Bloody hell, Small Prophets is fantastic

If Mandelson is a good sport, he'll take the passenger side rear seat and lean back a bit when he's released, as it'll make the photoshopping easier.

“The guy did a great job for a competitive rate. I’m really pleased with it”

Just finished this, We Pretty Pieces Of Flesh. Absolute fucking belter. If you grew up, live or have spent any time anywhere close to Doncaster, read it now. A novel for us.

Watched the first Lord Of The Flies. Bit odd.

The right really are just a bunch of scared babies, aren't they?

UK: Prince Andrew arrested. South Korea: Former President Yoon sentenced for life. Brazil: Former President Bolsonaro serving a 27-year sentence. USA: President Trump demands $10 billion payout from taxpayers.

If this doesn't get the blood pumping, turn yourself off at the wall. Stellar stuff from the mighty Gouge Away. Putting this under @morgyface.bsky.social's nose as well youtu.be/3oIwC41Y1Gk?...

Yes @theflenser.bsky.social I think I will go experience the spiritual sound of ecstatic black metal by the band Agriculture again. Thanks.

Fair to say, I didn't see that coming

What the absolute fuck!

@catalwaysoutside.bsky.social Looks like your dad's got competition

YOUNG MAN what’s that thing that you found, I said YOUNG MAN it’s a leaf on the ground, I said YOUNG MAN it will make a cool sound, when you PUT IT IN YOUR LEAF HOLE [WOMP WOMP WOMP WOMP WOMP] It’s fun to eat a cool LEAF FROM THE GROUND

A couple in the Olympics are ice dancing to I'm Too Sexy by renowned 5G conspiracists Right Said Fred. The commentator just said "Exquisite twizzle sequence". Feel like I've got malaria.

Or, go see one of hundreds of bands playing in one of the hundreds of excellent small venues around the country. Get up close, feel the air move, be a part of something. Fuck stadium gigs - they're dogshit

Nigel Farage tells GB News that Keir Starmer's decision to appoint Peter Mandelson as US ambassador shows his judgement is "seriously wrong" and he should stand down as Prime Minister. Here's what Farage said when Mandelson was appointed

When you think humans aren't capable of getting any worse...

Listening to the best Leonard Cohen album (and it's a very stacked field)

[explaining to a child why they are living in poverty] for every hundredth pint i drink i can get one free pint

How the fucking fuck is it still fucking January?

Oh yeah, gonna get my insides rearranged 🤘

friend of mine is an undocumented immigrant and has been hiding in Melania theaters bc he knows people assume no one is in there

One of my favourite ever records

I ❤️ 👑 KING CARLTON 👑 @sufcofficial.bsky.social

The fearless hunter cat has surpassed herself, bringing home... ....a carrier bag of prawn shells, heads and all. Deeeelicious!

the president wont see your posts making fun of how he's looking these days but your friends whose skin seems to be sloughing off in wet discolored chunks as the psychic weight of their craven wretchedness becomes manifest will

Watched this last night. Fascinating. youtu.be/MhrmiGjHAFE?...

This is totally amazing youtu.be/G26KMZVUA-8?... @theflenser.bsky.social

Please be Dignitas. Please be Dignitas.

Someone I used to work with (and thought was a massive tit) has announced the (sad, obviously) death of her mother on LinkedIn (I know) with this sentence: "As a leader, an entrepreneur and human, I am having to grapple with a devastating rite of passage".

💯

Capitulate now, capitulate forever

I'm also old enough to remember all those who told us Trump would make the world more stable. One year in, he's threatening to destroy an eight decade security alliance, the pillar of Western stability, over not getting an award.

An absolutely barking game of the football

This game is fucking nuts

Why's everyone going on about 2016?

Robert Jenrick: an apology. thecritic.co.uk/fran...

@theflenser.bsky.social Hi guys. Excuse the out-of-the-blue ask, but is there any new Succumb music in the pipeline?

Chappell Roan made a surprise appearance at last night’s Artists For Aid concert in LA, joining Lucy Dacus on a Magnetic Fields classic. stereogum.com/2484832/watc... Organized by Mustafa, the event benefits the Sudanese American Physicians Association and the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund.

First gig of the year last night. An absolute doozy with @slowmassmusic.com and @disciplesofwren.com who I've wanted to see for ages but kept missing. Sublime stuff. Glorious landslides of gloom.

I wouldn’t tell anyone if I won the lottery but there will be signs

If a new app was produced which had, as its core features, the generation of sexual deep fake images of children and calls for a violent global far-right revolution, then not only would it be swiftly banned, but you wouldn't have a single mainstream politician willing to associate themselves with it

Everything is TOTALLY FUCKING AWFUL Cheer up with Greet Death youtu.be/8RXDqFvp62Y?...

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

Telling isn't it that all the "protect our girls" people are still on X despite what Grok is doing.

Tickets snagged for @disciplesofwren.com May I commence the year with glorious misery

Sublime shithousery from the @financialtimes.com 🤌🏽 Who’s who at X, the deepfake porn site formerly known as Twitter: shorturl.at/QkJ5A

Absolutely fucking tremendous from the FT.
