Mr Hyde

Thousands of shows and films on the numerous streaming services I have and I somehow stumbled across High Potential. It’s fun, it’s cute, it’s comfortable. I love it.

‘There’s a lot of money in “claims”’ said Mel when discussing carbon dating. He accidentally nailed Rogan and most of his guests right there.
I’ve listened to every one of your episodes today btw. It’s a much better way of hearing what the Rogansphere is yapping about.

This speech is insane #inauguration

Anya only joined our family a little over a week ago and we’re already reading buddies. We might also be best friends 🐾📚

Just figured out that this is supposed to be a Toby Jug. I honestly thought it was Donald Trump 🤷

I’ve enjoyed numerous Mary Oliver poems these last couple of days but ‘When Death Comes’ won’t leave me. The last sentence especially.

Me and my boys, year after year. #PearlJam #SpotifyWrapped

I count audiobooks when I add them to my Goodreads account as ‘books read’ but I always feel that I’m cheating myself, because - inherently - I know that I didn’t read them.

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last tv show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who is coming to save you?

(I like my chances)

Arcadia Coffee House in Newport is an absolute gem of a place ☕️

Logged back into the other place for real time updates on the election. Deleted it again yesterday morning, and haven’t listened to or watched the news since then either. Creativity - and avoidance - will be my therapy.

Trump would have hated it too. It highlighted how terrible Trump was, and Vance also called his narcissistic boss his ‘running mate’.

As light lunches go, there’s not much that beats a gourmet fish finger sandwich.

Jumping on this bandwagon, I just about sneaked into the first 10%, joining on 11/9 last year. My feed back then was full of posts by the Coraline guy…not so much these days.

What a lovely day for it. #CaerphillyRFC

One of my favourite quotes in the aftermath of that debate was by @maitlis.bsky.social who said about Kamala Harris: ‘She sounded like a very kindly councillor in an old people’s home saying ‘He thinks he’s Napoleon, let’s just give him his hat and leave him to have his supper.’” 👌

I finally deleted the other one from my phone yesterday, and this place already feels better for me.

The last two evenings in France, doing France as France should be done.

I deleted Elmo Space Karen’s gross town hall from my phone. I’m already bowing, but don’t hold the applause 🎉

15 year anniversary showing of Coraline at the cinema with my kids. What a great animated film.

I love both those podcasts and will miss your voice there. I’ve moved from the other place as Quiet Riot is growing and these are feeling like new times. Good luck Alex.

Just arrived at my office for the night 🎤🎸🤟

I despise the other place but reading it became a habit. I’ve struggled to move away from there but changing its location on my phone and putting Bluesky in its place has worked wonders. Bye bye birdie!

Been cleaning, so now the windowsill on my side of the bed is looking great. Rest of the house can wait another day.

Looking forward to seeing @brianbilston.bsky.social in my hometown of Caerphilly tonight. A very apt poem of his for the day:

Something to read other than a magazine in the docs waiting room. A 20p bargain which should kill a couple of hours this spooky season.

A weekend away in Brecon with my beautiful wife. But the greatest thing about this photo is my epic t-shirt. Ten points if you know the game.

Before bed last night I read an awful book: Richard Laymon’s ‘Friday Night In Beast House’. After that dirty supper I had to find a palate cleanser and so started ‘The Halloween Tree’ by Ray Bradbury, finishing it for breakfast this morning. It’s so masterful I might just have to consume it again.

That’s pretty gross. It’s about 60 here and that’s still too warm.
