Very saddened to hear that Steve Albini has died. A brilliant musician and producer and a thoughtful and thoroughly engaging person. R.I.P.

Nice one @shit_rock. Although I suspect you might never want to look at this record ever again, it's here and it sounds great.

@GingerWildheart @grade2iow Saw High Vis supporting @BandofNOTHING last year. Became an instant fan. One of the best sets I've ever seen from a support band.
English

Along with @grade2iow, have to say High Vis are my favourite new band of 2023. Don’t think they’re on Twitter.
Check this out. Something special.

I have started writing about a horror movie that @GingerWildheart impressively said is "...my favourite horror film since The Exorcist." That's high fucking praise. I'm gonna have a lot of fun with this one. HINT: it was remade in 2015, the director of the original calls it junk.

@_elvishpresley_ Such a great joke. In the full clip no one laughs. At all.

@elisjames If it wasn't for Golden Lights they would have a totally flawless discography.

@taskmaster That live task was outrageous. Massive disadvantage to the team of two and way too many points at stake. I'm absolutely mildly annoyed.

🚨 | BREAKING: Boris Johnson's statements in the past hour:
- Birthday party was 'reasonably necessary' for work purposes - despite my wife being there (but she has access to any room as she lives in No 10)
- I failed to mention the string of gatherings to the Commons because it "did not seem to be in breach of the guidance or rules"
- We didn't touch each others' pens to mitigate COVID - but 'of course' we passed drinks
- I don't know why Lee Cain raised a warning about the garden party event (he didn't raise it with me, nor Reynolds - and I saw no email) - but it was probably because of the "impression that we were doing smth that other people weren't allowed to do"
- Sorry for doxing two officials who the Committee had promised to protect the identities of
- I have no idea why anyone was fined for drinking wine at that event - I think it's 'customary' to say farewell to people in the country with a toast
- It is 'complete nonsense' to suggest I didn't take proper advice, such as a lawyer - I asked senior people
The Committee has now ended.

@therapyofficial Happy 30th birthday to such a significant record in my life. Just getting it out for a spin now.

@Daso45483951 @nocontextfm1 He took over in October. He's won 5 and drawn 4.

@millyjohnson Yep. Then VCM was confused about why they couldn't explain the clues.
"How did you get this right?"
Erm...they didn't.
English

@DGJones84 The double acts question perchance ? We said the same.
English

Very strange moment on tonight's #onlyconnect where VCM gave an "I'll take it" to a guess that in no way resembled the actual answer.

@Baddiel @tomswanston Isn't it a version of the Bernard Righton joke?
"An Englishman, an Irishman and a Pakistani walk into a bar. What a perfect example of racial integration."
English

@tomswanston I love that this sounds like the opening line of a gag.
