First swim of the year, endlich

the Seljuks were smth

Love being where it all happened

Nagihan goes to the Aegean. Nagihan looks at the landscape and the olive trees. Nagihan is sad about not having kept up her Ancient Greek. Rinse and repeat.

En route to a national park where Turks feed wild boars on the beach and I so wish people who think pig is cryptonite to Muslims could see this

I wrote about Man in the High Castle for a Turkish speaking audience

Sub fusc day at school

Went early to an office to sign some papers and found myself absent mindedly eating a desert that was thrust my hand #Turkey

I did not know Sherlock did vampires :)

Omfg LEGEND

My parents are watching Three Amigos on Turkish TV

Guys, guys, guys, did you know that you can devote time to resting because it's good, healthy, and even pleasurable? You don't actually have to wait until you're so burnt out that your filament explodes and are physically incapable of moving?

My body needs to be in a body if water

what schism man? talk Nicaea or gtfo

they're calling it the new wordle score

I just received an email from an incredibly surnamed person but I can't say what because I'm sure they're already getting so much aggro/interest because of it

Writing 341 pages so you can get your protagonist to say this. What a racket

our Black Sea neighbour just gave us some anchovy bread. She's a sorceress

of course someone will have to send this to me so I can review it (I loved The Netanyahus. Cohen needs to be the court historian for Israel)

Shakespeare was against animal factories: We fat all creatures else to fat us, and we fat ourselves for maggots

3 mins into my R4 listening experience someone in power says 'it's not my decision to make'. Right, back to Russian radio

Either I have completed my transformation to amphibian or Istanbul is not as humid as previous summers #famouslastwords

my computer refuses to engage with the internet when it's less than 50% charged is just one of the ways in which i have bad internet karma... like we'll be sat at the same cafe with friends and only MY phone and MY computer will refuse to connect

I am fuming. Writing a whole Oxford novel to deny the genocide in Gaza and to prioritize 'Jewish feeling' #ThomasPeermohamedLambert

Why must everything look and sound the same even without the AI

We were warned about 'European temperatures' but it wasn't so bad

Fly the angel sleeves of your hostess dress at half mast, dim the standard lamps of all suburbia and please be seated at the telephone table to make the gossipiest call you can from a landline in memoriam💙

I should like to watch Sandra Bullock's The Net again. Was it the first film where I saw someone with a laptop on a beach?

OK #Backrooms is progressing VERY #Piranesi like

This is what 'throw like a girl' means.

it's 18:20 and in winter this would be a good time to call it a day but summer's a dick

ahahahah actually enjoying writing the article the Dean sort of 'required' me to write. sometimes our betters know better

if we only could direct the racists' energies to 'protect' the UK to protecting this beautiful bit of heaven

Morning, friends

fun fact: Chiwetel Ejiofor read the audiobook of Piranesi which almost literally takes place in #Backrooms

your boyfriend cannot stop thinking about

Buckle in, we're watching Backrooms

not liking the fact that modern means contemporary, a distinction I like to police

The video that had me crying re the earthquake was of an old (and sick) couple holding each other during the tremors, not able to really run- may God have mercy on our elderly

all productions that do not end with the face of Rosaline smiling in the end fail #RomeoandJuliet

the concept of 'seven sleepers' is so common in Anatolia I'd venture to say every city boasts of a location for 'seven sleepers'
