World Cup 2026 – cynicism and corruption are no match for the vibes

Posted on 30/06/2026 by Wichita Lineman Was A Song I Once Heard

“I’m a professional cynic, but my heart’s not in it”. It’s a great lyric from a revoltingly twee song which I obsessively hated, because it incisively exposed an undesirable personal trait of mine. The video for “Country House” equally grates, … Continue reading →

Posted on 31/01/2026 by Wichita Lineman Was A Song I Once Heard

We’re only a few weeks into 2026 and many deliberations surround Donald Trump. The most common one – is he the worst person in the world? In the spirit of fairness, I feel it’s my duty to play devil’s advocate … Continue reading →

If A.I. is here to make life easier, why do I have such an aversion to it?

Posted on 30/05/2025 by Wichita Lineman Was A Song I Once Heard
