    R.I.P. Oliver Craner

    Smothered to death by a large breasted Italian model. Tragically, his death throes were mistaken for a transport of erotic ecstacy. I'll be drinking to your health tonight , my dear departed friend 😢

    "To which Dr. Davies replied' "No, sir! Delillo is poor stuff, very poor indeed. For depend upon it, sir, when a man writes of baseball he writes in error, whatsoever he writes about it." Etc.

    Resolutions you'd have kept this year if you'd made them

    1. Play "Balatro" for hours every day, relentlessly chasing the dopamine hit of building the perfect deck. Play it for half hours at a time on the loo at work, thereby further eating into your already paltry hours spent actually working.

    you learn something new every day

    (Actually yesterday) Why is it called 'boxing day'? The name comes from a time during Queen Victoria's reign when the rich used to box up gifts to give to the poor. Boxing Day was traditionally a day off for servants - a day when they received a special Christmas box from their masters. The...

    Flights of fancy

    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

    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...
