Rewatch of Veep incoming....

a man says fauxlivia ruined u2 for all of us in a movie scene Alt: Fringe GIF. Walter Bishop says "fauxlivia ruined u2 for all of us"

Almost done with the rewatch of Fringe.

There's to my knowledge never been such a wonderfully crafted complex character like Walter Bishop and John Noble's portrayal of him is absolutely flawless.

What an actor. Pure awe and a shame it's almost over again.

Dat zeggen ze allemaal!

Sure, I find a great portuguese tutor on Preply and then she goes on maternity leave next month... so now I have to find someone else again... *sob*

Great start to the week!

In memoriam...

Fuckin' hell...

It'd be nice if UK (or any other media) would stop both-sidesing this fucking insanity....

My dad is obese and had a stroke and looks younger at almost 70....

What wonderful trails!

Hope the toe problem sorts itself soon!

Awh, am now sad I don't live in Bradford anymore. That sounds like a lovely event!

Selfie of me in running gear. I look rather unsure about everything and have my hand up signaling 'meh', I think. The Mountains are in the background.

Still not sure which is better: great runs when you feel great, or meh runs when you feel meh, almost didn't go, but still went. What's the verdict on that #RunningPunks? Perhaps both, but this meh run did feel like a victory and a sign of commitment of some form!

Strava image with elevation (178metres), time (39 minutes) and distance (6.13km), against a photo I took while going up the hill. Afternoon sun, valley in the background.

Yesterday's afternoon run was lovely and just so full of energy, didn't expect that when we set off, but I was having it, and ran more up that dreaded hill than ever before! It's good to be back to rhythm 💚

Today we had a get together with our neighbours and it really was lovely to meet everyone. We practiced our Portuguese a lot, shared our homebrewed beers, tasted their homemade wine and hootch, laughed a lot and made plans to work together in the future.. sometimes social stuff isn't too terrible!.

This. What a way to deal with this non-issue

Just caught up with #MotoGP

How the fuck can you not at least appreciate Marc Marquez. Talent, dedication and fucking grit. What a racer, what an achievement.

New Yorker cartoon, shows a couple of young people sitting across each other in a diner. One bangs their fist on the table, saying: "I'm so disgusted with people who aren't speaking up right now! But they better have flawlessly curated statements when they do-unless they're ignorant on the issue, in which case they better educate themselves but also they're too late."

This. On everything. Forever.

Phew!

Oh no it isn't. IT IS SEPTEMBER (no, secretly I still want to believe it's June...)

Yeah, sometimes, when I just really want one nice drink after work I'll do it, sit on the balcony and really enjoy that one can/bottle. It's not THAT strict, but I also don't want to go back to the Covid times temptations where we sponsored A LOT OF BREWERIES ordering stuff...!

I'm still sat behind my desk preparing to send emails that people with a) not read, b) not act upon, c) be angry about.

Also keeping to (or trying) the Fri/Sat/Sun only for alcohol. So far so good the last few weeks.

Same.

I did by accident once when the kettle had turned off... although I rectified that and then put it on again... 't Was a long brew day..

What a fucking great piece of news in these dark days of anti everything, including anti-science and anti-medicne.

HURRAY. I don't even know anyone with Huntington's and this is just bringing tears to my eyes of sheer happiness. What GREAT news.

So, no Rapture then?

I really don't want it today, there's two beers in two fermenters that I have yet to try...

Ugh.
