Year: 2019

  • I Miss My Dad

    Christmas and New Year can make us feel the loneliest a human can feel. If you’re out there reading this and feeling that, I understand, I’m with you. I get it. *hugs*

  • Top Albums Of The Decade Or Something

    Regular Bzangy readers, if there are any, will know that I was posting up a best album of the year list since waaay back when. I say was because my life and mental state for the last few years, since my Dad died, have conspired to make me not get this done. I realised this…

  • Poly Lols

    I love my friends. <3

  • My Very Short Review Of The Sony Xperia 5

    I had high hopes for this phone, I’m looking to replace my Samsung Note 10 Plus because the in-screen fingerprint sensor basically is shite. So, unboxed the Sony, lovely lovely, booted aaaaand… What a wonderful start! Okay… let’s reboot. Hmmm… seems a bit hot at the back. Ah, I’m sure it’ll be okay… …..aaaaand back…

  • Creepy Old Man

    That’s me when I was a kid. Around the time this pic was taken, my Mummy tried to have a birthday party for me and my schoolfriends. Bear in mind that both my parents were doctors so we lived in white neighbourhoods, upper working class ones as white middle and upper class people would not…

  • Fizzing

    So much has been happening to me. So much loveliness. I’m fizzing. Do you know those times when you are so terribly excited that you start to lose the ability to speak lucidly or slow down enough to be intelligible? Those times when all the tiny hairs on the back of your neck seem to…

  • The Fat Trekkies Guide To DST

    I’m a huge, fat Trekkie. I am not merely plump, I am massive. My weight wanders, as with a lot of very obese people but it’s always in excess of 350lbs / 25 stone / 159kg. I’ve loved Star Trek since I was a fat nipper and so I feel qualified to write this. Going…

  • Fucknut Winklechips

    Just got banned from a Berlin Models & Photographers group on FB I was hoping to find a nude model on for my visit to Germany in October. I checked all the rules and regs before I posted so I can only conclude that they kicked me for a surfeit of FUCK THE POLICE posts…

  • Carnival Row

    Carnival Row

    I wasn’t expecting much of Carnival Row. I put it on just to have something to watch while eating my tea. The foundations of my prejudice were twofold. First, that many Amazon Originals are as lethargic and under-edited as their Netflix cousins, second, the casting of Cara Delevingne. If that sounds mean, you’re misunderstanding. I…

  • Helping Google With Their Vids

  • Per Ardua Ad Astra

    From “aliens built the pyramids” types to moon landing conspiracists, there will always be people who deny humanity’s capacity for sheer, utter brilliance. Here’s to the humans that make the impossible happen and the ones who died trying. <3

  • Where Are My Games?

    I’m watching a YouTube vid previewing upcoming games for late 2019 / early 2020. And I’m bored. There’s a slew of FPSes, some open-world, some not. There are some RPGs, there are some top-down tactical hoo-has. And that’s it. It’s the blandest offering of blanditude I can remember in a good long time. There’s nothing…

  • Garden June 2019

    I love the way my garden changes all year round. There are always new plants, new wee beasties, new things to photograph. Who could get bored? Every trip out is a tiny safari.

  • Dinner With Simon And Andy

    What’s better than hanging out with Trekkies at DST? Meeting up with Trekkies when DST isn’t on to scoff food and have a long, long rambling natter! 🙂

  • Top Albums

    I arranged the above listpic at https://www.neverendingchartrendering.org/ and it’s one of the easiest, most fun ways I’ve found of making an album list. Of course, the order of the albums is always changing is ones fall out of favour or I hear something new that has to be included. What are yours?

  • Trump’s Vision For Britain

    I watch a US YouTuber called PotatoJet, he’s a video expert. He recently broke his arm skateboarding and he revealed the bill for it to be fixed: $44,000. That’s £34,940. That’s what we will be expected to pay if the Tories kill the NHS or hand it to Trump, as they’re planning to. If you…

  • Naomi

    Being all lovely.

