Dude..

Aside from the veritable horseshit this tweet contains I’m drawn to stating the unarguable fact that anyone’s moral high ground is immediately in tatters when they are using a website owned and ran by an actual nazi.

Last night we did a session for Riley & Coe on @bbc6music.bsky.social You can listen back on @bbcsounds.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m00318jq

Good lad 🍀

You know how I keep saying the Times paywall is basically a rattling trapdoor over the demon realm? Well

When Israeli extremists arrived in Qusra seeking to evict Palestinians from their hilltop homes, residents hoped the IDF would come to their aid. Instead, the soldiers drank coffee and prayed with the assailants.

Blood on a lot of hands over this.

I have 14 hours to sell 3 tickets for my show tonight, then it’s officially sold out. Be the change: www.edfringe.com/tickets/what...

Mogwai are on a 30th anniversary tour, hitting festivals across Europe and the UK next month. The Scottish post-rockers recently played Fuji Rock in Japan, where guitarist Stuart Braithwaite spoke with Stereogum VJ Winter about daydreaming and pedals (which sometimes go hand in hand).

I'm old enough to remember Starmer pledging to abolish the House of Lords and today he's appointing 26 new members that we all have to pay for.

This was chaos the last time I asked but I’m ready…. Who is making good music videos (that don’t cost a fortune) these days? 📺 🤷

Smashing

Extremely wealthy podcast presenters absolutely whoring themselves, hawking utter garbage on their shows gives me absolute full body cringe. Let’s make selling out embarrassing again please.

For the record there was nothing audacious about it at all. We thought it was funny that someone would say that about our band and we put it at the start of the record for a laugh 🤷

The Suffragettes literally did bombing and arson, markedly more violent than Palestine Action

Ok, let me get straight. At 16 you can get married and join the army but you can’t check instagram before you go to bed. Riiiggght

Peter Murrell is rightly going to be jailed for his crimes. Meanwhile Michelle Mone who stole *checks notes* £122 000 000 from ALL OF US roams free.

I’ve been absolutely disgusted by the concerted effort to blame Nicola Sturgeon for her husbands crimes. As someone who’s actual money was stolen for that clepto wanker to buy a camper van that he hid at his parents house, the notion that the 1st minister was complicit is preposterous.

Also, if you borrow an author's book from a library in the UK, that author gets more than 12 pence per loan in Public Lending Rights. Any author can earn up to £6,600 per year this way. That’s more than I’ve been paid by any publisher this year.

Let me tell you bout my best friend,!! This is Mr Nicks and he’s a 3-4 year old rescue super star #adoptdontshop

It must be so emotionally difficult if your entire thing is "Tony Blair was the best PM we ever had, you should listen to me," when the real Tony Blair keeps popping up to remind everyone he's a weird, racist freak whose only lesson for governance is "get elected before the 2008 crash."

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - if these fascist creeps ever win a UK election Scotland should immediately declare independence.

Scottish duo Arab Strap (Aidan Moffat and Malcolm Middleton) have announced a new album, "Half-Told Tales" on Rock Action, and shared its first single, “You You You,” which tackles aging, among other things, with their signature dark humor. www.undertheradarmag.com/news/arab_st...

Top notch disco from the ever upbeat Arab Strap youtu.be/1VeBhMvzdKA?...

I love Celtic ❤️🍀

There are very few people in politics or public life as profoundly unimpressive as Keir Starmer. Unfortunately for us Wes Streeting is definitely one of them.

Tonight! I'm in #edinburgh on my Punk Rock Ruined My Life’ memoirs tour with special guest Stuart from Mogwai. We had a great night in Galashiels last night! Last few tickets from louderthanwar.com/john-robb-me...
