Adelaide-ians! We/I are/am in you (and playing tomorrow). Can you help me out? I need (a) great veggie sushi recommendations and (b) a hat, perhaps one exhibiting a local record store or self-sabotaging label. Thanks!

and i've been hoping to eat a chili pepper that will do this to me ever since
29 years ago today, Homer Simpson had an epic chili pepper-induced hallucination. “El Viaje Misterioso de Nuestro Jomer” first aired January 5, 1997.

Most of the sequence was animated completely by David Silverman as he wanted it to look exactly as he had imagined it.

Such a good-looking version of an edible mushroom, but don't do it (the green-spored parasol chlorophyllum molybdites, found in my brother's backyard, NSW, Australia) #fungi #mushroom

Such a brilliant debut album from a soulful blues voice (that you've never heard), still listening all these years later

Just realised that 2025 was the year that I'm leaving in a content overload mental state.
Have added tonnes to the book, tv/film, & music to-do lists and made fuck-all of a dent in any of them.

Still, good to have options, right?

1. mclusky - the world is still here and so are we

superb return to form, like they've never been gone, and the live transition of these songs was seemless, adding to the wealth of an already stellar catalogue, aoty.

Listening habits etc means I've only got the two albums that I've properly listened to, and enjoyed, and doesn't mean there aren't others I will discover properly later

Plus, just finished the wholesome Back to the Future trilogy with my daughters and that's the kind of stuff that helps you forget the noise.
The Tannen generations alone are simply some of the best, and most enjoyable, cinema acting you can experience.
