Something I’m taking into my next job:

If I share an asynchronous update with my team, no one is getting me to run a 15-30mn meeting going through the damn update 🙃

⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 Resident Evil

Bumped into my friend who had booked the exact same screening three seats away.

Both a lot funnier and a lot jump-scarier, body-horror galore, and quite a different take from the past movies and Saga. And yet it feels very faithful to the video games!

I’ll forever regret not being able to attend a Mac Miller concert.

Mac —as well as Prince— is an artist that left us before I got the chance to see them perform live.

If you can afford it, definitely go see your favorite artists. Human connection is all we got!

A person is holding a vinyl record cover featuring a photo of Mac Miller with text that reads NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert by Mac Miller and a parental advisory label. A hand is holding a translucent blue vinyl record with faint handwritten text on it, reflecting the surroundings including a glass door and a person’s face.

8 days to go til I finish this chapter of my professional career

I’d rather have a seat at the table than a comment in the section.

Well played @nalden

🤘 🎸 Back from this wonderful insanity — really glad I got to see you with a good friend too! IYKYK

Two men are smiling and posing for a selfie in front of a door with a framed poster above it. A colorful, cartoon-style poster for a documentary film celebrating 40 years of the punk rock band NOFX features caricatures of the band members around a graffiti-covered van and a pool.

Coffee and clarity. ☕️

Wednesday morning run after dropping my daughter off at school, followed by a coffee date with my wife at the local neighbourhood café by the canal.

With things being quite frustrating at work lately ahead of my departure in 2 weeks, this little Wednesday morning routine is exactly what I need for my own sanity before diving into the day.

A man wearing earphones is taking a selfie on a bridge near a river during a morning run, with Strava stats showing a distance of 6.73 km, time of 43 minutes 10 seconds, and a pace of 6:25 per km. A pedestrian bridge runs alongside a calm river with trees and buildings visible in the background under a clear sky. A calm river or canal flows through a cityscape with buildings on one side and a tree-lined walkway on the other, while a person walks along the water's edge. A man and a woman are sitting at an outdoor table near the water, with the woman eating a pastry and the man smiling at the camera. A partially eaten piece of chocolate cake and a cup of coffee rest on a wooden table with a blurred cyclist riding by a waterfront in the background.

Something I actually haven’t blogged about: a neighbor in the building next door was selling this vintage bike for a cool 50€. So I bought it, sent it down to the shop for some upgrades and maintenance, and now I’ve got a brand new Vintage bike. Very excited to ride it all over town for my solo trips & commutes!

As a huge Blink and Travis fan I have actually his memoir about a year ago, so the first half was essentially a visualizer from the book, but nonetheless, what a guy!

Stoked to have found tickets for the Paris Screening of NOFX’s documentary on Sept. 17!

A colorful, cartoon-style poster features caricatures of band members around a van and a pool, promoting the film 40 Years of Fuckin Up by NOFX.

Amazing day today with our friends/neighbors. Our daughters are born 6 months apart but will start school together next month, in the same class.

The day started with a children-friendly screening at the cinema (in the Kids Screening Room, co-designed with LEGO), a lovely picnic in the part, and — a guilty pleasure— the museum exhibition of the summer: Beyond The Streets, a street art retrospective at Villette !

A scene from an animated movie featuring a talking worm and a butterfly is being projected in a movie theater with a few people seated in the audience. A family is enjoying a picnic on a colorful blanket in a grassy park area with various items and a stroller nearby. A gallery space features various colorful artworks on the walls and people, including a woman pushing a stroller and a child walking alongside her, exploring the exhibits under the sign TAKI 183. A cozy, oversized cushioned seat with red and white stripes is set against a pink wall adorned with music event posters and a skateboard deck featuring a red and white design. A little girl in a blue dress holds hands with her reflection while standing in front of a mirrored wall filled with rows of colorful cans. A spacious art gallery features various contemporary artworks, including a colorful mural, whimsical cartoon-like characters on a display, and a black and white patterned installation that visitors are observing. Four pixelated alien figures are displayed on a wall, each created with contrasting colored squares on individual rectangular canvases.

The start to our August staycation holiday:

Taking our little one to the Science Museum
Visiting a farm outside of the city
Headed down to Sceaux to spend time in the royal park
And a lovely Chinese takeout discovery (been meaning to try Zhao’s for 7 years!)

My Paris Basketball is signing its second Prince: Frank Ntilikina (aka The French Prince)

We were missing a couple of (exciting) signings to wrap up the off-season, and this might just be it! #ParisPourParis
