@elonmusk Neither do you, you total cunt.

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

All of you punching down on Thome York need to give him a break. He can't help it - he's a lead singer after all.

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

@NYCMayor You don't speak Spanish, who are you fooling here.

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

@JamesAThurber @richardpbacon @rustyrockets Nope, he's a twat.

Man City went as 97/98 Man City for halloween.

@NYCMayor Please, for the love of god, go and boil your head.

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

@NYCMayor @allencathedral Can I have my property tax back please you dumb fucking cunt? Thank you!

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

@StruanTVcasting @22GrandPod I'd say half of that 3 hours is mainly comprised of the heart breakingly long pauses I took between thoughts.

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

Nah, I'm a twat really.

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

For years I've been telling anyone who would listen I AM THE ONLY NICE GUY DRUMMER IN TOWN.

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

@TexanPatriot55 @CollinRugg Um I'm going to hazard a guess it's because transitioning doesn't indirectly cause the murder of other people?

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

@thehpweaver Aw thanks man! This is nice to hear, especially as I made the crucial error of reading some of the comments and got a bit sad for a minute. Opinions are, of course, like arseholes and some of the arseholes erm are arseholes. I should have known better!

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

A very nice chat with Harry of 22 Grand Pod! I get a bit more into the weeds with what went on behind the scenes in BP. Hopefully it comes across gracefully and not mean spirited but if you have any fucking problems with it, take it up with my publicist, which is me.

Matt Tong is on the podcast as we delve into how he went from Bournemouth to Bloc Party, why he was reluctant to join the band and why he eventually chose to leave. @MCH_Tong https://t.co/mY2spjdKbd

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

You are factual twats.

#BOUNEW – 90+3’ VAR OVERTURN

Ouattara’s goal is awarded on-field. The VAR overturned the decision as they deemed it to be a factual handball by Ouattara, therefore an on-field review was not required and the goal was disallowed.

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

Me too and it really wasn't much to report home about. Now I know how my mum felt whenever I rattled on about how cool the 70s must have been and she'd grumble about the power cutting out, weak beer and strangers looking at her and my dad funny.

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

Nigel Farage is a cunt. In addition I am also extremely irritated by the distance between the bottom of his nose and his upper lip.

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

@limbamurphy Ping me on IG man - I'm not on here a huge amount!

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

6 quid to the first Swifty who knows what the Finland Station is.

@jamesander81486

I'm 45. I'm pretty sure we didn't start this band when I was 10.

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

@roryisconfused @buffetfiend We left, for the record.

[Matt Tong @MCH_Tong]

Fuck off you snivelling cunt.

Today, with the cost of creating content being close to zero, people can share an incredible amount of content. This has sparked my curiosity about the concept of long shelf life versus short shelf life. While much of what we see and hear quickly becomes obsolete, there are timeless ideas or even pieces of music that can remain relevant for decades or even centuries.

For example, we’re witnessing a resurgence of Stoicism, with many of Marcus Aurelius’s insights still resonating thousands of years later. This makes me wonder: what are the most unintuitive, yet enduring ideas that aren’t frequently discussed today but might have a long shelf life? Also, what are we creating now that will still be valued and discussed hundreds or thousands of years from today?
