New platform, still macro/markets but with some of the personal as well. Opinions all mine. Former journo. Used to live in Tokyo and HK. Call me deacon blues. Boring gay dude. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
Time to rewatch Derry Girls

I love Radiohead but Kid A became hitched to 9/11 and In Rainbows with the GFC (I mean House of Cards). It’s complicated.

Obsessively watching all the YouTube videos of the Radiohead gigs lately. Damn maybe I should have paid up.

Actually enjoyed my beyond meat burgers for Thanksgiving 🙈 hope you’re having a great one!

Love that Radiohead is still doing so much of The Bends on this tour. Still one of my favs of all time.

When you’re rushing to finish compliance training on a Saturday night when others went to that Radiohead concert on the other side of town

After such a disastrous week, it is weird to flex more on immigration and refugees. I guess an inspirational speech isn’t his thing.
maybe if he takes more consultant advice to move to the right on immigration he can turn those numbers around

Yes ⬇️
The point isn’t that people were ever calm and wise, it’s that the systems around us used to dampen emotional spikes, now they amplify them. Human nature is constant, but the information architecture is different, and that shift matters politically.

Terrific, thought-provoking piece by @chrisdillow.bsky.social:

Much of our political culture is fundamentally incompetent.

Kind of amazing to think this Labour government has only been in office 16 months
