@oceanfearer I went to see the Smashing Pumpkins for the first time in nearly twenty years last month and as I was about to leave my wife asked if I was nervous in case his voice was gone. Well played 🎣
@OwenJones84 You’re acting as if the estimated 60% of UK Muslims that voted for Labour in 2024 is somehow the equivalent of the less than 10% of British Jews that voted for Labour in 2019. Why?
@AyoCaesar As per BBC: it’s estimated that 60% of UK Muslim voters voted for Labour. This isn’t the same as when under 10% of British Jews voted for Corbyn’s Labour.

@JoMicheII It’s a different calculation now though?
People will see if they can govern or not. If they don’t impress after five years people will look elsewhere, but if they do well, or the Tories go further into culture war obscurity, they’ll continue to govern surely?
@Ankaman616 I assume he has plan a, b and c and all of them include a prominent role for Bellingham, so he’s on unless he’s injured or having an absolute stinker.
@batcountry1980 I knew what you were talking about before I saw the thumbnail. One of the all time greats and it never fails to provide the gut punch, despite having heard it countless times.
@batcountry1980 Used to finish djing and walk down to be first in the queue and my wife would come down with bacon sandwiches just before opening. Two kids later and it seems a lifetime ago.
@alshipley@ShadowTodd Not sure you can simultaneously cite smashing pumpkins and hole covers but ignore nirvana covering Bowie and ratm covering Springsteen?
@FurnaceFear I’m with you on that, the bass playing for me makes it swing, and I really don’t find that with much of what would have been their contemporaries like Husker Du or Dinosaur Jr. who I still love but it’s a lot less fluid, if that makes any sense.
@FurnaceFear I’m not really a vinyl sounds better wanker just a run of the mill vinyl looks better wanker but my wife got me the Pallas pressing of nevermind and it absolutely fucking swings. It’s like they’re in the room with you
@ShowerAbsolute Not quite under two minutes but I’ve always had a soft spot for dreaming of you by the coral and the re-recorded version of game of pricks by guided by voices is perfect
