I regret to inform you that “1979” by Smashing Pumpkins was released in 1996, which is now 30 years ago. Meaning a similar song released in 2026 would be called “2009”

Day 3: Explosions In The Sky - Your Hand In Mine

Went through a strong post-rock phase in the mid-00s ("Vocals?A chorus? That‘s yesterday‘s music!") but there was a lot of great stuff around. The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place is still one of my fav albums.

The British Museum posted Al slop and quietly deleted it. Here's what it was and why it matters.

Day 2: Radiohead - Airbag

Narrowly missed out for my Radiohead top 30 (spoiled for choice), but definitely worth mentioning here. Great way to open an album.

Thank you @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social
for bringing Liam back to his friends and families.

He endured more than any 5-year-old ever should. Now more than ever, we need to get ICE out of Minnesota.

As a working-class boy, it was massively inspirational seeing all the working-class singers, actors, directors, playwrights dancers and artists that were visible and successful.
Now it’s appalling to see the way in which we’ve been shut out almost completely. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

My fave Kubrick anecdote: David Prowse on acting in A Clockwork Orange:
'So you want me to carry Patrick Magee, who weighs 17Olbs, plus the wheelchair, another 30lbs, so 200lbs, down the stairs & then do a dialogue scene?'
'Yeah, you can do it.'
'I know but your name isn't One Take Kubrick, is it?'

On this day, 2 years ago. I sat in bed and said to myself, 'Why haven't you finally made that compilation of Jim McDonald from Coronation Street, absolutely battering people to Motörhead? So I did.'

Enjoy! It will forever be my greatest contribution to society.

An entire political movement founded on uncovering hidden messages in documents to discover the powerful secret pedophiles and meanwhile the powerful pedophiles out here sending gmails saying "Hi fellow pedophile when are we meeting to do pedophilia again"
Disgusting.

In an email on Sept. 11, 2013, Mr. Richard Branson, founder of the Virgin Group, wrote to Mr. Epstein, “It was really nice seeing you yesterday.” He added: “Any time you’re in the area would love to see you. As long as you bring your harem!”
