Twin Peaks devotee, living between two worlds: UK/EU, Croatian/English, tech/humanities. My life's a bit like a complex tax code, yet it's simple at the same time. I suppose you could call me Schrödinger's Igor. 😂

Unpopular opinion: A Euro-Canadian Union actually makes perfect sense. We already agree on most things—and surely we can survive minor differences like “washroom” vs. “loo,” or “colorize” vs. “colourise.” After all, Mark Carney’s "utilisation" already sent a pretty positive signal, didn’t it?

Wow, almost everything seems to be US-centric. It’s surprising how people seem to have forgotten that life mainly happens in their local village or neighborhood, rather than somewhere far away.

Oh no! The Martha P. Nochimson Twin Peaks interview on The Red Room Podcast seems to be gone from Pocket Casts.
Does anyone know if it’s archived anywhere?

Gemini in Google Sheets doesn’t speak Croatian.
It barely speaks British English.

Still manually correcting “prioritize” → “prioritise” like it’s 1999.
Global AI, local problems.

Mad Men is leaving Netflix UK. I’m mid-rewatch and refuse to pay £70 for digital rights I don’t even own. Where is everyone migrating to? Help! Where can I find it next?

Finished Middlemarch. Now watching the BBC adaptation.
An ideal novel for one Bluesky post, innit? 😉
Honestly, I think the book read me more than I read it.
Fascinating (and slightly hilarious) how England hasn’t changed that much underneath.

Slanders, sir; for the satirical rogue says here that old men have grey beards, that their faces are wrinkled, their eyes purging thick amber and plum-tree gum, and that they have a plentiful lack of wit, together with most weak hams;

Oh Fred Vincy... 🎩🐎
Just reached Chapter 24 and Fred’s £80 horse venture has gone spectacularly wrong. Loving how #Middlemarch refuses to let anyone coast by. So layered, so precise.

Curious to hear: What quiet details should I be watching for as the story deepens?

Peakies — absolute must-listen. David Duchovny hosts Kyle MacLachlan and they go deep into Lynch, Dune, Twin Peaks, Cooper, the 2017 revival, friendship, craft, everything. Beautiful, warm, funny chat. #TwinPeaks #DavidLynch #KyleMacLachlan #DavidDuchovny

This is what happens when you delete a slot machine dressed up as a dating app. My screen time dropped to below half an hour per day. Yay!

It's almost as if the media and right wing parties are manufacturing consent. The most important issue to people will always be material conditions.

Absolutely stunning bootleg! 🎸 If you're looking for proof of Led Zeppelin's acoustic magic, check out this pristine 1971 performance of 'That's the Way'.

Just installed the new Atlas browser by OpenAI on my Mac — imported all my bookmarks from Chrome, and it already feels like a new way of browsing: lighter, cleaner, and more intentional. Check out the demo here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UWK...

Let’s be honest — dating apps aren’t broken; they’re doing exactly what they were built for: endless swiping, fleeting hookups, growing subscriptions. Tech bros won’t fix this — we’ll have to.
Or shall we keep letting the slot machine bring us happiness? 😉

My twin peaks newsfeed is jampacked with anti-trumpism and anti-republicanism. So strange what love does.

One of my favourite movies. Looking forward to seeing it in 4k!

🧵 (1/5) @josephinequinn.bsky.social Really enjoyed your interview for Novara Media, which I just finished a few minutes ago 👉 www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUDm...

I’ve already added How the World Made the West to my reading list, and a few points especially resonated:
