Trying Julie & Julia as it's on Netflix, having not seen it before and I hear good things about these two young up and comers in the acting game Meryl Streep and Stanley Tucci.

Just discovered the videos of Taylor Momsen stepping up to do the lead vocals for Soundgarden and bloody hell, she's not Chris Cornell (which is like saying any choral composer isn't Mozart) but she's seriously really good. Anyway, enjoy and keep stepping up x. youtu.be/jgwshUJNbmU?...

Also James, MI6, your employers are a whole agency full of fucking spies, of course they know things about you that aren't in the public domain, that's very much their job, you dolttopus.

Good lord but Jonathan Pryce's villain has such low rent aims and spiel in his evil cabal meeting.

Also listening to the episode whilst I was working today and @smershpod.com 's take on The Lone Ranger was funnier and better than I suspect the film itself could ever be.

Big mug of tea and Tomorrow Never Dies kicking off on the DVD, that'll do really.

I know we've got a day and a little bit to got, but I think now is the perfect time to prep for waking up Billy Jo Armstrong, get some nice tea ready - assam perhaps, a blanket, a good book, that sort of thing so he doesn't get shock the poor love.

Honestly the crash out at the end of Dolorosa by Mineral might be the most emo thing ever in song. Power of Failing is an absolute belter of an album.

Everyone I Know is Dying by Emily Slapper - dark, rough and gritty dealing with suicidal thoughts and actions, eating disorders, self harm and mental health but some light amongst the darkness and a great very uncomfortable read. www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

realizing i never posted it here….but too long have we been limited by the 2-dimensional political alignment chart. i think by using my new tool we can truly map another person's politics. here it is: The Ideology Cube

Also in the spirit, I got to tell two of my friends at work today that I love them, and if that's cringe, stuff it, give people the flowers whilst they're here x.

Also now fighting off Sunday scaries by watching Eddie Izzard: UnRepeatable, a show I taped off late night channel 4 aged 15/16 and it was transformative in terms of my sense of humour.

Having watched the motion picture last night, I discovered that the novel Fight Club has not one but two sequels in the form of comic book series and fuck me sideways the plots... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fight_C...

Was listening to Soundgarden's 'Badmotorfinger' CD in the car today and it's a belter. Love how the intro to Rusty Cage is being played like the guys realised they left the kettle on at home and needed to rush things through to get back to pour a cuppa or two.

Watching FC now knowing what one knows going into a repeat viewing, the Ed Norton Helena B-C scenes are especially interesting.

Watching Fight Club for the first time in years, and I think Marla might be the only likeable character and that's touch and run away at the best of times.

Actually felt like I have some haring some adventures in air frying worth sharing for the first time in forever, so tonight's supper, a pork loin steak from Waitrose in some of their paprika and blended chili butter with fries.

Today's listening in the car CDs - Dirty by Sonic Youth and United by Fate by Rival Schools, both absolute corkers.

Having to cook supper for oneself again and eating it in front of the telly is a dashed shame of a comedown.

Home now after a fantastic few days away, cold drink some chocolate digestives and listening to Nine Inch Nails. Seeing the parents tomorrow to swap holiday photos and in the office Monday so hopefully any post -hols crash will be forestalled.

Excellent night to wrap up a rather good dat, flat iron steak and a caramel blondie with ice cream that made me want to do a little happy dance as I left the restaurant followed by two fine old fashioneds.

Back in the hotel room with a cup of tea and a cookie before bed as the night is late and full of young people out enjoying themselves. Disgraceful business 😏 Anyway, a splendid day so mentally I'm taking the win. Night gang x.

Did though pop to The St Peter's Tavern earlier, a splendid old Church conversion job run by a local pub co. Good pint of Neptune's Mako hazy pale ale too. Also beery reflection, but there's a lot of cask Ossett about.

Having a post dinner pint in The Lime Kiln, a rareish beast, a Lloyds #1 bar branded Spoons with music playing, having a pint of Phoenix Brewer'a Arizona pale ale. Will go somewhere for local indieness tomorrow but this was close and plenty of seats.

Lovely walking tour this afternoon. Lasted the best part of three hours but absolutely flew by. Now to pick a nice pub for a pint and then somewhere for pizza or pasta.

Breakfast at Wreck Bistro this morning, the happiest breakfast has made me in some while. I mean, phwoar
English breakfast tea, white toast with posh butter and a smoked bacon and black pudding roll.

In the Red Lion with a pint of Ossett Yorkshire Blonde and my book. Sometimes I'm just so rock and roll I scandalise myself.

However the stroll about town I had this afternoon was very nice in the sunshine, hell of a mist/fog about across the Mersey mind you.

I don't ask much for buskers apart from hours of blissful silence, but when doing it down on Liverpool's waterfront, if you're going to mess up the tune of Let it be like that, you're really going to regret where I suggest Penny Lane should be.

And thuslywise the book I shall be reading as I embark on my Liverpool trip tomorrow will be Everyone I Know is Dying by Emily Slapper.
