Just put this jacket on for the first time since getting back from EMF, you’ll never guess what was in the pocket.

Just once I’d like to realise I’m coming down with something before I’ve spent several days wondering why I feel grumpy, physically weak, and unable to think straight. It wouldn’t make those things any more fun but at least I’d get why rather than beating myself up.
Another law I would pass if someone put me in charge: Car alarms can only sound for a maximum of five minutes, after which they have to enter a cooldown period of at least 30 minutes before sounding again.
I don’t think I’ll ever get used to having mobile data deep in the London Underground tunnels, truly living in the future here.
Gotta be out the house about 7am tomorrow so of course I’m still up and haven’t gone to bed yet.
I have finally done the post-EMF clean and tidy of my flat, which has been long delayed by the fact I’ve barely been home since getting back. I can’t tell you all quite how nice it is not be living in a tiny flat full of half unpacked shit and several trip’s worth of laundry bags.
I should be in bed but instead have just discovered Simple Mode in the Uber app, pitched as for “seniors” but in fact it’s a toggle which turns off the swathes of advertising other Uber services and makes the home page a search box for where you want to go and a list of saved locations. It also starts near instantly rather than spending several seconds downloading ad manifests.
I’d got quite into work today and had considered just cracking on this evening. Instead I went for a 90 minute walk down to the river and then back across town, followed by dinner, which was an infinitely better use of Friday evening.
A service I would like to exist: a storage facility which I can send items to/request items from without having to do so myself. Surely I can’t be the only person with lots of hobbies they’re periodically into, a tiny flat, and no driving license.
I’ve once again been told in a podcast ad that Nando’s are “shaping the future with AI” and I just don’t get why anyone would think that’s a plausible line. They make chicken with varying degrees of spiciness, this is in no way shaping the future. It’s barely shaping the present.
