*whoever organised that thing should have got a knighthood. Fantastic music, a DJ riding an animatronic tiger, gobsmacking pyrotechnics, a shadow puppet play of the Diwali story. It was insane in an entirely good way.
8 years ago, Mrs Psychonaut and I saw Mr Wilson's Second Liners by accident at a free festival to celebrate the 50th birthday of Milton Keynes*, and loved them. Tonight I watched them (this time on purpose) at @TheCrescentYork, and they were fantastic. Excellent 1st gig of 2025
Before either:
A. Dying of heatstroke, or
B. Removing his armour to avoid A, and getting turned into a pincushion
I don't wish to speculate on what the Sentinelese would then do with a half drunk case of energy drinks.
Unwise proselytizers notwithstanding, the Sentinelese have mostly run away and hidden during previous attempts to contact them, so this is likely true. A man in armour could stomp unmolested around the island and declare himself king.
Barring mainland India getting involved, a man wearing plate armor could likely capture and become king of North Sentinel Island with nothing but a sword and a case of white Monsters.
It really shouldn't be some unattainable pipe dream to wish for a government that doesn't immediately fall for every single piece of bullshit created extremely terrible billionaires with very bad agendas.

Hi @RoyalMailHelp. Just curious, but why has the parcel I paid you £50 to send to the United States just arrived back at my house having apparently never left the country?
And how quickly are you going to give me my money back? Because of the available options, any answer that is not "immediately" is not likely to be acceptable

BTW, if you've had enough of Christmas songs at this point, but you still want to listen to something uplifting, Hymn To The Immortal Wind by MONO might be what you're after. They're like if Godspeed You, Black Emperor decided everything would work out ok in the end
I fully understand that that bragging about court victories is extremely declasse, but in a two-hander where pros and co-def both had a KC and junior, my client was the only one a acquitted, so I am feeling a little this tonight.
I'm not sure this story gives proper prominence to the fact there's a recruitment website that cheerfully blacklists you if you raise concerns about your former employer killing people

@fourfoot@cherryaimless The Big Tesco near me is a bastard for that. The tinned beans in particular. I just want to make chana masala, not uncover a vast alien conspiracy where I have to battle both Ian Richardson and Richard O'Brien.
A bit specific maybe, but if you're in the mood for a low-key, Irish version of The Thing without the body-horror and set on a fishing boat, Sea Fever on Prime is pretty good.
