MRI on my bonce this morning just to check on the state of things before my next chemo cycle (starts on the 9th). Feeling very well so not overly anxious they’ll find anything extra in there - but it’s always a concern.

Enjoying some of the greatest music ever written over here. Glorious! I need to see this in person. Even better: playing it!

Watching Nuremberg. Russell Crowe is amazing in this! Didn’t even realise it was him earlier in the film

Loving Amsterdam! What a brilliant, beautiful city. The Van Gogh museum is a particular delight.

Anyway, back into my shell. Family time this week. No politics!

Meant to quote that. Same in the UK. Real change is so difficult because we’re β€˜led’ by visionless suits who are slaves to corporate needs

I do think there’s a certain type of Democrat that realizes it’s possible we are dealing with a perfect storm where almost any Democrat will win, and are terrified we might nominate radical candidates who will actually engage in needed change instead of status quo corporate centrist bullshit.

I hope everyone’s day goes well. I can see sunshine!

Loving this album! Good vibes throughout. My favourite band discovery in 2025 - Seawater is such a superb album - and these older songs are brilliant too.

Yorkshire band, so of course they’re good

Looks like I’m having a sweary day. The current news cycle seems conducive to making me cross about a lot of things. Time to turn it off & find things I enjoy - like listen to the new Mostly Autumn compilation album (which is great)

Well. Jim Radcliffe can get royally fucked. Utterly objectionable opinion. If you agree with him, feel free to get lost too. I’ve got no time for xenophobic idiots

I love the Winter Olympics. So much going on! Brave idiots willfully attempting to injure themselves in entertaining ways
