Wait? What?

Unions create a "lords and peasants" dynamic in a company?

Does he have literally no understanding of history.... or words?

Head to @SPIN to read a brand new interview with Robert Pollard, who reflects on 30 years of "Bee Thousand" https://t.co/4gEy7DTYle

"The lo-fi thing to me at first came out of economical necessity."

Sometimes land flows like water.

In 1993 my hometown made the news for the wrong reasons: A subterranean clay layer had trapped rainfall and formed a deep slip plane, and one day Holbeck Hall took the fast route to the sea.

How..?

Is anyone else having a bit of a hard time with online communities recently?

I remember the #WritingCommunity being good and then I stopped writing. I found I had kind of backed myself into a corner and everything felt like promoting or whatever. Same with #photography stuff.

@let_it_bea My personal Mandela Effect thing is that I always think he was in Dunston Checks In. He was in a Sonic Youth video though, right?

Gonna have Culkmas this year where I watch a bunch of Macaulay Culkin films leading up to my yearly viewings of home alone 1 and 2

@let_it_bea Party Monster's one I've not seen! Richie Rich.... now that's something. got to be the apex time capsule of 1994. I remember his personal mcdonalds, a cgi bee(?) and relating to the villain

[The Hydrogen Trees @hydrogen_trees]

@let_it_bea not seen that one for a long time but remember being truly unsettled. still not as traumatic as My Girl though

Means a lot when folks take time to listen to any of my weird homespun music but it's especially cool when they tell me they listened to Secret Arcade all the way through in one go. That's the kind of album I was very much trying to make. The desired effect is a cumulative one.

The Mandy Apple collective are doing so much to provide an inclusive hub of DIY creativity and community in a town that, to me at least, had felt culturally barren & neglected for far too long. Give this a listen and check out the artspace if you are in town.

For another peak at the emergent scarborough DIY music scene check out the brilliant and fuzzy lo-fi noise punk of the mysterious "Graham Watson". Songs about roast dinners gone wrong and the shiteness of double-decker bus route to leeds: https://t.co/QgekxHlKw8
