Cheers Peter! I'm not on FB much either, I'm getting very lazy about social media. Real life is good, though. Hope yours is too 😊

I'd love one, thanks Peter. I'd forgotten how nice it was around here. Might stay a while.

Kudos also to Alan Turner for saying from the other room "did you hear how he died, though?" and, after 10 full seconds of me not getting it, saying "suddenly".

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...

Hope you're both having a fab evening! Loved Divorce at the Joiners last year. This time round, I've opted for an early night with book, bloke and cat 😴

Thanks Kate xx I miss Iggy every day. Lumen is completely different from him. That's the CDS at work - it knows what it's doing. Here she is, being spectacularly herself.

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

Thanks Steve. I'm sorry to hear about your two, it is a horrible experience. Iggy is still such a presence in our house. I think he always will be.

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.

La Voix’s dad Richard, who will be 80 soon, was her drag family resemblance makeover on Drag Race UK last year. He was so entirely unflappable and supportive of Chris and it made everyone cry on Gogglebox too #Strictly #SCD

Thank you so much for posting this, Kate. I haven't been on bluesky for a while, I'd like to pick up the habit again. When Iggy died I knew there'd be people here who care about him and would miss him. Ugh, I'm still in denial... what a few weeks it's been. Anyway. Thank you again x

Recently been listening to an audiobook (Exit Stage Left by Nick Duerden) that mentions this album, and a number of times he calls it "99.9 degrees fahrenheit". Seriously the rage it triggered in me...

Absolutely. The evening was 90% joy and 5% horrible fear. Seems a very small proportion of viewers actually vote, so it's effectively a low-turnout election and can be influenced very easily. Of course EBL will never release a breakdown voting data, it'd undermine their credibility.

I've sort of lost the social media habit since that boy burnt down Twitter. Haven't forgotten you, though. Here's a pic of Iggy watching last night's semi. He liked Malta.

For the Saturday Guardian I dug into the history of Ticketmaster and how the ticketing industry works to work out why tickets at the top level have become so expensive and hard to get www.theguardian.com/money/2025/m...
theguardian.com
Who is behind the great rock’n’roll ripoff? How Ticketmaster swallowed the live entertainment scene
From grassroots gigs to stadium shows, there’s no escaping the ticketing giant, making billions from hiking up prices (and whacking on fees)

📷 Saul Leiter. Cafe (Paris) 1959. #photography
A color photo of a cafe scene in Paris. There are small tables and one table has a woman with red hair writing with a pen. There is a newspaper and a coffee cup on the table. The background is blurry but you can see human figures.
