Now

Doing

Writing the dissertation for my Master's degree. If you see me around the University of Essex, feel free to say hi!

Going

I tend to travel on my motorcycle at weekends. Now that summer's nearly over, I'm probably going to be using tin-top more often.

Using

I'm giving Omarchy a whirl. I inherited an Intel MacBook Air and it seems to work quite well on that hardware.

Reading

I like re-reading the Dune series. Dune is to the American literary canon is what The Lord of the Rings is to the English canon. If you enjoyed the latter you'll enjoy the former. I can always respect someone who can recite the Litany Against Fear.

I must not fear.

Fear is the mind-killer.

Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.

I will face my fear.

I will permit it to pass over me and through me.

And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.

Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
