Signed up for Bluesky. Posted a few random things. Got bored. Forgot about it. Just like my experience with Twitter back in the day.

Gladiator II: a thoroughly contemporary successor to the original. By that, I mean that it's weaker, feels cheaper, and is definitely more stupid than the first movie.

A few weeks ago, I had the honour of doing a guest lecture on business storytelling for Masters students in Technology and Entrepreneurship at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.

Can't get a creative task finished? Start another! Terrible advice, I know. There are three @listentheband.bsky.social albums underway at the moment. Hopefully two are released next year.

"If you were them / snakes that climbed the ladder / wouldn't you do the same?"

This 2024 reimagining of the @listentheband.bsky.social song is our attempt to capture that "am I going crazy?" feeling you get when you find yourself dealing with terrible people.
