Well, the UK had a massive heatwave and the usual suspects made a big deal about how people were making a big deal out of it and about a thousand people died. So mainly what I’ve been Liking this months was the few moments when I could actually move, think or act. Other stuff I’ve Liked, in no ... Read more »

Things I Liked – June 2022
Fuuuuuck it’s fucking Julyyyy. Here are some things I liked in the month that comes before July.

Like every so often I’ll be listening to a YouTube video and it will be ... Read more »
