2022
With the continuing decline of the BBC and the forthcoming decline of Channel 4, my interest in TV is only going to continue its own downward trajectory.
… I’m a private person … I think if you do something and it turns out pretty good then you should go do something else wonderful, and not dwell on it too long… just figure out what’s next.
I believe that our interactions online should be worth something, should be more meaningful than metrics and anonymous validation.
I wish there was a separated “design mode” for Micro.blog. Switching between blogs because I want to do some non-design work becomes annoying relatively quickly.
Fretting about “the world” or “people” won’t help you to solve any problems. All it does is distract you from the work of making things better.
Stop fretting. Start working.
Super glad to be personally invested in a social network that doesn’t have a billionaire tech-bro on its board of directors.
I subscribed to Kermode & Mayo’s Take quicker than any other podcast.
One of my favourite things about the Micro.blog community is the proactive energy throughout.
It’s not just inspiration, though there is plenty, but also the impetus. The direct, tangible ingredients for doing something. And especially, something different.
I like the differences between the official Micro.blog apps. A browser is not a Mac is not an iPhone is not an Android is not an iPad.
“The government wants to snoop on you!”

One of my favourite things on the internet is when somebody makes the comment “That’s not real”.
As a great man once said: “You think that’s air you’re breathing now?”
