If Polanski keeps pointing out that the crooks are crooked, the gobshites full of shite - and to their faces - then he's well on the way to showing Labour how they should be governing.

Add in the wealth tax, legalisation/regulation of drugs, standard Green policies...

Right then, one of the biggest holes in my music collection is reggae. I have a few of the obvious ones but looking to broaden my horizons. Post your recommendations below 👇. I’m particularly keen on the heavier dub side of things

Mystery Rolling Power Outages were a psychedelic blues band, formed in Devon, England 1969.

Their only LP, 'Weather is Fine, and the Electric Company Has Sent No Explanations', sold little on its release. But copies now sell for well over £100.

Etc.

Just tried to repost a VA Forestry thing about fire season starting today & IG took my wildfire track down. V weird. This Quaker Run Wildfire event was 100% related to flash drought conditions fueled by global heating.

The Sunn O))) boys! Not the drone ocean of Pyroclasts or the experiments of M+D, but w/ what feels like a return to roots w/ intent. Deceptively straight forward, almost brisk, tension+release trance. Gorgeous huge production capturing every fuzzy detail. sunn.bandcamp.com/album/eterni... #MetalSky

The study of the galaxies reveals a universal order and beauty. It also shows us chaotic violence on a scale hitherto undreamed of. That we live in a universe which permits life is remarkable. That we live in one which destroys galaxies and stars and worlds is also remarkable.

I hope Mr. Jones is suffering terribly, knowing that the laughably corrupt Supreme Court could not be bothered to bail out his irrelevant ass, and grapples for the rest of his life with the horrible person he has been in the service of people and causes that don’t give a shit about him.

Not putting up with the gobshites & the crooks is a good start, Mr Polanski.

They've all got away with it for too long.

Well played.

I recently ran across a letter about Bob Moog pitching his new-fangled modular to our university in 1964 (way before I was born). They bit & he installed it in a room with copper lined walls to shield it. In the 90s we rescued it from an attic, restored it, & I recorded part of my 1st thesis with it
