C4 drama "Dirty Business" on the sewage-dumping scandal is a depressing and highly enraging must-watch. If you thought you were angry about it before you'll be even more so after. We need to extract billions back from these cunts and chuck 'em all behind bars for life. And renationalise, obvs.

Just remembered I still have the latest #OffGridPod to listen to, albeit 11 days late. Fortunately, they're not time sensitive, so if you're a wordy/trivia-loving/quizzy/crosswordy type who's late to the party then you have 68 wonderful episodes waiting for you...
Your answer is in the word "and". ;)
People of Norfolk: if you happen to see Andrew Mountbatten Windsor frequenting your local farm shop, gastronomic hostelry or loitering around a posh girls' prep school, be sure not to forget to cast him a distainful look, gob in his face and call him a sweaty nonce.

Thanks. 🙂 I forgot to repost it on Monday, sieve-brained twat that I am.
Quick heads-up for fellow synthheads. If you love the music of @warringtonruncorn.com then you'll probably also love the music of @cravenfaults.bsky.social, whose excellent new album, "Sidings", is out this week.

Just a quick reminder that the #OffGridPod compilation clip show is out. If you enjoy words, trivia, crosswords, quizzes, eclectica, et cetera, then there's bound to be something to divert, fascinate or titillate you.
The "not really about crosswords" #OffGridPod is in its 5th year of diversely digressive diversion. I was General Knowledge's chief researcher on this episode: offgrid.tlmb.net/2025/08/31/a...
If you like #cryptic #crosswords and/or conversational curiosities, give this #podcast a listen in 2026! 📻

No, Bendick's! Dipping Kendal mint cake in dark chocolate and wrapping it in foil does not turn it into a posh chocolate mint. Yeurgh!
I think it's meant to say 'Tucked'.
Time to give this its annual airing and remind all you lovely people to donate to @sheltercharity.bsky.social this festive season...

I'd never discriminate against you because of your inability to pronounce Fs and THs. You can't say fairer than that.

#OffGridPod logo: Two cartoon heads engaged in conversation, with their brains on show. One head's lid is open, and icons representing chemistry, literature, music, film and biology are spilling out from it. Above the heads, a pen labelled "General Knowledge" is writing the phrase "Off-Grid", which is spilling out of the bounds of a crossword grid that pokes into the edge of the image.

Just thought I'd throw out a new #cryptic #crossword. ( @jimjar.bsky.social for one might like it...?) https://tlmb.net/blog/throws/
I'll give it a go when I can. 🙂
This newly released album from the late Gabi Delgado (ex-D.A.F.) and French experimental muso/poet Marc Hurtado, Neue Weltunfassende Resistance, is well worth a listen. More "techno-y" than D.A.F., but with many of the motifs that made Delgado such a pioneer of electronic/industrial music.
Missed your post the other day but just read the b3ta newsletter. Glad you're still with us and that the surgery went okay. Wishing you a speedy recuperation and hope you can get home soon.
It might be a bit early for a drink, but sod it – come join me for a pint on my website, where you can find a bunch of things that I have made in beermat form!
Yes, Google, that's definitely the late Sir Terry, to be sure, to be sure. (cc @bjalborough.bsky.social)
Whole fucking thing makes me sick to my stomach. An abject fucking liar, a man who lies as easily as he fucking breathes, threatening an organisation which strives for truthfulness. And plastic patriots like the Mail and Farage urging him on. Jackels.
