Must investigate this! Of interest to you too, @mole9.bsky.social?

It's Glastonbury time again...

I reckon this’ll appeal, @shirley-sings.bsky.social

There comes a moment when you realise your weirdness is you strength. Lean into it. There comes a moment when you realise you are Fully-grown Changeling. Celebrate it. We are strange and we are here.

More Just For Phil posts! It even has a coin!!! Thinkin' 'bout Rome again.

Julianna Barwick and Mary Lattimore discuss 'Tragic Magic', recorded on vintage instruments from the Musée de la Musique, the guilt and gratitude of leaving a burning city for Paris, and a shared dream of one day playing in James Turrell's Roden Crater. "Come Join Us Here in the Future":

We were waiting when the signal died Open hearted all & starry-eyed Earth will rise again & grace abide See you on the other side We see your courage take the kindest ride Here to meet you with our arms spread wide Earth will rise & grace abide See you on the other side © Talis Kimberley 2026 3/3

I saw an ebay listing for a used stereo. As-Is: $1 - plays at full volume only. I thought to myself, I can't turn that down.

Pedophile Distraction War would be a great name for a punk band. But yeah, fuel prices are a little nuts up here atm.

Your TV can watch what you watch, but not in a cool way. Here are the details on Automatic Content Recognition and how to turn it off. I hate that this is a thing. It shouldn't be a thing. www.pcmag.com/explainers/y...

I'm so looking forward to this conversation with my dear friend and colleague @amalelmohtar.com. If you're in Glasgow, or anywhere near, please join us on Tuesday, 7 April, at Waterstones Argyle Street.

The French reluctance to adopt English terms and create their own has made for some very odd online language (téléchargement, anyone?) but internaute(s) for people online is *delightful*.

Not been this excited about a gig for a LONG time 😃

New #UrbanPrehistory blog post - 'Lush prehistory'. Would you like a small cup-and-ring marked stone to be gently rubbed back and forth against your jowls? Well you can now, for £150. Thanks @eddiecstewart.bsky.social! theurbanprehistorian.wordpress.com/2026/03/09/l...

Well, this is a hell of a story, spinning out from that weird viral sea shanty trend from the pandemic. magazine.atavist.com/2026/sea-sha...

this year in canada and the us, international women’s day is only 23 hours long, and wow what a symbolic statement that makes

okay, Ill bite. What do you think the point of reading for and writing a literature review is? The process of reading and writing is crucial for THINKING. Your ideas are shaped by all of this, offloading it to gAI, no matter how "good" you think gAI is at it defeats the purpose entirely.

Saying the quiet part out loud again. Honestly this was my first guess as to the reason for all this. It’s theologically bollocks, obviously.

How cool was Éliane Radigue. Sad to hear she's left us. elianeradigue.bandcamp.com/album/trilog...

Ah that’s sad. I only discovered her work in the last few years, but loved what I heard 🙁

This. We are fond of our police procedurals, but now they all have the whiff of “copeganda”. You watch re-runs of Law and Order, say, and cant help but notice the rot was always there, endemic.

A fantastic tribute in the Ross-shire journal to our friend Shân Tunsley, who died suddenly in January. www.ross-shirejournal.co.uk/news/tribute...

I thought it might be funny to write a little jingle about where you can hear my music and have that as the only song on Spotify but that’s basically making a Spotify exclusive track ironically.

We owe a duty to the stories to not only tell them, but to think of them and upon them. To remember where they came from and understand where they are going.

I have a theory that if you’re in a gallery and there’s only you looking at a painting, then it’s yours. You own it for those few minutes. No one else is using it.

This is a very, very good idea. I've already had older tracks uneditable because they won't open in older unsupported Noire and Kontakt versions. Only plugin ever to experience this with. The epitome of software enshittification.

I'm trying a new "see how well AI image gen is" test. This time I'm going to ask it to draw a map of the world, and then zoom in to Europe, the UK, Yorkshire and York to see when things start to get hazy. All of these are with the free models using the smart/thinking variants. 1/n

Here’s a short poem about the power of poetry to change the world.

Sad news indeed. A phenomenal musician.

Morning

And thou mayest aske thyself, 'How do Ich werke thys?' And thou mayest aske thyself, 'Wher ys that large destrier?' And thou mayest telle thyself, 'Thys nys not my beautiful castle!' And thou mayest telle thyself, 'Thys nys not my swift goshawk!'

Follow up: this is very effective at stopping the doomscrolling. I’ve blocked Bluesky, Instagram, Discord etc on my phone between 0800 and 1800. There has also been a concomitant improvement in angst levels. The “filling the time with useful stuff” is still a work in progress, but: getting there!

Pretty much how I view “tracking” vs “mixing”

We have been out this evening to our local makeshift cinema to see this very film. Many spirits were lifted 🕺💃🪩

Morning.

Too many funerals of late, but this one hits hard and hits strange. Iain was a whirlwind and sharing a stage with him was an experience. He was a genius fiddler and a great guitarist- I could find myself losing my place in a song because I got wrapped up in what he was playing. Slàn abhaile… 🥃

I'm beginning to suspect this Donald Trump chap might be a bit of a cad.

Again. Remember the role of Surrealists in fighting fascism. Feed your soul.
