Some sad news to report, I'm afraid... Jeff Grant, the director of legendary public information film Lonely Water, died on 13 March. He fought to include the film's horror elements, and they proved so successful that it opened the door to the shocking PIFs that we know and love. (1/2)

When we visited Stockholm a while back, each lift in the hotel played a different Abba song, and I insisted on waiting for the one that played The Day Before You Came. That's how much I love this song. And I think Pulp just made the definitive version.

My family are shit at getting ready - used to get annoyed and shout. Now I have a todo list and get small jobs done in the time between us supposed to be leaving and us actually leaving. Today I shaved my balls before a dog walk.

This is one of those books I don’t want to end. I want the 6-episode documentary version, the podcast remake, the limited edition cassette with 151 extra tracks. It’s a flawless tribute to Richey’s epigram (‘music and words came first’). Bravo @keithcameron2.bsky.social 🙂 #manicstreetpreachers

I love music, but I hate dancing. It's so embarrassing. There's always so much pressure to dance at social occasions. I've tried to dance like no one is watching, feel the rain on my skin etc but I can't, I hate it and I hope I never have to do it again.

This is corporate doublespeak of the highest order. And do the advertisers really think anyone dutifully sits there and watches the ads? Presumably most people just lower the volume and look at something on their phone. Or stare at the floor.

Also, this whole premise rests on him encountering people who are simultaneously savvy enough to con the government out of an entire house by feigning homelessness, but so clueless as to immediately spill the beans about the whole thing when casually asked by some random berk Seems... unlikely?

In that familiar old incompetence I haven't missed, Trump's executive order defines sex as what a person is at CONCEPTION. Fetal sex doesn't begin to differentiate until about 7 weeks into gestation. Which means Donald used the highest office in the land to declare all Americans legally female.

A screenshot of Donald Trump's transphobic executive order, declaring a person's gender to be based on their status at conception.
