Hello Dublin, you’re looking a lot less battered than I expected. Reckon there must have been a hell of a clean-up over the weekend.

You ARE

You ARE

Let the word ring forth from this day: I have Fixed The Coffee Machine. Not sure I’ve ever achieved anything greater.

I don’t think I ever did. But will.

The Bad Fire Mogwai · Album · 2025 · 10 songs

New @mogwai.scot record is beautiful. Proper art. And has that thing where you know it’s them from the first chord. Couldn’t want for any more. open.spotify.com/album/474vVL...

Good drying day etc. apart from the sideways rain, naturally.

Already pretty frisky in #Edinburgh. #StormÉowyn is cracking its knuckles and warming up

My roast chicken > your roast chicken.

Can confirm that the Leon Korean chicken wrap is not suitable for those with beards. #fucksake

#hotelview very poor start to the year.

I don’t have any cake. You have cake. Send cake.

It’s possible for me to have a nicer time than a glass of something good and listening to a growl-off between @tomwaits.bsky.social and Iggy Pop on @bbc6music.bsky.social but not in a way that I can properly describe here.

Beardbaubles = #METALXMAS

Arthur Christmas has been watched. Still brilliant. That's it now, Nollaig Chridheil to you and you and you, but mainly you.

Send one up here. I am in Need.

I am drinking alcohol-free ‘gin’ and tonic and a) it’s really nice and b) I’m not sure what’s become of my life. Pentire Coastal and Fever Tree Aromatic is a genuinely nice drink.

Watching Home Alone for the first time in a few years and I'd forgotten how absolutely beautifully made it is. Absolute labour of love.

nothing worse than furry bitters

right, that'll do. Unfucked around with Old Fashioned is operational. Merry Christmas you filthy animals.

Alright then. If you must. It’s time.
