Sampling a book recommended by Ms. Smith and a simple scene revealed an old bloke reading a newspaper. No big whoop, very respectable. Hold on - what if I was reading the NYTimes on my smartphone and you looked over - you’d assume I was doomscrolling right? And I’d feel guilty for wasting my day.

Ok photogs and YouTubers - you’re running out the door - what’s your grab ‘n go for video - iPhone, DJI Action, Pocket3 or your Mirrorless? But it’s getting dark so…

Hmm. I’m sure that’s a sound argument, but it doesn’t sit well in my gut. Park this for deep convo looking at Lake Huron in a few weeks.

Torn. A week ago I was excited about going to see #F1TheMovie. I’ve been a F1 fan for most of my life. I know there’s going to be a ton of over-the-top stuff and ickiness. I can’t not see it. Just need to manage expectations and resist the hype from F1 drivers and supporting cast.

Happy Music Friday. Liked seeing how some great dance tracks came together. Beautiful and creative visuals had me glued. youtu.be/FpaoCUEhZJM

I don’t understand how Florida could be home to a hockey powerhouse, but I have to say the fan support is impressive - I even heard real singing tonight. Welcome to the passion of ice Panther fans. Congrats on your Stanley Cup.

YouTube video by Talking Heads Talking Heads - Psycho Killer (Official Video)

A superb new video interpretation of a massively fabulous classic song - genius acting range and spot-on editing Talking Heads + Saorise Ronan + Mike Mills = 5/5 youtu.be/CJ54eImz88w?...

I’m interested in learning and practicing tai chi. I don’t think it should be difficult to start, but I’d like a simple, solid reference point - like a reputable YouTube channel. Any suggestions?

I’m using DJI Mic mini now for video work - small wireless and high quality and not too expensive.

A little Swedish taste sensation as I head to my second Scandinavian vacation stop “Choklad + Kaffe is a salty licorice button rolled in chocolate and coffee. A fantastic combination of flavours!”

I accidentally took this screen shot last night and it’s a nice indirect way of documenting day 1 of my vacation.

YouTube video by Netflix Black Mirror: Season 7 | Official Trailer | Netflix

Season 7 of Black Mirror is 6 electrifying independent stories - taking today’s glimpsable technology and asks - what could possibly go wrong? Thought-provoking plot lines exploring topics of AI, sentient beings, immersive gaming, quantum mechanics, and subscriptions. Enjoy youtu.be/1iqra1ojEvM?...

YouTube video by Rogers Canada Keanu stays connected through the unexpected with Rogers Xfinity Storm-Ready WiFi.

I can’t say I’m a big fan of Rogers or Mr. Reeves, but I love these Keanu ads - superb natural fun acting youtu.be/nmxe4Pgh7gs?... youtu.be/Elv9gbF8y_E?...

Adolescence (TV Mini Series 2025) ⭐ 8.2 | Crime, Drama, Mystery 1h | TV-MA

Such a powerful 4 part mini-series. A shocking & heartbreaking story for any parent. I just want to give my kids a big hug when I see them next. Superb cast, esp. 15 yr old Cooper. Incredible 1 shot per episode filming. A difficult watch, but important and worthwhile.

Lots in here but it maps my music timeline so well. Tricky to track the most popular artists, and I love the gradual shifts in genre. I’d say almost every major artist has a slot and I know about 85% of the tracks, and there’s some gems I’d forgotten. youtu.be/nNoaXej0Jeg?... #rediscoveringreatmusic

"Black Mirror" Common People (TV Episode 2025) ⭐ 8.1 | Crime, Drama, Mystery 56m | TV-MA

One of the best shows is back. Season 7 of #BlackMirror starts with a bang. Episode 1 is a perfect example of what this show does so well - what could possibly go wrong with a new technology that isn’t that far-fetched.

Respect.

Such a magnificent performance by #Arsenal today and MOTM Declan Rice - wow - take a bow mate on two incredible free kick goals. Now we need the same energy and passion for the second leg at the Bernabeu next Wednesday. #UCL #AFC

I’m satisfied my thoughts about the finale of White Lotus were shared in (more eloquent) reviews from Kathryn VanArendonk (New York magazine, Brady Langmann (Esquire), and Kimberly Bond (Bazaar)

Just watched the finale of #WhiteLotus s3. SPOILERS. I loved the complexity of lots of characters but many of their outcomes were disappointing. The turns of personalities felt too safe. The most shallow group showed us some human touch - but it wasn’t enough to close with the depth it deserved.

This day of the week is new music Fridays to me. I compiled some best ofs and found some new tracks, but I have two beautiful virtuoso findings to share. I love music, all kinds of music, but these are remarkable examples of the joy of music: youtu.be/TURkB9zqxa0?... and youtu.be/FwPjdlBMcOc?...
