Some things you just need to say to the world.
Something I heard today on a podcast that I need to keep forever...

Don't share big ideas with small minded people.

I don't know the origin, but thank you Grace Nicholls for sharing it.

It's nearly midnight and I'm hungry. I had two big meals with protein and an afternoon coffee today.

I feel unrewarding for avoiding snacks.

@katie0martin.ft.com kpop demon hunters is awesome. And I'm 44, childless and never mentally grew up, because I didn't see the point.

Please tell Ian Smith that he is right to go short. But also right that it is awesome.

I was never a fan of Christmas songs. Working at Woolworths during my youth cemented my contempt.

But it worsens with age.

It's official, cycling in London is antisocial.

First, a group of teenagers on kingsway on the pavement complain that I'm walking where they want to cycle.

Then three 30 somethings are ignoring red lights at pedestrian crossings on lime bikes on Aldwich

Bastards!

When you apply for a role speculatively, and fail the culture test, what are you supposed to take from that?

It could be because I haven't updated LinkedIn in a year. But LinkedIn is the most pretentious social media of them all.

Someone in the Hammersmith and City line has chicken and chips... and I realised how hungry I am feeling...

... I may stop by at one of the ten or so options for high cholesterol in Barking on my way home.

Commuter thoughts... the glucose monitoring where you have a thing attached for a while (or all the time)... would it be useful to have something similar for a spectrum of hormones?

Snap shot blood tests are not helpful, especially if there is a day night cycle happening in the body.

It occurred to me today that my preferred use of AI isn't large language model AI. I think it is called functional based AI.

Basically use the weather and EV battery and journey planner to have realistic journey planning and EV charging schedules.

Oreo Gingerbread review...

Too much cinnamon. There is zero ginger in the ingredients. And you can tell. Definitely, mislabelled.

Dear everything on my phone.

I really, really don't want to be notified. Or to connect on WhatsApp.

If I did, I would activate it myself. I need to concentrate. I need my phone for a task. So stop asking if I want to be notified.

Stop being so attention seeking.

I know that lots of people will do this... and in the UK, black Friday is an entire month... but I have given in to an Amazon deal.

But it is such a good deal... and I need this new coffee machine to replace my second hand coffee machine.

It really bothered me that people in the UK still say out loud that the UK doesn't get hot. And they believe it!

With such bad memories and perspectives, no wonders the UK is doomed.

@financialtimes.com I am not saying that I don't like change, I would like to say that I don't like the new icons.

Nintendo music has Wii fit plus music... could I have the game on Nintendo Switch please?

I'm confused. Where is the Metroid marketing?

Wow. This is a controversial conversion.

I agree with a lot with what Tim Leunig says, but not all... but I was amused by someone else who is more opinionated than I am.
How to kickstart the UK economy. With Tim Leunig
Planning and tax reform are at the top of this ex government adviser’s list

Does anyone else feel that the Trump Administration attacks on companies is to manipulate the share price? First Intel and then Tylenol producer, Kenvue. Both have had offers or shares deals after the "criticism".

Okay, how do I tell Samsung I was playing Animal Crossing New Horizons.

Hi.

There is a reason I don't subscribe. I prefer to randomly look through your podcasts and pick what I want to listen to.

I don't like/ connect with all of the content.

Kind regards

"Interest led brain" Vanessa D'Souza, I love this term. (I'm listening to a podcast from earlier in 2025).
