Brent Faiyaz's Icon is one of the BEST albums that I've listened to in a while

Spent early afternoon looking at variant covers of something is killing the children on eBay, so many that I want to buy

some of you are looksmaxxing when you need to be booksmaxxing

Absolute Batman continues to amaze with each issue, I've re-read issue 16 so many times, and I'll do the same with number 17. What a perfect introduction to Poison-Ivy and the ending? Incredible, also looking forward to seeing Robin soon!

Listening to David Bowie and floating, I wish I was more open to other styles of music when I was younger

That’s the best way to do it, I really don’t want to depend on streaming platforms anymore hence why I like using mp3 players. Apologies I meant DAP player, this is the one I have amzn.eu/d/03daQjXK

Been downloading a bunch of my favourite albums in Flac for my DAC player, trying to get away from Spotify

Been waiting for Ultimates 17 ever since I saw the cover art

One of my favourite things about when it rains is that my Mum makes the most incredible Daal for lunch, it tastes even better with achaar and mooli

I wanted terror, I got a space dragon. Alien Earth finale kinda defanged the Xenomorph for me. They aren’t scary anymore thanks I guess?

Watched Weapons last night, I actually started it a few days ago but it was 3am and I wasn’t ready for the first jump scare (I had just finished watching episode 5 of Alien Earth) turned it off and said to myself ‘nope, I’m not doing this right now’

11 years ago the Destiny servers went live for the first time, I’ve had so much fun playing that game over the years. In fact, my cover art is Destiny related, which probably tells you how much it means to me. It’s given me memories, friendships, and countless hours of adventure. Eyes up, Guardian

My list of movies to watch is almost as big as my games to play later list

I watched Alien Earth last night, I already have an unhealthy fear of the Xenomorph thanks to my dad making me record Aliens for him when I was really young. Not a good idea to press play on the second episode at 4am, this new Xeno is extremely scary

Every season of The Bear there is always one conversation that hits so close to home that I have to hit pause and reflect

Days like today are my favourite…cool, overcast, and on the edge of rain. It’s the kind of weather that makes you slow down, brew a good cup of tea, and get lost in a book. Feels like the world gives you permission to just be still for a while

Mission Impossible was great, I really hope we get some more movies in the franchise

Pedro Pascal and Gabriel Luna are such great casting in #TLOU

Bear in mind my Dad passed in 1996 nearly 30 years later and the grief is still there. I’ve done my best to think of it not as something to “get over,” but something I’ve learned to carry. His absence has shaped so much of who I am, and yet his presence still lives on in the the values he passed on

What I hate about grief is that it can hit you out of nowhere, I was talking to a friend and mentioned my Dad and immediately felt a lump in my throat

Predator Badlands looks amazing as does Alien:Earth although the Xenomorphs still to this day give me the heebie jeebies

Still haven’t watched Andor, hoping to start at some point this week so I can enjoy season 2 with my friends

Inspiration can strike from anywhere, and sometimes following a trend can lead to something truly original. It’s all part of the same creative ecosystem, and there’s room for all of us to express ourselves in our own way

This is by no means having a dig at people that do follow trends or are even discovering those genres for the first time
everyone’s musical journey is different, and there’s beauty in exploring new sounds

The best part? There’s always someone out there who needs exactly what you have to offer, just the way you offer it

Trends come and go, but authenticity has a lasting impact. When you play music that reflects your own taste, emotions, and experiences, it resonates in a deeper way even if it doesn’t fit into what’s currently popular

I wonder all the time if I made the mistake of not following musical trends, whether it's Amapiano or even edits I feel a little bit like I've been left behind. However, doing what you want and how you want is such a wonderful feeling because you’re creating from a place that’s true to yourself

Happier times

Absolute Super-Man continues to be amazing, I don’t think another comic book has made me this sad this year
