Playing the Keith Jarrett Trio at the Blue Note and thought "hang on, I don't remember that bit" and realised it was the young kid wailing downstairs.

As the owner of an independent bookstore, I must ask all of y'all to do the opposite of this forever and ever, amen.

So the the United States Supreme Court has gone from protecting schoolchildren from racism in 1954 to helping to kill them with malnourishment in 2025? And the arc of history bends towards justice, you say?

Day is going in a slightly surreal fashion. Current discussion with Dr Mole relates to Beethoven's fondness (or otherwise) for whoopee cushions.

If you believe either that Franklin discovered the double helix, and / or Watson and Crick stole her data, ask yourself how you know this. Then take a read of this article.

I shouldn't be surprised at the level of scientific ignorance on this site, but sometimes it really makes my head spin 😣

Delight in receiving a mammoth new Gerhard Richter catalogue slightly tempered by finding 16 pages missing and another 16 repeated in their place. Taking the concept of multiples a little too far, I feel. #ArtSky

Lovely message from @neuroblastomauk.bsky.social thanking Alan Carr. Shared on their X. #CelebrityTraitors

Well good morning, Mr Postman.

Clearly, it is unacceptable to remind us that 2005 was 20 years ago, but this is quite fun

I’ve just seen a narrowboat that looks like it’s entirely crewed by cats, and it’s not even 10am

So the most powerful man on earth now needs tacky signs to remind him where his office is. Alllll good then.

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design. news.sky.com/story/the-x-...

Transl: the voters hate what we're doing, so we're gonna have to fix the elections.

Seeing a lot of takes about how Mamdani's win doesn't mean other left candidates should do what he did because it won't necessarily work for them. As opposed to how well chasing the centre-right vote has historically worked? I dunno, man, I think it's worth a pop.

It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

speaks volumes that Trump's response to tonight's resounding defeat is to demand Republicans redouble efforts to rig elections

#NowPlaying I will never tire of this record.

Stereo is back from servicing, yesss 🎶 💿 🎶

Just imagining the crestfallen faces at Reform here. Well done that man 👏👏 Cambridgeshire stabbing attack: ‘heroic’ train worker praised for saving passengers’ lives | UK news | The Guardian share.google/BjI4dU4f2lrK...

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Watching #OnlyConnect - a question pops up: "Werewolves in 1908" Dr Mole: the year they became extinct! Me: Her: oops

Well, no harm to the wallet could occur from buying this, I'm sure...

Apart from a few angry posts on here, why will this be cost free? Where’s the stigma gone? Was it ever a genuine one? Have social norms or the rules changed? This is far from the first time he’s written or said something like this and he’ll be on the BBC again soon.

Next time someone tells you that train drivers "just push buttons" show them this from the BBC

@dmfalconer.bsky.social FYI - time for a rewatch?

London's Hampstead Heath in Autumn

Great investigation of the Nazis, racists and criminals mobilising the flag-on-lamp-posts movement. This is the kind of journalism that the national media could and should have conducted: manchestermill.co.uk/the-men-who-...

Awake at 5am and checking Bluesky, and all the mostly music-chat accounts I follow are talking about baseball. It's like waking into Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

The first (1955) Danish edition of Ray Bradbury’s FAHRENHEIT 451. Later editions did not convert the title, so this is the only SI-compatible edition! 🎢

Fine haul from @kirkdalebooks.bsky.social this afternoon, although the size of that Brautigan book had me leaning at an angle when I left the shop.

Laurence Fox wrote a song about Charlie Kirk, and this is the only comment on it.

Here we bloody go again. Much of BlueSky's success is down to its lack of an algorithm. People can see posts, from the profiles they follow, in the order in which they were posted. WE DON'T WANT THIS GARBAGE.

Well this is massive. One of the very best. www.bfi.org.uk/features/pet...

Oh bravo

I bet he's sweati...oh

Kemi Badenoch is absolutely right about this. At the time she hacked Harriet Harman's emails it was an offence carrying a prison sentence of up to five years

Oh, this is magnificent. From the Earl Hines wiki page:

Hat tip to @jazzsnob99.bsky.social for bringing this one to my attention, which for reasons that passeth understanding I'd never heard before.

#NowPlaying oh yes, more of this please. Thank you, Gary!

I'm dressing up as a forced Windows update when you're about to present at a large Teams meeting.

Definitely a good idea giving the guy who wants a UK civil war access to loads of our phones.

This such a perfect patriotic 🇬🇧 Fleet Street cock-up. It's one thing for a news outlet to be duped by a competent hoaxer. Excruciating, yes, but there's a fairly long history of such fuck ups. But to put out a statement SAYING you'd been hoaxed but you'd actually just emailed the wrong guy?

Fully succumbed to the latest London plague. Insane that we cram ourselves into a subterranean Petri dish brimming with bacteria and infection every single fucking day and yet any suggestion that masks might be a good idea is met with sneering derision

These guys haven't thought very far down the game tree.
