Honestly, stick with piano or guitar if your aim is to cover something. Try drums if you're happy to let that goal slide, as it's actually significantly different from most other instruments (and you don't typically see drummers covering other drummers)

Are you planning to get a teacher or are you planning to teach yourself? One is likely going to take you a much longer time than the other to get to an equivalent level of skill (take that from someone who did it the hard way)

At least where I'm from, that's a Subway sauce option

Why do you want people to see through your walls?

This idea would have been a super easy Photoshop and would have looked way less shit than this beige AI wank

Burning through a shitload of trees just to create a forgettable meme is not praxis

Rather than responding to the request for comment, on social media the next day:

“I’ve come to believe fascists are born, not made. Discovering real fascism in my early thirties was like looking into a mirror and finally realizing why commies have called me a fascist for so long. They spotted it before I could, but then I wholeheartedly embraced it.”

Hahahahahahaha fuck me what an absolute melt

Okay whose turn is it to take away this guy's keyboard?

Legitimately recommend giving the Cretan version a go, it's the perfection of the dish IMO

Though sadly unless you're actually having it somewhere in the Mediterranean, the tomatoes just don't hit the same

Which wrapper am I supposed to eat?

Yeah but your whole thing has been pretending you were for decades now?

 

As the festival draws to a close, and I've been sadly watching from home this year—what's everyone's highlights?

I might just be still in shock, but holy shit The Prodigy just absolutely demolished it.

Biffy, Franz and Scissor Sisters being the other most memorable shows I've seen so far. I've enjoyed a lot of what's been on West Holts as per usual.

A little disappointed in Neil Young's set, he felt a bit lacking in energy to me, but maybe I set my expectations a bit high. I think Pulp put on a great show, but I'm not sure it deserves the lauding it seemingly got in this morning's press.

 

I finished work a bit early today, went for a walk, met a friend at a newly opened pub, watched the football with a few pints and just got back home.

Another fun Friday to put into the box of fun Fridays

What's going on in your corner of the world?

 

It is known across Liverpool as the Radio City tower but that moniker may not be around much longer as the structure hosts its final live broadcast on Christmas Eve.

Microphone cables are being bundled up and heaving contacts books packed into boxes, leaving empty what is arguably the most famous building of the city’s skyline – St Johns Beacon, to use its proper name.

Built in 1969, originally as a luxury revolving restaurant that was one visited by Queen Elizabeth II, the tower was listed Grade II in 2020, with Historic England describing it as “embodying the technological bravura and spirit of the space age”.

 

What would you add/change for next time

I know I could do with a sweeter red vermouth

 

Uefa has warned ministers that England could be excluded from the European Championship it is co-hosting in 2028 over "concerns" that a planned independent football regulator could lead to "government interference" in the sport.

A bill to establish a body to oversee the top five tiers of the men's game in England was reintroduced in July.

The UK government has said the football watchdog will "protect clubs" by "ensuring their financial sustainability".

But in a letter sent to Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy and seen by BBC Sport, Uefa general secretary Theodore Theodoridis wrote: "We do have concerns remaining... as normally football regulation should be managed by the national federation.

So canvas is on again this year! We could try and be a bit more organised this time if people are around

I've not started anything yet

 

Honestly, I will never wrap my head around how people can happily bring infants on any flight where you can expect people to try and sleep, it's incredibly lucky if they don't spend some of it screaming their heads off—I would be mortified if my choices were preventing hundreds of people from sleeping. But I'm not going to rant too hard about that.

Why on earth hasn't any airline started marketing adult-only flights?

It seems like a complete no brainer to me, I would choose it every time and pay extra for it.

Disclaimer: I may or may not be on a 36h day with only an hour of sleep right now
