Think this is being televised at some point soon, somehow I have to resist going to BBC Sounds and listening in the meantime. www.bbc.co.uk/events/ed5fbp

wow, as many as dozens! but yeah I am 40 soon and it will also affect me because of the age verification nonsense. play that game with someone else.

Oh no :( I guess we have to take down all of the flags now 💔

Recently discovered Morrissey Mullen and wondering where this band has been all my life... one of the biggest discoveries this year. Obsessively digging all their albums now, absolute kryptonite. youtu.be/OLdfc7m-fiQ?...

I didn't mind checking out the AI music you generated per your request, I even thought it was kind of cool, but you lost me when you said "thanks." Thanks for what, exactly?

Ah, it's you again. Still here. Still not paying any rent. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHEl...

Girlmode DOOM. Kawaii DOOM.

I wonder if this year's heatwaves end up besting 1976...

The worst part about shopping for hifi gear is eventually you have to turn up at the hifi place and ask for demonstrations with ur cringe music taste. It's like those dreams where you are up on stage only wearing your underwear. + Also the masking that accompanies every social occasion anyway.

I'll definitely read bluesky takes about an ongoing police investigation into the death of a well known UK political figure, I bet they won't be facefirst into cowshit-tier idiotic.

looking into bookshelf speakers. I have no better ideas. I have been using Creative Inspire 5.1 PC speakers for 22 years, they're honestly decent and still work well, wouldn't throw them away, but I have them connected to a Hi-Fi amp via line cable from its headphone port... which isn't ideal.

guize... what do I want for my birthday? It's a significant birthday. tell me what I want. I'm serious. I have no idea.

It's a very nice gesture by the great british public, putting up St. George & Union flags on every lamppost in the country to support all our drivers at the Silverstone GP this weekend.

lol

July the 4th be with you... wait, that's not it... Remember remember the 4th of July... erm, not that either... Ah! The eleventh hour of the fourth day of the seventh mo- okay, I give up, help me out here.

Silverstone GP weekend <3

I thought something was up. I have rarely had to deal with mosquitos where I live, almost never. I have had five bites and killed two in the last week. www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...

Such a cool release - Incognito's "lost" second album. Probably as good as their debut. thewarriorsuk.bandcamp.com/album/behind...

you know that really cool song that you love? what if its tempo was reduced by a third, and the layers were stripped down to just some twee, ponderous piano chords and a breathy female vocalist? you'd love that wouldn't you, that's your favourite thing.

wondering whether I should buy a USB extension cable so that I can physically unplug and replug my fucky mouse when its firmware crashes (best guess) rather than scrambling under the desk and feeling for USB ports I can't see, or whether I should just buy another basic mouse for the same meagre sum.

36°C today. Feel for those on the continent who are getting shagged by 40°C+, and likely no air conditioning same as us My solution is to drink hobgoblins until I no longer care about the heat. Accept the sweat, wee morsel, for it is your fate.

Today is a fine day to have a post-father's day get together and barbecue. A masterstroke of planning. At least it isn't raining I suppose. If anybody needs me I will be a puddle in the back garden.

gonna be honest I put my tshirt in the fridge

Important advice to all Brits for the coming week: make sure to go out and do some vigorous exercise, have a massive barbecue, drink a six pack and sit it in the sun all day long. You wouldn't want to miss out on summer!

hey @mattcornah.bsky.social, now's your big chance! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I am trying to find a full chart/graph that shows results for every candidate. Every chart I found so far truncates the candidates below the top 6, even the chart on BBC.

idk entirely how I feel about t' King oft' North, but I do like the fact he comprehensively defeated the admittedly weak Reform candidate. And the best of it is, despite Restore being a thorn in Reform's side they still got fewer votes between them than Labour. So "splitting the vote" didn't matter.

Checking in on British politics to find out that one of these people on stage is likely to be next prime minister.

What you have to understand is that for Starmer's team, the right is not the enemy. The left is. Its driving mission, from the moment Starmer took over, was to stamp out first the Labour left, then the wider left. It hates us, deeply and viscerally, with a passion never directed at the right.

Under this Labour government you must Verify Your Age before you can netplay Super Bomberman on Zsnes.

haha bluesky, ★I'M ALL BETTER NOW★

"David Harris you must please Verify Your Age before you can watch 'Vinny - Mina the Hollower (PART 1)'" I grew up around rotten dot com Starmer you odious grifting control freak fuckass.

Feel like I've spent my adulthood concerning myself with the lives and opinions of headmate apparitions & that I only know about 10 people.

(I'm in this thread but anyway), I'd still care because I have leaned on my creativity as an icebreaker for meeting likeminds, making friends and building communities. This used to work quite well for me, not so much any more.

I had to mute some digifu. sad about that but it's fair at least.

it's looking like I may have been scammed outta £150. so that's delightful. a small chance it can still work out but not holding my breath.

America had The Rippingtons, Japan had T-Square, Britain had unidentified VHS-rip background music from ITV Schools closedown, 1991.

watching the Michael Portillo travel programme and damn idk his fashion sense is honestly peak. How to be male and dress smart but without being a boring bastard, I approve. his suit looks like a friggin beach chair.

"this shit sounds like elevator music" yeah and is that a bad thing

when I eventually make music again its gonna be shit except next time it'll be intentional

looking into medical cannabis again. seen many IBD patients getting it prescribed. I have reservations about it though. you see, I am British, and in this country the notion that you get meds "as a treat" or "when you can afford it" is novel. "I'm sorry, I can't afford symptom relief this month."

As it stands, I'd like Andy Burnham to win the byelection and ultimately win a Labour leadership contest. I don't know if I like everything he stands for yet (most likely I'd still prefer a lib govt instead; I don't mind saying so), but if he introduces Electoral Reform, that's an enormous win.

Oh my god it's beautiful

Saturday evening plans: "do I watch the footy or do I watch eurovision? Ah, that's easy. House M.D. it is."

I hope this isn’t true. There are times when it’s more important to put country before party. This is one of them. Burnham’s longstanding commitment to a fairer voting system could transform our democracy & counter the dire threat of a Reform UK government elected on a minority of the vote

fuck a fake friend [2026 remaster]
