Maybe you're too UNmisanthropic
(not sure what the antonym should be)

Never seen it. Funnily enough, was chatting to a mate tonight about whether I should believe the hype and give it a go. Your review is helpful.

I was happy to read that the silver medalist: Peter Norman knew the salute would be happening and wore a Human Rights badge in support of his fellow athletes

This is classic Labour Party comms. Rather than trying to inspire us, it's always ' Vote Labour or else'. I'm so done with that. My votes will be FOR policies I endorse from now on. No more voting Labour to keep out Tories or Reform. I joined The Green Party.

Loves the country so much that he's left it. Has clearly never used a tube train or bus if he thinks you can't have a phone out in London. Appears to be correct about not being clever.

You all have a good sniff of the peanut butter jar before you spread your toast, right? #SoGood

63/64 cups of coffee is believable!

urgently need you guys to know that this French politician below 1) didn't know he'd been appointed as a minister until he saw it on TV 2) reacted by going: "bah pfff voilΓ "

My latest obsession is morning-related tunes. Honestly - I'm not sure why πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ.
But I am sure this is lovely:

If I could be bothered - Gregory Isaacs would be my style icon.

Lovely. I always appreciate style on others - though I confess I can never be bothered to sort any out for myself (classic middle-aged man business). Hope you have a lovely time at the party.

Also, I always wince a bit at 'Sweet Little 16' and 'You're 16, youre beautiful' and 'Girl, you'll be a woman soon' and, and , and....

There are way too many songs in this category. I can't listen to them either

I'm not sure Lou Reed should have been left in charge of any tots in 1972. Or ever, really.

Another great tune I didn't know before today. This one, paired with a good strong cup of coffee, will definitely get me going in the mornings. And on the right tip too! <3

Nyabinghi drumming, deep bass and unexpected noises in the mix. Some people like to start the day with marijuana - and I feel like Hugh Mundell may have been one of those people.

It's an unusually interesting guitar part. Love the sound of the bass on that track too! Very nice production

Ooh yeah! Thanks Ian. Any idea who's playing guitar on that?

Are bookies taking bets on when @greenparty.org.uk membership will overtake that of the Tories?
I'd put a tenner on this Sunday.
