@gedeonm@mastodon.social @HeatherInNZ@mastodon.nz A quick internet search tells me you can still buy these things, which I am happy about. https://www.audioroom.com.au/products/45-rpm-record-inserts

@gedeonm@mastodon.social relevant to a conversation I was having with @HeatherInNZ@mastodon.nz last week!

#JukeboxFridayNight #Dirty The White Stripes - Dead Leaves And The Dirty Ground Dead leaves and the dirty ground When I know you're not around Shiny tops and soda pops When I hear your lips make a sound When I hear your lips make a sound https://youtu.be/7OyytKqYjkE

#JukeboxFridayNight #Dirty Woody Guthrie - So Long, Its Been Good To Know Yuh (Dusty Old Dust) A dust storm hit, an' it hit like thunder; It dusted us over, an' it covered us under; Blocked out the traffic an' blocked out the sun, Straight for home all the people did run, Singin': CHORUS: So long, it's been good to know yuh; So long, it's been good to know yuh; So long, it's been good to know yuh. This dusty old dust is a-gettin' my home, And I got to be driftin' along. https://youtu.be/QhAt4RdROok

@mike@social.chinwag.org @piepants@famichiki.jp I used to love mobile phones. Getting a new one was great because you were excited to see what games and ringtones it had, rather than checking to see what bloat and rubbish you had to disable and uninstall.

#JukeboxFridayNight #PersonalPlaylist Deep in the pandemic, though spared the worst of it in North Queensland, trying to provide cancer care with reduced staff and a deep fear for the future. This came on ABC one evening and struck a chord with me. Under the Pressure - The War on Drugs https://youtu.be/vkLOg252KRE

#JukeboxFridayNight#PersonalPlaylist Mid-late 20s. Living on my own after the breakup of my first big significant relationship. Used to spend Saturday afternoons in the West End of Glasgow buying CDs. Got a copy of "Chet Baker Sings" and put it on that evening. When I got to this track I realised I may not be as settled in my single life as I thought I was, and found myself in floods of tears. (I had listened to a Chet Baker CD a lot with my ex) I Get Along Without You Very Well - Chet Baker I get along without you very well, Of course I do, Except when soft rains fall And drip from leaves, then I recall The thrill of being sheltered in your arms. Of course, I do. But I get along without you very well. I've forgotten you just like I should, Of course I have, Except to hear your name, Or someone’s laugh that is the same, But I've forgotten you just like I should. https://youtu.be/hqRtTjQD0RE

@frogglin@theblower.au I took my oldest child to see the Wiggles there over ten years ago. I am reminiscing about how much better the Wiggles were back then, so am also definitely old.

#JukeboxFridayNight #PersonalPlaylist This was the standout track from a great album in early 2001. Later that year, as military action followed terrorism, the tune, and it's name, took on a deeper meaning. I remember seeing Mogwai in Glasgow in late 2005, shortly before I left the country. That year had seen relationship breakdowns, family illness and death. This tune started, I looked at my brother, he looked at me. We'd been through a lot and now I was moving to the other side of the planet. Still miss having him close. 2 Rights Make 1 Wrong - Mogwai https://youtu.be/zg7REZbQ-A0

#JukeboxFridayNight #History I'm late to this but wanted to put this one on. A poignant song about the working class history of Lanarkshire. De Rosa - Hattonrigg Pit Disaster "The masters living life on a plate. Us bastards digging and letting ourselves be tools to other's ends. Hattonrigg Pit disaster nineteen ten. We've come a long way since then." https://youtu.be/pL25WIYXj2k

@Nanoraptor@mastodon.social still has that new-account smell!

@bazkie@beige.party @radiojammor@mastodon.scot Actually, this doesn't even look like an EB6. It wouldn't have had a Bigsby tremolo. It looks like an #ai_slop picture of Jack Bruce holding a Gibson SG. The kind of inaccuracy that shows why this technology is worse than useless. It's disrespectful to the late artist and to the photographers whose work was cribbed and aggregated for this. Makes a mockery of the left-leaning political positions this account seems to support.

@tc_morekindness@c.im thank you. To be honest, the place I was working and the specialty I was working in meant I had it relatively easy. Those people working in Emergency and in Intensive Care had an unbelievably traumatic time - many will be suffering still. A year or so later, I had a visit from an old friend who told me that lockdowns were a waste of time, mask wearing was silly, the vaccines didn't work and all the people who died from COVID had pre-existing conditions. That's an ex-friend now.

