I’m currently reviewing an article for work where we have lots of lists with categories that sometimes have two or more elements. Semicolons, your time has come!
Currently watching the afterparty season 2. I loved season 1, season 2 is solid but doesn’t feel as good as my biased memory of season 1. My wife and I signed up for Apple TV+ again to watch it. I like flicking between streaming services as there’s always something really great then.
I wonder how similar Trump and MAGA are to the “great awakening”s. Taking a very sceptical view of religion, I think it makes sense.
The exceptional part seem to be that he’s a politician.
Over the weekend I got this £5 rip off Apple Watch band. I love it. Great colour, great feel, secure fit.
The rest is history series on Martin Luthor has been fantastic. Episode 4 brought up the issue of individual interpretation of the Bible. It’s something I’ve been reflecting on after Brad East’s article last year and taking a class on hermenutics.
Made this for Easter.
The outline is a single line, I used a gold leaf clipping mask for the tomb and another grey layer for the stone.
One of the reasons I use yellow/ orange in my sketches is my interest in iconography.
A sketchnote summary of Henri Nouwen’s The Way of the Heart. I had forgotten I had made this after I read it but @mwerickson reminded me of it.
Ah the minimalism magazine that rallies against advertising…which now features adverts.
To twist a meme: You either quit a minimalist, or keep publishing long enough to sell ads.
New obsidian sync standard… I think they got me.
What’s the best way to clean a monitor (without damaging it?)
Asking for a “friend” whose monitor really needs a clean.
When you make friends with someone on micro blog you never know what will happen.
Pro tip: a work call when you don’t have to speak and have headphones in is the perfect time to hand grind coffee.
I really like this one.

I’ve started to see some rumours about the Nintendo Switch 2. It sounds like it will be a bump in spec and rumours of backwards compatibility are great. But If Nintendo are as user focused as they normally are, I think it might fail. Nintendo often keeps releasing its best games on the previous generation of consoles, so their update consoles (like the WiiU or the 3DS) often are improvements but don’t push users to upgrade. If they stop releasing games or had novel ways of playing with each generations, more people would upgrade, but they don’t. It’s great for consumers, but not great for the corporation.
Maybe I’m wrong (or the rumours are wrong) and maybe the switch 2 will be more unique / have unique games/ etc, but even if it does, I don’t think I’ll be upgrading (especially as I regularly think I should get rid of of my switch as it iss!
Just finished The Beat season 1 with my wife. A bit out off our typical series choice but very good.
Possibly my most controversial opinion:
Loving the oxford comma is a virtue signal.
The new Lublin bus station last night.
The Fujifilm x100 vi is out so of course I’m checking out Kai Wong’s review. I still remember his review of the X100T during the hong kong umbrella protests. It was so great. Also, he now lives close to my home town. I wish the X100 series wasn’t so expensive. I miss my X100T a lot, but my Nikon is great.
My colleague: I really hate working this way. We should do it that way.
Me: Okay, I’ll do it that way.
A week later
My colleague: So I’m going to do the exact thing that caused that situation last time.
Me:… But isn’t that what you disliked last time.
My colleague: No, it’s different.
Narrator: it wasn’t.
