@northumbriana @ArtisanBakingNE Took my primary school class to sing outside Big River Bakery. Someone dressed as a giant friendly stottie came out and started bouncing around. Was a very surreal moment.

I tend to agree with @ArtisanBakingNE that they helped to save the stottie from extinction - so I I’ve been over to their bakery in Shieldfield to buy some. Happy to confirm that they’re absolutely delicious 👌

@ScrtDrugAddict I remember seeing them on their Farewell tour and the vibe was they'd go await and have a Pixies revival in a few years. Wait it out until the world caught up. Unfortunately, the world is full of idiots.

Bob Dylan names Arthur Machen's The Great God Pan as one of his favourite books.

At the hotel in Frankfurt there was a publishing convention and every room was taken, parties all night. I didn’t know there were so many book publishers in the world. I was trying to find Crystal Lake Publishing so I could congratulate them on publishing The Great God Pan, one of my favorite books. I thought they might be interested in some of my stories. Unfortunately it was too crowded and I never did find them.

@shankysanghi @lesser441117 @JeremyVineOn5 @_JessicaDavies @Mattallwright Newcastle didn't have any race riots this summer. It doesn't suffer the same levels of post Thatcher deprivation that other places sadly suffer from. It's a far better place for. It's multicultural, proud and progressive.

@lesser441117 @JeremyVineOn5 @_JessicaDavies @Mattallwright People live everywhere outta economic issues or social issues. Don't mean they like to live there. They are just stuck there.
Those places are not safe.
Nobody choose to go and live North, if they have enough money and can able to live at other places.

@memizon Stewart Home's Blood Rites of the Bourgeoisie and 69 Things to do with a dead princess are both pretty far-out.
Memoirs of Gnostic Dwarf might win for best title though.

It’s freaky Friday so what’s your weirdest book? And I mean the most far-out one there is on your shelf?
I’m still doubting but I have one particularly weird tome in mind.

@israeldevries @sara_jayne67 @Alex_Niven I'm sorry you experienced that, those anti-semite thugs do not speak for the vast majority of Geordies. The North East has a proud Jewish history and heritage. I hope you had positive experiences here too.

@LukeHaines_News Sad to read this. I got into him through your song 'Satan Wants Me.' An amazing author - 'Exquisite Corpse' 'Prayer-Cushions of the Flesh' and 'The Limits of Vision' are particular favourites. I'd often check out Dedalus Press every now and then to see if he had a new book out.

The relentless disinformation has its sources in Russian interference as a means to destabilise multiculturalism and democracy. It reduces discourse to mindlessness, feeds on prejudices and bankrolls social media owners. I found them fascinating, now they're frightening. 2/2

For many rioters their radicalisation begins on Facebook. They start with British nostalgia pages that a harvest followers and it leads to cult of the personality images, like North Korean propaganda centred around Farage and Robinson. 1/2
