The other funny thing about this exam was that one of the questions was about the literary bookshop doing potential partnerships with social media book based microinfluencers #examwaswrittenforme

In a fun twist of fate my final accountancy exam is one where we write a report for a business in 4 hours but are given advanced information on the business and its industry. And this sittings' business is a bookshop, with a special focus on fiction in translation.

reading anna kerenina for the first time and at the risk of making a ridiculously facile observation it's crazy the extent to which a nineteenth century russian novel is basically just riffing on all the same bullshit we're talking about in 2026

(I'm 3 years in so it's really unlikely they fire me for a fail at this point but I just wanted to put it here for dramatic effect)

I'm pretty stoked to be relatively happy with my physique after just 9 months of lifting and knowing I've got a few years to still grow effectively

Finished Korra season 1 and I'm loving it so far. I love the whole world, the animation is beautiful and that score... omg, it's so great.

All my writing ideas are about middle aged men or pensioners being professionally or emotionally embarrassed which is a troubling insight into my mind.

When you post a book pic and it gets zero likes that's how you know it's gonna be one of the best books you've ever read
