Have you ever thought you might be doing everything in your life wrong? My new song 4000 Weeks is inspired partly by the book, but mostly by @ifbookspod.bsky.social and the feeling that self-help books are making me insane. @michaelhobbes.bsky.social @notalawyer.bsky.social #selfhelp #4000weeks

Here are my daughter and her friend warming up after we ate at the weirdly dark and cold branch of Giraffe on the South Bank. Not going there again. But The Importance of Being Earnest at the National Theatre was delightful.

I appreciate The Guardian reading its articles out but the pronunciation is still skewy. It never learned 'Coronaveeirus' and now it's offering 'Timothay Chalamette'.

True Crime podcasts are just a terrible idea and I will never listen to one. If a podcast I like recommends one to me, I think much less of it.

Also, since I sent in work to a deadline yesterday and got the editor's out of office message, I am going to spend more time in 2025 in two separate states: rest and leisure.

Also (note to self), spend time not listening to anything so you can hear your own thoughts. Default mode network.
A reminder that it’s okay to do things by yourself. We’re all so connected that we don’t get that Vitamin U naturally anymore, so make sure you get your supplements! Take yourself out to dinner or to the movies or to a museum or the park or WHATEVER. You are not being weird, you’re restoring balance

Picked up this little book of writers’ writing rituals, & I think most of em are liars — “up at dawn, 6 hours at my desk, followed by calisthenics, liquor, & reading edifying works.” But David Lynch delivers the goods.
