Been a while since we had a slowchat!
The world is going to shit, whether it's local, national or global politics, economic collapse is just around the corner, drought is already here, climate in general isn't even on the back burner anymore, ww3 has pretty much started, nuclear apocalypse is closest it has been in my lifetime, etc etc
So what do you do to escape?
I just found out King Gizzard put out live shows from their past US tour. I've been listening to high energy psychedelic trash metal and dumb australian jokes all week – https://youtu.be/vuFtzMpOewQ?si=pMVnfLWT0tq2IZre

I simply stopped following media. I only care about the ukraine war at the moment because Slava ukraina.
Escape is in my garden, video games & books.
And now i am patiently awaiting the trailer of the new helldivers 2 warbond and major update thats coming next week. ETA 3 hours. I cannot wait.
Some of you may have read that I’ve dislocated my shoulder the other day, in a bike accident. It doesn’t hurt, no – it hurted the day of the accident, and the day of the surgery to correct it, but otherwise? No, it doesn’t hurt. It feels sore, for sure, but that’s about it.
No, what really hurts, is that of course that had to happen in April, just in the middle of my favorite season to go outside. With the nicest weather – not yet ultra warm – and with flowers everywhere. I want to go outside again.
It was very funny that the autism center following me offered me some sort of phone hotline of all things. No, I don’t miss people – I’m actually more in touch than usual, given I’m essentially forced to use my computer. Not too bored either ; my luck at least was to land onto Guild Wars’ anniversary, and that that game is absolutely playable one-handed.
When I’ll be allowed to cycle again, one thing is sure – I won’t be found on that forsaken cycle path ever again. You’ll find me in the middle of the N50 whenever I go to Mons. Want me to get out of the way? Offer me a path that’s not more dangerous than just being on the road. Or, you know, just another road, that’d work too. Screw your painted sidewalks and whatever D7-9-10 signs. If it was a proper cycle path, it’d be identifiable by the dashed lines, and I wouldn’t need to be off of it most of the time due to an obstacle, or my inability to find a way to climb back onto it.
45 minutes of fitness after breakfast. One hour mindfulness in the evening. About half an hour strolls in the park. After the stroll, sitting on a bench in the park. I repeat this every day, it helps.
The nuclear apocalypse will always be the closest it has ever been, time indeeed does move forward.
Girlfriend and I moved in together in a new place last weekend. So far it’s great!. Some minor inconveniences with the house we bought, but we are addressing step by step, but it feels good. It’s great waking up next to her every morning and seeing each other every day.
Saturday I’ll be going to Spa-Franchorchamps to watch the WEC and the day after my SO and I treated our self to a sauna day.
As for escaping, eh, I just don’t really watch too much news and focus on the good things happening around me. Enjoying some games (Doom: The dark ages coming out soon, Clair Obscur, Oblivion remaster, …), having fun doing virtual races and training for a “big event” in October (virtual 10h endurance race) together with my brother and doing sports. I managed to reach my goal for this year in distance (10km run) and now I want to lower my time on the 5km runs to 30-35 minutes
One way to cope is to drink a lot of beer out of bottles and save the bottlecaps
Tried the King Gizzard several times, yet doesn’t click with me. Shame.

The last content patch is out, so I’m Balduring the Gate yet again.
The little one beat my ass in Fifa on his PS so now I bought it on PC so I can practice. And aside, I seem to be pulled into gardening and am impatiently waiting for my strawberries to grow.
They are also on spotify! Check bootleg gizzard (also for older stuff).
