3rd time playing football tonight and I think I’m getting the hang of not panicking and running away from the ball. So that’s progress I guess.

Madonna and Kylie performing Sorry together would have been the peak of my entire life so it’s probably a good thing I wasn’t there.
Going from the (very good) new Ariana Grande album straight into the (also very good) new Arca album was certainly a choice at 10am.
It is WEIRD BEHAVIOUR to film random people near you while at a gig. It’s not ‘having some fun’ to turn your camera at other people trying to have a good time and involve them in whatever you think you are filming.
Iconic scenes from A Complicated Woman. Self Esteem is an all time great at this point.
We are headed to York today (for a gig obviously) and need some recommendations for places to eat/things to do tomorrow.
Huge show from Wet Leg tonight at Castlefield Bowl. Could barely see a thing through the excessive smoke machine mind.
The Madonna album is fantastic. What a day to have good taste in music.
I think Ultrabeat’s set at Cardiff pride might be the most chaotic live performance I’ve ever seen in my life.
Phoebe Bridgers playing arenas and having a no phones policy is the best news I could have heard today.
Have started a series over on TikTok and Instagram where I talk about an album I love from an LGBTQ+ artist every day in June. I’ve covered the following so far: Scissor Sisters - Scissor Sisters Who Am I? - Pale Waves Kick I - Arca the record - boygenius vm.tiktok.com/ZNRvdQjd5/

Need to rate our Uber driver 1 star for playing tropical house covers of pop songs on the journey.
Actually completed a game for once. Enjoyed Death Stranding 2 even more than the first game and I still feel like I only scratched the surface of that world.
It’s a need honestly.

TikTok have auto set every single video of mine to ‘Allow AI to Remix Content’. The only way to remove this is to manually do it on every single video. The idea of something I’ve made or my likeness being used in an Ad that a marketing company has ‘created’ using GenAI is dystopian as fuck.
Forever hope I’m never as bored in my life as the crowd at Coachella.
