This website is all about writing down some of the dross that circles around in my head. Some of it’s quite funny (some of it isn’t – it’s just plain moaning), but I thought I’d write some of it down, in case anyone else is interested in it. I mean, you never know. It might amuse someone else other than me. I’ve had lots of dross in my head for all of my life by the way (it’s probably what makes me such a dick), so I thought it might be therapeutic in some sort of weird way to dump it onto electric paper. At the very least though, it’ll stop me from bothering people.
It is highly likely that there are opinions in these articles. Probably quite a lot of opinions. But bear in mind that these are my opinions. We may not agree on these opinions, but they are my opinions. If my opinions offend you, please accept my apologies and move away quietly. Please close the door behind you.
Please note that you can’t email me and comments are disabled. However, if you’ve read some stuff and it’s made you laugh, brilliant. That’s the point. Please feel free to revisit at your leisure. New things will be posted as and when I think of them (and you can subscribe to be notified when this happens.) Oh and I am on some Social Media (links at the bottom of the page), you’re welcome to say hello if you like.

Using the form on the Subscribe page, you can enter your email address to receive an email when The Rigor Mortist (me) writes and publishes a new blog post.
We will only keep your email address for the purposes of this email newsletter and should you unsubscribe, your email address will be removed immediately from the database.
We aren’t going to do anything with your email address, other than send you the new post alert. We aren’t going to send you anything unsolicited, such as marketing, or asking you for money, or spamming you with pointless adverts.
When you type in your email address and click the Subscribe button, you’ll be sent an email to confirm your email address. Click on the link to confirm and you’re done. Next time The Rigor Mortist posts a blog post, you’ll get an email note.
Emails are scheduled to be sent once a day (only if there’s a new post).
The Rigor Mortist is an App
Well, almost. The website is available as a progressive web app (PWA), which means that if you’re using Edge, Chrome, Safari etc. then you can add the site as an icon to your homepage or desktop and use the website as a full screen app.
This works on desktop, tablet and mobile phone. Enjoy.
The Colour Picker
The site has a button in the top menu bar (next to the search box) that will allow you to choose between dark and light mode. Toggle the button to switch between the two. It’s not set to do it automatically based on your browser settings, as that can be a pain in the arse!
Anniversary and Birthday Posts etc.
On the odd occasion, I’ll publish a post celebrating someone’s birthday, or celebrating the anniversary of something, such as an album, an event or even a TV series.
These are one-of-a-kind posts: I’ll write and publish a post celebrating someone’s birthday, e.g. Frances de la Tour (she celebrated an 80th birthday recently) but that will be it.
There might be exceptions, for example in ten years time, when Frances de la Tour is 90 (a milestone birthday), then I may write another post just to celebrate that (or I might not).
Or if an album that I like reaches a milestone anniversary, e.g. Jean Michel Jarre’s Oxygène album will be 50 years old in December 2026.
Obviously, it’s only about things, or people I like! 😁
