During a particularly quiet half hour at work today I deleted 1500 photos from iCloud that were multiple copies. I don't know if this is how Google are suggesting you need more storage, but wtf. Example attached.

This year I've quit twitter for Blue sky, Spotify for Qobuz and netflix for a different streaming service every month or two. Better in multiple dimensions across the board. Go me.

I played Copper Blue after the Sugar announcement this week and the tracks chosen by Spotify to follow were fairly predictable (The Posies, Sebadoh, Redd Kross, TFC etc) but also featured an inordinate/inappropriate amount of Ned's Atomic Dustbin. Some lovely basslines those boys had though.

I went down quite a pleasing musical hole last night after some random post on Facebook about a circa 2000 song. Quickspace Supersport, Novak, L'Augmentation, Woodbine. Quite the vibe.

I left Twitter a month ago and 3 months without Netflix has been just fine. Next up is dumping Spotify- is Tidal my best bet?

Ordered some house numbers because it's not obvious what number our house is. Hilariously, Amazon left the parcel on next door's mat.

I had to change one of my passwords at work today and after a few attempts that were denied because they didn't contain the right things I essentially put in a version of FFS and it was happy.

Less annoyed with the misuse of literally by people these days, and even listen out for special examples. Heard at work recently:
'I was literally dead.' (I was very ill.)
'I was literally beside myself.' (I was surprised.)
'I was literally melting.' (It was hot.)
'Literally it was a white Citroen.'
'I was literally dead.' (I was very ill.)
'I was literally beside myself.' (I was surprised.)
'I was literally melting.' (It was hot.)
'Literally it was a white Citroen.'
