A friend of mine on PSN has over twelve hundred friends. Twelve hundred friends. Twelve... hundred... friends.... I start deleting my friends once I approach one hundred. But twelve hundred. How ridiculous. I reckon it's because she has a sexy French accent. I've a good mind to delete her for having so many friends. I don't feel special when I'm one of twelve hundred.

The album Tusk. What were Fleetwood Mac thinking? To go from a masterpiece like Rumours to Tusk is just puzzling. Some claim Rumours was too successful, that it led to too much money and subsequent cocaine abuse but that's not an excuse.

Going to guess it likely goes way back to when life and survival was a constant struggle, so for many people, like, always. Feels like most of us take life a lot less serious now... at least those of us who can afford to do so, with our big explosiony superhero movies, cool games and being able to diss albums like Tusk* because hearing good music is now commonplace rather than a luxury. Anyway...
*Confession: I have never listened to Tusk.

Scientists took 500,000 songs dating 1955 to 2010 from various genres and meticulously analysed them using a set of complex algorithms measuring things like harmonic complexity, timbral diversity, loudness and lyrical intelligence and discovered that qualities like originality, diversity, tonal richness, depth of sound and song writing have all been steadily in decline. They really needed to go through all that to discover that music is getting worse? Anyone with ears knows that.

I think the image is a disappointment if I'm honest but that doesn't detract from the event. It's quite an achievement.
Mad things, black holes, they completely defy logic and rationality. Professor Stephen Hawking reckoned that, contrary to the common misconception, energy is able to escape black holes via a type of radiation - something called Hawking radiation - because of the laws of quantum mechanics. That suggests that black holes are not eternal. I wonder what happens at the point a black hole ceases to be a black hole, at that moment when it loses enough mass that the gravity can no longer keep all that matter condensed, what happens? Does it explode violently like a supernova, does it fling everything out in pretty patterns like a galactic catherine wheel, does it just slowly fade into nothing? It's an interesting thought.
