Re: Brazil - my biggest takeaway is the extent to which the two largest nations in the Americas are now both stuck in this bizarre quadrennial coin-flip that simultaneously seems unsustainable but with no obvious replacement.

I am not very worried about about the Tory Tapestry’s misuse of “doth”. What worries me much more is this sequence of panels which seems to show a small boat full of brown-skinned people followed by a plague of rats running riot and then a lot of dead white people labelled tax payers.

Detail from Conservative Party mock Bayeux Tapestry showing 1. A boat full of brown skinned people. 2. Enormous rats chasing cats. 3. White-skinned “tax payers” dead in the streets.

“Because Germany dominating Europe was a clear existential threat to the interests and sovereignty of the UK” would be a perfectly adequate and non-ideological answer to a question encountered by every British schoolchild Rees-Mogg responded to a literal Nazi talking point with jingoistic preening

October is such a romantic month like maybe it's just me but the atmospheric quality of it... the silence. The fog and the rain and the falling leaves... is there anything better than reading a good book or writing poetry, drinking tea and lighting candles? God I love autumn.

Pete is lost in terms of modern war. I use the example of this outgunned Ukrainian army officer who successfully terrorized a Russian unit for weeks because she "did the math." At the time, someone commented, "yeah, in combat, 'I did the math' beats 'I can do 100 pushups' every time."

Ukrainian female soldier: Okay, I said the idea is this: There is enough time to empty one full can of 32 grenades and be gone by the time the return mortar fire reaches us. I did the math.

Night. The House of Chimes - a tower which you might immediately think of as Big Ben - is adrift in the River Thames. It still seems to be keeping time. In the background, a large, alien building looms over the city of London.

Today I had the honour of chaperoning the great Emi Sakura during a very brief visit to Newcastle. We went to the memorial for PAC and even had time to take in St James’s Park! A beautiful soul. I’m sorry we met under such awful circumstances, but thank you for making the trip to PAC’s home! 🖤🤍

bloody hell, Emi Sakura came to visit to pay her respects

Emi Sakura's twitter (facing away from the PAC memorial)

Text reads:
"Here is the view from here. Too beautiful. I don't think I would have visited this town without his hometown. The moment I left the ticket gate, I realized that the Castle of New Castle meant a castle🏰. You will want to visit this town again in 3 seconds."

Patrick Welsh @pbewelsh.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

So, to reiterate: F*ck Marilyn Manson, and I hope Slipknot do the right thing and drop him before it brings them and metal in general (further) into disrepute, and also the Guardian's cultural output is terrible when it comes to any subject they deem to be beneath them, which is most things

Patrick Welsh @pbewelsh.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

I am appalled that Slipknot are trying to rehabilitate him. The stuff that Manson has admitted to-- jokingly or otherwise-- should be disqualifying for any musician. He sucks. But bringing up every shitty artist in metal in an outlet that never talks about it otherwise is a disservice to the scene
