Sneering at people's food photos is the worst, right? For all sorts of reasons, often overlapping ones, and also the basic thing that you just shouldn't piss on people's chips by telling them that the thing they like or are proud of is actually crap. But fuck me, you don't half see some horrors

"Choose craft" as a slogan. As in, I chose not to choose craft, I chose something else? And the reasons...

Is he not called 3D anymore? I always thought that was a daft name. I mean, you'd be worried if he was anything less than 3D

Some of you are going to have a lot of opinions about what the mainstream US voter wants to hear from the Democrats this autumn, it turns out. You may not have realised this yet

There's a question though, if we keep an animal should we get to decide that it can't have kids? I'm not sure I care enough about it to think about it though

Hate to say it but the new Chaka Khan album is pretty bad, sounds like slop. She's better than that. If you really are in a bubble then make sure half-arsed slop albums are outside that bubble

I think it's fine to have not heard or be interested in hearing Choosin' Texas tbh. I know country pop stuff is huge at the moment but I've heard enough of it to know it's not an avenue I want to go down really, you know? Which is a diplomatic way of saying that I think it's shit

I felt for this bear I saw earlier
Giant teddy bear slumped against the front window of a library but in a weirdly human way

My first thought about that Gavin Bazunu statement was that it's nice to see somebody in the public eye cite their religion as a reason for something positive, not one of those "I can't wear this rainbow because of my faith and no I will not elaborate" ones

I like the new Carly Rae Jepsen album, it does make me think a bit of Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party (made disco) a bit in the way it's a grab bag of different styles, but that's a great record so no bad thing

Trouble is that somebody going to be spinning this as "if you play then you love genocide", throwing all kinds of shit at the players for not refusing to play, you know how it goes

This does look and sound a lot like an ITYSL thing, but also I've worked out what it really reminds me of, the music of Lewis Capaldi. I generally don't think cameras should be in courtrooms so am showing myself up by watching this video three times

This is good fun eh. There are things in here that I've accepted aren't for me, things that I like but others seem to like more, I can live with it. Some things are surprising - we're putting Nathan For You above The Rehearsal? Nice that we're including sketch shows but is Key & Peele that good?

I think I've mentioned my theory that most of the audience at a travelling circus is the same people every time, travelling around to follow the circuses? That's how I'm looking at these men showing up for Danny Tommo etc. It's the same hundred freaks every time

Don't know about you but I'm tired of the limited series thing. I want unlimited ones, I want to watch the first episode knowing there's going to be a million others, that it's going to crap eventually and outstay its welcome but that there'll be an endless supply of it if I decide to watch it

I am 99.99% certain I've said this before, but whenever I start trying to verify my age on this I'm distracted by them partnering with KWS. Not being funny but how are KWS going to help, nobody's heard anything from them since their cover of Please Don't Go

I know what his fucking name is. This is like when people think that calling Tommy Robinson "Stephen Yaxley-Lennon" is some sort of own. He doesn't give a shit. He's not Rumplestiltskin. You don't get magical powers over him by saying his True Name.

I wonder when they stopped putting things like "top hit in England" on sleeves? Like at some point everywhere else stopped caring what was popular in England

You know what, I've tried "likes beer as personality" before and I don't think it's a good idea for anybody let alone the guy who's running the country

Do you get around this by saying clubs from a certain level up can't sell booze during the halves, and one drink per person? Then all it would mean is that people can take whatever they've already bought into the stand rather than downing it

This woman came a couple of times who was basically the "how do you do, fellow kids?" meme crossed with the vibe of Ben Elton's Nozin' Aroun' bit on the Young Ones. Remember her saying we must be wondering who this cool young person was. She was not a cool young person

Realising that my plan of marking 9/21 by listening to every EWF album is doomed to failure because I don't have anywhere near enough hours and also some of the later stuff is not good

I remember referring to this in the pub after work once and my colleague looking at me with a lot of concern. It's less well known than you'd think

All this business about blocking people and reporting them and muting them etc, not sure how effective it is? Because it only works on this app. Like how significant it is dependends on how much you see this one app as the world

That's twice Ed Sheeran has tried to say something when he would have been better off saying nothing. Just keep quiet and wait for it to blow over surely? Do the gig pretending nothing is different and nothing has happened

Jon @jonimonlydancing.bsky.social · 19/09/2026
This is the thing though, Sheeran famously doesn't have a visible backing band, if people know anything about his gigs it's that? But somehow the story has become that his band dropped out, it sounds like this band were going to accompany him on certain songs from his catalogue of shit

So does anybody remember those DIC home videos where the titles at the start had the logo and a little kid going "dic!!!" or have I imagined that somehow? You question yourself on these things as you get older

I think sometimes you do need an indie band who are obviously a lot of David Byrne, a bit of Thomas Dolby, a smaller bit of Entertainment! youtu.be/3EBHkGoAqkY?...

Love that this is a repeat of every other argument I remember from indie music forums in 2001. Imagine how boring the White Stripes would be if they had some tight muso bloke drummer instead of Meg

I was thinking the other week that it's odd how little you hear about Elkie Brooks considering how big she was for a time and the demand for what I'd broadly call "music my dad was into when he was younger" www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...
theguardian.com
Elkie Brooks looks back: ‘Before I went on stage I used to drink Guinness and a few shots of brandy’
The singer-songwriter on her rock’n’roll past, playing second fiddle to the Beatles, and the key to being an energetic performer in your 80s
