Normal's overrated

And who wants to be a Gaussian bellend?

There's a physical exam.

Roll a Rolling Stone down a grassy bank.

If the Rolling Stone gathers moss as it rolls then it's, obviously, an imposter.

Are, for example, The Rolling Stones, in 2026, in the top 20 of Rolling Stones covers bands?

Marvin = Eeyore

Oops. Wrong book.

Nice echo of Gilbert Adair's A Void.

Or, a good honouring of Adair's A Void.

Can a band not be its own tribute act?

Is every band its own covers band?

Indie bookshops are one of, the few, reasons to get me into a city centre.

Let's not raise business rates on the things that make towns, and cities, places to live, work, and visit.

Save bookshops.
Save indie bookshops.

Pi (1998) is a great film by Darren Aaronovsky.

Pi. Mathematics. Number theory. Kabbalah.

The 216 digit name of G_d.

Imagine the arts commission. One angry woman standing like Henry Fonda, asking 'why are we building this carbuncle on the face of an old friend?'

The other eleven* refusing, like hostages, to do anything to upset the monster.

*Eleven being less by one than the number of people on the commission

In the UK crimes are prosecuted in the name of the monarch so, yes there is someone above the law.

Hmmm

And the grift goes on.

"It is an honour to have this airport renamed after me. And henceforward all airport merchandise must pay me a royalty - what a beautiful word, royalty."

Bondi saying 'No-one is above the law' is contradicted by having the President's mugshot above the door of the Department of Justice.

Yo - is this DEI?

That was the prompt that killed a thousand worthwhile government projects in Trump's America.

No deep analysis. Just a brief answer from A.I.

What do they of A.I. know who only A.I. know?

A property developer President is good news - in the short term - for property developers.

If property deals can be done for DHS ICE concentration camps why not deals for:

- schools
- libraries
- theatres for communities
- hospitals
- public sports & recreation

New York City, population more than 3.

It's a true statement. But it's not very helpful. And it's a tad misleading. But it's still a logically true statement.

Vague contextual cues are the tool of the huckster, and grifter, through the ages.

Every family has a Fredo.

The Mountbatten Windsors seem blessed with a whole squad of Fredos.

What would Michael Corleone do with Fredo? Hmmm
