In this essay, I will examine the divergent cultural factors of the UK and the US as exemplified in Charity Shop Sue and Larry the Cable Guy, respectively.

"Stoneblower": my content creation name (nom de goon?), or a piece of Network Rail equipment currently parked in a siding?

@af yeah, it was below Par.

I wonder if twy hards live in Twyford.

You're telling me this Maiden is giving head, GWR?!

A theatre seat showing black wood, a very high backed chair, puce purple fabric, and steep tiers.

A silver sign with a blocky 70s-futuristic typeface that says "Exit to street only" in black ink.

I told the usher at the Gillian Lynne on the way out "these might be the best seats in the West End". She thanked me for enjoying the show.

I don't think she realised I meant the *actual physical seats*. High backs, padded yet firm, wide aisles, and highly raked […]

A view of a cabaret stage at a gay bar, with a sparkly green and red wall, the word Admiral (for Admiral Duncan) in neon red script, and a disco ball bisexually lit. A drag queen in a red and black, rather restrained business dress ensemble, croons into a microphone.

Martha d'Arthur: "We have some lads in from Cardiff tonight. What kind of song should I sing next?"
Boyos: "uh...something Welsh?"
M: grumbles, then starts belting Diamonds Are Forever

#London #soho

I've never seen Real Housewives of London and never intend to, but I'm aware that "Back to Paddington" is a meme.

Anyway, I'm headed back to Paddington.

"The Fate Of Ophelia" does not deserve as many plays as Kings Arms has given it tonight.

Lycan subscribe for more music hot takes.

I was surprised to be able to outrun Lime bike riders on a Boris bike today. I guess I do have thunder thighs after all.

My Neighbour Totoro was bloody brilliant.

Saw a line of 20 pink furry pedicabs outside Matilda as it ended. I told one of the drivers "with this many of you, I thought this was the Mamma Mia theatre". He smiled and laughed :)

Skimbleshanks, Rumpleteazer, Grizabella, & co. were in the Gillian Lynne Theatre from 1981 until 2002, where I'm seeing My Neighbor Totoro today.

They've gone from Cats to Catbus.

Unsure whether the densest thing in my rucksack at present is my heavy chain link necklace or my ThinkPad.

It's an incredibly lush-sounding album. Lovely string arrangements.

There's a lot of good here, besides "Sauna" I'm also digging "Don't You Know Who I Am" and "Love You For".

I still don't love "Ride" and "I Could Get Used To This", perhaps it's just their lack of lead single energy.

"If you wanna last longer,
I don't need faster, I need stronger,
take you to the sauna"

NOW WE'RE TALKING!

Superbloom day. I've found the singles to be perfectly nice but overly subtle so far.

Will Jessie Ware's latest be a banger-free zone? Stay tuned.

(in a strong Aussie accent) ANAGRAM indicator!

Hivemind: any recommendations for places to eat in Shoreditch?

Wait, so Allbirds isn't an RSPB-like avian enthusiasts club?!

"Please enjoy a song from the lesbian Afro-Norwegian Funk duo, Nefertiti's Fjord."

Now playing at Tesco Express: Shanice - I Love Your Smile

Email: "Update 9. We're sorry for the incorrect information again, here's a corrected version."

Get it right the first time, you fools! Billy Joel even sang about this in 1977:
"I've gotta get it right the first time
That's the main thing, oohh oohh
I can't afford to let it pass
You get it […]

Colleague doing half of the work I am: "I'm not able to take anything else on today."

Me: "My ass."

I've had too much coffee this morning, so my coworkers should buckle up.

They call him Kai Ryssdal because he has the rizz (ryss).

Interesting timing for news of new Madonna, after hearing Vogue for the first time in ages around this time last week.

Glad I used what I call the Rent Conversion Factor (diving by 🎵 525,600 minutes 🎵) to prove something was amiss.

A push notification from the Eurostar app that saya "Near, far... Get there with Eurostar 🎤 Book train tickets to Paris for the Céline tour".

Wait...does Eurostar know I'm a Friend of Dorothy?!
