Going to use the rapture as an opportunity to ghost some people.

I've experienced this as well with e-sports players, streamers and content creators. Not most but some, and I don't begrudge them one bit for their success. But it does feel like something is out of whack.

Anyway, if you're raptured today I call dibs on your stuff.

So if you ever wanted to hear me blather on about myself for an hour now's your chance. youtube.com/watch?v=tgBw...

What it feels like when the cat is on the bed.

Breakfast! Leftover chicken, cream cheese, cheddar, eggs, baked and topped with homemade green habanero salsa. 🍽️🍳

The weirdest thing about Kimmel is he's a mid, slightly lib comedian with no history of taking a strong stance on anything. But now he's a flashpoint who can sink corporate leaders based on how he plays his cards. This is gonna be interesting.

Thinking about how just six months ago JD Vance had the nerve to come to Europe and lecture us about free speech.

Job title change today to Character Art Director. In some ways it's recognition of what I've already been doing but with some changes to my responsibilities and some new expectations. It will be a lot of work but I'm grateful for the opportunity.

I like artists, comedians and musicians who punch in all directions. They frustrate the Left but they terrify the Right. What they do only works if you give them a lot of rope. Partisan artists can never be as effective - too easy to dismiss. The unaffiliated artist is always deemed more dangerous.

I promised more Scandinavian artists. Theodor Kittelsen, from Norway.

There's a moment in Dr. Zhivago when the character of Lara Antipova confesses to Zhivago that she shot Viktor Komarovsky, a womaniser, grifter and opportunist who played both sides of the revolution for his own advantage. Upon hearing this Zhivago says simply, "Good man to shoot at."

At first I assumed this was bullshit. Nope it really happened.

Beware of people determined to fix things that are working. Some people value their fingerprints on the vase more than the vase.

I promised more Scandinavian artists. Ingebjørg Støvya, from Norway.

Trying out Malmö's newest French restaurant, la Fonderie. Arctic char with almonds in a crawfish butter sauce with two kinds of caviar, over a bed of chanterelle mushrooms and chard. Crab salad with frisée, Piment d´Esplette and brioche. Lemon tart. 🍽️

I have a new hero.

Go Eagley

Autumn's around the corner. Time to make some hot and sour soup. I threw some pork and shrimp dumplings in to make it a meal.

Gifting @hayao.lol a Kate Bush pic I've never seen before.

This is really fucking rare here this time of year but I'll take it.

Which one should we try first?

I feel like part of my job is to allow some room for crazy. We make a lot of content based on popular demand or requests from departments or for engagement or sales. Sometimes a bonkers idea emerges but you think it's cool so you make it and put it out there...

If Andor was the established science fiction franchise tackling fascism head on, Alien: Earth might be the equivalent but for capitalism.

I promised more Scandinavian artists. Esben Hanefelt Kristensen from Denmark.

I'm guessing statues are next.

Sunset with cat.

*me listening to any real K-pop* "Nah I prefer that cartoon group."

I promised more Scandinavian artists. Bruno Liljefors, from Sweden.

So happy Peacemaker is back. I need something this shitheaded in my life.

Three episodes in and Alien: Earth might be the grimmest entry in the franchise.

That he can say this and the press won't push back. The Democrats won't do shit. Americans will not take to the streets, not in any sustained and meaningful way. I see Gavin Newsom tweets celebrated as resistance. As a non-American from the outside it looks like it's pretty much over.

Maybe it's just me but maybe the leader of the world's biggest economy should know how percentages work. Amazingly this isn't the most terrifying thing he's said today.

I remember when "Woke" meant aware about social and racial justice issues. I also remember how a few years ago it was co-opted to describe any attempts to be more inclusive to women, POC and LGBT folks. I'm not clear how a corporate logo change is either of those things.

A Mayan soup I've been meaning to make for a while. White beans, pork shoulder, longaniza sausage (homemade), onion, tomato, habanero and recado colorado (homemade). Topped with chopped cilantro, chopped egg and pickled red onion. Really happy with this. 🍽️

Apologies to folks who were hoping to connect, but I will not be at Gamescom.

Breakfast! Longaniza sausages (made from scratch), eggs fried in the fat the sausages left behind and molletes (beans and cheese on toast). 🍽️🍳

I promised more Scandinavian artists. Nick Alm from Sweden.

Lust For Life is blasting in this restaurant. How long has it been since Trainspotting came out? Damn. I've seen many great movies since then but none better.

Marvin. This place is amazing. One harissa, one al pastor. I pre-ordered but Dawna isn't feeling well, so two sandwiches for me.

I feel bad complaining about 30 degrees here when much of Europe is sweltering in the 40s but it's uncomfortable here. Humid, no wind, town isn't built for this and neither are the swedes. No wind in Malmö is weird.

If something isn't for you, saying nothing is always an option.

I've promised more Scandinavian artists. Linnea Strid from Sweden. Extreme closeups, usually women, often featuring water.

As someone who's not Christian, Muslim or Jewish, you folks are fucking exhausting.

Second street food meal of the festival. Flæskestegsburgare from Nico's. Layers of pork, cracklings, pickled cucumber and pickled onions. Lives up to the legend.

Malmöfest is happening, which means street food. Went with Kolbulle, a very traditional Swedish dish of pancake batter mixed with pork belly, fried over a coal fire and topped with lingons. So good.

Asino, my favourite Italian restaurant in Malmö. Radiatori with chanterelles, gruyère, tarragon and parmesan.

I've promised more Scandinavian artists. Akseli Gallen-Kallela from Finland.

Manosphere should just be replaced with this:
