope they had a good laugh on seeing each other at least. “What followed was far from pleasant,” Gibbs said. “Two police officers escorted me to another section of LAX, where I found Stefan and Marc already detained in a cold holding pen.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Yes to Dan Burn #EngAlb

There's some poopy puns in the comment section to this article about "the London flats pushing raw sewage into the Thames" www.londoncentric.media/p/revealed-t...

Operation Mincemeat opens tomorrow on Broadway for a 16 week run. How will it do? It's a small cast. The theatre is twice as large as in London. The humour is foreign to American audiences. A lot of fans are flying over to cheer it on. I predict success.

I'd say it'd be more expensive for each of the King's bulbs, and with all the bulbs he's got, it adds up. "Over a year, leaving a lightbulb permanently switched on could result in expenses between $73 and $7.30." www.ukenergywatch.org/how-many-wat...

It looks like it shouldn't be possible.

I'm wondering why they've left the Ukranians out of this picture. (The Russians and Americans met in Saudi Arabia on February 18, 2025 to discuss the end of the war in Ukraine)

There’s actually a woman dressed in white almost dead centre in the background (over the left shoulder of the Russian with the black suit and blue tie).

She sent a letter informing people they were fired because they were underperforming, and then she made a social media video in her office to show off her skirt. I see nothing wrong with that. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/12/u...

TOP TIP: If you are going to travel in the USA, take a train. Or a bus. Or walk. Actually, just don't travel to the USA. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is interesting for me, as I'm reading On the Origin of the Species for the first time "....the fossil suggested “an earlier migration event, preceding that of Homo antecessor, and raises new questions about the complexity of early human settlement in Europe” www.thetimes.com/uk/science/a...

Clever use of the word "yellow" three times.

Sorry Sadiq, but "inspiring" is not the word I'd use to describe this.

a warm day in Rio with a little cloud cover would be right for me today.

I find it hard to believe that the Guardian article on #InternationalWomansDay protests did not mention the women marching in France. There's also very little mention of it on BlueSky, although some there are some links to videos on Threads www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...
