I got this oversized blob called a zorb for my kid with autism last xmas. It soon became apparent that it was too fucking big for the living room. I donated to his school in the end.

My contention is that the Long 90s begin in 1992: first season of the Premier League, Major’s election win/Sheffield rally, Twyford Down, David Mellor & Chelsea shirt (allegedly but the discursive power is what matters), emergence of Suede &, decisively,... https://t.co/Ru8Z0XToyx

a strong reading if we simply accept that -- like the poor -- the long 90s will always be with us and the 21st century has not yet started

imagine this lad bearing down towards you, all but naked apart from a 90's Chelsea top

I wonder about this long 90s business (I arrived here in '93).

It would be funny if the 21st century post-9/11, Iraq, covid (surely the latter as a global event) hadn't somehow started.

"strange to think" that something that happened 28 years ago is as old today as something that happened *checks notes* 43 years ago was 28 years ago
