Patrick Cowley was a pioneer of electronic dance music. He was born in Buffalo, NY and today is his birthday. It’s really hard to find his grave, so I fixed it.

I have been thinking.
Maybe the collapse of Truss's voodoo budget is even more important than people realise?
"But it is huge!", you cry, "biggest story since the fall of Boris!"
Yup - I think it may be bigger than that. Way bigger.
Here is what I am thinking...

A party that puts up trade barriers with its biggest market and stops its own citizens from being able to work with and sell freely to 450m consumers is anti-growth.

So apparently we can't stop Truss walking out to our song, very weird! So sad it got used by this shower of a government. BTW Truss labour used it with permission in 90's. I don't want my song being a soundtrack to lies.

Yesterday was bad. It was, in fact, very, very bad. If Johnson was a disaster, Truss has set out to be worse. I very much doubt that any prime minister has set out to create so many conflicts from the outset of their premiership in the way that Truss has. A thread….

Rising panic over the energy crisis brings it into sharp relief: the Tories, despite being populists, failed on every front to govern for the people. But don't be fooled. They may have failed us, but they were busy. Busy using their majority to ram through a raft of legislation.

'An administration built entirely on lies and the bogus charisma of one of the most fraudulent individuals ever to inhabit public life in Britain, has come to an inevitable and inglorious end.'

I went a little crazy with setting wallpaper using Shortcuts (iOS 14.3 beta 3). Every half hour, my phone generates a new random composition from these industrial cityscape photos I took around the East Bay. This makes me immeasurably happy.
