I've just played through the opening scenes of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. I can't wait to play more. A great introduction to the game.

Lavender clouds begin to clear. A soft hello. I smile as the sun ascends, and its warmth draws near.

I'd be very surprised if they don't ban 1984 by George Orwell in the US at some point.

Trump is just like Putin. They can do things, but you can't. It's ok for them but not for anybody else. How anybody can follow such vile and self-serving people baffles me. #Trump #putin #fascists

Russia is the largest country in the world by far, but it only has a population of 143.8 million. It's so large that it has 11 time zones, but the Kremlin are obsessed with the idea of taking more territory. Putin recently joked about the size of the G7. How much land do they need? #Putin #Evil

I've just binge-watched 'Four Kings'. A great documentary about four British boxing legends: Frank Bruno, Lennox Lewis, Nigel Benn, and Chris Eubank. They provided us with many memorable nights. Great fighters and great personalities who put it all on the line. #boxing #boxingheads #fighting

Today is a good day. A little sign I found in Ubud, Bali. In a world full of doom and gloom, this is a little reminder to see the positives in everyday life. Life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we react.

'In all ages, whatever the form and name of the government, be it monarchy, republic, or democracy, an oligarchy lurks behind the façade.' - Ronald Syme, The Roman Revolution (1939).

I'd recommend reading 'The Deep State' by Ian Fitzgerald. A brilliant book.

I feel like we are living in Final Fantasy 7. Trump is President Shinra. He wants to suck the life out of the planet for money. Vance is Rufus, Musk is Hojo, and Kennedy is Heidegger. Where is AVALANCHE? #Trump #gaming #FF7 #Musk #Vance #gamingcommunity #gamer #antifascist #Ukraine

It is easy to know man's face, but it is difficult to know his thought.

Another image I captured during a visit to a temple in Chiang Mai. I want to say it was Wat Phra Singh temple, but I need to retrace my steps.

Poverty with dignity is better than wealth based on shame.

I took this picture many years ago during a visit to a temple in Chiang Mai, Thailand. It's been stuck in my head ever since.

Many people would sell their soul for fame and fortune.
