FINE I’ll do it. Not sure how others are interpreting “the sound that made me” so I’ve gone with the nine albums 15 year old me would pick. And 15 year old me fails the name a woman challenge. To give him some credit he owned TWO whole PJ Harvey albums, he just listened to them less than Jamiroquai

A grid featuring nine albums, they are: 
Electric Light Orchestra - Out of the Blue
Beck - Midnite Vultures
Basement Jaxx - Rooty
Jamiroquai - A Funk Odyssey
Outkast - Speakerboxxx/The Love Below
Weezer - Blue Album
Super Furry Animals - Rings Around the World
The Avalanches - Since I Left You
N.E.R.D. - Fly Or Die

I have a record player and hundreds of LPs that I almost never listen to so I’m trying to get back into the habit of putting a record on of an evening. Back on Twitter I was working through all my albums alphabetically for a while, but I’m not doing that again because it began to feel like a chore

The issue with planning a 20-25 minute set of Charli XCX covers is that while she does have quite a lot of short songs, they’re not actually short enough for me to do the Springsteen-esque 30 song setlist I have in my head as that would require me to bash out a song every 45 seconds, and not breathe

If you failed to get Charli XCX Glasgow tickets, firstly LOL, amateur, I got tickets EASY PEASY, but secondly, you should come watch me début Glasgow’s most misguided Charli XCX tribute, HARDLI XCX, on Halloween at Duck And Cover. Probably as good as the real thing! www.outsavvy.com/event/39264/...

Maybe reductive to claim being happily married has made Carly Rae Jepsen’s music less interesting, until you realise her husband produced a big chunk of her new album. Also why do people make double albums it’s almost never a good idea.

Macklemore: Palestinian children are people. Robert Kraft *actively getting a handjob from a strip mall prostitute he refuses to tip*: We must ban this hate speech from every stadium in America. Let me call up my friends, the Epstein client list. Ed Sheeran: Good point, sir. Both sides, sir.

Not sure I’ve ever 100%-ed a game before and for some mad reason I decided Silksong was gonna be the one, and let me tell you Team Cherry are some sick fucks for making you do some tedious bullshit juggling minigame that’s harder than any boss in the entire game

When someone as beloved as Dolly Parton dies it can really hammer home how insignificant you are, as an everyday nobody whose death will not occasion the grief of millions. Not for me though, I got that out of the way last night reading about the 7ft statue they’ve built of Magawa the land mine rat.

To be fair, sacking a manager because winning a trophy and finishing 17th is “unacceptable”, then proceeding to finish 17th with no trophy, then spending £400m and finishing 17th again, would be the funniest thing this football club has ever done.

I’ve reread this a few times trying to work out what The Guardian means when using the word “consecutive” here, and I think I’ve cracked it. They are using the word “consecutive” to mean “non-consecutive”. Obvious really

Text from a guardian article about the Clacton by-election - 

“As well as the town of Clacton-on-Sea, the constituency comprises rural villages, farmland and several seaside towns and villages including Frinton, Walton-on-the-Naze and Jaywick, which last year was named the most deprived neighbourhood in England for the fourth consecutive time since 2010.

The three polls that Jaywick topped before 2025 were published in 2010, 2015 and 2019.”
