I just saw someone say “my friend has been pounding me about watching this for years now” and honestly there’s no interpretation of that which isn’t incredibly funny

Sitting at a pub in Brighton where they’re doing karaoke and watching young British people singing songs from ‘Hamilton’ and singing back and forth at each other about Treasury and the State Department is the weirdest possible outcome of the American Revolution I’d honestly not considered before

On top of all the other reasons Spotify is bad, the thing that tells you what age you are is stupid because literally everyone listens to music that was made in the past because that’s all that exists.

There’s the classic “all they know is mcdonald's, charge they phone, twerk, be bisexual, eat hot chip & lie” tweet but today my lived experience is more in line with “McVities, charge phone, get doner kebab, be bisexual, drink hot tea & lie (under blankets because it’s cold and damp out, that is)”

“The White House has eliminated the Department Of Government Efficiency in an apparent cost-saving measure” is a sentence that really feels like it shoulda come from a Heller or Vonnegut novel rather than a news headline, but here we are.

Yknow it’s hard to convince the “both parties are the same” crowd that this is absolutely not true if Democrats *also* insist on promoting misinformation, manipulation of truth, and stirring up fear with scare-words.
86 House Democrats who should really fucking know better now need to be primaried.

Super weird sounds of something rustling about right outside your door at 2:45am:
Stressful, disconcerting.
Discovering it’s just a curious fox:
Adorable, and probably one of the least distressing possible outcomes. 🦊

I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

"Dasha got dropped by Gersh," I say to the elerly woman sitting next to me on the bus. "Can you believe that?" She empties an entire can of mace directly into my face instantly.

Lovely time seeing my cousin Lachlan Bryan with his other band The Pleasures playing London’s Hope & Anchor tonight, and seeing a bunch of family all together for the show.

Genuine shame ‘The Alters’ is being completely overlooked for The Game Awards nominations. It’s one of the most interesting & unique things to come out this year. At the bare minimum, Alex Jordan absolutely deserved to be in the running for best voice performance for playing the various Jan Dolskis.

Hey uhhhhh just real quick, what the goddamn fuck is this? This feels incredibly inappropriate.
Setting aside how insignificant an amount of money most people on small boats possessions would likely be worth it is a horrible look to take away the last possessions of people in awful circumstances.

In case any US friends are worried, despite the very serious dire warning from the President, neither I nor anyone else I know who regularly spends time in / lives in London are getting (and I quote directly) “stabbed in the ass or worse” by immigrants 🤣

Watching ‘The Beast In Me’ and ‘Pluribus’ so close together weirdly makes me want to see Rhea Seehorn and Claire Danes play snarky, combative sisters who either do crimes together or stop crimes together and I can’t tell which.

Alternating between writing a new song that might be the sweetest, sappiest thing I’ve ever written and rewriting an old unfinished song that’s probably the darkest, saddest thing I’ve ever written …and making good progress with both?
Nothing like the muses bestowing a little emotional whiplash. 😅

Sometimes if I’m stuck on a rhyme I’ll look up “rhymes with <blank>” and see if anything sparks. In this case…uh no, Merriam-Webster…I don’t thing “ass-clown” is the tonal match for “drown” I’m going for but thanks for the suggestion.

Holy hell. ‘Pluribus’ might be the best first episode of anything in a while, and Rhea Seehorn is *incredible* in it. Every time you think you know what kind of show you’re watching it surprises. Absolutely a refreshingly bold concept.

It shouldn’t be forgotten that a big piece of Mamdani’s campaign was simply “cities are cool and lots of people enjoy living in them” which in and of itself dismantles alot of rightwing talking points
