Manic pixie dream bloke. New in these parts. Old everywhere else.
Chris, buddy, your mate Laura generated most of those headlines and if you're looking for ideas about what your job should involve, I've got half a dozen ideas without even trying.

I’m sure it was at the top of their reasons-to-cruel list.

Excellent reminder, past self. Super clear, plenty of context, obvious call to action.

Do I have tickets for the Scottish play? Do they go on sale today? Should I beware blasted heaths? No clue.

Old school. Apart from the sprinkling of herbs and spices - Turkish place, I think.

This being on holiday thing is draining. Here’s a cool demon, though.

Raindrops keep falling on my Greggs,
But that doesn’t mean my eyes will soon be turning red…

Cancelled Disney+. It’s a weak gesture as I’m in the UK, have already paid up to November, and as a glance at my account will show them, only ever subscribe for a few months, usually at a discount. But I found myself out of strong gestures.

Police spokesperson: "We're all trying to find the police force who did this."

It is Thursday, and like power-cut babies being born nine months after a storm, the drunken online purchases of the weekend emerge screaming through the letterbox.

Cruel famous author @premeemohamed.com dominates local bookshop shelves and pushes unknowns Reeves and Miéville to side. “Three books?” shoppers ask. “How can anyone read, much less write, three books?”

Wild ride, internet. Wild ride.

Roses and hibiscus took advantage of my recent absence to do a flowering. Roses are… Blue Moon, I think, but don’t look blue to me either. Hibiscus, which I declared dead after winter in a too small pot, is Woodbridge. It’s Harabo and Marina siblings are in larger pots now and gearing up.

West Highland Way completed. 96 miles, five days, one ruined jacket (my fault, got angry with stuck zip while under midge attack). Toenail sacrifices undetermined but will update when I take my socks off.

Loch Tulla in the sun. Starting day 4/5. Long one but feeling up for it. Band of rain about lunchtime may spoil my fun.

Falls of Falloch. In Tyndrum now waiting on my lunch. Pressing on to Bridge of Orchy after, although I have to admit it might be a bit of a struggle.

Inversnaid hotel lunch break

Made it to Balmaha. Another hour to campsite, to finish longest day on the schedule at 36km. So far so good. Hoping tent is still waterproof during rain tonight… weather looks good after that though, making knees the new weakest link. Or joint.

My brower's currently giving me lots of clickbait news when I open a new tab. I know I can fix this, but I kind of have a morbid fascination with the headlines. I mean, this one. "Civilian"? Was the bull only meant to be going after military targets or something?

Fairly good example of an LLM clearly not knowing what words actually mean. Inversnaid is not actually halfway between Milngavie and Inversnaid. It’s very much at the Inversnaid end.

I'm less keen on her more recent stuff, but her Unspeakable Things was, for my white cis het 38-at-the-time money, an eye-opening and enjoyable read. Still remember this line, which I'll screenshot due to character limits. Her article from the crypto-yacht thing was also great.
