Today's musing - now that we're done with Twitter, which one is actually worth investing the effort into - Mastodon, BlueSky or Threads? Threads appears to be the easiest because of it's integration/affiliation/whatever with Facebook but there's still a massive corporate billionaire at the top...

"...as a recent study in Nature concluded, those with both high psychopathy and low cognitive ability are the most actively involved in online political engagement." <-- Rutger Bregman, The Reith Lectures, BBC Radio 4.

Adding value to your life, one day at a time - here are my recommendations for festive listening... The Reith Lectures on BBC Radio 4 and The Rest is Politics. Also, Louis Theroux's podcast is very good and definitely worth a listen. That is all for today.

Finished Xenoblade X - very impressive, even more impressive when you consider that it was on the Wii U. Better than 3 (apart from Future Redeemed), not quite as good as 2 (Torna is literally the best game ever made). Anyway, it’s a spectacular game, and now I have to play XC:DE to complete the set.

I guess we'll have to try to figure this one out... hello world!
