My local Aldi got on the Christmas train very early, this is from 2 September. I love Lebkuchen and gingerbread, but please, at least wait until after Halloween.

Feeling kind of pumped (heh) that my first CD is so non-cringe. Still a crackingly good album actually, can recommend! #Aerosmith
The cover from Aerosmith's album Pump, from 1989. Cover shows a large black truck that has a smaller black truck in its bed. Make of it what you will.

I just played Days Gone (the beautiful post-apocalyptic zombie game where you're a gruff biker in Oregon), hmm. As long as my camp doesn't get overrun I'd be happy to just gather plants, learn how to fix bikes, cook food or something like that and just keep my head down.
Screenshot from the game Days Gone, showing the player character on his motorcycle heading up a road into snow Oregon mountains at night. Beautiful starry sky and everything looks serene (no zombies in sight).

Having great fun with #DestinyTheGame and its last amazing update. Have watched all cutscenes from vaulted content and seasons (it all makes sense now!) and have started a brand new Warlock. Will play everything in order (except already did initial TFS to get prismatic..). Love this game still! ❤️
Destiny 2 game: fabulous Emperor Calus in all his opulent splendour, proclaiming how glorious he is. Love him.

Since it's #Pride 🏳️‍🌈 month I'd like to share this lovely photo I snapped in New York back in 2009. It was the 40th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, so the parade was extra emotional. I might have choked up a little. Cis ally til I croak. ♥️
Photo from the 2009 New York Pride Parade. Lots of colourful balloons, a person dressed in a flamboyant dress, and smiling NYPD officers cruising past on their bikes.

What a lovely way to look at things. Being content is a kind of wealth that all the money in the world can't beat. Reminds me of the great anecdote in The Psychology of Money book.
“At a party given by a billionaire on Shelter Island, Kurt Vonnegut informs his pal, Joseph Heller, that their host, a hedge fund manager, had made more money in a single day than Heller had earned from his wildly popular novel Catch-22 over its whole history. Heller responds, “Yes, but I have something he will never have … enough.” Enough. I was stunned by the simple eloquence of that word—stunned for two reasons: first, because I have been given so much in my own life and, second, because Joseph Heller couldn’t have been more accurate. For a critical element of our society, including many of the wealthiest and most powerful among us, there seems to be no limit today on what enough entails.”

― Morgan Housel, The Psychology of Money

Why do they keep making stock photos like this? No one eats chocolate like this except fucking psychopaths. A Snickers type bar - sure, it's eaten bite by bite. But chocolate with squares? Oh hell no. 😑 #chocolate #rant
Absurd stock photo of a woman just biting a piece of chocolate out of a chocolate bar. The chocolate is also oddly melted at the edges.

Am at Stage 3 so much. 😑
The three stages of career development: 
1. I can't wait until I'm important enough to be included in meetings. 
2: I feel so important being in these meetings! 
3: I will do anything legal and several illegal things to avoid these meetings.

Seriously, 1 portion of chocolate is 16g (2 squares)? Ffs.. 🙄 Would have been better if they had just written nutritional value for 1 square and dropped the whole portion shaming.
Nutritional information for a bar of chocolate, Cailler Pralinato (Switzerland). Lists 1 portion as being SIXTEEN grams. Jeez.

Started a cozy re-watch of White Collar. Love the vibe in that series and I need something lighthearted and upbeat in these dreadful times. Thanks to the not-so-subliminal messaging (they drink a lot of wine) I suddenly ended up ordering some wine online. 😄🍷 #WhiteCollar #Wine #NickCaffrey

Pottering about in Civilization VII and this little event, where you can choose to help people you encounter, always moves me and gets me a little misty-eyed. I will _always_ help them, don't care if my capital collapses and opponents invade or whatever. ❤️ #Civ7

Often when I play #NoMansSky (always with multiplayer off and all animals set to friendly mode, for maximum chill) my #Oura ring logs the time as a nap. 😄 I guess it is indeed relaxing. Aaah, mining da copper... 😎 Do buy the game, it's often on sale for a fiver on Steam. So worth it.
