Fan-made AI-powered photo-real Star Wars animations based on canon content set between the films are my main barometer of how good that tech is getting month to month and these ones are pretty freakin' wild (tho could now be said every few months indefinitely..?): www.youtube.com/@starwarslos...
The Spotify version is older but does currently have a few more tracks. It won't update it any more but it's here open.spotify.com/playlist/65x...
Listening to Sample Parking Day And Night, my occasionally updated playlist of tracks that have been sampled on, usually more well known dance, pop and rap bangers, anthems and deep cuts alike. Very 60s/70s-heavy natch, over 180 tracks and now on Apple Music: music.apple.com/gb/playlist/...
Goin' in on Delta And The Diddymans
Tired: Border Czar
Wired: Crime Pope
Although it made it look kinda boring* I love the explanation for the greyscale realm.
*almost everything looks boring in this DV version tho
They're showing a replay of David Byrne on the Coachella live channel now so that is on.
Screenshot of my graphic depicting the United States mens national football team strip for the 2026 World Cup.
OK this one took way too long...but that's reasonably close to the real pattern for now 🫠
Screenshot from my Mac showing ten team strip designs for the 2026 World Cup including Argentina, Germany, Mexico and Spain.
Doing some World Cup team strip graphics so I can put them on statjam.uk/wc26. Time-consuming and as yet devoid of more accurate details but satisfying. Template adapted from the excellent colours-of-football.com (who will get around to them himself but probably not until after the tournament).
If Bonus 2 is as good as the title...
VAMOS!
1. Quevedo - Ni Borracho (Spain, 2026)
2. Lola Indigo & Kidd Voodoo - Q Somos? (Spain, 2025)
3. Jennifer Viban - Miracles (England, 1986)
I wish they would pop over. The good ones.
How weird yet wonderful to see Chris and Neil playing the not-big Electric Ballroom tonight (where Neil said they saw Bronski Beat in '84). Here's a bit of one of my favourite ever 'Track One's.
real sickos vibe from biffo here
If elected I will brig for three days anyone referring to "the full force of the law" (unless complaining about it like me now).
"We're gonna need a bigger boat! Y'know, to kill Jaws...Jaws the shark."
Worth another repost as most tickled by the spectacle of the detached exhibition house built in the shadow of Kings Cross station in the 1930s, seemingly opposite the spectacular St. Pancras.
The Village of Tomorrow at the 1934 Ideal Home Exhibition was a showcase of modernist housing, put up by builders looking to entice home buyers into modernist living. Out went pitched roof and tiles, in came sun decks and white walls. Read more here www.modernism-in-metroland.co.uk/blog/the-vil...
Something very odd about the complete lack of highlights videos on YouTube for yesterday's UEFA play-offs, even the ones shown on the BBC. Is GALA demanding more money or something?
A version of the popular This MF image meme with one caption accusing Tom of going back to Back To The Planet.
Sorry can't resist..
Not really a turmeric lover but need to get some into my lemon ginger tea.
Learned a few things here - one of those tracks that seems simpler than it is and you can know 'enough' about for most of your life but really enjoyed Gyu's exploration once again.

Him dying by choking on a hot dog would be...well I'm just saying the perfect meme has existed for years.
Got a huger than expected faux-nostalgic rush simply from inserting '4 My Peepz (Stabbed)' into this mix in progress (tho probably too early tbh) and this is absolutely not even live. A lot hinges on what it segues to/from but I would probably have exploded had I actually heard it out in '98.
Full video or I cannot accept this took place (without me).
In Mario Kart Wii, crashing the game and activating the crash handler will eventually start playing back the contents of the Wii's RAM as sound. Since the data was never intended to be interpreted like this, it ends up sounding like experimental harsh noise music.
Mad Dog Time (aka Trigger Happy) from 1996. An amazingly bad film (with an amazingly bad box office return) given its cast. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mad_Dog...
Screenshot from JustWatch app showing that both the 80s sitcom Bread and a 1918 Bolshevik propaganda film are not available to stream on any service.
What a double bill this would be, sort it out streamsters.
Tried Reaper the other day not bad and also thought about Suno which looks gorgeous but would drag one into the AI rabbithole too easily I fear.
