NP: This Mortal Coil - 'Filigree & Shadow'

This show needs to be shut down right now - it shouldn't be able to survive this. And more broadly, I hope it signals the beginning of the end of shows where people are thrown together in the hope that they'll shag each other and then have dramas. It's a shit, exploitative model that needs to die

Bloody Hell! Loads of celeb birthdays this week! Many Happy Returns, Cher!

"Think back to your childhood. Do you remember when the anxiety started?"

I don't see what you would glean from spying on some rival's training sessions, that you can't easily get from watching videos of that team's competitive games. Such a dumb ass reason to get kicked out of a promotion game you were favourites to win anyway. smh.

I give him until Christmas 2026 😏

Happy Birthday, Grace Jones!! 😍

110 years ago to the day, my grandfather Henri Auclair led his squad in the assault of the "tranchée de la Madone" in Verdun and was met with a barrage of machine gun fire. He was knocked unconscious by one bullet; but saved by his helmet, without which, well, you wouldn't be reading this.

Style Council 'Cafe Bleu' 3 vinyl disc special edition finally gets released this Friday after having to recall the pressings released back in January. I note with no little interest that some miss pressings that made it out into the wild in January are now going for up to 150 quid. 😏

8th May 1970, just days after the Kent State massacre, the Jimi Hendrix Experience performed two shows at the University of Oklahoma. Hendrix dedicated a powerful rendition of "Machine Gun" to the victims of the tragedy. #JimiHendrix

Heard some of Taylor Swifts new album earlier today, and wtf?! 😆

Embracing racism is not a way to restore pride, it’s a way to restore racism. It’s not a path to glory, it’s a path to repressed shame and having to lie to yourself, ever more desperately, about who you’ve become.

I go to parties, sometimes until 4. It's hard to leave when you can't find the door. #JoeWalsh

I'm sure he wouldn't have wanted it any other way. 😏

That 'The Miniature Wife' film looks fucking ghastly. WTF Matthew Macfadyen??!!

Hey @the4ts.bsky.social I just got a DM from you on Twitter Looks dodgy af. Didn't you say you were hacked yesterday?

There’s a dude on instagram listening to his grandfather’s music collection that he inherited. Today it was the 1992, self titled album “Rage against the machine”. Fuck. I’m old.

Yes, Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term “dark matter” which is impressive, but he also coined the term “spherical bastard” to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and I think that should be celebrated more.

Apparently the last time #cfc went 5 straight league losses without scoring was the same year the Titanic went down. So I would reconsider any holiday cruises this year, lads.

The #cfc Board is in session, lads! 🙏🏾

The optics for how the #CFC is being run must be so underwater it would give the late Jacques Cousteau a boner. Any further humiliation at Wembley will surely be the last straw to make this clueless board to rethink their strategy.
