@tonymerchison If it’s a belt-driven turntable, the belt might be slightly loose

Record playing chums! My player has started making a regular unpleasant grinding sound when playing - stylus seems to be clean and nothing else obviously wrong. Any tips?

@tonymerchison @suedeHQ Happy birthday! I forgot the suede album came out the same day. 30 years!

Happy birthday to @suedeHQ 's debut album. And to me, for that matter.

@sugar_bird You too! I hope you’re doing well!

@WritesReader Good to hear from you!

@Bethanaikos The shambles is the best and most accurate name ever for a shopping district

Went with ⁦@RabbiJordanaCR⁩ to do my civic duty. Go out and vote!

Ahead of the new Dr Who it might be worthwhile pointing out that Liz Truss is the first prime minister since 1963 not to have an episode broadcast during her premiership doctorwho.tv/stories/the-po…

@MichanConnor Zionsville is the next suburb along from ours. Some of our school board candidates are being supported by a M4L chapter led by a person who had a 3%er sticker on their car until recently. Gulp!

@MamaBearRus @Mister_L_Bear It's definitely the car. I ran or walked by it several times a week

@Mister_L_Bear Do you know for sure it's her car, and that both cars are the same ones? I don't doubt you, I believe you but the picture itself does not proof anything.

@Bethanaikos I thought it was fantastic! It inspired me to go back and read ol'JRR (as no one ever called him!) I might even get some of the other books. RoP and Andor (also great) are my Friday night viewing with the kids

@EugeneSmelyans2 I did enjoy the mid-show Sauron fakeout. But it seems kind of obvious in retrospect!

@johnbroich Its been incredibly volatile since 2010: Scots to the SNP. Metro liberals to Tories under Cameron and back to Lab and Lib Dems. Brexit, Corbyn and Lab to Tory voters in 2019. One reason might be the balance rules still in place for TV and radio news

@MichanConnor Judging by where I live, that logic is being extended to grandmothers as well!

@Bethanaikos @Bodegacats_ Aww, it could! Cleo is currently sunning herself in my chair!

@Mister_L_Bear If he’s so pro-life, why is he always recording videos while he drives? That’s just asking for disaster
