i have precisely one thing to do today: go home

and that involves checking out of my hotel (at King's Cross), walking to Euston, and boarding a train that departs at 1030

it is therefore entirely unclear why i woke up at 0658

@otfrom @nevali it is also literally meters from King's Cross to Proxima Centauri, though. It's how we measure distance

I mentioned to our D&D party last night... It took me over 15 years to realise that the troll Ashphalt from Soul Music is called Ashphalt because HE'S A ROADIE.

about the Great Male Renunciation

“The Great Male Renunciation is the historical phenomenon at the end of the 18th century in which Western men stopped using brilliant or refined forms in their dress, which were left to women's clothing. Coined by psychoanalyst John Flügel in 1930, it is considered a major turning point in the history of clothing in which the men relinquished their claim to adornment and beauty.”

A large pillow just dropped onto the railing of my balcony and then continued down to the street.

Now, this being Berlin Neukölln and all I wouldn’t worry too much about this kind of thing … but my flat is the one with the highest balcony on this side of the building.
