I know it’s early days, but I hope The Nerve podcast is coming at some point in the future. It’s the only way I’d realistically be able to follow your work as regularly as I’d like to. I would definitely financially contribute then.
Selling my wares at the makers market at Portobello Town Hall today, 11am - 4pm. Come say hi!

As someone who was born in what was still then Soviet Union, grew under it’s long shadow, and later studied it’s culture & society at university, it was eye opening to realise just how much of the particular brand of Soviet socialism was rooted in Marx’s uniquely unpleasant personality
Wait, celebrities are not real people??What are they, replicants?

24.09.2025 06:38 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0I mean it’s fine, whatever. Her space achievements are not to be dismissed. It’s just a jarring experience seeing her face in the Guardian saying we should recognise her more.

Oh and I adore the score for Jonathan Glazer’s Birth by Alexandre Desplat
Really impossible to pick one.
Hard to pick between these three:
Jonny Greenwood’s music for There Will Be Blood
Miles Davis’s live improvisation for Ascenseur pour l'échafaud
or
Duke Ellington’s score for Anatomy of a Murder
Stunning light!
