RIP Angry Anderson. Thank you for so legendarily soundtracking the TV moment I bussed home from Harlow College to see twice in one day. (Hello again Bluesky, it's been too long. Nothing personal, I'm lazy.) www.nfsa.gov.au/collection/i...

Neighbours: Scott and Charlene wedding
It’s strange to think that Kylie Minogue was only on Neighbours for two years, so indelibly is she associated with the show. The only thing...

This reads to me very much like the tale of somebody who once said PRIMM-er by mistake in front of people and got the piss absolutely ripped out of them, and who after many many years of hard work and perseverance finally achieved control of the Merriam-Webster social media accounts

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

What a privilege to see @edwyncollins.bsky.social on his testimonial tour. Glorious voice, impeccable songs and one hell of a band. Curious choice of venue (basically a church hall in Southampton) but there was so much love in that room. Thank you for everything, Edwyn.

From grassroots gigs to stadium shows, there’s no escaping the ticketing giant, making billions from hiking up prices (and whacking on fees)

RIP Gene Hackman. Many moons ago I had a beer with Luke Wilson (long story). I asked him who the coolest person in Hollywood was. He immediately said: "Gene Hackman. That guy is a total dude". (I then asked who was the biggest wanke..."Ryan Adams", he said, before I finished the question)

What a beautiful couple! Photo from my collection, 1954.
Black and white photo of a young woman in a white formal event or wedding dress. She has a ring on her left ring finger so it's probably a wedding. She is kneeling on the floor of a living room with the voluminous white satiny skirt spread out all around her. The dress is strapless and she wears a white chiffon shrug with short puff sleeves. Beside her sits a beautiful shorthaired tabby cat that she is petting, as if the two were intentionally posed together for this portrait.
