Just had to mute the news. That Piddington story makes me cringe so hard. They’re so fucking pleased with themselves. No wonder so much of the country despises those of us in the white middle class bits of England.

Without saying your age, what is your favourite movie that came out when you were 20 years old?
Started watching the first series of Ludwig. Quite enjoyable, but plot errors are irritating. A south facing chancel in a late medieval church (episode 3) for example.
I was called a four-eyed cunt by a child yesterday, after I told the little bullying git off for slapping another kid across the face.
We went to see this this evening. Very good indeed, though nearing the end of its run, so we were lucky to get tickets.
Sade’s Your Love is King is 42 years old and it still sounds terrific. 42 years before that, Spike Jones was tearing it up with Der Feuhrer’s Face. Great song, but it’s not aged so well.

Ben Davies earlier this evening. Great to be back at The Lane.
That video of Dolly and Kermit singing Sly and the Family Stone’s song celebrating difference and inclusion is a wonderful allegory of what the USA should be.

Oh Jesus. The guard on this train is doing that weird public service announcement thing emphasising the wrong words but incredibly loudly. Murder on the 2248 to Reading.
2001: A Space Odyssey Nah. A cinematic equivalent of Moby Dick. We can all appreciate the artistry, but please do get on with it!
Whats a movie everyone fucking loves that you despise? It doesnt have to be objectively bad, you just objectively DID NOT. Heres one for me since Ive been on a Barbara Loden kick lately-
Well The Telegraph and The Mail have got exactly what they wanted. Jason Arday is dead. I hope they’re really pleased with themselves the ghoulish bastards.
