Currently in Southampton, after a superb night out with ex-colleagues from my previous company. I had a steak as big as my head and some lovely beers.

At a company Christmas do, in West Swindon. If you thought Swindon was depressing, West Swindon is 10x worse.
It’s not even my company!
Another one on Friday - with mates from my previous company.

His deals aren't worth the paper they're printed on but world leaders have little choice but to pursue them. Another example of how completely he has destroyed the network of obligation that holds everything together.

I want every single solitary Republican in every elected office in every corner of this country to be asked about Donald Trump’s post about Rob Reiner.
They like to cloak themselves in religion…
Then read it to them.
Don’t let them say they “didn’t see it.”
Let them “defend” it.

Bit of a quiet night in. My mate I was going to the pub with has fallen ill, and after a day of driving, I’ve agreed to be the designated taxi driver for some Christmas party attendees.
This was tonight’s solitary beer: Everything Works Again by Polly’s.

Harrison Ford on Trump.
![A photo of Harrison Ford sitting in an armchair and holding a microphone.
He says:
[Trump] doesn't have any policies, he has whims. It scares the shit out of me. The ignorance, the hubris, the lies, the perfidy. [Trump] knows better, but he's an instrument of the status quo and he's making money, hand over fist, while the world goes to hell in a handbasket. It's unbe*liev*able. I don't know of aa greater criminal in history.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ziklmmkdwdrr6yiydaoz24il/bafkreiednmmiroapja2efs7ch6rbc5hljfvtpinlkhegvuggc2lzbfe2cm@jpeg)

This Smoked Paprika Chicken was a bit lively. I probably shouldn’t have eaten the whole chillies.
Washed it down with a 6% IPA.

Classic Friday night in (the first in quite a few weeks). I’m cooking smoked paprika chicken, and drinking a large dinner and tonic whilst it’s in the oven.

Didn't get enough sleep (again) because I was woken an hour early by a loud thudding coming from God knows where.
This morning I'm working through some code, sipping strong coffee, and listening to Both Directions At Once - the long lost John Coltrane album - on vinyl, like some hipster. #jazz

Time to watch the new (and final) episode of #DownCemeteryRoad - show that confirms, even bedraggled, Ruth Wilson remains sexy AF.
A show that also doesn’t seem to have any GIFs on BlueSky.

I’ve finally caught up on the first two episodes of #TheWarBetweenTheLandAndTheSea. It’s a grower (not a show-er) alright.
And no, there aren’t any GIFs of the actual modern show, so enjoy an appropriate classic #DoctorWho GIF instead.

I barely survived work. I was in gross meetings for a project from 9am - 2pm. Mercifully none of the problems were my fault!
Managed to cancel the 3-hour afternoon workshop due to tech issues. Phew!
Had a micro-nap (40 mins) then played badminton and won almost all my 5 games!
