"One who came not to cancel humanity, but to be cancelled in our place"

Sad and infuriating. I've been listening to The Infinite Monkey Cage since it first started broadcasting. The idea that someone like @robinince.bsky.social might not be welcome at the BBC is just maddening.

Lyric video! Here is a new lyric video! The lyrics are kinda cryptic and dark but I came up with a lot of it while walking around the shoe museum in Northampton. So that all probably balances somehow, right? youtu.be/Ryuxt2srXp0

This is the most I have laughed at a Graham Linehan thing for a very long time.

You know wine/food pairings? What about feeling + riff pairings? New album has the following: - Imposter Syndrome + Weird 7/8 riff - Grief + drop D riff in 15/4 - Emotional Risk Taking + twisty drop D riff in 4/4 - Suspecting you might be a psychopath + driving chromatic bass riff

uh oh

Getting into enormous student debt for a top graded anthropology degree that empowers me in such useful and productive activities as watching a bad history documentary and yelling "who the fuck are 'the ancients' you reductive hack" with genuine feeling

I had a dream about you last night. You’ll be hearing from my attorney.

[12hrs into my ice interrogation] agent: in 2021 you posted “they should call him matt hardcock am i right fellas” can you explain that? me: do you know who matt hancock is? a:… [43mins later] a: he had his own app? for parkour? me: no the parkour was a separate issue

Our latest album has been reviewed! "This album is replete with splendid examples of firmly-clamp-your-teeth-together-and-gurn-in-a-mosh-pit, hooky riffagery." I am very happy with that particular sentence. theprogressiveaspect.net/blog/2025/12...

Of course there will be exceptions but as a general rule this is true. Rich people do not do parenting.

Scientists now believe that the human brain--a magic goo for worrying--can also be used to do other things

“Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. But teach a man how to fish and Pete Hegseth will murder him.”

Re-reading Lord of the Rings at the moment, and I'd forgotten how relentlessly Gandalf drags Hobbits. "Of course, The Enemy has overlooked one thing: dipshits such as yourself, Frodo. Buffoons with fat feet and shithole burrows. Yes, perhaps your painful loser energy may surprise Sauron yet!"

hi i'm a billionaire my company, which will definitely not murder everyone, is named SauronMurdersEveryone Inc after the beloved jrr tolkien character sauron whom i have always admired for his disruptive use of world changing technology and for murdering everyone

Comedy - reflecting the time we live in. (That's why they don't like creatives, I assume.)

Today is release day for To Risk Your Heart by my band High Wire Act. It's 9 songs about feelings and loud guitars, and possibly a secret alien but that might be a metaphor. Please have a listen over on bandcamp (or wherever you like to stream music) highwireact.bandcamp.com/album/to-ris...

New album tomorrow! To Risk Your Heart, our album about feelings and stuff. Title track is about taking emotional risks, I Have A Mask is about imposter syndrome, When The Lights Go Out is about ... Erm... Psychopaths. Probably.

Oh yeah, I wrote a blog post about unexpectedly performing at the HRH Prog festival. It is a recreation of the stream of nonsense that was going through my head as I sang my songs, including such thoughts as.... 1/2 tomslatter.co.uk/2025/11/20/h...

Throwback to when I added more sound fx to make this worse.

This photo of Andreza Giant Panda vs Unagi Sayaka is incredible.

Happy International Men's Day

I’m not a great political analyst, but I do feel Labour have made a tactical error by opting to be cunts.

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

Set list for yesterday's unexpected and very enjoyable gig at HRH Prog. Organised of course by subject matter, not song titles. bsky.app/profile/toms...

Terminator starts promisingly, being about two naked men on a quest for some trousers, but then goes off in a different direction that isn't as interesting.

Pre-gig selfie. Off to play an unexpected impromptu acoustic set at the HRH prog festival. This the face of someone who has been ill, hasn't rehearsed and can only remember half his lyrics. What could possibly go wrong?
