And here again is my favourite ever Batman poem...
Batman’s aff his nut
Have you seen the way he cuts aboot
Dressed up as a mad fuckin bat
Batterin guys
I was lit at:
“Mate, I’m worried aboot ye
I know your ma and da died
But everybody’s ma and da dies
And we’re no aw runnin aboot
Hookin muggers and
Kickin psychopaths in the baws.”
And that was when Batman went
“Aye, but do ye ever feel like it?
Do you ever look at the world and feel like it?
Like having a big mad base under your hoose?
Do you ever feel like drivin a big mad motor
that turns intae a tank?
And leatherin fuck oot of guys aw night?
Scarin the fuckin shite oot of them?”
And that’s when I was lit at:
“Aye. Fuck it. Ah dae.”
And that’s the Secret Origin of Robin
And everyone else.

Still the absolute funniest "trailer remix" ever made -- as well as one of the very first of its kind, debuting in 2005 Every shot is perfectly chosen God I could watch this all day

I’ve worked in the music industry long enough to know that access to the “artist” is severely limited, so the sheer idea that some drunkard can just walk up to the vice president of the United States for a chat is beyond laughable. It’s his version of Trumps “big strong man with tears in his eyes”

A new cat has arrived on the scene. I’ve decided their name is Brian. I’m going to post on the local pet group where people usually go “I think this cat is lost” to hopefully just find out where it lives, if it’s friendly, and what it’s less appropriate name is as soon as I can get a picture.

I recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings

The U.S. President discussed the war in Iran, press freedom, AI, and more ahead of the midterm elections.

My wife is away and the child is going for a sleepover across the road, so I have decided to do some day drinking watching my local non league football team this afternoon. I've lived here for 13 years so it's probably about time I got around to it.

Do people not do ‘the history’ any more? AIDS crisis. Race riots. Massive unemployment. Privatization and ruination of everything. institutional police racism. Misogyny. Homophobia. Famine. Rise of Murdoch. Recession. The far right reemerging from under their rocks. Lad culture. Bosnia. Rwanda.
When people think the 80s and 90s were great.

Every year I do artwork and the website for an annual 4 day festival that my wife also works on. This year it’s in Dallas and all kicks off Thursday (she gets to go because she’s more important than I am). 13 months. 3.46GB. 648 files. …and now my focus shifts to next year…

I had to go to Waitrose today as we needed a specific ingredient. It’s the biggest supermarket within walking distance but we don’t use it often because of the price. I have to say, I might just up the food budget. They have EVERYTHING. A whole cheese counter AND a cheese section. Restrain me.

Of all the things I absolutely do not give a shit about, the royal family and what they may or may not have said about 30 years ago comes pretty much top of the list. Can we please just normalise ignoring them? They’re all fucking awful. Absolutely pointless. They only exist for gossip and tourisism

Everytime I watch American football I’m reminded of how much I loved it as a kid living in America and then remember it’s fucking stupid. All American sport is fucking stupid. I went to an ice hockey game in January and it was 2hrs of performance and 60mins of play. Stupid. No wonder they’re cooked.

Need to harness the power of Bluesky, so reposts are appreciated. If anyone here, or anyone you know attends Bangor University (the Welsh one) and needs a room for the upcoming year, get in touch. One of my son's housemates has dropped out at the last minute, so their house is one short.

I’m going to be 50 in a few months, which I am totally fine with - Age is a gift. But don’t ever let me be one of those older bald dude who dress like teenagers. Had to spend some time In Farringdon waiting for a train and they were everywhere in their skinny jeans and tight shirts. Hard no.

Just had an extended & increasingly manic rant at my wife about a band I’m working with. I LOVE the band but it turns out the whole apparatus around them is pure chaos. Deadline is looming and there is much yet to do and I’m losing my shit because no one is making decisions. It’s breaking me.

To my absolute shame I’ve just bought a new Xbox to replace my absolutely-nothing-wrong-with-it Xbox because my current Xbox is incapable of playing GTA 6 and the only reason I bought that Xbox was to play GTA 5. If anyone wants to buy a perfectly good Xbox for a bargain let me know. I feel dirty.

Think about Miss Piggy. She lost a best friend and now an ex-lover in matter of 24 hours.
Miss Piggy and Dolly Parton in fancy dresses posing together photo of Tim Curry surrounded by muppets, smiling for a photo. A quote from curry is added “it didn’t go very well. It didn’t survive the shoot. She felt I wasn’t being faithful to her” it’s him discussing his ill fated affair with miss piggy

Just arrived at our Airbnb. The owners are away but her dad stopped by to check all was OK. Really nice guy, very helpful and gave us loads of info about the area - the best walks, great pubs, and how 20 years ago a gunman murdered 14 people before killing himself at the property.

My daughter got her GCSE results today and I don’t think I’ve ever been prouder. Genuinely amazing results and well beyond what we expected. I literally checking the piece of paper to make sure it was really hers. 33 years ago I scraped 5 passes. She got all As & Bs in old money. I could cry.

I fear that today might be the last time I wear shorts until 2027 and that makes me sad. I have worn trousers twice since the end of May and I hated both occasions. I’m not yet ready to be the guy who just wears shorts all year round but revisit this space next year.

I really don’t like Andy Burnham. There’s something about him I can’t quite put my finger on but I’d probably choose to leave him behind in a survival scenario rather than fetch him the glass of water that would save his life. Punchable fuckwit. Lead singer syndrome infected performative wanker.

GCSE results on Thursday. The Heir is beside herself. The whole process has been unfathomably stressful. She *should* do well but trying to find the balance between expectations vs reality is going to keep everyone awake at night. Two more sleeps and then this horrible nightmare is over.

Massive shout out to @chatpileband.bsky.social for having the decency to play a gig 20mins bus ride from my house. The last few times in London were a pain in the hoop to get to. On top of that, they were fucking brilliant. Time well spent. Grimace, Dallas Beltway AND Rainbow Meat!! Cheers lads.
The only picture I took of the mighty CHAT PILE at Bush Hall in London. Lovely room, but shit venue. Nothing on tap. Iffy sound. But fuck me what a gig. Arguably the best I’ve seen them in spite of the other nonsense. Could have done without the excessively tall people and the dude near us who smelled like he hasn’t washed in weeks, but glad I left the house on a Monday for it.