@debe@mastodon.nz for some of us it's uncomfortably close...

Incredible to think that this was two albums ago. What a talent. Storm Queen - Grace Cummings Townes Van Zandt Took a hold of my hand So I wouldn't feel alone I just can't feel alone It could be A creation of my own So I don't feel so alone I just can't feel alone It's the time for life Not dying, dying Your hand inside mine, mine Is like a country tune https://youtu.be/PIimbDtEEaM #JukeboxFridayNight #Royalty

@Captain_Jack_Sparrow@mastodon.world @mildpeach@mstdn.social @bich@apobangpo.space Always amazes me not only how expensive healthcare is in the USA, but also what poor value "consumers" get.

@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social I like the attention to detail here. The web address ends in .au and the phone number is in the Philippines.

#JukeboxFridayNight #Birds Birdbrain - Buffalo Tom https://youtu.be/QnJCpx98BDo Title track of their second album. Another fine 1990 release.

Saw Four Tet pictured in this Pitchfork article and immediately thought of Reg Barclay. #StarTrek

#JukeboxFridayNight #CloseToOurHearts The lungs are close to the heart. I saw you in the carpet shades Then I felt you like a baby's face Just float along and fill your lungs Just float along and breathe a deep breath Float Along - Fill Your Lungs by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard #kgatlw https://youtu.be/VXQGIp_rMds

@Natasha_Jay I think this is important for doctors in primary care to think about. My impression is - PSA is an imperfect tool in prostate diagnosis and management, even in cis men on no hormonal agents. For individuals on any form of hormonal therapy, the results need an interpretation specific to the context. I have had patients on androgen blockers like finasteride or dutasteride who have developed prostate cancer with low PSAs. I've also had patients with hypogonadism who have developed prostate cancer in the context of a very low testosterone, also with a low PSA. My view is that anyone on any form of hormonal therapy should be guided more by trends in PSA than by single values.

@jimkennedy@mas.to good idea looking at something interesting on paper instead of a screen. I recently did something similar and discussed it with @syntaxseed@phpc.social

@eclectech Very similar thing happening in Victorian state election here. Again, electoral commission can't do anything as no specific rules have been broken. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04-30/avi-yemini-free-palestine-political-party-concerns-experts/106618082?utm_source=abc_news_app&utm_medium=content_shared&utm_campaign=abc_news_app&utm_content=other

@syntaxseed@phpc.social I can't speak for the French version, but I've been playing it in English and I like it. https://www.abandonware-france.org/ltf_abandon/ltf_jeu.php?id=71

@koosli@aus.social moved to Melbourne from Queensland in 2023 and could not believe the heating bills. We changed the ducted gas heating to electric, then got solar panels, then changed to an electric water heater, then changed the gas cooktop. Expensive, but it didn't feel like throwing money away, which is the feeling you get from paying bills. Poorly insulated 80s house with terrible windows still meant we fell short of "cosy".

@radiojammor@mastodon.scot Why is Jack Bruce, the famous bassist, playing a guitar here? Silly question - I checked the alt text and it let me know this was an AI picture. What rubbish.

#JukeboxFridayNight #AWiderWorld Released in 1991, with lyrics in English and in Gumatj, a dialect of the Yolngu language spoken in Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory, where most of the band are from. The song was released to draw attention to the lack of a treaty between indigenous Australians and the Australian government - something previous prime minister Bob Hawke had said would happen by 1990. Yothu Yindi - Treaty https://youtu.be/Jf-jHCdafZY

@Natasha_Jay Absolutely. The idea that trans women don't get prostate cancer at all is wrong and potentially very damaging.

@johnquiggin@aus.social Unfortunately that sounds like exactly the kind of thing the Democrats would do.

@gedeonm@mastodon.social @HeatherInNZ@mastodon.nz Also referenced by The Black Crowes on the cover of their album "Three Snakes And One Charm", which contained the hit single "One Mirror Too Many" although apart from that I can't remember much about it.

Malcolm Middleton - We're All Going To Die When you can't sleep at night and there's no one to hold you Remember I'm going through the same You've got to laugh into the dark, we're all one in a million We're alive, we existed, we took part... in the game #JukeboxFridayNight #LifeWellLived https://youtu.be/BbL9Vsobx8I?si=4jU-LJnom9AYG2JK
