The guy next to me on this very delayed train got on at Kings Cross in London at 0730 and will get to Edinburgh at 1715.
(We got on the 0900 and will alight before Edinburgh, so only an hour to go).
Shout out to our collective efforts, the train has run out of gin.

Just did the age verification thing to use bsky in the UK. It was relatively painless. Chose the credit card option and tried to use debit card and it didn't work. Noticed that I had given my birthday in normal dates but bsky uses American so thought I was born in June, not December. Silly.

But it's great. Sounds excellent (make sure you turn normalisation off), and it's discovery lists are better for me than Spotify's were. Plus music videos!

Did it 18 months ago and won't go back. It's not perfect - getting it to connect to the Sonos means you have to 1) load track. 2) pause track 3) connect to Sonos 4) wait for app to do a refresh flicker then 5) press play ... Which sucks.

Prices aren't going to come down, that's not what tackling inflation does. It's about not making them rise so quickly.
It's entirely underwhelming to experience.

The improvement from the end of last season to the end of this season by Georgia Garnett is so noticeable. Improved foot skills, decision making and that's allowed her hustle to pay dividends. #aflw #aflwgiantspower

@bestalbumbrackets.bsky.social - I note that the wonderful Music Brownlow poll (which does daily polls with a 3-2-1 weighted voting ballot, based on the Australian football leagues Brownlow medal voting to select the seasons best and fairest) has just completed 1989 albums, and the results are in

Lately I've been listening to different late career regurgitator albums.
When put through the lens that this band (as is on the tin) hears songs on the radio and does their own version of them, they are so successful. A strokesish indie dirge makes way for dirtbag hardcore... Bliss.
