Dreamt of my dad last night.
Played one of his favorite songs, Moon River, over coffee.
‘Wider than a mile, I’m crossing you in style someday.’

I fluctuate between lattes and flat whites. Might attempt a mocha after a cold swim. I’ve got at least three spots where coffee’s loved and made beautifully. Walking to my trusted barista, music on, empty café, maybe a sunrise, it’s my favourite routine. Latte today ☕️

HIGH FIDELITY was released 25 years ago today. One of the most successful adaptations of a nick Hornby novel, and as popular with music lovers as movie fans, the behind-the-scenes tale has to be in the Top 5 making of stories…

Ruti is starting to explore the outdoors! Looking for recommendations on good GPS cat trackers. Anyone have experience with them? She lives in Scotland, so ideally something that works well in the UK.

I watched #Adolescence on #Netflix. It brought up many emotions: discomfort, despair, and deep emotion.
I highly recommend it; you end up wondering whether self-destruction comes from our social environment or something innate and unchangeable.
Stephen Graham is outstanding.

This gem that never gets old and that blessed shuffle put in my path today. Discovered it a few years ago, it’s not from my era, but I wish it was. Such a feel-good song! 🥹

1 in 3 women in the EU has suffered violence.
Parliament has adopted EU-wide rules to combat violence against women.
In the next two years, EU countries must criminalise:
🔸 Cyberflashing
🔸 Non-consensual sharing of intimate or manipulated material
🔸 Forced marriage
🔸 Female genital mutilation
