My last trip with my dad was to Orkney. To think there were seals doing this somewhere near us is 😘👌

It is indescribably sad that, if you exploit “essentially all music files of reasonable quality that are accessible on the open Internet” without paying the musicians behind them - and create a model that can compete with those musicians - this is how you are rewarded

The age of 'art' (music, images, anything) being all about obscuring / confusing any overt meaning is dead. We need art that says EXACTLY what it means in the most incisive, transmissible and elevating way.

Music is basically a detective novel where the musicians are the suspects/criminals, the listener is the detective and of course the music is the crime. The listener tries to determine what happened and what was the motivation, while the musicians try to obscure this, so they can get away with it.

I’ve been getting a montage of weird London semi-apocalypse kind of stuff. Often involving hybrid transport systems spanning road, rail, water and air. Not gonna even try to decode it all

oh dear lord no no no

Just discovered 2yo daughter in bed fast asleep wearing one of my old backstage pass lanyards.

This is still the slappiest slappy shouty 303

This might be the first spy who appears to be literally wearing one of those 'spy disguises' you could pick up in a joke shop in Newquay in 1993.

Convinced that most political isms and dichotomies are distraction bait that keep us distracted from organising to make things better. Don't just do something - talk about it!

First time on trick or treat door duty. I fear this might be a bit… extra

Wild dream last night about London’s new ‘Max’ tube line. Main station is Trombobo which is disused coal mine meets concrete formwork with gas fire pits embedded in the walls. It’s got a lake, an actual skibidi toilet and occasionally leaks sewage from the walls.

ICYMI you can now download the demo of Finalist. Getting tons of messages from people who are using it to either get off the hook for mixing, or accelerating production workflows. Grab the demo at www.timexile.com/finalist

As a customer, you have one job. That is to enter your email address correctly.

This is such solid advice!

Writing a future note to a 16-month old who just lost his dad. Where do you even start? By sharing their gofundme.

Every pound of so-called “government debt” is a private financial asset. When the government spends, it creates money that becomes your wealth. Yet politicians pretend debt is a burden, and that is just wrong. youtu.be/lixZeo_jn-k?...

ICYMI Green Party membership numbers have now overtaken the Conservative Party's! 🎉 📈 125,000 members and counting.

We’ve got the glass half-empty / half-full the wrong way round. Half-empty is better than empty. It’s optimistic. Half-full is worse than full. It’s pessimistic.

Morning Miss Marple, how’s the leg?

I hereby nominate "Morning Miss Marple, How's The Leg?" as the correct thing to say when you want to evade the subject of a conversation.

The delightful cultural moment that keeps giving

Fresh, line-caught gem par excellence. Catch of the day!

This really is legendary stuff

I have so many dark horse friends who about 20 mins into a casual chat they're like oh hey I did this thing it's not out yet and hoooooooooLY (Looking at you @stevejones.music)

Reverb nerds - has anyone ever made a reverb with granular diffuser delays? Basically getting around the ringing problem with diffusers that change length by random amounts at regular (or irregular?) intervals.

I could watch Zack Polanski utterly wreck Zia Yusuf ALL DAY LONG.

The greatest peril of our time is how similar 🤞,☝️and🖕look vs how different their meanings are

My new resolution is to scarper from conversations I'm not into as snappily as podcasters take a break. Will probably just go and watch some adverts while I do too. Palette cleanser.

For any guys on here who’ve lost their dad, go read BT (Brian Transeau) ‘s exquisite eulogy to his recently passed dad on Insta. What an inspiration that man is. www.instagram.com/reel/DPM-x7a...

TIL the default font in gmail 'Sans Serif' literally doesn't exist in google docs. Is this on purpose to catch out sneaky template pasters?

This is the way. Go to the ends of the earth to make your own distribution channels. So much more magic to be made that way.

Still, I’ve seen what small positive contributions can do. I want everyone to have that feeling that comes with making an impact, no matter how small. I also want people to know what it feels like when a community has their back.

Thanks for this thread! Particularly the message about positive action. I see people who’ve been so mad for so long, it’s hard to think in terms of pushing in the opposite direction. I’ve definitely been there!

A bit giddy about this ngl! Always wanted to be vocal about the things I believe in but never shuffled my bum off the top of the slide. Well on my way down now though, so here are some thoughts on how Z-list culture people like me (and you?) can use our micro-platforms to make change happen. 1/9

Just fired a mailer out to 27k people about why I joined the Green Party. Feels good man.

2024 - joined Bluesky 2025 - joined the Greens 2026 - switch networks to Orange?

Heartbreaking news of a friend who looked like he was going to make it through cancer but didn't. All unravelled in a day. Yesterday. I was lucky, he wasn't. Please please pease donate to their gofundme. I just gave again. I cannot imagine what it must be like for his family right now.
