Hmm.. board game.. you mean social one or more strategic? I guess strategic games can get boring, if not everyone is not 100% into it. So What do you meme or Cards against humanity are good, but they get boring after the first time.
But what about you? Into board games, which ones?
Well, spicy enough, not Korean level tho. So more than most.
What is your favourite biscuit?
Depends on the mood.. but I'm up for salty caramel anytime, anywhere.
What is your favourite flower, or plant if you prefer?
I have never played a musical instrument. Did sing in a choir for a lil bit.
Can you recommend any good podcasts? Always looking to add to my roster.
The usual, Last of Us and White Lotus and Black Mirror. Then I started watching Station Eleven. I really like dystopian series. These aren't on telly tho, just streaming on the web.
Where do you get your news?
Thanks for the recommendations. I have heard of the Day of the triffids, will check it out at some point. I really like old school sci-fi, and the topics they explore. The Illustrated Man is a really good one.
I saw Mickey 17. It was a fun film, similar in essence to the directors other films.
Not really a Disney kid, I did have Pocahontas picture book even though I hadn't seen the film. So that.
But how about series, which ones do you recommend? Maybe you know some more obscure ones to fill the time?
I don't read much, but I'm open to recommendations.
I have to agree with you on the weather, rainy cool days are perfect! Perfect for taking a walk too, the air is fresh, everything smells different, better. And the colours are more vibrant. It is also so quiet, apart form the rain.
Malcom in the middle, it is just so good.
If we are on to the topic of films, which recent films have you seen and what did you like and dislike about them?
Not an easy question at all! My answer would be a book or two. Been eyeing an architecture book, but for this amount could get a heftier one. Maybe about gardening, or construction, or sci-fi, like K.Dick or Bradbury... What kind of weather do like the most (this spring has it all - snow, warm and sunny, rainy, windy, sometimes all in a days work)?
You have to take care of yourself, because noone else will. As in trust yourself, and don't rely on others to act in your interests. Doesn't mean act like an asshole, but this is what I have learned so far.
Uncanny. Ghost encounters, hauntings, ufo sightings in UK. Expert opinions from skeptics and believers.
Dark Histories. Crime in Victorian-era Britain. Narrative of events. Quite funny at times.
Ghosts in the burbs. This one is.. pumpkin spice latte, yuppies, cryptids, rich people problem vibes. Cozy and creepy.
Dark House. Famous spooky houses of America. Describes their history and architecture. Two hosts, but they keep the chit-chat to a minimum.
Silent Hill Radio. A varia of radio stories, suspense or creepy, sci-fi and horror. Could be recent, or from the 50's. All good, quality can vary. Some stories are quite well known. Recommend episodes Israbel, Let me see your face, Ancient sorceries, Zero hour.
for paranormal... Rabbits is good, some alternate universe stuff. Tanis is similar to Rabbits. Alternate universe game.
Black Tapes, this is soo creepy at times. Not a night, you won't sleep.
Nomads and Empires. Quite like Fall of Civilisations, but shorter. On nomadic cultures.
The Ancients. On various topics, but mostly history, archeology, but also classical work of arts like Greek tragedies, etc.
Sidedoor, there is some historical stuff, but mostly on various topics. Smithsonian history museum podcast. Recommed The Lost Woolly Dog episode, such a wholesome episode on now-extinct breed of dog native to the N-American continent.
Lore, of course, it is folk tales and myths inspired by historical events. American folklore.
Dark Histories. This one is like Lore, but Victorian era Britain. It goes through prominent crimes in that era, gives a narrative of the events.
You must remember this. This one is about the history of films, Hollywood and the events behind them. If you're into films, this is a good one. It goes through films by decades, analyses themes and topics, prominent actors, film makers and directors.
Shedunnit. If you're into crime and mystery novels. Especially female writers from last century around when the genre was established. Again, a lot of history behind the evolution of the genre.
Creative Codex. This one is a gem. It is about creative geniuses, like fashion designers and musicians and writers and artists. The host examines their creations through various themes, contrasted by the authors biography. Really makes you appreciate the art when you know the context of the artists life behind it. All episodes are good, but Emily Dickinson is a good one and so is Alexander McQueen episodes. This is not history, but as it is art, it might be interesting nontheless.
Yeah, sewing (sometimes). I've made scrunchies (much better for hair), a sleeping mask, pillowcases, hemmed the occasional pants, and made skirts shorter.
Is there a habit that you have recently picked up and what made you do it?
