DJ-ed at a wedding once when the truth about Ian Watkins' crimes were well known, and the groom and his mates still kept asking me to play Lostprophets (I was a friend of the bride).

Is it weird that I'm kind of impressed as well as thinking he's a fucking moron?

In my opinion it’s time to retire the Nobel prizes for fields where most of the important discoveries have already been made, like physics, and add prizes for newer fields where substantial innovations occur every year, like speedrunning

Unsolicited Slick Rick

The rapper Slick Rick sat on a leopard print couch. He has an eye patch and lots of gold jewellery.

If I end up being too ill to go and watch GOOD BOY tonight I shall be most upset.

Apparently they're a different thing in the States, and a Great British Bake Off episode where they made flapjacks has caused some consternation over there.

A friend who runs a craft beer pub pointed out that this is basically the government saying "Oh, your industry is collapsing? Well just work harder then!"

His suggestion was subsidised energy bills, which I suspect sounds too much like socialism to the current Labour Party.

Dan Pop-o-matic but spooky 👻🎃🦇 @danpopomatic.bsky.social · 2d

While I'm obviously all for trying to save pubs etc, surely there are better steps that can be taken before this? Like reducing duty on alcohol, sorting National Insurance contributions and reducing energy bills?

Second gig in a row at the Hallamshire where the sound hasn't been great. It's a shame, because it's a nice room, but they need to sort that out.

Dan Pop-o-matic but spooky 👻🎃🦇 @danpopomatic.bsky.social · 14h

Yep, totally forgotten that was from a film (if I ever knew).

Well yeah, but like I say I barely know them. Think I've accidentally bumped into them once in the last four years.

Dan Pop-o-matic but spooky 👻🎃🦇 @danpopomatic.bsky.social · 14h

Seen it happen with Pinkpantheress as well, a woman who is all of 24 years old.

There's this weird thing some fans of female pop stars have of calling the object of their obsession "mommy", and it creeps me the fuck out. One Swiftie of my acquaintance did it on Facebook the other week and it took everything I had not to point out that she's at least a decade older than Swift.
