I still exist. Keep meaning to swing by more often. Most likely I'm here because of the current Twitter instability. Maybe I should spend more time browsing blogs. After all, I do lurk on tumblr.

Started working from home in March of 2020...but now I've been back in the office for a month. I do not feel particular safe there; I mask all day except when I'm eating or drinking, even though I have an office to myself. I'm pretty sure the bloody pandemic is not over, thank you very much, despite media and government-sponsored gaslighting, and I would like to reduce my risk of Long Covid as long as possible. Though I do miss karaoke something awful.

Haven't been blogging much. On my Wordpress blog I've mostly been talking about my chronological journey through my music collection, though I did also do a pass through my favourite Crusader Kings II/Europa Universalis IV game sequence. Twitter (and tumblr) I've mostly been browsing to find entertaining things to read to my wife while she cooks; most of my tweets have been about music, still my main obsession.

Watching a modicum of TV, but maybe I'll save that for later. Increase the changes I'll come back.

I’ve been wondering who might wander over here from the Musk mess. We’re a quiet little neighborhood, no dopamine whippets crunching underfoot like on the streets of Twitter, so the junkies tend to move on.
I did poke my head in and read a few posts a month or two ago, but didn't get around to posting anything. Having multiple blogs I never know what to post where and so I often post nothing anywhere.
Yeah I get that.
I may have elevated my humble lineage to become Emperor of Britain, but when I’m asked to send thousands of men off to die in the hinterlands, I’m like “Aw, man!”
I managed to start out as an Occitan count and become Emperor of Spain, though in hindsight it probably helps that it's easier to win and hold territory through a crusade in Spain than it is in the Levant.
I found I was using Twitter as a finely curated feed of news and commentary that was up my alley, and also as an outlet for griping about my law practice. I'll miss it, honestly. But even if the new owner decides to drop it, it won't ever be the same, I don't think.
