a screenshot of a tweet: Rene Magritte @artistmagritte- Dec 9, 2021 Automated The hesitation waltz, 1950 #surrealism #magritte

an image shows a rene magritte painting of two large apples on the ground with a cloudy blue sky background, the apples have each on a blue face mask and a red face mask like the teenage mutant ninja turtles

youtu.be/Mojvh0burw8?... just my periodical occasional repost of the one of the most exhilarating live performances ever. So few fucks are given that the guitarist throws his axe away long before the end of the song, and finishes with a tambourine solo.

Quietly, calmly and forensically, BBC just dismantled the Trump communications shitshow on Iran.

No hyperbole, just laying out an unprecedented military, diplomatic and reputational shambles.

Worth a watch.

News, nuggets and longreads 7 March 2026: The Lonely Londoners Every Saturday we round up the best writing about beer from the past week. This time, we’ve got pub influencers, brewery sales and buzzers. We usually start these round-ups with an item or two of beer...

GOOD MORNING! Here's the latest edition of news, nuggets and longreads, with a bit on BrewDog, and several links that connect with and echo each other in pleasing ways on influencers and gentrification. 🍻🍺

A fun few hours at the lovely Indie Beer Feast last night, loved chatting with Jules about the scene now vs back when it all started. It was great to hear how the European Beer Bloggers Conference 2012 in Leeds was such a lodestone event for many
