    Ok, I’ll be honest, I’m drunk. I’m going to do a listen through of this album Prelude, I love this album so much. They are from Newastle in the 1990s and underrated. That would be enough even if they were rubbish, but they were a legit pop band and that thing where a bunch of…

    Just read it, not as good as I thought it would be To be honest I just haven’t had any cool ideas to write about, but I promised that I would churn out some shite once a week and I think I’m about 10 days late. I am studying as well as teaching and the…

    Latest release from me. It’s what I made in October. To be honest I had a bit of a break from music making in October, I just got bored of it and never finished anything, hence it being late. These are bits and pieces that I did finish off to put something out. I made…

    Very weird and strangely wholesome video of a quite nice young American man day drinking and smoking in a public park Certainly no complaints on my behalf, that’s for sure!

    This is very on brand. Definitely worth clicking on and watching. A visual artist has made a very realistic version of the Scottish town of Paisley and for me this is mana. I saw a quote by the artist how he felt he was cheating making it dark and rainy because that makes everything look…

    This is a very fun game based on the Paperclip Maximiser concept. If you like that sort of thing… https://www.decisionproblem.com/paperclips/index2.html It’s based on the Nick Bostrom thought experiment to terrify yourself about AI. So briefly the story is that humans design an AI to make paperclips as efficiently as possible, but accidentally make it a…

    Our sun is dying. The sky is hidden. Stashed awayIn the air an emptiness. Dust settles. Neither cold or warmA grey blur, shapeless. Manifested from all of us. Just out of sightDrifting off to sleep. Don’t fight it. There’s nothing left in this world for us.When it gets cold. The cold gets inside of you.…

    A bit of a departure from the ‘drunk again?’ stuff I’ve been posting. This is about ‘The Dead Internet’. I’ll explain the theory briefly and I’ve left a very cool video at the bottom of the page which explains it much better than I can, this is because I want you to watch this really…

    So I’m just going to write a story after that ordeal I got a package delivered by Taobao which is the Chinese version of Amazon, they don’t usually deliver them so it was suspicious, you go to the local shop and collect them, but some guy came to my house and left it outside. And…
