Walter Benjamin's Rules for Writing

An #Irish pub in the 1950s. 🍻

The Shadow Lord Chancellor’s repeated exploitation of a horrendous tragedy - and consequent jeopardising of live criminal proceedings - all for the purpose of generating clicks from the far-right, is utterly debasing of our politics. This is not a serious man.

I was discharged from the psych ward a year and week ago today. Last year I spent most of my days lying in bed. Today I finished a 2500 word university essay and finished a book last night. It gets better. I promise. Please stay.

Fuck you Dormeo. I’ve fed up with your incessant inane TV advertising.

There’s obviously a bigger profit margin in selling Dormeo mattresses than there is in selling crack cocaine.

When I was an undergraduate at University of London in the ‘70s, I used to regularly run up this spiral staircase at Goodge Street to avoid having to show my non- existent ticket at the exit barriers. Now I am out of breath just looking at a pic of it. 🙈

Spent much of the ‘76 heatwave at the roof top swimming pool, the Oasis, in Holborn.

Something of a novel breakfast for me. 2 fried eggs on potato and chorizo tortilla. Absolutely superb.

I’m bailing out soon to you know where. This place has become too much like a car boot sale run by Nazis. [email protected]

It seems very strange abandoning this platform for bsky but I need to realise that this is no longer the Twitter I signed up for all those years ago. It is now a Musk driven travesty of its former self. I’d love you to join me on [email protected]

Twitter (X) is the Titanic. Musk is the iceberg. Bsky is the lifeboat.

Is it a bit gay to have my back waxed 🇵🇸 ? 🎶Hey everybody, the itch is back!

92 Candles 🎂 today for PETULA CLARK - who’s been in show-business for over 82yrs now. DOWNTOWN (1965)

Twitter X mortuus est.

So. For this man the party’s over. Great whilst it lasted. Made some brilliant friends on here, but constant abuse I suffer these days is too much. In all conscience I cannot stay on a platform operated by a Trump lackey. Follow me on [email protected] 🎶Might as well JUMP!

I have remembered just in time! In 61 BCE Pompey “the great” celebrated his military victory parade on his birthday. Parade specially arranged to coincide. I wonder if the president knows.
