The Descent Of Mand – new OGWN out today

After all that’s been said in the Commons today, Sky News has chosen to run that loudmouthed attention-seeking prick Lee Anderson and his bogus points on a loop, just because he strategically got himself thrown out.

Hey @skynewsrss.bsky.social, he’s playing you like a piano.

Interested to know what kind of omniscient AI megabrain the tech guys are going to produce now they’ve decided that large parts of the sum total of human knowledge are “dysfunctional and regressive” and thus invalid.

I’ve been reading these things avidly for 50 years and even I find myself going “WTF is happening here, I can’t remember who’s dead/evil/a different person” all the time.

Chris Sutton saying “well is there anyone who doesn’t sweat at night after a big curry?” on #606 and the entire nation screaming “PRINCE ANDREW” at the radio.

That would be me! Six Degrees of BJTM: My wife used to live upstairs from their sometime manager Adam who is in Dig! describing the band as “the greatest 60s revivalists since…the 60s?”

Hitherto unknown Flash Harry bluesman unearthed by Homicide: Life On The Streets.

Leeds Student newsroom wins again!

Lovely tribute in Music Week, Stokesie.

He was a fucking dude and we all loved him.

Andrew Perry was a true star of the old Select mag gang, an incorrigible enthusiast who loved Lee Perry, Iggy Pop, the Stones and mind-melting acid house alike. He was brilliantly talented and THE best company. He deserved many more years and I will miss him. RIP

5D Chess champion pulls it off again.

Even if you judge the war by MAGA’s own debased and amoral standards, it’s still an utter failure in every respect.

Yes me too. Even the smartest guy in the world can’t budget for the everyday Joe.

Little-known fact but Rorschach actually grew up in the Home Counties, hence that pronunciation.

Thank God that far-right conspiracy pamphlets with zero credibility have no influence on our own, real world 😉

She really really was.
