The Endor PC is now free if you need it.

How in under Christ did @irishtimes.com allow this from Ruby Eastwood? Truly disgraceful. I knew it was going wrong when she referenced the Guinness ‘factory’. But seriously, this is a shameful statement. ‘Pervert’s smile’? Jesus.

‘Gaza war’ indeed.

Not only has @irishtimes.com decided to publish this piece softballing the war crime state of Isr€&l, but they’ve even put it in the Music section. Shameful decision to print this. What are they thinking? Jesus wept.

BBC Four - Omnibus, Leonard Bernstein's West Side Story Documentary that follows the making of a classic recording of Bernstein's celebrated work.

Great to see this again. One of the greatest music docs. What a document of ‘Lenny’ in work mode. The best of freelance players. Kiri Te Kanawa with her endless range of expression. Jose C having a meltdown then nailing it the next day. Tremendous.

All kinds of innovative responses to the #promptcombo #favouriteplace theme, from the shade, thru a building, the body, to even a place in time. I've gone mainstream with a geographical one. Thanks to this week's host, @dragonslayerma.bsky.social

Hope you snuck in. Only way to do the Ball, surely.

When do you think the White House will announce that they've had a beautiful call with Xi and the China tariffs are going to be lowered or paused?

For #PromptCombo, whose theme this week is #parallel.

Great to see this again. So funny.
