Quick one — I’m making a documentary, Three and a Half Minutes of Fame, about what it really takes for bands to succeed today compared to the 90s. Gigs, near-misses, fandom, all of it.
Would love if you had a look and maybe shared it — every bit helps! 🎸

I'm entirely convinced that half a generation of people missed out on learning to cook during lockdown and just made crappy student food and ordered takeaway instead - AND THIS - is the entire reason most viral "food" is awful slop you couldn't pay me to eat.

Long shot but if you still have issues with vodafone net right now and have a vpn installed (eg "conncted, no internet") try turning the vpn on - seemed mine flushed away the problem where windows could not and now things are back to normal.
