CarolJude on Twitter (used more than this place) Regular old crone who likes pop culture stuff and interesting art and writing. I hope whatever I post will be interesting to someone else and whenever possible I will try to not be a dead rotting bird in your punchbowl.
Gender issues, porny fan art, and endless suffering do not interest me. Pretty much everything else DOES.

The NEW #DoctorWho companion will be unveiled on Children in Need on BBC One starting at 7pm UK time on Friday!
#Mastodon, in 4-column view you need a "Back to Top" button to jump to where the new tweets are in the local timeline; the tiny scrollbar button on the right edge of the frame's a little tricky to drag. Thanks 🙂

Winter Kills on Upstairs at Eric's is another one I really like (but hell, I love ALL of it, lol.) Man that album was a powerhouse up here in New England college land...
@Daveosaurus Yes - that got a lot of radio play over here (New York USA) and I just loved their sound, or variety of sounds - nice mix of genres.
King and Queen of the 12" Dance remix, too. Damn I loved dancing to them back in the day...
@CJ_1014 I remember buying this album, on vinyl, back in the day. I knew the single ("Nobody's Diary") but hearing this for the first time was a revelation.
@Daveosaurus Oh wow I can't believe it's the song I was hoping it was... Was just talking about this one earlier, those lyrics, that sound. Soooo evocative. A favorite, then and now. As is Yaz(oo) the band.

Because I don't know what this week's #FridayNightJukebox theme is yet... here is something random and awesome.

A lot of the first wave of Generation X would remember Yazoo the pop group... but there was also a seriously experimental side to them (in fact, one of the songs on their first album was so experimental as to be barely listenable). This, from their second album, is MUCH better.

Alison Moyet needed a great voice to carry this one off.

She carried it off.

On Mastodon, you can add an emoji using just your keyboard by typing a colon (:) and then a keyword with no space.

For example, if you type :sun it will bring up a list of emojis that match the keyword "sun".

Just pick the one you want with arrow keys, then press enter, then carry on typing. No need for the mouse or touchpad.

This looks/sounds MUCH better over here than on T~itter...
