the new mojo (and feed your head cd) looks good

 I like the look of the new Mojo Magazine that's just arrived through my letterbox, especially the free 'Feed Your Head' CD, which is a follow up to the  same named one from many years ago. The earlier one (below) was (and still is) one of my favourite compilations, and is currently next to the CD player in the kitchen, so l hope this new one is on the same kind of level. Fingers and toes all crossed!

grooming gangs, the tories and reform - a reminder

When Kemi and poundshop Lee try to exploit the grooming gangs scandal and inquiry, remember this.

close up of a paperback page

 I love these close up micro photos. This is the edge of a paperback page.  Nothing is as it seems.

the tennis suddenly looks interesting

 I was mooching around listening to music (as l tend to do) and had the TV left on from watching the news. It was showing women's tennis and when l did glance up, this was the scene l witnessed. I think maybe l've been missing out not watching it in the past.

more books!

I've got boxes of books l still haven't read and l am trying (very slowly) to sort out, and bookcases overflowing with others l have read, so what do l do? Something sensible? Of course not. Some of todays haul is below.  I need a bigger house (or an intervention).

omega's upcoming marc bolan auction

 If only l had more money (and space). I'm already jealous of whoever buys the handwritten lyrics book as l'm salivating just looking at the photographs (what a lovely mental image).

It's a Beautiful Day - White Bird

Mark Lanegan - The Beast In Me (Full Song)

america - this is why l love you

I've been to America many times and travelled some of the country, and this is a reminder that it's not just MAGA dickheads in the land of the (for now) free. The 'No Kings' marches show the side of America l love, but it's a pity more of the population didn't vote Democrat. l suspect that the Latinos that voted for Trump are regretting it now, but Trump didn't exactly disguise what he was going to do if he regained power, so it was all out in the open. Anyway, enough of that.  A splendid turnout.







Meanwhile in saddo land.......

manchester united unveil their new goalkeeper

 The new football season is a long way off, but Manchester United have just unveiled their new goalkeeper. Looking at those legs though, I don't anticipate his kicking ability will be up to much.

chess - l love and hate you

Chess - It's a game that can be learnt easily so you can play games and enjoy them (even my brother can play) , but once it gets hard, it gets very hard (fnaaar). Stuck with this?  Look up 'En Passant'. Black's still buggered though.

where's health and safety when you need them?

I'm not scared of heights and have been on many roofs in the past doing one thing or another, but this is madness, and despite the fact l have done many mad things, you would not catch me up that ladder for love or money.

ballymena's racist thugs

I agree with 100%.  A lot of them may be youngsters, but that just shows how much hatred they are being fed at an early age. Once again, if the political discourse is based on hatred and blaming immigrants for societies failings rather than facing up to the real problems, violence will eventually erupt.

From here

donald trump comes out fighting

After a day full of 'No Kings' protests, Trump has decided to come out fighting (in his dreams).

minnesota democratic legislator killed and a lawmaker shot

 Rather sadly, this is where it was always going to lead, and l expect there will be more killings. The sheer nastiness and hateful rhetoric spewed forth pretty much every day by the government and it's lackies was always going to have consequences.

a dodgy looking crew in the pub tonight

I'd never seen these dudes before, but they're now my new mates. Live and let live l say.

filthy kitchen questions

I've got two questions with this photograph.

First off - How did they gain access to my house to take the photo?

Second - that was a joke, but what was the point of buying the cleaning foamy scrubby things? (can't remember their name).

The waterboys artwork for this weekends glasgow gigs

Despite the fact that these Waterboys Glasgow gig posters are AI generated, l like them a lot, and if l wasn't working, l'd be tempted to go for the last night, and if you can, do so. It's a splendid evenings entertainment.

'liberating' LA ffs

This should have garnered a lot more press and lots of comeback from anyone who cares about the constitution.  It's dictatorship language.

 


And a reminder. At the same press conference...Forcefully handcuffing a Senator.

 Always handy to know.

Rather sadly, much as l am 100% behind protests l can envisage protests against Donald Trump's parade this weekend ending up this way.
