What an impossibly ungracious man he is, really. It’s not news, of course, but he does somehow have the ability to be so uncouth, so impolite, that it really takes your breath away.

Does Tylenol cause autism? Did Bella Hadid give me Limes Disease? Is the Cookie Monster my biological father?

If you need a quick antidote this morning, here's a piece I wrote about how David Lynch fans tend to be the nicest, most creative and interesting people you'll ever meet. www.timeout.com/news/log-lad...

I’m no expert but I would’ve got a person to do it.

Man cannot live by custard alone. This did not stop me from trying. First week in hospital, post-amputation: catheters, six-packs, droids, and an exercise in concentrated living. tomstaniford.substack.com/p/18-hospita...

Starmer's anti-immigrant speech today wasn't just a moral and political embarrassment. It was also an intellectual embarrassment. inews.co.uk/opinion/star...

Brilliant news on a Friday afternoon: gov will launch new natural history GCSE. It's taken Mary Colwell, @carolinelucas.bsky.social & others years of campaigning. (I'm praying it'll be introduced quickly enough for my children!) www.theguardian.com/environment/...

One of the final items to be rescued from the house clearance. This 1940s Bush PB 12 Tabletop Valve Radio was hidden under some boxes in the garage. As a kid, I remember my brother and I rigged it up in the loft with an extension cable to listen to Radio Luxembourg in our makeshift den. 📻 1/2

The lost Shirley Bassey photo. I'd briefly glimpsed this when searching for important documents after Mum passed away in May last year. I struggled to find it again until I started the clearance. We'd not seen it before. It's dated 1957, so my Mum would have been 18yrs old. #DameShirleyBassey

Another find from the first few days of the house clearance. There was a lot of music memorabilia. These youngsters had not long hit the scene with their debut album. Today Magazine Dated September 1963. #Beatles #Memorabilia

I found it difficult to start clearing the house after my mom died last May. I knew it had to be done. I'd decided on a plan to clear one room at a time starting upstairs. One of the very first things I found was this. The Daily Herald from on this day, Saturday, November 1963. 61yrs ago. #JFK

I might do a mega thread of all the weird & wonderful stuff I've stumbled across whilst clearing my late parents house. It's taken a year to go through everything. There was so much! I've done my best to keep stuff from going to landfill. It was also my childhood home. Very strange to see it empty.

Hello @huwiceandstuff.bsky.social 👋🏻🪼🐙🪸❄️

Another wonderful thing about migrating to bluesky is that I'm discovering new things/accounts/people I'd not been aware of on the other place. Very much enjoying curating my little corner. I am very grateful for those building starter packs or highlighting their peers. 🙏🏻 🙌🏻 ✨️

Weather report from #Shetland. Sideways snow ❄️

Kids, on Fridays, remember the old Greek drinking adage... Red wine - sip two glasses as your book you read. White wine - drink two bottles in 45 minutes, call a dealer and some escorts, burn your house down and hospital you will need.

Jill Bryson: 'That's me with Edwyn Collins from Orange Juice and Alan Horne of Postcard Records. That's early, that's probably 1981, before Strawberry Switchblade. That's outside Postcard Records, I lived round the corner.' (Pic ©️ Peter Anthony McArthur, used with permission) #StrawberrySwitchblade

We really need Orkney library to join at this point.

When I left home at 17, all I took with me were my records, a few books, and my Polaroid600 camera. I sofa surfed for the next few years while trying to study art at college. Music remained a constant. A warm retreat and a non judgemental friend. Here's 5 that have been permanent fixtures. #Music

Whenever I moved to a new place, I used to have a little wall shrine where I'd put up stuff I really liked. Like a moodboard. Helped with inspiration and was a good conversation starter when I got vistors. So, by way of introduction, here's 4 film stills that featured heavily. Big influences. #Films
