Voka Gentle playing at Wanderfal

Been a week since I saw @vokagentle.bsky.social at Wanderfal and can't stop listening to their marvellous Cheddar Man. Not only is it powerful inventive song, its factually right about datums too, which caters exactly to the music nerd/cartographer niche I inhabit.

Thanks for the heads up!

Wait, what? I missed this reboot. Also I recognise that raping strategy so much.

It is so good. I just can't stop revommending it. So glad yoy enjoyed it, and hope the new job is awesome.

133. That's a FInnish Podcast Episode · The Yacht or Nyacht Podcast · April 7 · 1h 22m

New Yacht or Nyacht podcast, just like every Tuesday. Retweet this so folks have a chance to learn about what is and is not yacht rock. Let’s make the world a smoother place. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Former Falmouth band! Remember seeing them at so many gigs around town, around 2009. Must pick up that album!

We missed it too, but was a choice sorta, anxiety! The last Brum Eastercon had a combo of a complete meltdown of the train network (both journeys) and coming down with what turned out to be Covid while standing in a crowded train aisle for two hours on the homeward leg, made me opt out this year.

And the origin story for a whole new science-fiction horror film franchise.

I'm guessing thet didn't have a copy of Moore's Big Numbers #3 as well?

Happy Milan-Sanremo day to all that celebrate!

Another vote for this too @thestorygraph.com Reading so many Runequest books at the moment, and have an extensive backlog of Cthulhu to work through too.

I feek this journey needs to be undertaken with Tangerine Dream's Sourcerer soundtrack blaring.

Signed my voluntary redundancy agreement today so I guess there is no going back now.

I keep forgetting that no matter how dark the world gets and threatens to drag me down into a pit of depression and anxiety that it can always be improved a fraction by the liberal application of Phallus Dei by Amon Düül II.

Those NHS glasses you like are coming back in style

It's okay, a long time coming, and have been expecting it. Going to have some time off before I figure out my next move.

And I guess there is I can re-kickstart my fannish fanzine publishing career after this weekend's FAAN awards win for the Dancing To Architecture fanthology, but I guess I'm really holding out for that freelance Verdant beer reviewing gig.

I guess there is the garden to wrangle back from its current jungle status, but that won't help me clear the backlog of unread comics, books and unlistened to Grateful Dead gigs.

Well looks like I'll be redundant from the end of May, thus ending my fledgling carto/geospatial career.

Still time off to do more important things in life, like try and find a #TTRPG group around #Falmouth #Cornwall with the vague hopes of picking up a #Runequest or #CallOfChulhu game.

How did I not know that was a thing!

And I guess being a prequel, it'll get rid of the extreme "wiggyness" of the recent seasons of For All Mankind.

New BPB real soon now too!

Next time you need a list of creative prompts, why not use the episode titles of charming 1977 ovoid automaton TV cartoon "Ludwig":

Does this in any way involve either tractors or cider?

I love this goofy ass pic of the band so much

Happy to be back doing one of my favorite things: Talking about Grateful Dead live albums that have "Picks" in the title with my best pal Rob Mitchum.

Does anyone I know have a means to get me a sweetshop invite? I’ve been on the waiting list for a while and I’d really love to be able to start getting my couple of monthly digital comics from there rather than amazon.
