I just wasn’t made for these times.

Fed up with the old world order, scared of the new world order.

My annual trip to The Ivy in Brighton yesterday. Lunch at 1pm left at 7pm…

The guy next to me is constantly scratching his head and looking at the results…

I want to die.💀

Left house at 11am. 1 hour and 25 minutes later my train has pulled up at a station 20 minutes drive from my house.

Car stuff on Bluesky. Ironic as I’m currently sat on a delayed train that is packed, dirty and uncomfortable.

Don’t @ me with any environment hot takes. I used trains for 5 days a week for 31 years.

Many people on socmed responding to the Farage racism story with ‘We all said things like that in the 70s’. If you did, you’re one of those who made my childhood miserable much of the time. And if you have no remorse, face facts: you’re (still) a racist.

That second half from Arsenal was fucking sensational. As good as you could possibly hope to put in against a team as good as this.

Bossed it 100%. Madueke with his first goal, and then Martinelli, no less than we deserved. And Bayern offered NOTHING after the break.

Hello Europe, we're Arsenal

I was decent at Fantasy Football. Always top 3 in my work league. This season, mid to lower table. Was whiling away the time in the office last week, started talking FF and apparently I’m shit now cos I’m not using AI. Ffs. 🙄

RIP Mani. Definitely bought the Sunshine to my younger self.

Yes I’m an old man wearing merch from a 2 album band. But they were my band. 20 when they released their first album. I used to be incredibly defensive about them, took any criticism personally! LOL. Still I don’t care about that anymore. Just sad that Mani has passed away.

My youngest 18th birthday today. Just stuck on a playlist on shuffle. 46 hours long, 650 songs and this comes up. Only my parents, both gone, song.

Yeah, it’s coincidental. But give me this one.

On #InternationalMensDay I just want to say that cheese on toast is superior to a cheese toasty as you get double the amount of cheese.

Monday thought. Currently listening to Massive Attack, Inertia Creeps, and maybe at my age I no longer need to seek out new music? Could I, should I, just draw a line under it all and enjoy the sounds I have discovered on my 56 times around the sun?

Got to go to bed. So tired. Listen, I’m far from perfect. I’m just lucky I have people around me to keep me in check. Everyone needs someone. Goodnight.
