No, Among Us doesn’t turn someone into an assassin

Finished watching #Foundation season 2 last night. 📺

After another slow build to set everything up it turned into a really solid season filled with interesting concepts and storylines.

Highly recommend for Sci-Fi fans

And now to figure out what to watch next over the holidays…

This unfortunately unfinished autobiography was a wonderful insight into an artist I respect and continue to learn more about with every passing year. Highly recommend for fans though!

Trump is a soft man obsessed with seeming tough; Le Pen is a tough woman forever trying to project a soft touch.

(“President Emmanuel Macron Has Plunged France into Chaos” | written by the always on-point Lauren Collins)

The headline claims that President Emmanuel Macron has thrown France into chaos, with lawmakers toppling the government for the first time since 1962, as reported in an article by Lauren Collins dated December 7, 2024.A bucking white horse throws off a rider, who is mid-air with their hat flying off against a blue sky backdrop.

Absolutely incredible game (and subsequent win) last night for my #ParisBasketball team away at Olympiacos Piraeus in the #Euroleague.

This marks the 10th win in a row, and improves the record to 11-3, sitting at the top of the standing in our rookie season in the Euroleague.

A question for my web browser nerds… Who’s abandoned Arc and made it back to Safari?

Thoughts? Pros & Cons?

Finally got to check out #DelhiBazaar in Paris 🤩

What a lovely day

My friend wrote a book, while battling brain cancer!

I met my friend @JamesMayes.bsky.social about a dozen years ago at a local chapter of TEDx in Brighton, where I used to reside during my university studies and the early stages of my career. We quickly connected due to our shared heavy social media usage and mutual attraction towards good food & drinks, good people, and a passion for technology. Since then, we’ve been friends, and I’m grateful to have him as both a friend and a mentor in my professional life.
