Friends are the absolute best. Received this beauty from one in the post this morning because her and I share an abiding love of LCD Soundsystem. Gorgeous book, beautifully bound and with fantastic photos throughout.

There would be casualties. Namely me. Jonesy takes a dim view of the actual carrier I have for her. This would result in deep lacerations to one’s arse being explained in A&E.

Cat haters are, in my experience, a terrifying bunch. People who claim indifference to cats, meanwhile, are simply individuals who've never taken the time to get to know a really great cat.

I don't deny that dogs can sometimes be quite lovely but what I will say is I don't trust their opinions. If a cat recommended me an album it had bought, I'd totally check it out. If a dog did the same, I'd promise to listen to the album, out of politeness, with no intention of actually doing so

Good Lord. I go away for three months and come back to discovering you’re listening to this… …which I last heard off my nut during those weeks in hospital in Guildford in 98 on high strength pethidine.

She’s back in now stalking and complaining about not being allowed to kill and eat a huge stinging thing….

Nothing like early morning drama to get the blood flowing. Large bee had gotten into the flat. Jonesy was launching herself at it like a furry Exocet and I had to wrestle her out of the room and then shepherd the bee back outside. It was like trying to convince a drunk they don’t want to fight!

I slipped getting out of the bath not so long ago and missed twatting my head bu a whisker. Not long after texted a pal saying ‘Fuck. I’ve started having falls’.

It’s the modem equivalent of being robbed by a highwayman on the over night London coach circa 1720.

Is there a more chilling phrase in English than ‘Windows is Updating’? ‘An Evening of Interpretative Dance’ maybe…

Sir Keir's handlers delete posts after he calls himself "MechaThatcher" and describes Ronald Reagan as "the supreme daddy".

“Gregg Wallace to sue BBC over alleged autism discrimination”- a mediocre white man with a massive ego can’t understand why he is not able to wiggle himself out of this.

I think the broader internet would be more receptive to criticism about Kojima if the people making it were not, 99% of the time, laughably and pitifully envious of his success and mad it isn't them

If there is a hell Norman Tebbit is now on a slow moving bicycle doing an eternity’s worth of laps of the lake of fire pursued by demons who catch and devour him every half hour. Then they cough him up and once more start the pursuit shouting ‘On yer bike Norman!’

She really is. It is my fervent belief that whatever magic is left on this rock is contained in cats.

Oh will you look at that absolute beauty. I’m compelled to head to the kitchen for treats by a mystical force! My own knows this weakness in me and flashes her amber eyes at me!

Those eyes! Such a beauty even if she only has eyes for the chicken!

I was unaware of ‘The Salt Path’ before today, read a few paragraphs of the Observer piece and realised I didn’t give a single solitary fuck to know either and gave up. I’m celebrating this as personal growth!

If it helps any Vee I have a weekly meeting I attend online and realised last week that I look like the bloody Unabomber or some loon who lives in a cabin in the woods ranting about conspiracy theories! Beard and hair needed hacking back….

One minute scrolling for LFC transfer gossip, the next in bits, discovering the tragic loss of Diogo Jota and his brother. The devastation that poor family must be feeling is unimaginable. YNWA.

I feel like we’ve been waging an unacknowledged campaign of terrorism on women since forever. Statistically it’s hard to refute.

Apparently it’s not warm enough for my feline housemate…. I mean who wouldn’t be getting under a fleecy blanket in a hammock on a day like today? Cats….
Picture is taken from one end of a window hammock. There are bits of an orange and white cat protruding at the edges but she is mostly covered up by the grey fleece blanket that comes with the hammock. 

It is extremely sunny in the photograph and I can assure you it is sweltering here….

Hahaha. It’s absolutely true. Only Sigourney Weaver and the cat escape at the end and I spent the whole film worrying about the cat!

ConstantineX @constantinex.bsky.social · 29/06/2025
Hahahhh. Brilliant! The spawn have to be annoyed! Jonesy is so called after the orange cat in Alien. Saw it as a kid and was mad about the cat and promised myself one day I’d have a Jonesy of my own!

I just want her to know I’m interested in her hobbies too! Hahahahaa.

ConstantineX @constantinex.bsky.social · 29/06/2025
Ekekkekekekek. Yup. In fairness I’ve sat there with her doing it myself! She’s VERY vocal and has opinions about everything. Largely the speed with which I attend to her every sodding whim!

That’s perfectly reasonable. I hope for nothing but good things for them and their musicianship is so good but their direction now just isn’t my bag.

Yes, mine is stretched out in her window hammock and jabs her head out occasionally to inform me that either I or the birds outside are interfering with her tranquility!

It’s absolutely fine to ask, no zero chance. We worked on parting properly and there were no lingering feelings or anything left unsaid. We’ve been apart years now and I count her amongst my best friends but we moved past that aspect long ago.

ConstantineX @constantinex.bsky.social · 29/06/2025
I stopped at chicken and gravy but this is precisely the sort of caper I can get away with as it’s just me and the cat, whom it has to be said is indifferent to the side dishes!

‘English pastoral’ sums up the sound perfectly. I shall be stealing that description!

I like to think that we are both good people and were good friends anyway, and because no one fucked the other one over it was easier to stay friends. It’s sickeningly healthy.
