Back once again

WHEN THERE’S TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Oh wow. Yes, very clever! Waterfall treasure! No one’s ever done that before. Lazy jackass WHEN THERE’S NO TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Wow. Too stuck-up to put treasure there huh? Too much of a fucking ICONOCLAST for that? Piece of shit. FUCK you

The hexadecimal code being read out by the Monitor to Adric in Logopolis makes for a playable side-scrolling horse-race game on the ZX Spectrum

Getting colder, so now the cat is living rent free in my bed

I'm not well, so been 'taking it easy'. Watched Netflix "Woman in Cabin 10" to pass the time. Lots of star names, but it fluffs what could be (given the book is well liked) an ok thriller. They drop a HUGE clue early on, flatter the viewer 'yes you are clever to work it out', but it just gets dumber

Fixed a dual fuel radiator, and I am now a master plumber. More importantly, there are warm towels

“What’s the charge? Eating a seal?”

I’ve a few books on the stack before I can get to new Pynchon, but flipping through it to find lolz character names. Boynt Crosstown, Smoky Gooden and Detlef Flaschner zip by

Come And Get It @20 at the end of the week. Cc @whatafuckingrecord.bsky.social

The audience at the Pappy’s show last month was smaller than usual, so maybe that wasn’t the payout he’d banked on

Just made a pizza with pineapple and anchovies on it. fuck the hataz

Sunday

Late birthday presents for me courtesy of book tokens (yes, still a thing)

I appear to be the only person watching Apple TV’s Invasion. And that’s fine. I do not recommend it. No part of it. The London “innit tho” kids in S1 and 2 stood out and kept me in, but even that’s gone. My costs are sunk with just 2 eps away from finishing. Don’t pray for me, I’m already dead bored

Ah my favourite mix

Hats off to SEO master Thomas R Pynchon, whose playful character naming still means that the internet only has one “Zoyd” to tell you about

Always think this is giving the artist their Myers-Briggs “type”

Drive by walk through Tate Modern. Lichtenstein “Whaaam!” and this tower of radios because modern world is confusing and bad

Just downloading a 28 hour audio book as uncompressed WAVs, BRB

Watching Spectre. 1h40m in and realising I have seen it before. Probably a Christmas watch. Really lacking in impact, the whole thing

There's something very "Ford Prefect" about a process that arrives at "Harper Collins" as a sensible name for a pornbot

Tickets still available if you need to check the itinerary and book here entertainers.co.uk/shows/the-ma...

Relatedly, licensing Della Robbia for someone, and really fighting the urge to tell them the IMPORTANT FACT about this typeface

30 years of explaining how font licensing and software piracy works to professional publishers who make their living from selling copyrighted materials

This is a lie. There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years. But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

What next, Rupert the Bear with his cock out?! BAN THIS FILTH

Done the best DIY/house fix thing, which is anything that just needs a spray of WD40

Petition to proscribe The Live Aid Musical as a boomer endeavour

Weekend of youngest’s big birthday breakfasts continues. No streaky bacon to be had, and soc-med photography fail of not pouring drippy maple syrup on first. SORRY

It’s not the first time I’ve pondered could they do Strictly Come Wrestling?

Get this on a T-shirt

Accidentally left 80s #totp on and it was the Birdy Song then Siouxie Sioux and then Legs etc doing Hands up in a burlesque western style. Mad/different times

Bryony is the Master

Violinist line up out for #totp again and they’re keeping a straight face for the single entendres

Getting jiggy with it, oh #totp

Some proper old man shit chat about Ghetto Superstar on the hashtag :-/

Cheers, Billie #totp #spicymezcalita

I applaud @civixplorer for this delightful little bit of flag nonsense.

Started watching Alien Earth, but not sure I’ll carry on tbh

My work gave me a mini bonus for “long service” and I spent some on this, which is very nice indeed

Free sammich day 🎉

I missed this at the time and it fell off Sounds very quickly
