The Spectator can fuck off. And when it’s fucked off, it can fuck off some more

And other find from @monkemma.bsky.social: Arday blogged all those marathons in real time. I can’t remember the dozens of journalists who told me there’s no evidence he ran them. Are any of you big enough — or good enough journalists — to correct your error?

Always love seeing this because I believe* I invented this graph in 2011. Something I did stuck around! www.mohkohn.co.uk/writing/orga... www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... * if you know of a pre-2011 example let me know and I will stop claiming this

And all young bands want is to produce vinyl and have a real life hard copy of their music

Son’s been in his band for 8 years. Biggest single in over 19 million streams on Spotify. Payment tiny. His shop job gives him the money to be a musician but hardly. Zero hours contract so he can do gigs and record. If he wasn’t in Liverpool I don’t know how he’s afford it x

Don’t ban kids using YouTube. Make YouTube behave like a broadcaster. Pay creators. Reinvest in the creative industries. Pay fair tax back into creators’ economies. Follow guidelines on fair usage and copyright. Play fair. It’s bigger than TV now. Make it behave like TV.

Thinking about that guy who posted that if capsaicin gives the sensation of heat, and menthol gives the sensation of cold then they must counteract each other. Who then posted 30 min later saying don’t try it, it feels like you swallowed Hell fire.

The world’s ten richest people — all Americans — saw their collective net worth increase by $260 billion in April. These ten people are now worth a combined $2.7 trillion. The bottom 50% of U.S. households, 66 million in total, is worth $4.3 trillion. Wondering if inequality is out of control?

Are Christian leaders condemning Trump for his latest AI Trump is Jesus pic? If not, why not?

The right wing Christianity gang that’s rocked up in Liverpool really are a gang of twats. Nick Twathead calls the protesting Christians “demons”. Apparently Jesus wasn’t kind he was “righteous” which makes me think they’ve all been watching Pulp Fiction last night and think they’re Samuel L Jackson

Take indie sleaze, and make it proggy, and you might get Olivier by The Sukis. This is some genuinely creative indie rock that grapples with masking, and the awards you deserve for pacifying neurotypical society. vinylfantasyreviews.co.uk/2025/07/04/s...

SINGLE REVIEW: The Sukis – Olivier
The latest excursion into The Sukis’ brand new era sees them flirting with progressive sounds on this electrifying indie banger.

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

Nowhere in the hysterical pile-on against the BBC in the British press has anyone mentioned that BBC News now has 77 million viewers & listeners in the US and has established itself as the second most trusted news source there.

Today UK authors are protesting against Meta for stealing our work to train their AI model. Authors earn an average of £7000 per year, we are not rich, and yet a trillion dollar company decided it didn’t want to license our work fairly as it was “too expensive” Theft is not a valid alternative.

This is Roo. He is the quaintest little guy to ever live. 12/10 would be delighted to pet
a little black scottie dog pup climbs toward the camera from atop an orange velour chair. natural light beams in from the right, highlighting his dark fur to almost look like shades of blue. he has a tiny gold medallion on his collar that is stamped with his name: Roo.
