I love this: “I thought it was my job to learn everything I could about the band before some more technically capable producer fucked it all up and took the fun and danger out of it” (Elvis Costello on producing The Specials)

‘A blur of legs, arms and adrenaline’: the astonishing history of two-tone
As a new exhibition documents the UK ska-pop sound, stars including the Specials, Elvis Costello and Pauline Black recall how it opened up music, fashion and racial understanding

If I had a dollar for every time someone has predicted their comeuppance I’d be richer than that asshole Musk

“Generalissimo Franco is still dead.”

I predict the name in this line is gonna be replaced soon by one with a more tangerine tinge. And the sooner the better.

I was asking myself this morning: which language has the worst orthography in the world? Chinese or Irish? (Mandarin or Gaelic?)

I would argue it’s Gaelic.

Great! Sadly the lecture notes are not available outside of LMU, but the lectures themselves are very clear, so no big deal.

If you’re interested in discussing any of the material, I’d be happy to. It gets quite challenging at times.
