Adding "nationally published music photographer" to my CV now Nation Cymru has picked up this photo I posted to Flickr under a CC license 11 years ago.

Tired: Getting my affairs in order Wired: Preparing for a new era of martyrdom

when you’re low on special weapons in Worms Armageddon

Headlines in two weeks: Brazil's Bolsonaro hospitalised with severe eye strain

Been messing around with different ways of faux-Gameboy Camerafying my photos and I think I like this one.

Trump has no clue who that bald guy is.

Nicolás Maduro and his court-appointed lawyer.

Some photos from y Bannau this weekend north of Ebbw Vale.

It rarely shows up on camera, but I caught the thought bubble that's usually next to Llechen's head when she looks at me.

It's December so I've gone through my Lightroom catalogue to pick my favourite photos of the year. Organised loosely by genre/subject matter. 1/3

One of the ways Twin Peaks has changed me is that I will sometimes look for numbers in the environment.

It's not very reassuring when the BBC's source on a story about online misinformation is a chatbot. www.bbc.com/news/article...

My immediate reaction to Metroid Prime 4 is that it's not a Prime game. Why? Well, there's more than a couple of factors

I have no idea who these Swedish artists are and YouTube Music won't tell me.

I didn't follow the Elon Musk defamation trial very closely but I think it established that it's okay to call this Reform donor a paedophile.

An average squad number of 56 for the Cardiff City squad tonight against Arsenal. American football numbers.

Just no room for whimsy on the Welsh high street these days.

I have been a fan of Clipping for a while but I've only just clocked with this Tiny Desk concert that they're a skiffle band.

I look forward to the newsreaders referring to him as "Andy Windsor" like they're spokespeople for Republic.

I've been waiting for Nebraska 82 specifically for the electric version of Atlantic City. The early versions of Born in the USA are really interesting to hear, too. music.youtube.com/watch?v=8go2...

Under the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992, every trade union gets six air-to-surface missile strikes if 50%+1 of the membership authorises it in a ballot.

For years, British politicians have been using the dual-loyalty canard to conflate the interests of British Jews with those of the government of Israel. I didn't think you could also do that with a football team.

I'm surprised "have you tried going for a walk while you're on this years-long waiting list?" works that well.

Nuissance obstacles in road delay innocent bus passengers.

It could hover.

I got to see @loscampesinos.bsky.social for the fourth time last night and in their platonic ideal venue, the Cardiff Students Union. Best they've ever been.

Kazuma Kiryu's let himself go.

I wrote a formula in PowerBI today that I know will break in the year 3000 and that's annoying me far more (a little) than it should be (not at all).

Reminder that the entire modern anti-vax movement was created by a guy who first licensed all the separate components of a singular breakup of MMR vaccines and then fabricated a study saying the MMR vaccines caused autism. This is Andrew Wakefield's dream fully come true.

She has no clue how that thing works.

I feel like I'm going crazy because I thought Peter Mandelson was appointed precisely because he was a corrupt sycophant who loves paedophiles. Keir Starmer wanted someone who could have a good relationship with Trump and he had the perfect guy for that.

There is no acceptable political violence, with the following exceptions:

I don't really know who Charlie Kirk was and any British person who did before yesterday is highly sus.

America's going to learn nothing from the English Civil War and end up with Don Jr as the president in a few years.

One more from London at the start of the summer.

Sure, let's get into some vexillology! Here's a short quote about flags for your interview: "I'm very encouraging of flags. I think they're patriotic and a great symbol of our nation." Would you like to hear more about flags?

He's doing his best to make the Donald Trump thing real.

Really fucking annoying that Labour has decided the answer to Deliveroo's fleet of illegal motorbikes is to round up foreigners.

Patient, sobbing: But Doctor, I AM Pagliacci! ChatGPT: Apologies. I didn't realise when recommending Pagliacci's epic show to cure your depression that you were the genius himself. I'm impressed! With regards to your initial question, I can recommend seeing the Great Clown Pagliacci.

“Uh, no, when you were on the roof they were shouting ‘Trump! Trump!”

Okay. I will simply visit France and see one of their Statues of Liberty instead.

2004-2005

The closest to street photography I've ever been. Two other guys with cameras and the same idea came down these stairs while I was waiting for someone to walk by.

First time I've been to the Millennium since Wales vs Spain. Lots of away fans seem to have got tickets in the Kendrick end.

This guy practically came up and posed for me.
