  • Webcurios 21/06/19 - Reading Time: 30 minutes Man, holidays are good, aren’t they? The sun and the sea and the swimming and the ability to read books again and not having to pretend to care about the stupid clients and the stupid job and the stupid industry that you hate and disdain and want to get as fas away from as possible and…

  • Webcurios 31/05/19 - Reading Time: 25 minutes OH HELLO! I finished a job yesterday and as a result feel GREAT – even better, I seemingly managed to leave without alienating or upsetting anyone, although that will probably change next week when they realise that I have a secret backdoor login to the website and fully intend to go and make subtle but…

  • Webcurios 24/05/19 - Reading Time: 37 minutes Oh God, it’s going to happen, isn’t it? IT’S FINALLY GOING TO HAPPEN! Hello again, by the way! I am reliably informed that everything really is now fixed with Imperica – thankyou, as ever, for your forebearance and patience as we once again cobbled the website back together again with sticks and sellotape and that weird gluelike…

  • Webcurios 10/05/19 - Reading Time: 31 minutes  HELLO! NORMAL SERVICE IS ONCE AGAIN RESUMED! That’s right, it’s ME! Not the algoversion – honest – but the REAL BOY, all flesh and sebum and mucus.

  • Webcurios 26/04/19 - Reading Time: 28 minutes I AM BACK HELLO DID YOU MISS ME? No, of course not, you were all too busy stuffing yourselves with confectionery and weeping over the stigmata of the risen Christ, weren’t you? Typical. Have you had a good fortnight? Have you ‘enjoyed’ watching people getting unaccountably cross at some children asking us to maybe not…

  • Webcurios 12/04/19 - Reading Time: 35 minutes We had a species-defining moment this week – one of those rare times within a lifetime where you can step back and say “yep, that felt pretty significant, shame I’ll be worms by the time the long-term implications of it are known”. Yet did we stop staring at our jizz-filled navels long enough to enjoy…

  • Webcurios 05/04/19 - Reading Time: 33 minutes “We did the democracy!” That is an actual, direct quote from former Telegraph editor, Thatcher’s biographer and establishment pillar Charles Moore, on TV last night, about Brexit. We oughtn’t have another vote because ‘we did the democracy’. Whatever your thoughts on the rightness or wrongness of going through this hugely enjoyable experience all over again…

  • Webcurios 29/03/19 - Reading Time: 33 minutes So THIS is what control feels like! How novel, at yet simultaneously how utterly familiar! Yes, that’s right, it’s BREXIT DAY, on which we are all honour-bound to paint our faces with the cross of St George and to drink pints of warm bitter until the blood vessels in our faces burst with happy pride…

  • Webcurios 22/03/19 - Reading Time: 29 minutes ONE WEEK TO GO! OR NOT! As Schrodinger’s Brexit sits patiently in its box, we anxiously await the big reveal. Is it alive? Is it dead? IS IT IN FACT WE WHO ARE DEAD, KILLED BY TERMINAL BOREDOM? Obviously that’s all rhetorical – I have no idea! Neither do you! Neither does anyone else! Watching…
