Yesterday I fulfilled a dream and saw Stevie Winder in concert and it was as thrilling and exciting as you might imagine. He did 2.5 hours and did 28 FULL songs, no medley shit.

I listen to much less rap now than ever. But I popped in to try the new Nas/Premier album as Premo is probably my favourite beat maker. What I’m not going to do is listen to Nas rapping about his stock portfolio and Nvidia. No sirree.

I made a Chrome extension that swaps Times New Roman for Calibri on every site or just .gov. It also had Open Sans and Open Dyslexic, because f**k these people.

I’m waiting for Google’s approval for it to install automatically, but you can download it and install it in 90 seconds. Instructions 👇

Leeds is a good raconteur and a reliable witness to the foibles and profound musical impact of James Brown. Really enjoyed it and recommend it for its evocation of a time and place as well as its insight into Brown’s towering character.

New Statesman reporting Reform politicians are avoiding head to head debates with me.

Their lies come crumbling down when confronted with the truth.

Let's keep building the movement to take on Reform:

Anyone in or near London fancy joining me on Friday evening? I don’t want any money, just for the ticket to be used.
Any London/S East folks fancy this? I was supposed to go with my wife but she’s had OFSTED in this week and is knackered. It means having to sit, and interact, with me but I don’t want any money for it. I just want some company and for the ticket to be used.
