I just burned a CD of music. No idea what I’ll do next. Maybe I’ll whittle a flute out of a shinbone or something.
I think my most disliked Bluesky users are the ones who limit who can interact with their posts. Yes, I want to contribute to the discourse in the digital town square but I’m mainly interested in you enjoying what I have to say, I’m not interested in your comments. Take your football home then pal

I went to see The Beastie Boy last night. It was bloody brilliant.
My hearing loss is getting worse. I was confused in the car this morning when my passenger was telling me about someone who had “temporary dungarees”. When I checked it turned out they actually had “Type 2 diabetes”. Not sure which one’s worse though.

Hello sir, we are here to shelter from the wind. and do you have any snacks also?
Just checked in on the Kickstarter I backed that was due to deliver last Christmas. Looks like it *might* be coming soon but the whole endeavour’s been so toxic that I hate the stupid thing now. This has always been my Kickstarter experience, every single time.

I like it when the clocks go back and the time difference between the UK and New Jersey changes. It means that I can go neatly from RadMac on 6 Music to Carol’s Serious Moonlight Sonatas on @wfmu.bsky.social on a Sunday morning. This pleases me.

I just Shazamed “Freedom” by George Michael. My brain is officially mush.

I just tried to do something new with mashed potato and it didn’t work.
Just noticed that it’s Friday. I used to bloody love Fridays when I was a teenager as I was Metal AF and Tommy Vance’s Friday Rock Show was the absolute highlight of the week. TV on the radio, Tommy Vance the music vendor. Bless that man. youtu.be/XX-A4HvoGu8?...

I know podcasting is basically cooked as a medium now but there’s still one or two shows that are worth your time. I really love Lou and Adele Barlow’s Raw Impressions podcast. Genuine folks sharing their lives with honesty, humour and some fun wee bits of production. A gem pca.st/podcast/6de7...

I love it when I remember the Quickly Children Get Inside Pikachu’s Vagina thing.
A wren just landed on the window ledge next to where I’m sitting and, I have to tell you, it was delightful.
There’s a pheasant eating a pizza outside my back door just now.
