Lots of ways to be a man! Problems can lie in fitting into societal expectations of 'manliness', and men can be crap at dealing with that. I've never wanted to hurt myself, but many do, and a British man kills himself every two hours. It's why I support www.mensmindsmatter.org #InternationalMensDay

If you're on Instagram, then please consider following instagram.com/picasso__film/. It's the production company in Prague for which I am now Creative Producer, and is helping make my series 'The Last Hunt for Nazi Gold'. There'll be plenty of behind-the-scenes stuff and all sorts!

Football players who do a stutter step in their penalty kicks are garbage humans.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

Realised that I’m now treating funny viral videos in the same way footballers celebrate goals —
1) initial joy,
2 sudden panic it might be AI/offside
3) lengthy investigation as joy saps away
4) conclusion, joy modulated through fatigue if proven legit/onside, but angry and gutted if AI/offside

My bank holiday has started and I have every intention of shutting myself away in dark and quiet room, avoiding people and wallowing in self-pity after wasting too much time on a fruitless pursuit.

It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. If video games make you happy, keep playing.
If they give you peace after a hard day, keep playing.
If they help you feel emotions that you need to feel, keep playing.
If you're having fun, KEEP PLAYING.
Life is short. Do what makes you happy. Always. 💫

I once handed a napkin to Keith Flint at the World Superbike races at Brands Hatch (c.1997).
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

Talk to at least 1 stranger a day
im not saying have full conversations, though you can and should sometimes.
walking past someone with a cool outfit? Tell them!
say good morning/afternoon/evening!
small interactions will evolve over time and talking to strangers will be easier!
