  • Trying to listen to Supertramp albums on YouTube Music — some of my favourite ever albums — and half the songs are unavailable. Most likely this is down to some stupid fucking copyright issue that only occurs to certain songs or somet. You can see from the screenshots below that half the songs — arguably…

    The Flies are re-grouping

    It’s warm. Really fecking warm. The kind of warm that when you take your t-shirt off, you get that really uncomfortable heat surrounding your head as you take the t-shirt off over your head. It’s also the kind of warmth that throws up the signs outside of every open window — “Flies, inside this way”.…

  • Hospitals and Supermarkets

    What do hospitals and supermarkets have in common? Go on – take a moment to think about it. Got it? No? Well, I’ll tell you.

  • You know what? Fuck Google. Just when I think I couldn’t hate them more. Exporting my previous uploaded music (about 100gb worth) from their Play Music service. Do they put the songs into Artist / Album folders? Nope. Instead they package it up into 54 zipped folders and stick random songs along with loads of…

  • Are you being a fucking idiot?

    (Originally pasted into facebook) I don’t often stick long posts on this god-awful surveillance website, but after hearing about some friends and family suffering, I didn’t want to hold back. If you’re going into shops etc without a mask on when you should wear one, you’re a fucking idiot.If you’re holding personal gatherings when you…

  • Opportunist racism of my morning commute

    Yesterday morning I was witness to a bit of casual racism which really got me annoyed and ready to rage at the dickhead who uttered it. There were no bad words used but, nonetheless, his confused intent got to me. The Setup The train was pulling into the station as I was waiting to board…
