David Gladwin - quite frankly one the kindest and best writers on the current Indie scene. Coldwell is a great little novella and well worth your time. Get it now from @roadsongbooks.bsky.social

Imagine you were the richest man in the world. You could have anything you wanted, go anywhere you wished, do whatever took you fancy. How would you spend your weekend? Depriving the poorest people in the world of food and healthcare and boasting about it?

Good luck Eiran Cashin, and thanks for all the commitment and great times during your days as a Ram. The best deal for all concerned, and I wish him nothing but success in the rest of his career. He's earned it. #dcfc #oncearam

Oddly fascinated by the BBC's ability to use accurate language in headlines about Germany, but not the US.

Troy Hawke on Bluesky! Truly this is a great day.

He drives an Austin Ambassador, and that's a very reliable choice. Plus he's one of my heroes. #johnshuttleworth

I like you John. You're very pleasant.

Because every now and then you need to savour the best ever cover of Beyonce's 'Independent Woman's courtesy of Elbow and cats in flat caps in a pub car park. Iconic. youtu.be/zSQDR1yF3uQ?...

Today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day and the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi concentration camp built on the territory of Nazi-occupied Poland. Always remember 👇

Robin Ince and Kurt Vonnegut is a pretty good combination during these strange times. Very nicely done.

Strongly believe it's time Stephen Pearce does an interview with Radio Derby. Maybe he can explain why #dcfc sent Warne into the season with a non-existent strike force, why so little progress has been made in January and clear up rumours of interference in team selection @domjdietrich.bsky.social

We're in an age of manufactured realities. It's some scary shit. Meanwhile, allow me to regale you with how Wayne Rooney took Derby County to their third league title during 2022...

The new year has gotten off to an upsetting start: the L.A fires, ongoing war and devastation, the passing of David Lynch. This masterful poem by Ralph seems to encapsulate all of this in one shocking event, and it's our Sunday pick. www.abctales.com/story/ralph/...

It's the little things in life that bring me the most joy. Namely my daughter, and the silly names I give to inanimate things. What's yours called? #ringdoorbell #geoff

I know where she can stick that hat she's so obsessed about...

Not sure what this says about my current mental state, but it's been quite the week.

a man with a mustache is making a face with his eyes closed

Last night I dreamt I was working in a fast food van at a festival, and the head chef was Matt Berry. He had his Steven Toast moustache on, and was a massive control freak. All his food was over-complicated, and the day was a disaster. At the end though, he tried to rally the troops and cheer us up.

This week's read: the passing of the great David Lynch inspired me to dive back into 'Catching the Big Fish', a marvellous collection of thoughts, memories and ideas. A lovely book to have, from a man who will be greatly missed. #davidlynch #booksky

Ross Lowe @rosschops.bsky.social · 23/01/2025

Jim, I'm almost at the end of The Bygones and it's been a real treat. I read Little Robbie the other evening and it absolutely floored me. A great collection filled with some fabulous storytelling - well done.

I should add that this is a lovely article. A long one, but a lovely one, told by the people who worked with David Lynch to bring Twin Peaks to life.

Not sure I remember the oral scenes specifically, but it was a while ago now. Still, it remains some of the best TV of all time. Damn fine. #twinpeaks #coopercoopercooper

Currently re-visiting this absolute belter of an album from U2. The band have almost disowned it now, it splits fan opinion, but I love it. Maybe because I remember having it on my Walkman endlessly during my morning paper rounds in the 1993 sunshine. Maybe. #zooropa #lemon #u2

This is written by my mate Jane, which means it's going to be insanely good. It'll be on locally at the Notts Playhouse on the 10th and 11th of March. Book now. nottinghamplayhouse.co.uk/events/the-w...

A paper that understands its responsibility, in a country that knows it when it sees it. Impressive from Die Zeit. Refuses to show the salute, but calls it out for what it so obviously was. Headline: “A Hitler Salute is a Hitler Salute is a Hitler Salute”

A screenshot of the Die Zeit website. It is a photo of Musk in black and white doing the Hitler “seig heil” salute - but the actual salute is blocked out by blue material on the left hand side of the photo. The headline is underneath.

Nor is he starting! Still, if he's carrying something then I'd rather he be out for one game than make the issue worse and then miss a bunch of them.
