Back in the very early days of Twitter / X I’d lose followers due to complaining about how bad @northernrail were
@AvantiWestCoast have to take the crown now. How do they get away with operating a shambles of a service? Train cancelled on some make believe reason.
Been using @Replit for product ideas and prototyping, but combining it with @ShopifyDevs Hydrogen has blown me away. Rebuilt a full Shopify site from the ground up that's cleaner, faster, and properly tuned for conversion. This beats Theme development hands down.
Introducing the Lovable Shopify integration.
Today, we're making it possible to build online stores by chatting with AI.
To show how it works, we built and launched our first merch store:
More @AvantiWestCoast chaos. Manchester bound train sat at platform 5 for 40 mins with zero announcements… then suddenly moved to 15. Staff don’t know where drivers are meant to be. Absolute shambles. Make Northern Rail look like an organised outfit.
Typical @AvantiWestCoast — Baltic conditions in the carriages when it’s minus 10 outside. Today a light warm air exits the aircon. Everyone melting. Baffles me how they got the franchise.
Prompt:
[High top angle wide mid close up tracking shot, flying very fast two meters high over the grass, dominated by a real young boy (pink t-shirt, pink shorts, whit shoes, white long socks), with his back to the camera, body stretched out, gliding smoothly forward, flying in the air, casting a clear shadow on the ground. His legs and body are high above the level of the ground, his feet is not touching the ground, he is flying in the Superman pose. The background is a vast lush green valley with dense grass and dark green forest, and in the distance rolling mountains with a winding path. Large fluffy white clouds float in the vibrant blue sky. Strong dynamic motion blur creates a strong sense of speedy flight and perspective depth. Realistic image --raw]
My Midjourney prompts + srefs thread 👇🧵
I spent hours on these experiments last week:
so now just steal them and spend minutes and create your own gems 💪
Save this thread for your future use 💾
@DorkSirjur@HendrikRiessen I can do that for you. There’s some tapes from Angels (Burnley), Zone (Blackpool), some various DJs, and a lot from Legends (Warrington) if you didn’t already have them.
@mark_webster@HendrikRiessen I don't have a way to rip tapes these days but if you have a mix you want to be on the timeline or something I may be interested in chuck us a DM, I'll add you now
Gonna begin today going back 36 years with a rare set:
This is Colin Dale @ Rage: Heaven On Earth 1989
Rage sets are silly rare (I only have three). This is technically a reupload, but its been re-encoded, as per, for better quality. Legendary set.
Reminder that all mixes uploaded here today go on my Kofi for download tonight.

@DorkSirjur@HendrikRiessen 🤣 Amazing. All you posted sets all brilliant though. There's so many I haven't heard before. Do you take tape submissions too?
And now a bit of men's fashion history: my favourite post-scally "UK paninaro" brands of 1986-89 – in adverts/publicity.
Paired with greased back hair, "goggle" sunglasses and Kourous/ YSL Jazz after-shave.
No 1: Stone Island
In 1988, I met a girl from Oxford called Kerry on a ferry(!) to France.
She invited me to Headington, where I witnessed local lads in C17 jeans and Chipie sweats with bad English on the front.
I was smitten by her looks – and their clothes.
If you loved "The City is Ours" then you're going to love its predecessor, "Shooters".
Forget real actors, the Scouse lads here create drama, tension, tragedy and rage – on the go, with no formal training.
It's phenomenal.
