Just come back from seeing Pressure. It’s excellent. I loved it. But Highlander is one of my favourite films so you should also consider that when listening to my opinion on films (clearly excellent obvs)

Why do all cars look shit now? Why did car designers just sort give up?

This speed reading method triples your pace, from 300 words per minute to 900, by cutting subvocalization and reading in word groups instead of one at a time.

An artist sculpted the exact chaotic instant a Coke and Mentos explosion happens, frozen in clay so precisely it barely looks real.

I been to Shambala festival for the last four days. No phone reception. No bullshit reality. Just hedonism and conversation. And dancing. Loads of dancing. Highly recommend.

‘That work does not always leave behind a neat, visible artifact. There is no polished mockup of the time spent listening to sales calls, comparing competitor claims, talking to customers, sorting through conflicting internal opinions’ If you work in adland, this article is for you. It’s bang on…

Nobody sees the 5am runs. Nobody sees me choosing a salad over fries. Nobody sees me doing yoga in a peaceful sunlit room. Because I don't do any of that shit…. 💪🏼😉

I see the UK is as fucking annoying as ever. We need some Finnish pragmatism and stoicism around here.

I’ve never been to Cannes. My work has. But I was never important enough to get flown over to hold the metal. But this piece is a brilliant take on what’s wrong with adland, its favourite event, and how to make it better.

Australia. Where even the trees try to kill you. There’s at least 5% of me that worries about the safety of all the wonderful people who live there. It’s basically the real life equivalent of Love and Monsters.

Temu Tony Stark is a trillionaire. The 4Chan cos-play Nazi is a trillionaire. A trillionaire - the richest man the world has ever seen - who oversaw teenagers gutting USAID to such a significant degree it directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He’s an absolute cunt.

There’s a lot of “oh, and remember, next Friday is Hawaiian Shirt Day!” happening at the moment. Never a good sign.
