Largely socially awkward twat. Mostly talk about music, gaming and wrestling. Am here because the other place is doing fine, obviously. Him/He.

That time of year that no one asked for (well, apart from, I think, 3 people). My albums of the year.

This is so great already. I am loving this one.

OUR BREATH IS NOT OURS ALONE is here! We have poured everything into this album. The world is so profoundly fucked that this could not have been anything but a torrent of fury and grief. There is such an urgent need for people to wake up. album.link/s/3DAFXkSP8R...

Just to be absolutely clear, this is the Labour government, categorically, and unambiguously, stating that human rights are predicted upon where you are born. That's the outcome of this.

Bridget Phillipson, "Labour believes there needs to be reform to the ECHR"

Trevor Philips, "You want to see changes in the ECHR?"

Bridget Phillipson, "Home Secretary Yvette Cooper is looking at Article 8 Provisions to see if they need updating"

maybe if we sang “Free Palestine” to the tune of “Sweet Caroline” we could get more white people on board

This is terrifying. This is what we say when we point out that transphobia and racism lead to actual damage of peoples' lives.

As a cishet middle class white man a lot of people ask me why I "bang on" about trans rights or Gaza or Black Lives Matter.

My response is why don't you bang on about it?

You can’t apologize your way out of involvement with a Harry Potter IP at this point. This isn’t art vs artist. This is continuing to give financial firepower to someone whose whole MO is causing harm to trans folks. Girl, audition for a different project. FFS dedicate that energy to renewing TWoT.

Got woken up suddenly at 6:30 this morning by what, at the time, sounded like loud shrieking.

Opening the curtain to this cutie. I did enjoy the awkward few seconds of us both looking at each, both confused.

Small fledgling bird. I think a Black Cap. A little cutie, but a noisy one!

Happy new Midwife & Matt Jenick, (Old) Pygmy Lush and Open Mike Eagle release day, to those who celebrate.

I realise I don't know the full context of this, but now I really want you to host a really weird game show.

Hideo Kojima has an amazing idea for a "Forgetting Game" where the main character gradually forgets important information and abilities if you take too long a break from playing.

Also playing right now. It is very good. I've missed a lot of their stuff since 2020, but this is great.

Oh awesome! Nick Wayne and MAO both in Best Of The Super Junior's this year. So many dream matches possible with MAO in particular.
