conniptions

  1. Just watched that John Cooper Clarke doc: bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod… . So good. So very good.
  2. Excellent article from @PennyRed unpicking imaginary femininity and its real-world consequences: thenewinquiry.com/essays/model-b…
  3. @AleroMusic I do now. Please to be DMing me your postal address so I can send you an invite to my engagement party.
  4. @AleroMusic Ah. Damn autocorrect :)
  5. Why are #linux folk not going more apeshit berzerk about this: jwz.org/blog/2012/05/s… (via @jwz) - especially #linuxaudio folk.
  6. Excellent article by @pollytoynbee explaining why the Jubilee is not merely annoying but actively humiliating.
  7. Seven guys and one piano - gets a ten from me - youtube.com/watch?v=lVd9ZL… (by @cdzamusic) A cover, apparently, though I had to be told that :)
  8. @HadarManor I really liked it - thanks for posting :)
  9. @jsundmanus Fair enough, cheers :)
  10. @jsundmanus Looks interesting. Any clues as to submission policy?
  11. @tomwatson Can't blame you given his past form. I'd ask what he's done now but it'll only wind me up too. I can probably guess..
  12. Oh, @amazonuk. I just bought one of those things. Why do you send me email advertising other ones? Those aren't things you get two of.
  13. @tomwatson Making feminism a L/R thing buys into a right-wing anti-feminist narrative even worse than lefty non-feminists like Pilger, no?
