- Directly responsible for the murder of US citizens by masked agents of the state
- Openly looting the treasury and taking bribes from foreign leaders

Compendium 249 4th February 2026 Compendium 249 takes on the mantle of a more acoustic show, because next week's 250th Compendium is a compendium (would you believe?) of songs that I personally love: new ones and older ones. This wee...

German FA official wants 2026 World Cup boycott talks A German football association official believes it is time to consider a boycott of the 2026 World Cup in the wake of United States President Donald Trump's actions.

It is good that Germany FA is talking about this. Will we see countries dropping out. Not sure that will happen though.

Look at him! Really look and don’t you dare look away either!
That is a four-year-old. He’s wearing a backpack big enough for a juice box and lunch and wearing a winter hat pulled down by someone who loves him.
And the United States government decided this child was an acceptable target!!!! 1/

One of those captcha things. This one says β€˜select all images with bicycles. Click verify once there are none left’. There are 9 squares  - 4 contain photos of bicycle seats, with the remaining 5 showing the beautiful head and face of a grey greyhound with a white stripe going from the top of their head to the tip of their nose.

A couple of days ago, for the first time in ages, I packed up my laptop and took it to a fabulous little library in my city. I sat down and did some of my best writing for months. How can these things possibly be connected? πŸ™‚ Support you local library. Good things happen there.

Silversun Pickups are a band I have criminally underrated in my own mind. They have 2 songs that were my favorite of their year and another that I put #2 at the time but probably should have also been a #1. #musicsky

Yep. I’m waiting to get the money Spotify suspended paid back and then I’m done with them too. Vile organisation and the quality is a bit shit too.
