Just remembered that I've got about 3000 words on The Donnas sitting on my laptop that I submitted to 33 1/3 but now isn't gonna be used. Thinking of either putting on Punk Rock Philosophy or turning into a zine or mini book- would anyone wanna read it if I did that?

Have you seen Quentin Tarantino making disparaging remarks about Paul Dano? But now everyone's out defending Dano- including me! His role in Little Miss Sunshine is one of my favourites. And now I wanna see There Will Be Blood.

Hello punks! We've got a great interview with Manchester punk duo Sewer Cats up on Punk Rock Philosophy where they talk about what the DIY ethos means in practice and how they were inspired in so many ways by the Minutemen. And they gave a Minutemen top 10! 👇

Did a thing today! Spent some time recording bits for our new podcast (Never Mind the Patriarchy) with @lucynichol.bsky.social 😎 In a proper studio and everything 😀

Interviewed a band about their big punk influence. Can you guess who they chose?

*Formed in San Pedro in 1980
*Song was used as theme to a early 00s MTV show
*Hugely influential and beloved band from the hardcore scene

I reckon this one is easy!

Have this cover on a massive framed print & was on a work call once and someone complained about it (it was behind me) and said the picture was 'vulgar' 😅😅 Had to take it down for the rest of the call.
