Here's that video of the entirety of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band done in a Final Fantasy VII soundfont you were looking for.

I forgot to share any of it on here so far (bc my mental health has been, quite frankly, in tatters this month tbf) but I have a YouTube playlist of my 26 (AND COUNTING!) songs for each day of January here: youtube.com/playlist?lis...

1000xResist is bloody good then eh

This was the tenth year of Cities and Memory, and I’m enormously proud to look back at the amazing things that happened this year, and hugely thankful to everyone who helped to make it possible - especially the wonderful artists who make up our global community 💕🎧 citiesandmemory.com/2025/12/revi...

I keep thinking about this. I was talking to a journalist friend about Project 2025, and he was saying how so much of it is being executed with frightening efficiency. And it is all the more frustrating because everyone with the power to stop it was so thoroughly and repeatedly warned.

Santa Is Now Using AI

taking a break from posting my Final Fantasy character names to share my NEW CHRISTMAS SONG - it's really MISERABLE and the title is QUITE SARDONIC! Down some nog while listening www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSd8...

oh boy tough choice between the industry that brings life affirming joy and insights on the human condition, and the industry that is singlehandedly accelerating the worst aspects of late capitalism

A cool hundred quid says that there'll be a dance party in the new Animals Farms film with a rooster DJing or something

"so james when am I getting dead great-grandchildren then?"

HELVETICA IS MY WIFE

amidst all the talk of calibri and times new roman, we're ignoring the unshowy beauty of HELVETICA

An Inconvenient Truth (2006)

In general (speaking of my day job working in video for a specific sector), I winged it based on pursuing my creative interests and then made some work friends who helped me out and so on and so forth

Serious former PM lore in my playthrough of Final Fantasy VII

yo Alexa my home dog check out this final fantasy character I just named "Keir Starmer" addressing this other final fantasy character I just called "Milhouse" Ha ha ha James, I wish I were real so we could truly enjoy this moment together (rest of post censored as per the Online Safety Act)

autechre and lenin in russia 1994

Joyce Carol Oates owned Elon so hard he's spent the last day posting about movies he hasn't seen in 15 years

the new John Lewis advert somehow straight up rips one of the most heartbreaking scenes in film of this decade (from Aftersun) and then just makes it shite

me flirting

I try to record a Halloween song every year and, this year, you can hear me cover one of the unsettlingly horny folk songs from 'The Wicker Man' (there *is* an audience for that, right?) www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nxi...

so much for these Amazin' web services amirite

The whole British government and media loves Maccabi Tel Aviv fans! The far right football fans that love to cause violence! *5 minutes later* We regret to inform you the Maccabi Tel Aviv fans are far right and have caused violence

WHEN THERE’S TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Oh wow. Yes, very clever! Waterfall treasure! No one’s ever done that before. Lazy jackass WHEN THERE’S NO TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Wow. Too stuck-up to put treasure there huh? Too much of a fucking ICONOCLAST for that? Piece of shit. FUCK you

“I’m old enough to remember when mainstream British politicians, who should know better, stirred up racial hatred as a path to power. You’re old enough to remember too because it was last Tuesday. And it was Robert Jenrick” Cathartic anger at flag-flying racism. www.thenerve.news/p/stewart-le...

looking at the fog outside this morning

This kind of thing never fails to crack me up

Autism is not a disease. You can’t cure autism. "Some people don’t care what we want. They want a cure for autism, and they spend a lot of time and money looking for it. This is bad for autistic people. People should spend time and money helping us live good lives." Words by @autisticadvocacy.org.

Silent Hill fergalicious

guys guys they mentioned Lichfield and Disco Elysium on University Challenge

completed Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

Keep thinking about this bit from @garbageday.email. "The American right wing finally gets to be the victims they’ve always seen themselves as."

nice

im just off to the metaverse, can I get anyone anything

they should hang something cool off lamp posts like the album cover of In the Wake of Poseidon by King Crimson

its funny to be ruled by internet-brained idiots like this, when anyone with a passing familiarity of this internet political moment knew instinctively this was going to be an incoherent brain rotted gamer white boy who sees politics and violence as entertainment

I have every bit as much compassion for Charlie Kirk being shot by some random person as he would have if it had been me.

Where are These New Puritans and Caroline, you Mercury Prize cowards

There's a Popeye's opening in my town and a.) I thought the logo was a chicken, not the big man himself, b.) his pipe is sticking out of a separate hole in his chin? That's 🤖 right?

A work in progress list of films that actually feel like weird fiction, as opposed to just horror movies or ghost stories. Unsettling. Uncanny. Unresolved. boxd.it/NXd38

It's a little reported upon bit of music fact but it's interesting how many of the "90s bands going big on TikTok" (yr Slowdives, yr assorted American slowcore bands) are the sort of bands that were pretty big on the old mp3 blogs

Anyone who pays the least attention to what he's been posting and doing over the last few years can immediately see that he's motivated entirely by bitterness, hatred, and is just frankly really unwell. Framing him as anything other than pitiable and contemptable is just totally irresponsible afaic

guys guys they mentioned Earthbound / Mother on University Challenge