  • YouTube Profits From Fascism

  • USA Threatens Coup Against Corbyn

  • Labour Victory In Peterborough

    This is a Labour win in a 61% Leave-voting area! Since Labour won, this victory will *not* be attributed to Corbyn or Labour party policy / campaigning. If Labour had lost, we’d have no fucking end of ‘Corbyn must go!’ bullshit from the liberal and Tory press, from every anti-socialist source possible. They’d be crowing…

  • Dump Trump 4/6/2019

    I just got back from the Dump Trump protest and I’m fucking knackered and falling asleep but I had to process and post these pics while they were still **now**, you know what I mean. Already, I’ve seen complete bullshit in the bourgeois media, saying that only “hundreds” were protesting. Were were there in our…

  • Moog One Pics

    Have a look at my beautiful, beautiful baby! <3

  • Moog One Patches

    Awwwww yeahhhhhhhh….

  • Mute – A Visual Document

    Look what arrived just now! If, like me, your youth was basically formed by the label Mute, you’ll love this. Eschewing the wordy for a visual ramble, this is the Mute story in bold, stark images. I’ve read many, many books about Depeche Mode, Mute Records and their hugely influential relationship with electronic music. Whether…

  • IAAF Spews More Hate

    I am NOT SORRY to keep posting about this…This person was born a woman, she identifies as a woman, she IS A WOMAN FFS! If you’re a bloke and the IAAF measured your testosterone and said, ‘Good news, it’s low enough for you to compete as a woman!’ – how would you feel? Would it…

  • IAAF Attacks Intersex Athletes

    Caster Semenya has lost a landmark case against athletics’ governing body meaning it will be allowed to restrict testosterone levels in female runners. The Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas) rejected the South African’s challenge against the IAAF’s new rules. But Cas said it had “serious concerns as to the future practical application” of the…

  • Alex In The Sun

  • Naomi

  • Tiamat’s Wrath

    I was worried the quality would fall, that the cachet of being a TV series would lead to a reflexive simplification of the characters or more tv-friendly arcs. Nope! The penultimate book in The Expanse series is sad, funny, horrific, beatific and everything else they all have been from book one.

  • The Victims Of Fascism

    These people were murdered by a Nazi. All the Nazi apologists out there, the alt-righters, Pewdiepie fans, Gamergaters, MRAs and assorted racist edgelords… this is the culture they have created.

  • Canon RP Test Shots

    So, I bought one of the most-hated-on-the-net cameras, the Canon RP and here are my first test shots: Yeah… I think I’ll be keeping it… 😛

  • Why I Love The Order (No Spoilers)

    Take a look at the pic above. Not the most inspiring, is it? If I had judged The Order by its promo, I could easily have skipped one of the best bits of television I’ve seen in my life. Yes, The Order is that good. Netflix is nothing if not fecund. Its womb overflows with…

  • Insult To Injury

    It’s not enough that you confuse me, say one thing then the opposite, stop start, set boundaries but never respect mine. You have to add to that by calling me a liar. When have I lied? I’m not your fucking idiot ex. Don’t confuse me with him because that is the worst slur I can…

  • Dom & Jodie

    Taken with my Fuji XT-3 which I eventually sold on… nice shots but I had trouble with the focussing on the day far more than everyone else reports.

  • Olympus Nature Macros

    All taken on my OM-D EM1 Mk2 and 60mm macro lens. People hate on micro 4/3 because you “can’t do deep bokeh.” Yeah… right..

  • The Fundamental Fysiks Group

    These crazy cats, though: “The Fundamental Fysiks Group was founded in San Francisco in May 1975 by two physicists, Elizabeth Rauscher and George Weissmann, at the time both graduate students at the University of California, Berkeley. The group held informal discussions on Friday afternoons to explore the philosophical implications of quantum theory. Leading members included Fritjof Capra, John Clauser, Philippe Eberhard, Nick Herbert, Jack Sarfatti, Saul-Paul Sirag, Henry…

  • My Review Of The ASUS ROG Strix GL703GM-EE063T 17.3-Inch FHD 120 Hz with 3 ms Screen Gaming Laptop (Black) (Intel i7-8750H Processor, 8 GB RAM, 128 GB PCI-E SSD + 1 TB HDD, NVidia GTX 1060 6 GB, Windows 10)

    I don’t doubt the gaming calibre of the latop; it’s all there. What I do doubt is that anyone could use it as a daily PC without being driven insane by the (stereo) fans. From the get go, this machine was like standing behind an RB211 and that was with it doing nothing. Literally nothing,…
