Just put up this bathroom cabinet, and thinking of rebranding myself as a manliness influencer. Reading books is for cucks.

Browsing for dross to watch, and I hate to be the dead-metaphor police but who writes this shit? If you can afford Nicole Kidman to star, you can afford a better fifty-word puff than this. Hell, even I’d do you a fifty-word puff for £3k if you asked nicely.

My nine-year-old decided we had to cook fried chicken and crème brûlée. A lot of effort but it turned out pretty well.

Interesting piece. Quite loving the very low-key bracketing of John Steinbeck with Ken Follett too.
End of feed.
