I don’t wear the shoes I used to walk in.

~ Fender, Sam, Crumbling Empire, 2025

IMHO, Sam Fender has released the album of the year. 48 minutes of soaring, working class, confessionals that are as joyous to sing along with as they are bleak; it is a poignant record for the challenging and uncertain times in which we find ourselves. Find it on your streaming service of choice, press play and keep your “chin up”.

@georgepenney I just wanted to let you know that I really love your little observations and insights into small bits of happy lifes.

I don't read all of your pieces but when I do, it gives me back some kindness I miss these days.

Suggestion: think of a hashtag to label such stories and maybe start a movement so that people like me are able to follow that hashtag for similar stories. Is there already a hashtag for it? 🤔

I'm not sure if I do have good candidates: #lifeflahes #observationstories #peoplewatching #miniscenes #scenesofjoy

Sam Fender ist bekannt für seine gesellschaftskritische Musik mit melancholischen Gitarren-Sounds und viel Gefühl. Und das kommt noch von irgendwo. Wir schauen uns Sam Fenders Werdegang an und hören in seine neuste Single rein.

I came to a bar to read and this person who clearly didn't know the bar but did see the pinball machine from the street got so excited they came in the wrong door, quickly plopped down their bag next time to machine, played a couple games and then left.

Bless. I tried not to watch but it was not hard to live vicariously at their sudden delight at the pinball machine.
