The “Surprise Me” feature is fantastic. Last night I sat on an old site where a couple had blogged their lives since 1996, their travels, hobbies etc. It stopped last year. Not sure if they’ve since passed, but it was gorgeous. Then another site with symphony orchestra on wax cylinder recordings.
@blindboyboatclub.bsky.social Grounding was brilliant again last night Blindboy, thank you so much for opening your world up to the wider world. I fell asleep towards the end so I’m restarting it this morning.
Staying up for @blindboyboatclub.bsky.social @bbcradio6musicbot.bsky.social. Got some cool lights and lasers on the go and of course a bit of Boldy. Nice set from Riley & Coe before too.
Wishing @blindboyboatclub.bsky.social a big broken leg for the first his episodes of BBC 6 show Grounding. I have thoroughly enjoyed it so far and thank you for the recommendation.

There have been more and bigger - by far - protests for Gaza in the UK than anti-immigration ones. And yet, if you relied on media coverage you’d reasonably conclude that the anti-immigration ones represent the ‘real’ majority in this country.

Racist riots and pogroms don’t happen in a vacuum.
Blindboy Abby Oliveira would be a class shout for Derry. She’s a poet and spoken word artist and could take you down a hole or two. That podcast last week was phenomenal, in my top 5.
I am absolutely furious, furious that And Just Like That has been cancelled! Just dumped halfway through the arc!

Careful out there Ellen!
I’m scheduled to work outdoors in Belfast tomorrow night. If that asbestos fire is lit, I will pursue legal action against the Department of Health and any other responsible parties. Consider this formal notice. #BelfastAirCrisis #AsbestosAlert #PublicHealthHazard #BelfastCityCouncil

The first part of the @blindboyboatclub.bsky.social this week is talking about the seagulls on the roof of his work and I just can't stop singing this Jamie Dornan song when I hear "Seagulls on the roof". I know it's a very serious issue, but Jamie Dornan singing about seagulls lol.

[Photo Thread] Mid East Antrim Pride in Ballymena
And it's becoming so hard to tell the difference between what is real and what isn't.
Just realising I haven’t fully listened to this episode of @blindboyboatclub.bsky.social podcast. I think I was too freaked out in April 2020 to want to hear anything to do with quantum mechanics.

@brewcoxy.bsky.social and I stood as a man standing like a meter away from us said it was good that "the Filipinos" are fleeing Ballymena because the empty houses might go to locals.
It is an attempt at a racist pogrom and it is being directed annually now by the same actors using the same formula.

The only thing certain in the wake of the pogrom in Ballymena is that every politician offering lip service to "genuine concerns" will continue to leave that town an underfunded shithole with no housing and crumbling services as they have always done.
But now they'll blame Romanians for it.

If instead of fining water companies money, they were fined shares, they'd either have to do the job they've been paid for or lose the company piece by piece.
Re-nationalisation at no cost to the public.
If Thames Water can pay its "record fine" by passing the cost on to its customers, how is that a punishment?

(Presumably they'll just tack a few more quid onto every bill.)
Better still BB, interview Brenda, she’ll tell you a thing or two without beating about the bush.
I need to listen to the whole thing again, I've been too distracted.
