I'm a man who doesn't know.
I always preferred Blur personally.

Mrs L earlier today - "Oh, guess what film is on the telly this afternoon? It involves nuns, mountains and Nazis".

Really excited to say that I’ll be part of @SkyNews’ US election night. I’ll be presenting from our very own magic wall, with the best data team in the business.
Time to geek out.
Musk's Twitter takeover has now been dubbed as the 'worst for banks since the 2008 crash'.
“Elon Musk’s Twitter acquisition is backfiring spectacularly, trapping banks in debt, driving advertisers away, and threatening Tesla’s stability”
Nick Cave makes a brief cameo appearance in the film as a bar singer.
3/3
The film is slow and ponderous with bleak cinematography. The melancholic soundtrack matches the mood of the film perfectly.
Highlights:
- Rather Lovely Thing
- Song For Jesse
- Song For Bob
2/3

Cover of soundtrack album to The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford composed by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis.
No. 1 in a series of my favourite soundtracks. The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford composed by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis tends to be my go to soundtrack.
1/3 🧵
Calling medical Bluesky people. Presumably a rotator cuff injury heals at some point? It's been weeks and no sign of it getting much better.
The Obamas certainly know how to work a crowd.
Culture is soft power in a networked world. Never more so in a world where maturing, stronger nations race up the economic value chain. Philistinism isn't 'common sense'. It's long-term suicide.

Civil war in the Fens in full swing.
It seems me and my other half have hit on a regular routine when trying choose a film to watch. Spend half an hour plus flicking through trying to find a film we can agree on. Finally find one with that actor we like.
Get half way through the film before we realise we have seen it before.
Strange how these self proclaimed champions of free speech don't like it when that free speech damages their fragile ego.
Hi David, good to see you over here!
My two favourite politics podcasts at the DNC this week. I'm wondering if the streams will cross at some point....
My son is 19, Autistic, Non Verbal & has profound learning disabilities.
He cannot read or write, dress himself or use a toilet.
Today I am taking him to the Job Centre because applying for Universal Credit requires him to attend.
It’s hard to imagine anything less appropriate for his needs
Good blog this. Suella Braverman - hardly a figure of significance or substance who is going to pack out a room at CPAG earned £60,000 on the international speaking circuit, basically the same as she'd get for being leader of the opposition.
