David Attenborough [whispering]:
“As the predators close in on their helpless prey, we can only watch in silent horror, for it is not man’s role to interfere in the hierarchy of nature.”
I really enjoyed the Dungeon Crawler Carl books. I went through them all so quickly.
BBC Four is repeating This Life to coincide with its 30th anniversary, beginning with a double bill on Wed 18 March with a new filmed intro from Daniela Nardini. #ThisLife
One of the first TV shows that I remember being obsessed by
I've never had a book make me question my own sanity this much 😂
Knowing that I had not previously purchased it but finding it far too familiar to be dismissed left me feeling like I was in the bloody book!
A couple of chapters in and I had to stop and solve the mystery. I was very relieved to find that it had been serialised on the SCP wiki years ago!
I kept hearing people raving about There Is No Antimemetics Division and it sounds like the kind of thing I like so I picked it up a few weeks ago.
Straightaway it started fucking with my head because the more pages I read, the more certain I became that I'd already read it...
My New Year burnout meant I haven't been tracking my reading so finally caught up with it today. Very surprised to find that I've read 16 books so far this year!
I need more stress management tools in my arsenal to stop me endlessly doom scrolling.
Work has been all consuming since the start of the year. I keep postponing the most daunting tasks which is clearly a bad idea.
I know I should take breaks to avoid burning out but I then keep thinking about all the urgent things I need to do.
I'm always hoping in vain the next week will be easier

I don't know why I have this photo on my phone but I'm glad I do
I do miss this place but it's just been such a hectic year that I've not felt I could ever spare the time.
I've not even kept up with movie watching. Nearly two months into 2026 and I've only watched 4!
It seems the only thing that could motivate me enough to come back here is #Sanremo2026
And as we heard this year's Sanremo theme tune, we also heard this year's Eurovision entry for San Marino

My niece in Stonehaven, near Aberdeen, has made a snow dalek that's featured in the Aberdeen Press and Journal. #proudaunt
I don't mean to brag but...
Nearly 8 hours into the first day back and I've still not accidentally typed 2025 😎
I finally switched our business email over to our website domain instead of the Hotmail one we had been using.
Nearly 5 years that's been sitting near the top of my To-do list.
Feels like I've aged another 5 years trying to get it functional.
Here's hoping it's easier this year
I've definitely been feeling snowed under by notifications whenever I pick up my phone so have started culling anything nonessential. Same with emails.
I need to reduce this overload of information clamouring for my attention.
I keep planning to post here but never do.
I don't know why but social media is feeling like a chore these days.
Hear me out... 6-day weekends
This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥
I loved the lighting 😄
201/ Snake Eyes
At the time I think all I'd seen of Cage was The Rock, Con Air and Face/Off so this was a big change.
📽️ 200/ The Princess Bride
For my 200th flick of the year I had the pleasure to introduce @dionisea.bsky.social to The Princess Bride ☺️

Never fails to be better than I remembered.

I have recently started working with a therapist. It's been helpful so far. Dealing with work stress is something I think we need to focus more on though.
