I dabble in photography, so here you may occasionally find some of my work!

Here’s a brief sample:
The more I play Silksong, the more I think the first 5-6 hours need some tuning, that initial friction really goes away once you make a little more progress and get a few upgrades under your built. I’d say I’ve never progressed slower than the initial opening zones since moving onto the mid game.

Hit my limit with X so it’s UNINSTALLED!

Gonna spend my time here talking about Silksong because I absolutely slapped Moorwing after numerous tries, now I’m farming to get stocked up!

First mask upgrade has been acquired, and it feels SO GOOD 😭

Hot air balloons were flying over my flat so I thought I’d get some panoramic photos, this is how I find out my telephoto lens on my iPhone has artefacting spots now because they smeared during the pano 😭

Look at that awful smudge line 😭

Was wondering why DK and Pauline only have 2 skins in Mario Kart World, then it occurred to me they’re the main characters in DK Bonanza…

Post launch update to add skins from the game when it launches?

Surely…

At my biggest I was 122kg, I have a photo of myself at this weight when I first set foot in a gym, but I am not yet at a point where I feel comfortable sharing it. Point is I was quite large, and unrecognisable compared to where I am now, which is not my end goal, but its amazing progress!

The gym is a weird thing because it starts with:

“I need to look after myself, I’m gonna look up a starter routine and go”

Now I’m drinking pre workout 15 minutes before, intra workout mix in my water while I workout, then protein shakes after, while I research better science based lifting advice…

Bluesky feels like relaxing bar/hangout spot while X feels like a soft play area but the soft bits were replaced with concrete and the ball pit is no longer full of balls, just racists now

Honestly so hyped that Pendulum have a new album this year.

Have always found their unique blend of live instrumentation with traditional brum & Bass sounds to stand above the rest.

Also the tracks released so far are classic Pendulum, takes me back 😭

It’s 2025 why haven’t we figured out phone signal on trains?

We got racist morons running space companies but I can’t get usable data on a train? Come on man where are our priorities

I want to love BlueSky SO BAD - but the issue is:

The app doesn’t work / fails to load anything half the time

The algorithm is terrible, I interact with content I like so much and it pushes random nonsense on my feed.

A small selection of shots over the first week with my new camera 📸

If you like photography I’ll be sharing Fujifilm photography here weekly!

I remember this is the first game I ever pre ordered, which my parents did by MAILING IN THE ORDER!

I got a dvd in the mail with a trailer and a booklet of what to look forward to, it was amazing.

I still remember booting it up and seeing my characters reflection in the water.

God I’m old.
On this day in 2002, 22 years ago, Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire were first released.

These games started the third generation and introduced 135 new Pokémon. It told the story of you stopping Team Aqua or Team Magma

Porter Robinson - Easier To Love You

Such an incredible song about looking back on your darkest times and wishing you could reassure that past self that it would work out the way it did. A melancholic anthem of self love and more importantly, self forgiveness 💔

If the Bluesky gods put this post on your feed - how was your day? This app seems so much more positive than the hellscape that is X I wanna make some friends 👀

Bluesky has the potential to fully replace Twitter, the only problem is its primary user base seems to be terminally online anime fans so I’m constantly hitting “show me less like this” to try and remove annoying content

Please god let this be popular so we can obliterate X from orbit 🙏🏻
