One Candy Talking (i.e. Making Things On The Internet)

Trippy and intense are words that spring to mind! Also, it vaguely reminded me of the brainwashing sequence in The Ipcress File, which is a good thing, obvs!

I remade it

And expanded it!

Also hello again everyone, sorry for the long absence. I have been increasing my social circle, though, which is good. I'm going to this event tomorrow night, for example. I would be interested in your opinions on the drag names

Despite endless assaults on my community's basic human rights, I am somehow surviving and even thriving, a little bit at least

V. good!

I feel there could be a 60s / 70s themed drag group called The Mellow Birds, after the instant coffee (they still make it but it's an old thing to me)

Yeah, I long ago decided that I'd never watch that

Oh Gawd...

I did this Youtube short

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Rd722y_Wf88

I think it might get removed at some point, feels a bit touch and go in regards to Youtube's "standards", of which there are none ((c) 2009 Stewart Lee) but it's very much an angrily heartfelt blast aimed towards Ed "Fence Up Arse" Sheeran and his evil war-hungry bosses (and the systems in place that ruin everything)

Also the automatic thumbnail it chose does spoil a bit at the end a bit, but I'm going to leave it as it's quite extraordinary the upload bot just blindly chose that

Post by **dng** » Thu Sep 17, 2026 8:17 pm

hooray

Post by **dng** » Thu Sep 17, 2026 8:17 pm

kind of a shame it wasn't coldplay imploding like this but i suppose ed sheeran'll do

Post by **Bruce Sato** » Fri Sep 18, 2026 12:26 am

Every little helps. Also hooray.

I don't know whether I've mentioned this before, but apparently someone I know used to be friendly with a pre-fame Sheeran - played at the same gigs and that sort of thing. ES is one of those people whose music I've managed to avoid for all these years. I suspect a lot of people will be joining me on that one from now on.

As before, so after

Hurrah for Michelle's YouTubeShort! *thumbs up*

As for Sheeran, the most I've ever seen or heard of him was his cameo in the film 'Yesterday'.

Post by **endar** » Fri Sep 18, 2026 9:08 pm

I only ever saw him in Game of Thrones, and it was so jarring and out of place it sickened me permanently

one of the most wretched films I've ever seen, he fit into it perfectly

I hated him before it was cool (unfortunately i have heard his music because i have no control over the radio at the electrologist)

Post by **blombluss** » Sun Sep 20, 2026 9:36 pm

I don't think I've heard a note of Macklemore's music, either.

Post by **vom** » Sun Sep 20, 2026 9:56 pm

I'm still reeling from learning it's pronounced Mac le More and not Mackle-More.
