https://t.co/OdNYDVfEZ5 is exactly what I want out of a ‘fan’ website. It doesn’t post minor and pointless updates. Just very occasional updates when there’s actual news to report. It’s great.

Michael Chapman died today at the age of 80. He was a part of that tremendous English folk scene of the 60s/70s and was a great musician. RIP Michael. (Here he is performing a wonderful version of “Among The Trees”.) https://t.co/sSAq3xmoSQ

I’m watching “Eric Clapton: Live in Hyde Park” (2001). He performs ‘Wonderful Tonight’ - one of his big hits - and about four members of the huge crowd gives a single fuck. I find this fascinating. What did he do or say to turn the entire audience against him?! Forever a mystery. https://t.co/jfXIAO5RrU

I still can’t quite believe what’s happening with /r/#wallstreetbets. It’s like finding out 4chan has cured cancer. Pre-COVID it was the mentally challenged brother to /r/investing. Now they’re using meme stocks to financially beat hedge funds to death. https://t.co/nlN6U4bTeN

I’m sorry, but the ‘Eat Out to Help Out’ scheme still sounds like the name of a charity launched by unfulfilled lesbians. I couldn’t help but laugh when I went into a restaurant and announced “I’m here to eat out and help out”.
