I like things made by people who love their work
wod-feed turned off
I was a regular attendee of a CrossFit gym for three years, stopping only due to the time investment. I loved the people, I loved the exercise. When the lockdown kicked in I went back CrossFit style exercises a few days a week, going so far as to create a feed of the CrossFit workout of the day that I could subscribe to in my feed reader.
Today I turned that feed off. I still love the people at my gym and the exercise. But, jfc, who could support CrossFit HQ? Not me. I don’t want to point to them other than to say this:
Believe women. Systemic racism exists. Black lives matter. Humans are causing climate change.

Brilliant illustrations of Wellington cafes
I love these fantastical depictions of various coffee shops around Wellington.
Wellington has a fantastic coffee culture. I enjoy sitting in coffee shops, where I can draw and observe people passing by. These are great places to relax, meet friends, and connect with others. For me, this is where my stories begin.

May Tracks, 2020
I use an IFTTT applet that adds tracks that I’ve saved on Spotify to a monthly playlist. In May I tapped the heart icon 15 times.
I haven’t listened to this playlist yet. I can’t remember some of the tracks. The Wilco deep cut, and the Weyes Blood song? No idea.
Manowar, though. I’ve remember listening to the kings of metal a lot over the last couple weeks. To quote John Peel, they’re “a breath of foul air.”
For some reason WordPress can’t embed the playlist, but that doesn’t matter. Everyone, go listen to Manowar.
