A good cause!
Hi friends, I’m doing 100 wild swims between Sept ‘24 and Sept ‘25 (2 per week, every week ish). Completed swim #22 at the weekend.
Ice on the beach, burn in the limbs; raising money for Tiny Changes.

Touching to have Spotify celebrate the 1-year anniversary of my layoff by demonstrating that they could not, in fact, still do Wrapped just as well without me.

Hard to describe as a journalist how grateful I am to have a text-based app that does not suppress hyperlinks. I don’t know if people realize exactly how hostile the corporate internet has gotten toward news.
