    Flights of fancy

    I was walking down an alley on the way to work today and there was a person about twenty feet ahead of me, I mimed drawing and cocking a pistol and double tapped them in the head Whenever I go up the stairs at my parents house I mime holding an M16, kick my bedroom/the toilet door open and...

    Flirting with danger

    I was just thinking about some of the things we did as bored suburban teenagers to brighten up our lives, like jumping off buildings and (in my case) setting fire to my genitals with a deodorant can. Made me wonder what are the most dangerous and death defying things you / your mates / your...

    Do you think I respond differently to art now that I'm on SSRIs?

    I saw this thread and it made me think about when I last got off citalopram and was in floods of tears listening to joni mitchell (and this wasn't weeks after, it was months) Made me wonder if perhaps I would be falling to my knees in front of a pile of bricks and dung in the Tate Modern like...

    Who's got the juice?

    London had the juice but not anymore, it would seem In rap terms, New York had the juice for 15 years or more, and now no longer has the juice Germany had the juice with krautrock in the 70s, but god knows how long it's been since a German had the juice

    What's your Halloween double bill tonight then?

    I've only done two in the past 1. At the BFI: The Exorcist and Hellraiser, stoned out of my skull, absolute class, Hellraiser particularly, although nothing was quite as scary as my pre-film paranoia when the lights were still up and I was struggling to hold onto reality 2. At home, a few...

    State of the dance nations from Sherburne

    https://pitchfork.com/features/article/its-time-for-electronic-music-to-turn-its-dreams-into-reality/ I guess this is more optimistic than we tend to be on here, although he does talk about how there's a yearning for something new and fresh. Thought this might start a good discussion/bitter...

    Where do you go

    To get out of the house/flat? I keep thinking I should go somewhere to read and draw, cos I'm not getting that done in my flat with the giant TV etc. But where? Could sit in a pub and drink a 0% pint to keep my faculties intact, I suppose? More generally, where do you go?

    Lesser known tunes by the GOATs

    O.C. - My World (1994) produced by DJ PREMIER Not saying this is one of Premier's greatest tunes but I've never come across it before. Weird whistling sample + hard drums and bass. A winner.

    What's on at the movies

    I am thinking of going to see Alien: Romulus this weekend because apparently (to my surprise) it's supposed to be good and well scary. I'm looking at some images from the original Alien that somecunt's posted on Twitter and thinking to myself Why don't more film-makers pair up with visual...

    Awesome Welles

    Figured he might as well have his own thread. His films, yes (although I've only seen one, Kane), but also his personality. As far as I'm aware no scandals have emerged to bring him down. Could he be the greatest American of modern times?

    Hatchet jobs

    Fun to write, fun to read This review of Tennyson's second book by John Wilson Croker almost stopped thin-skinned Tennyson from publishing again. Byron and Shelley blamed Keats's untimely death on Croker's review of 'Endymion'...
