What I’m watching/reading: Preacher, the tv show. It’s twisted and bloody violent and one of the most original, atmospheric shows on tv.

Recently excited by: Alice isn’t dead, the podcast. By the Welcome to Night Vale people. Superbly weird and well done.

Weekly bits: the secret to life!

Quote o’ the week: The devil is an optimist if he thinks he can make people worse than they are. -Karl Kraus

Song o’ the week: アラグスクのうた(越城節) by he fictional band Lily Chou-Chou (watch the Japanese movie All About Lily Chou-Chou. It’s worth it). Reminds me of late nights out on the beach at after the world’s gone to sleep, wondering when the world’s gonna end…

What I’m watching/reading: The Night Manager. This mini-series would be a great James Bond story. And Tom Hiddleston would make a great James Bond.

Recently excited by: National Geographic Photographer of the Year contest. Gorgeous photos. Good way to spend 15 mins.

Weekly bits: The Doctor(!) helps explain Brexit!

Quote o’ the week: I don’t feel frightened by not knowing things, by being lost in a mysterious universe without any purpose, which is the way it really is, as far as I can tell. Possibly. It doesn’t frighten me. ― Richard Feynman

Song o’ the week: Fukuyama Masaharu／Heart. Brings back memories…

I would like much much less political “communications” these days too…
