Twice this afternoon I've looked at how far through an album I've been listening to is, been surprised to find it's at least halfway through and confused by how much time has passed as, while clearly I'm drfiting through the day I'm surely not doing so that much. Turns out my itunes was on shuffle

Just realised that this will be my first pride month in years that doesn't involve trying to work out what we can and can't program/say/do without displeasing anyone in senior management and being considered too politcal for a workplace

White Cube Bermondsey be nearer to other stuff challenge

So I had the "this is what the second tattoo should be" revelation last night. Thematically, as in the meaning behind it, it aligns with what the first will be. Need to work out where it should go

*gestures towards the Labour Party*

Earworm

OOIOO, with your band name that sounds like a communications device in Star Trek

I feel like my shoulders are under-appreciated

She blames social media for contributing to her daughther's mental health issues, causing her to become vulnerable and isolated, which lead to her being easy to target. In her mind, no social media access = no mental health issues = wouldn't have been murdered by transphobia

Too hot for rings doesn't apply to thumb rings

He knew that from this moment forward, she’d be the centaur of his universe.

A primarly liquid breakfast*, like the rock god I am * smoothie

- Got called Benjamin Button on WhatsApp earlier lads - Tell us what happened - I got called Benjamin Button on WhatsApp - Ye but why - I was 12 years older than someone who had assumed that I was younger than she is - On WhatsApp? - Yeah it was on WhatsApp

Going to not only get myself back to how much of a bad ass I was before the last few (six?) years ran me down, but become even more of a bad ass than I was, and then it's going to be over for all you motherfuckers

Not to say that I overthink things but apparently I'm going to spend today considering a quandary to which I know I already instinctively made the right decision

I see people who were complaining about the Observer are still reading the Observer

*having an emo moment without the emo* I'm learning how to be here and nowhere else How to focus on what I can do myself

Shame I'll never know what, according to journalists and various other media types, the problem with bluesky is as, once they try to tell us, I block them the first time they get QTed into my feed so as to not have to see them appear there over and over again

YOU’RE LISTENING TO SISYPHUS FM, THE HOME OF NON-STOP ROCK

Waking earworm

At t least it looks like I'm living in the right borough (and voted for the right mayor of that borough)

#LastFourWatched #LetterboxdFriday

Curious to hear how removing, among other things, safe access to public bathrooms doesn't further marginalise an already marginalised community

"Why should we hire you to be our ventriloquist?" "Well, my resume speaks for itself."

Went back to Tracey Emin yesterday, free of the ridiculous crowds that it had two months ago, and therefore actually able to read the text-only work, and also get into the room with the main video piece (Tracey Emin talking about her pregnancy and abortion)

The news is, clearly, a complete clusterfuck of stress and anxiety that is going to be doing so much damage to mental and emotional wellbeing but, and I realise this is easier to say than do, please go do something, or least think about something, that gives you joy

So I didn't really see any news yesterday and waking up today to see what has happened and the disparity between that and what's going on in my life away from all the evil bullshit feels like fucking whiplash

UK Tubi has a load of Morten Media films, and they're all ultra-low budget rope-your-friends-in-and-don't-care-if-their-acting-isn't-up-to-much-because-it's-alll-about-making-something and pretty great in a cheesy fun way

Just remembered the correct answer to who next Bond should be, only from photos already on your phone from the other day. A fine choice

Feel like Eat Girls are the most Brighton band to not actually be from Brighton

I struggle to distinctly remember novels after the fact, and loads of novels by the same author blur together in my head. Let's go with: Siri Hustvedt - What I Loved James Ellroy - LA Confidential Gaston Leroux - The Phantom Of The Opera

Critters 2 time (for when you're cheating on Critters)

What's the best Smashing Pumpkins song, and why is it Lou Reed's Sword Of Damocles

rude. in my day we called that Italo-disco.

*taps the sign* 👇

She's a 10, but it's the number of books on the Guardian's top 100 books list that she's read

But are these 100 books gluten-free?

you're telling me six teens painted this chapel

Baby's first Jean Rollin movie

When will my contact lens come back from the deepest recess of my eye

When Bluesky doesn't like my posts...

Still bangs

Fuck you weather

A goofy folk horror-looking motherfucker of a caterpillar

If the biohacking billionaires really wanted to improve humanity, they'd find a way for us to grow a third arm. It would help when it comes to doing up the clasp on bracelets, and we'd buy more bracelets and rings, use up more nail polish and get more tattoos so capitalism could have a treat as well
