I always found getting outrageously drunk on fine scotch and trolling the shit out of someone, IRL or online, works for me.

On the topic of doing something difficult and fun, I've been looking at fencing classes.  There is a fencing studio literally five minutes walk away, with 4 weekly sessions.  I'll admit my preferences in swordplay run more towards the ARMA "bash them in the face with your pommel, kick them in the balls and stab them while they're crying on the ground" method, but a more...refined approach could be interesting.

Today for shits and giggles I went on a tour of the Metro Waste Transfer Station.

It was pretty cool.

If you're going to carry a sword, it's prolly best to have the whole Assassin's Creed repertoire down

True.  I was also considering the full western martial art experience, as a few places in London actually do that sort of thing.  Lots of Fiore dei Liberi fanboys running around the place, it seems.

QuoteToday for shits and giggles I went on a tour of the Metro Waste Transfer Station.

Looks like my thing, totally. I am into urbex, but I refuse to trespass, which is a bummer.

Friday is the first day of non-consultancy and I've booked a visit to an exhibition on the history of sex in popular culture and a documentary about La Maison de la Radio in France. Cultural consumption alone would be a copt-out of course, but I take that as a sort of brain colonics, so to speak. Forcing something in as a form of purification. Not that I am into pseudo-therapies of any sort, of course.

Gosh, that's a horrible metaphor  :kingmeh:  :lol:

Anyway, I shall follow the advice of this thread: I will pick soon some medium-term difficult endeavour that I would normally nix for futile reasons.

This was fully sanctioned.

Although I have pretty much no compunction about trespassing as long as I think I won't get shot at. Which rules out most privately-owned property. Although it's kind of stunning how many doors "I'm a student researcher at the University, would you mind if I had a look around?" will open. Literally.

Let us know what you end up doing!

On a side note, wouldn't be of sudden solace and healing to be around people who talk? I miss the kind of conversation that has for purpose only itself, instead of some external intent. Oh well! We'll go out, explore, take stock and move accordingly.
You seem to be finding your way in the maelstrom... and/or showing a way... bravo

Ah shite, the brain can be so burdensome :( Good luck!

I was mumbling earlier over this strategy of yours. Picturing other people's flowers, it's pretty cool. A storybook of street flora ephemera, each with its own unknowable story and individuality. Uplifting.
