Just wanna point out that my prediction here was accurate to within 10 days. Hear me, Children, hear me.

It’s certainly going to get interesting politically if the number of deaths and the economic damage in EU countries creep past the UK’s over the next few months.

Just to muddle things even more, here’s another SAGE opinion, perhaps best summed up as “we don’t really know.”

But look at the graph and see what happens to infections in the 10-19 age group after schools and […]

A lot of people will still be screaming ‘yeah but Dominic Cummings…!’ as we plunge into lockdown 4 in May. It should be possible to believe the Government fucked up massively and individuals within it ignored […]

We’re going to have to do a very difficult thing, and stop blaming the Government for killing granny and start taking some responsibility ourselves. I know its difficult because everyone’s been so patient and […]

Everyone dies three times on The Afterword

We watched the first one last night. We’d had some wine, to be honest. The words ‘sprawling’ and ‘incoherent’ were uttered from the far end of the sofa, so I told her she was a fine one to talk

Saucy, what have I told you about dwelling in the past? Come back towards the light before we lose you down here forever. Come on, take my hand… here we go now. Ignore that JustB down there, it can’t hurt you now.

Indeed – and completely self-inflicted by the non-Tory electorate being unable to agree on anything

This is why Labour can’t get above 40% in the polls. If young people want to believe that Churchill was racist, Blair did nothing to improve conditions for the least well off and started wars for fun, and any kind […]

Bellows you are one of the small group of iconic Afterworders whose authorship of a thread I can identify just from the title when it appears on Twitter. You just think, ah ha!, that’s a Bellows. It’s a handy […]

Well if it’s unGoogled Gary Tibbs trivia you’re after H, he’s also the bassist in Breaking Glass, the band from the 1980 film of the same name, with Sam Lowry from Brazil on sax and Jim Carver from The Bill on […]

A special ‘actually lasting the distance, eventually’ award should go to Ron Blair, bassist with Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers. Kicked out in 1982, he rejoined 20 years later, replacing his replacement.

“Odd name, Cunis. Neither one thing nor the other.”

Including Gary Tibbs, whose career in Not Lasting took him from The Vibrators to Roxy Music and then to Adam and The Ants, surely the strangest string of consecutive moves by any bass player, unless you count […]

Waste of time which never had any chance of preventing him doing something he wasn’t going to do anyway

When you put your money in the box when someone leaves eggs by their gate? Yeah, fuck all that

Me and Mary took my brother’s Jeep
Drove it up the Gateway, just to see the sky
Blue lights in the mirror, Mary said let’s lose ’em
Got myself a DWI

Cop said son, you were over 70
I said man, this thing […]
