Louis F @lfeat.bsky.social · 09/10/2026I was in the 3pm slot, shuffled slowly in a dark, crowded room for 1.5 hours and was then hurried along the tapestry itself. I mean, I loved the tapestry, it was a real privilege to see it, but the experience overall was poor 120

Louis F @lfeat.bsky.social · 15/07/2026I've seen several Jersey Tiger moths in and around Kingston, South West London, this summer, like this one resting on my door frame. And I'm pretty sure there's a Jersey Tiger caterpillar eating the leaves off one of my aubergines in the greenhouse. They used to be very rare in England 010

Louis F @lfeat.bsky.social · 20/06/2026I recently started getting my sense of smell back through smell training. The scents I chose were lavender, honeysuckle, mint, rosemary and sweet pea. 110
Louis F @lfeat.bsky.social · 17/06/2026Love the dunes du pilat. One of my cousins showed me how to kangaroo hop down the back of them many many years ago. One of those holidays you never forget 000
Louis F @lfeat.bsky.social · 24/05/2026My dad used to play this all the time. He was a very gifted musician whose band, in the late sixties, supported the Kinks and Pink Floyd, but who decided to pursue a career as a theoretical physicist instead. Wherever I hear it, I well up. Sometimes even when I just think about it. 120

Louis F @lfeat.bsky.social · 14/04/2026All I see three days is style instead of art. Show me some art! I don't care for Instagram pretty. Show me the dog violets in the pavement, show me the funny graffiti. Life is more than style. 000
Louis F @lfeat.bsky.social · 08/04/2026"If you cross the river, a great empire will be destroyed" - The Oracle of Delphi to Croesus, King of Lydia, after he enquired about the outcome of his planned war on Persia. Croesus took this to be a good prophecy and went ahead with his war. She was right. The great empire that fell was Lydia. 000

Louis F @lfeat.bsky.social · 12/03/2026LinkedIn is such a dry old place. This is a top-notch technical joke and it sank without a trace. What's that? No, it really is funny. No, it is. 000
Louis F @lfeat.bsky.social · 07/03/2026How has it taken me this long to realise that every action film ever made is basically just a remake of The Guns Of Navarone? 010

Louis F @lfeat.bsky.social · 08/11/2025I think the problem is that when people think of themselves as 'normal', they are constantly looking for justifications for the belief that other people are 'not normal'. Epistemological permissions, if you like. 000

Louis F @lfeat.bsky.social · 25/09/2025I've got to admit it's quite funny, in a bleak sort of way, watching Marco Rubio try and come up with a coherent foreign policy in the prevailing environment. I almost feel sorry for him. Almost. 000

Louis F @lfeat.bsky.social · 31/08/2025I've been thinking about this a lot. Given the alternative possible framings of much of what's going on, I have to come to the conclusion that certain journos and editors, even at the BBC, Sky, etc, actively want either chaos or a more racist country. 000
