"Music can be imperfect & still be wonderful; a performance can be meaningful & important while still being full of inevitable human flaws. In the end, quite a lot of things did go wrong & none of it mattered". I wrote about our recent gigs, my first in 25 years❤️ www.newstatesman.com/culture/musi...

newstatesman.com

I loved performing again, but it reminded me to keep one foot in normal life

Our gigs went better than I could have hoped; even the things that went wrong added to the magic.

See the movies or don't, read your kids whatever you want, but this self-portrait of a gloating hatemonger is the identity she has chosen.

JK Rowling posing like a smug supervillain on some yacht or villa balcony or something and gloating about the UK Supreme Court's anti-trans decision.

Periodic nod of respect to Joanna Newsom for only showing up in two songs on all of Spotify: The Muppets Theme Song and that track where The Roots sampled “The Book of Right On.”

His halftime set did little more than underline his beef with Drake.

Philip is one of the best editors I've ever worked with (and I've been lucky to do so as a writer and as an editor), and he's helped maintain Reader's music coverage as the gold standard for more than two decades. To lose it after so many other blows would be devastating.

I’ll never forget the time I interviewed Chris Stein and Debbie Harry of Blondie about being a part of David Lynch’s Festival of Disruption. From Chris musing about Lynch being true to his weirdness to Debbie saying that our connection to David is part of our connected spirit. Unforgettable

it genuinely sucks that basically nothing on the internet works well anymore. search? barely works. social media? filled with garbage engagement-bait designed to game the algorithm. news websites? pages that refresh at random or so covered in video ads that it’s impossible to read stories
