Argh - the amount of terrible films that got a sequel but we couldn’t possibly have a follow up to Dredd 😔

An EV doesn’t need a radiator grille. I’m sure every owner appreciates the crappy plastic grille on their BMW EV that’s there because BMW repurposed the same design from the petrol version of that car 🤷‍♂️

I agree with the sentiment, however the horse being simultaneously pushed through the door and being ridden sideways past the door is a new level of optical MC-Eschery 😂

Was so feeling the late 90s there when I saw that font-I’m sure it was used on those CDs of highly saturated images of the National Parks you could get- Good Times 😂

Of course we can’t even legislate for e-scooters let alone cars that fly 👀

Read it last year and felt it was one his best in recent years - Really enjoyed it - Familiar themes with an intriguing storyline that didn’t drag. The Institute still pips it though as my favourite recent SK read 😁

Question - when is the GN of Damage Report being released - it’s a compelling narrative - surely you have the talent to bring it to life visually 🤔

Just downloaded it - really looking forward to reading - thanks 🙏

I’m reading this with the ‘endless/infinite’ version of the BBC News music in my head - and the titles going around endlessly of course 👍

Went there last week - lovely place with friendly staff and it’s free - they have a Lancaster sim as well as the spitfire sim - lots to see and well worth whatever donation you feel like leaving

Probably anyone who took an interest 🤷‍♂️ it was then weaponised by the brexit friendly news outlets to start a whole new culture war ..

Amazing album - Got me through Lockdown and the endless 100% WFH 🙌

True - But they’re all too big - including CDs. The spine width takes up way too much shelf space. Ditch the box (unless it’s card) and have the cover/inlay and disc in their own clear wallet - and file in an Ikea box - reclaim your shelves 😁

Really nice shot - the only photo today that’s made me stop and really look at it 🙌

I’m now imagining fake outrage/headlines from the Sun from back in the day - ‘Brussels forcing artists to re-record songs for the EU” “3218.7 kilometres” by The Pretenders anyone 🤣

Yes - listening on the train from London Charing Cross, travelling home from work after buying it at Tower Records, Piccadilly Circus….

The tiny garages in new build houses count as a parking space, despite not being fit for purpose. The tiny driveway/front of the house area is the 2nd parking space . This is why everyone parks their too wide cars along the too narrow new build road

Love this album - one of my favourite albums and love the alt cover on the vinyl- I’ll be listening to it this morning with my headphones on - perfect 👌

Jamie Simmons @jamiesimmons.bsky.social · 23/04/2026
It’s alright - prefer the maxi mix, although in the UK actually getting played on the radio ahead of T’Pau and Wet Wet Wet was always the challenge 😂

So many anniversaries… only bought this recently on vinyl. It’s a stealth gem in The Cure’s back catalogue (along with Three Imaginary Boys)

Love this album. One of three tapes bought to listen to on headphones on the beach in Tenerife in 86… the other two being In Visible Silence and Speaking in Tongues - all still checking out in 2026 ⭐️

I definitely want my new car to have a UI as unintuitive as an early 2000s no-brand DVD player - Great job guys 👍

Maybe in the near future you’ll be able to - easily and at low cost - get negatives made of your digital photos

Interested if anyone knows the current prices at Washington services on the A1 - one of the most cynically price gouging petrol stations in the UK - apparently

I mean the hole is the microphone of course, rather than the speaker.. though people do like to put the bottom of the phone on their ear as well though..

Jamie Simmons @jamiesimmons.bsky.social · 28/02/2026
So … are people actually thinking that the power connector ‘hole’ is the speaker..? Is that why they do that whole can’t use a phone thing

So, which of those tariffs are paid for by foreign countries? 😂

Chip shop near me just put a menu through the door, with well over 100 items on it - longer than the Chinese takeaway’s 🤷‍♂️

Listening to The Gouster this week - although Young Americans has been my least listened album, something about this one really clicked when I heard it - maybe it was the release of the Soul Tour live album that for me, made sense of his mid 70s sound #davidbowie open.spotify.com/playlist/4QQ...

Amazing news - thought that all we had of the TV movie was the final edit. The film restorations for the blu-ray collections have been incredible, so really looking forward to this

Also, in years when Easter is later, it should bump the other bank holidays back as well - we don’t need 4 bank holiday days over a 6 week period - give us time to enjoy them properly please
