A little bit of politics, a little bit of film, a little bit of design, and a tad too much gaming. Other interests: ceramics, fragrance, life sciences, and food. If I'm not flying, I'm planning a flight. 🏳️‍🌈🇬🇧

📍 London
Seeing the lights turn on behind my friend’s eyes when I convince him to eat a bite of medium rare steak instead of his usual well-done.

One of the great pleasures in life as an Englishman is to sit in the quiet coach of a train and (quietly) stew with unbridled anger at anyone who dares make a noise.

London is suddenly so much quieter, way less tourists. This Christmas period was *intense*, way way busier than even pre-Covid Christmas/New Year.

Almost Christmas, did zero Christmas shopping (for other people) this weekend.

On this day in 1999, 25 years ago, Pokémon Gold & Silver were first released.

These games started the second generation and had you travel through Johto to defeat Gyms and defeat Team Rocket before heading back to Kanto!

I’m a little obsessed with this new Porsche, if only they didn’t put the ugly text on the door.

I know I'm getting old now because I'm planning to do a shop at the Big Waitrose with the John Lewis above it after work today and I'm more excited than I am when I'm planning to go out-out.

yes I used bluesky before it was cool (I posted here once in 2023 when everyone was fighting for invite codes then forgot about it)

Word of this morning is ‘procaffeinate’: to put everything on hold until you’ve had sufficient amounts of coffee.

At Copenhagen Airport on my way back to London 🫡 (also it’s mad how an iced latte in Denmark is £6.30 and it’s £2.60 in Sweden lmao)

I’ve been doing so much socialising in Sweden when I get back to the UK I’m going to have to lock myself in at home and decompress for a few days 😭

Still shocked how cheap Sweden has become if you are paid in GBP. When I lived here in 2013/14, it felt so expensive at £1 = 10 kronor, but now it's 13.9. My cappuccino just cost me £1.95 and last night I bought dinner + a drink for myself and a friend and it cost just ~£43 all in!

I love that Lykke Li just randomly re-released her 2 year old album reversed instead of anything new. Such low energy effort I can relate to.

I feel like this app has finally properly kicked off, but also it’s a much healthier place… X brought out the worst in people (including myself) and was toxic, this feels much more positive vibes.

My favourite thing about Bluesky so far is I can open links in Safari rather than an awful ‘in app browser’.
