To be loved like mamdani you have to actually do something about the dying nightlife in the UK not just get an intern to write witty tweets about it
Complaining about nightlife when you *checks notes* choose to live in Soho is like living in South Kensington and complaining about the museums.

Or moving to Hackney and grumbling about creatives. Living in Richmond and hating green space. 

It's all getting a bit silly, isn't it?

Sorry.... "NOTTING HILL CARNIVAL WITH LESS CANNABIS"?!?!?!?! From The Labour MP for Islington S, Finsbury & De Beauvoir? How offensive and insulting to the British Caribbean Community and the legacy of the Windrush elders. Surely this isn't a shared view, @UKLabour???
1 1/2 million on the streets of Islington today. Celebrating Arsenal yes, but celebrating ourselves too. Notting Hill Carnival with less cannabis & more red & white. North London in all it's inclusive brilliance Never been so proud to be your MP ❤️ Total answer to Tommy Robinson

RT @redelitist: I did prefer when we used to make people feel ashamed of being this utterly poisonous and bigoted

Weird that even the police, in their tweet, though not in the full statement itself, are just airbrushing the fact that he’s being charged with three attempted murders, not two, the third person being a Muslim man he stabbed earlier in the day
A man will appear in court today charged following a Counter Terrorism Policing investigation into two men stabbed in #GoldersGreen: news.met.police.uk/news/man-…
Community note
The Met failed to mention in their post that Essa Suleiman was also charged with another attempted murder in relation to a separate incident on the same date in Great Dover Street. As found buried in the Met’s article here: news.met.police.uk/news/man-charg…

Bring back research in music journalism. Too many people are loud and uninformed, yapping without context, history, or facts. Knowledge should still matter.

The thing about music is, you really gotta just make whatever YOU want to and let that authentic approach attract the people who naturally like what you like. Anything other than that, you won’t be happy for long

Had this conversation with a friend a few weeks ago, we need gatekeepers
Longtime P&P contributor Jon Tanners (who some of you might remember from his “5 On It” column) is back with some thoughts on gatekeepers, tastemakers, and the increasingly compromised algorithms shaping what music breaks through.⁠ ⁠ If algorithms can be manipulated by the right budgets and marketing tactics, what does that mean for the idea of democratized music discovery? Was it ever really democratized at all?⁠ ⁠ Tanners makes the case that gatekeepers may still be a necessary part of the ecosystem, whether we like it or not.⁠ pigeonsandplanes.com/read/in…

We didn’t “lose” physical media. We walked away from it. The shops still exist. The discs, the vinyl, the collections, all still there waiting. Streaming is easy. Owning something is meaningful. If you miss it… support it.

The original by Kyla is better no shade

‘One Dance’ by Drake, Wizkid & Kyla is the most-streamed song featuring a female artist in Spotify history.

My favorite James Baldwin line: "There is a reason, after all, that some people wish to colonize the moon, and others dance before it as an ancient friend."

How lucky we are to experience boring, ordinary, uneventful days. Somewhere in the world, that kind of safety is unimaginable.
