1. I love the sound of sumo in the morning

   Having the sounds of the sumo tournament livestream in the background as I make breakfast and do morning chores is becoming a regular occurrence in our family home.

2. I watched the Wilding film, you should too

   I finally found an opportunity to watch the Wilding film and learn more about the Knepp Estate I visited a few weeks ago. Go see it and fill your heart with hope!

   

3. Working at Studio 52

   A beautiful day for working in sunny Studio 52. Fun, sun, good people and the best dog.

   

4. Voted “The power of Christ compels you!”

   Voted. Now nervously awaiting the results.

   

5. What people say and do: a visual metaphor

   Oh hi, don’t mind me, I’m just going to park this big red bus here as a visual metaphor to remind us that, when usability testing, to **focus on what people do** *rather than what they say*.

   

6. Jason Hickel: It's either degrowth for the rich or climate disaster

   This podcast with Jason Hickel really helped to build an understanding of degrowth and how it differs from austerity and green growth. Lots of other nuggets of information about social indicators and GDP and how equality is a core principle of degrowth. Inspiring stuff!

7. LinkedIn’s ‘Christopher Nolan’ timeline

   I’ve come to the conclusion that LinkedIn hired Christopher Nolan to design their timeline feed because it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

8. Fermentation as Metaphor – An Interview with Sandor Katz

   Fascinating conversation about the fermentation process, its role in history and our current lifestyle, and as a metaphor for our investment in the future of the planet.

9. Sideways podcast discovery

   After a bit of a hiatus I’ve got back into listening to podcasts. I’m using an old iPhone 4s as a dedicated device for audio brain food which offers me zero notification distraction. I’m also using @adactio’s https://huffduffer.com/ which allows me to subscribe to my chosen feed of podcasts via RSS. What I like most about Huffduffer is that I discover content from other users where I wouldn’t necessarily be looking. It’s a constant delight!

10. You're Dead to Me – The History of Timekeeping

    Time is funny. A very hilarious and fascinating history of time and timekeeping. Well worth your time.
