I read that someone is about to become a trillionaire. I think money changes its nature in that kind of quantity, like space and time near a black hole. What’s the point? It’s not so you don’t have to worry about restaurant bills.

Someone just commented they found Waiting for Godot sometimes boring. I never found it boring. But I just tried to watch my second Bergman film this week, and realised it’s very mannered and the existentialism is right up front. I might be in the wrong mood for it.

PSA: me not commenting on something does not mean I am "complicit." First of all, you need to log off and touch grass. Secondly we are total strangers so call your therapist. Thirdly there are 1,000 things happening every day and I am busy. Finally what exactly do you want me to do about it?

My complaint to Bristol City Council about flags - it's the third time they'e gone up on my street. Not sure the solution to that, but I mentioned a street in Wigan that has council-installed flags above the shop fronts with other countries mixed in. Very different effect.

Dreamt President Trump came to my workplace where I ended up sitting in a room on my own with him. I tried to interview him, confident I’d be able to do this in my own way. His responses were desultory however, he wasn’t really interested in talking to me.

Cover of a Kindle edition of Ulysses which for some reason is classed under "science fiction/alternative history" on Amazon. Although this scene would have been science fiction at the time the book is set.

"PhD-level experts in your back pocket" is a completely nonsensical description of AI but a pretty good description of social media if you follow the right people

“Safety concerns of the bar staff” means a whole ethnic group blocked from performing at this venue. Looks like direct racial discrimination to me.

I could swear I was at Glastonbury in 1989, but looking at the line-up I didn’t see a single major act.

Charli xcx vs Neil Young. It doesn’t need to be a competition. We’ve all got more than one screen.
