I did some DIY and made Elton John, for some reason.

'Grouting' has to be one of the best words in the English language. It's surprising how mundane it actually is.

Tree and house admiration at Nymans c/o National Trust. Lovely spongy bark. Such happy trees.

So afraid now. If the world can be run by bullies, there's fuck all hope for regular joes. They think they're on the bully's side until he turns on them.
The parallels with Nazi Germany are obvious. People afraid to speak out. It's so sad for humanity. Why do we always shoot ourselves in the foot.

Here's just a random collection of #Edinburgh scenes from the walk back to the station this morning. Such a pleasing place to visit.

I really should post here more.
Been up in #Edinburgh at MOVE Summit. Helped out with some 1:1 creative sessions, and spoke on a panel about the future of commissioning.
Judging by the vibrancy of the whole shebang I think the animation industry is alive and kicking!😁

Is AI tagging itself?
Otherwise it's going to end up in an echo chamber like the rest of us.🤯

Looks like the snow is finally melting away today 😔
Mixed emotions because it arrived in a blizzard (and scary drive) and lingered with black ice.
But it is nice to look at.

Frosty out there. Beautiful sunlight in Lewes.
But where on earth is my dog?
