My Tonverk solves the hardest problem in noodling (naming your stuff) by giving your project a random two word name. My most recent is Inadvisable Lifeboat, so I regret to announce that it has gone fash

I look around the world and see what other countries can afford, look at our wealth compared to theirs, and only one conclusion can be drawn: when they say they can't afford things here they are lying, and they are unwilling to make necessary changes. Fuck all of them.

I would LOVE to see tech bros’ guesstimates of what shares of the population do different types of labor. Part of the infatuation with AI has to be that they can’t really imagine what most people do all day

I work at the newspaper and just wrote The Great Awokening is over, I’m both 79 and 12 years old and make 260,000 dollars a year from a man who sent Katy Perry into space on a rocket ship. As you can see, everyone else is the problem.

I checked the UK to 40, expecting to have heard 1 of them, and it turns out to be 7 - I’d underestimated how ridiculous the lower reaches of the charts are these days. (Plus 2 Olivia Rodrigo)

I asked my Swedish friend how to pronounce Tonverk, and I was doing it right and all the barbarians on the internet are doing it wrong (although she is from Skåne so it's the equivalent of asking someone from the West Country how something is pronounced)

Harsh but fair
Item on the BBC live reporting from an incident at Fairford air base reading “Whitehall officials say the investigation into the incident at RAF Fairford is being led by counter-terror police. The BBC understands that it was not intelligence-led.”

Day 2: Yesterday's choice was a pretty faithful Byrds cover. Today's is rather more unfaithful, and brilliantly so, slowing it down and giving it a dramatic Morricone-style overhaul. The Postmarks - Eight Miles High song.link/y/qQ5EbO8bIFo #5CoverSongsEvens

The football rot started when Silvio Berlusconi, at that time just president of AC Milan, lobbied for a champions league because pure knockout competitions were unacceptably risky for major clubs and "not modern thinking". We've had 40-odd years of modern thinking everywhere and isn't life grand.

Been multi-tracking myself singing When I'm 64 and bunging a load of reverb on it. It still sounds bloody awful, but less awful than just me singing, and lots of fun.

Yeah and that’s why the coffee being iced and iced coffee being seen as a more feminine drink preferred by younger people kind of explains people acting as if it’s unheard of and out of line.
