The Bagel design team seriously under-resourced the UX elements of how we're going to add stuff to these things. Who the hell puts a hole in the middle of prime spreading territory?
UFC is wild nowadays.
That ostrich acted for us all, Boris.
I wonder what would happen if the UK and Europe ramped up support for Ukraine against the same mineral rights than Trump wanted?
Seems to be the prestige multi class for recruiters from what I’ve seen.
Why has LinkedIn become a procession of photos and videos of 'Bros' in front of the Dubai skyline? I guess that's peak content for the business world.....
Korean language!
Just finishing up the offshoot series of ‘The Walking Dead’ and I’m struck by how much I’d rather be in their world than this one. Albeit as one of the living!
Bright and blustery at Newquay
Writing a book, moving my 'side gig' forwards and advertising coaching services. If any of them paid any money at all, I'd be having a great year so far...
If I'm ever wondering how I'm doing as a human being, I sit down and watch a few video by the Tate brothers. If I'm doing exactly the opposite of their recommendations I consider it a win.
I can't explain my irrational hatred of people wearing baseball caps (which I love) backwards, it just is.
I need to get the washing machine blood pressure looked at.
Yellow moon over Truro #Cornwall
Cold in Cornwall today.
South California will forever be my spiritual home. Even if I can never get back to live there, my hear remains and I will never forget it. It's so hard to see it in flames. I hope everyone stays safe and things are quickly back under control.
My Spiritual home. I miss it every day without fail. While I know I'll never be able to return, my heart never left.
After feeling spectacularly let down or unsupported by many people I respected in the world of work in 2024, I'm intrigued to see if 25 continues in the same vein. It's everyone for themselves in the Games Industry right now, and it feels bad.
For anyone else who hasn't seen anything pick up for them in the New Year, don't worry. We're not in the New Year according to the Lunar Calendar, so maybe that's why!
if 2025 isn't belter than 2024 then hold my beer.
2025, the bar is set really, REALLY low. Do your best.
Well, given the last two games I’ve written the main story for have not launched, I think 2025 is the year to do the novel instead.
Screw you, 2024.
I will be glad to see the back of you.

Good lord, the Chef title in WoW is a long trek!
If I had a Porsche at the moment, I guess I'd feel obliged to attach a Christmas tree to the roof and take a picture, just like the other 23984237493827 of them on my social media photos feed at the moment.
I must applaud Royal Mail parcel service. No matter which single hour of the day I rush out to do something quickly after waiting for them all day, they manage to arrive and leave a note that I wasn't in.
My brain writes many stories each day.
So few make it any further,
I wonder if any could’ve been great?
Dramatic Cornish skies this morning
