Achievement unlocked: landed a core funding grant for a small charity. I am unreasonably chuffed.

There’s now a thread on the facebook group for people to post their step counts and this is about the middle of a range going up to 187k, which given that I’m not exactly renowned for taking these things easy is pretty fucking terrifying
My watch claims that I've taken 126,312 steps this weekend, and, because it doesn't have a concept of "dancing", thinks I've.. walked? run? 121.7km. I think that's a pretty decent weekend's raving, at any rate.

Thanks, AI Drive-By, I do appreciate your implicit suggestion that at 3.4g/cm³, hummus is denser than aluminium

DJ questions to the audience are like barristers: only ask questions when you're sure you know what the answer will be, or it goes bad.
"Are you ready?!" - Nah mate just popping to the bar first
"Do you want some MORE?" - Not of this stuff, no, we preferred the earlier part of the set

DJs yelling at you to do stuff is much less annoying when they give you a reason:

“Make some noise!” - Play some music you wanker

“Make some noise for the site crew!” - hell yeah, great work folks

“Put your hands in the air!” - why?

“Put your hands up for Detroit” - yes sir absolutely sir

People say I’m hard to please but honestly all I need is a big room with space to dance, some giant fucking lasers, and, once in a while, someone to drop “The Prophet” by CJ Bolland

Slightly disappointed that Phil Hartnoll is on the lineup under his own name and not as eg “North Circular”

Also from last night: a protest from pressure group “Just Use Oil”.

An act we wanted to see was replaced at the last minute by Altern-8, whose oeuvre I adore but whose last few live acts have been.. spotty? Anyway the other room had someone billed simply as “Farrah” who was just non stop awesome.

Hello I am in the very silly place again. They are apparently removing someone’s brain onstage beneath the flying saucer and replacing it with an ALIEN BRAIN which has an amen break instead of brainwaves.

Lots of people are dunking on the “Nobody knows what magnets are” business but none of them are providing a concise explanation of the spin statistics theorem.
