Are there influencers who post about going to Davos as if they were going to Cannes?

i think the only type of 'doom scrolling' i ever do and feel sorta bad about after is looking at people getting mad about cycle lanes being installed online and thinking to myself damn man you're a real car shagger

what if instead of silent hill it was slint hill and instead of pyramid head you fought off guitar riffs

hell yeah youtu.be/o8qSuuByBp0

come say hi: discord.gg/AbU5BkeC

it's quite funny how ineffective the 'who to follow' feature on here is... so who to follow?

why does every pub and shop ask you 'is that all' nowadays despite you clearly having stopped speaking?

what's the worst band name you've seen in recent years?

love to live in a city where you can run into people you know and exchange a friendly greeting in the street!!!

pitchfork user reviews will end up being the same as this btw, it'll just be people posting.

stuff only running in CI is a nightmare for extending the feedback cycle of changes, even worse when you end up having to wait for a build pipeline to complete

i'd like to do a radio show one day i never have had the chance really. always seems to be a weird clique to get into though.

I have never wanted to ask Rovo AI anything about anything. Let alone use Jira or Confluence...

went to the pub (for @43081j.com birthday) yesterday and it was so nice being in a pub that felt active in a way I've not seen a pub for years in Leeds at least

I don't think on any social media I've ever wanted to import contacts to find people to follow

first longish bike ride of the year done :-)

for anyone in Leeds, I'm running a house show at the start of Feb. Come to it and RSVP through the site below: snufk.in/carroll,-stillabower,-windsor-gig

Bandcamp in their blog about AI generated music: > With this policy, we’re putting human creativity first Meanwhile on the front page there's been an AI-generated album cover for a month and a half as their 'album of the day'? blog.bandcamp.com/2026/01/13/k...

one of the best things everything but the girl did and they did al lot of good stuff youtu.be/ZwpcmSsr0Bs?...

10,000 input mixer

feel like a lot of modern pop producers should start considering that people want to hear vocal performances and not a set of processes applied to vocal performances that make them sound 'shiny' or 'tight' or something

something vile about these robots, apparently they're programmed to say thanks and sing jingle bells and stuff if you help them get unstuck. they also block footpaths for wheelchair users etc.

'the traitors' is just televised mafia ? lol

every time i have the misfortune of clicking on a letter boxed link it's full of people trying to post in the reviews. at least RYM has people doing earnest attempts at reviews. perhaps because they have a seperate 'comment' box for non-review content.

if you don't know about 123rollenbaan it's a buisness who posts youtube video demos of their conveyor belts they sell. this is my favourite of their videos I've seen so far, but there's so much more to see!!! youtu.be/E46CgmY-5uI

The saxophone was already invented during the American Civil War, there's a picture of a Confedereate Musician with a Saxohorn on wikipedia. Blows my mind. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musicia...

bought some oolong 'milk' tea and oh my god you smell it and it's exactly like condensed milk

could somebody please massage my neck thanks. don't think i can get it with the foam roller...

thanks UPS for not even trying to deliver my package then deciding the thing I wanted most was for it to be delievered to a corner shop a 20 minute walk away

I was cycling home yesterday and I heard a noise, looked and a giant fix had jumped on the wall next to me and was clearly startled by me.

lead singer of a band called 'chester draws'

couple of posters i made for gigs in #leeds

they're letting me play at the city museum for some reason

Guinness is just John Smith's but dark

when we talk about twitter at work we have started to do the crossed arm thing like we're straight edge or something

field recording album of the sound only of a windshield / deadcat being hit with wind

not being on call for work feels so good i can just sleep and not have the anxiety of being woken up even if i've mostly gotten over it

mini eggs already in the shops. soon we will have a blurry festivity that spans across the whole year, unity at last.

enjoying thinking about the idea of a gig where it's dark in the room vs a gig where everyone in the room is blindfolded

I read eBooks not because they are more convenient but because I find the historical baggage of labour related to book binding, the physical form of the novel as problematic. Luckily eBooks have none such issues of this kind.

this is why they pay me the big bucks in the Leeds music scene

There's a sort of breathlessness that the 'art world' keeps up it's sort of a similar fakeness feeling to what I think pastoralism felt like in the French court where you have this unreal vividness of 'real life'. Even just in titles of work, bios, etc.

I think about 50% of people who want to book a gig with me right now are playing the accordion, very strange. Is 2026 the year of the accordion in experimental music?

I feel like the internet has forgotten about the word 'lying' and just uses 'gaslight' at every opportunity now.

Bandcamp's 'album of the day' has been a metal album with a shitty AI-generated cover for almost a month now. Nice

this specific 'a frame' is the subject of my ire totally and I think it and it's ilk are strong contributors to people's general lack of accessibility in the UK's outside spaces.

i think the strongest creative force of the late 2020s will be being idiomatic over any sort of technical skill as we move towards the automation / regurgitation style of big AI companies getting 'better' at stuff like image generation / music generation

this is the most horrendously drawn wheelchair sign I've seen in my life

hey look it's 2026 tomorrow, check out what was nice in 2025 according to me snufk.in/2025-in-review
