Current mood
Weltschmerz or world-weary

Had to change trains yesterday evening due to some issue with the signalling system, BUT for 5 mins at Worthing we all saw the best sunset ever, people chatting, laughing and taking photos

Ok, I’ll wait for your report-back at a later date, great painting by the way
How does it wear? I tried Black 2.0 (the Stuart Semple one), it was lovely and dense but was very sensitive to any marks and accidental touches when it was dry.
Someone once told me they’d read Paradise Lost. But it turned out they had read a summary not the text. They’d managed to cancel their own potential joy at discovering beautiful new phrases and devastations literary images.
But they’d saved themselves a bit of time so that’s nice
Agree, that Eliasson sun is still one of the best things I’ve seen in a gallery. Everyone just sat on the floor and relaxed, beautiful.
Maybe because it reminds you of a real sunset that lives in your memory

Headline reads ‘how to be more flexible and yet be more resilient’ small text reads ‘so we can keep on bullying you’ Smaller character is saying ‘are you sweating or crying?, hey have you done our online training?’
