I think I just watched a two hour perfume ad

Finished reading: Chaise Longue by Baxter Dury 📚
One indicator that I’m holiday is the rate I’m finishing books. This one is great - I’ve been a fan of Baxter’s music for a while and have of course heard his Dad’s. This is a wild …
I can’t even imagine how bad the hangover would be from this
Just finished: The Hobbit (Enhanced Edition) by J. R. R. Tolkien 📚
Nice intro to the world. I’m a sci-fi guy, so this is out of my wheelhouse but was really enjoyable nonetheless!

I’ve got a new (old) toy! Remarkable how well this works given it must be fifteen years old. Even more remarkable is how good it sounds. Now to play around with modding it..

Bad Trip Simulator 1968
How any of that was created with the methods available at the time blows my mind
Just about to get stuck into this. Busy day full of trepidation ahead of tomorrow’s triathlon. 😬
Very nearly got my first micro.blog theme ready to go. Few more things on the list and I can see what happens when I submit!
Movie Log 🍿: The Terminator, 1984 - ★★★★½
This is cinema everyone! The stop motion robot clumsily chasing Sarah is as good as it gets
Rip CDs Automatically When Inserted with Ubuntu 24 & ABCDE
I’ve recently started to buy CDs again. Buying and having physical music is just great. The benefit of the CD being that I can rip it, and still access my purchased music anywhere. Couple that with an unnecessary requirement to automate as much …
The sunset last night was bonkers
Drinking beer with my feet up. This is one of the good days
Set up Plex to store my CD collection and got Plexamp up and running. Awesome to have FLACs on the go like this. I’m buying CDs like mad at the moment.. probably going to need an old school CD rack soon 💿🎵
I just finished reading Solaris by Stanisław Lem the other day. Quite a weird one, but really enjoyable. Now to watch the movie!
Movie Log 🍿: Twisters, 2024 - ★★★★
Full of drama, super intense and a lot of fun. I spent literally every tornado scene searching for a cow. Cinema was packed. Is this the film of the summer?
I had a lovely little automation for posting instagram photos to my blog. Turns out the images don’t live for long on the instagram URL so I’ve got to engineer something more clever. Cheers Meta ✌️
Movie Log 🍿: Longlegs, 2024 - ★★★
No better than three. A shame because I was very excited for this one. Felt like it should’ve been an 18 with more gore. Definitely had the looks on its side, this was a delightfully shot movie
Movie Log 🍿: Triangle of Sadness, 2022 - ★★★★
Three very distinct acts make this really fun. Loved the whole movie. Was expecting cannibalism, I’ve gotta say
Movie Log 🍿: Kinds of Kindness, 2024 - ★★★½
Spent a lot of this movie baffled but really enjoyed the absurdity. The anthology style is excellent. Good film
Went to Scotland for the first time. Not sure how it took me so long 🏴
📍 Checked in at Inverary
Come to Scotland for a few days in the rain and sun 🏴
What I really love about Glastonbury is that every inch of the place has something to look at. I’m just about over the blues at this point, but normal life just isn’t the same.

A fairly easy watch for a tired Tuesday night
