Tracking and translating content on censorship and other human rights issues in China. Knows changes aren't permanent, but change is. Will stand on the ocean until I start sinking.
@samuelwa.de@samuelwa.deYour Queen is an album you can reasonably listen to right after Revolver, which is high praise.
@samuelwa.deUpside: I listened to Revolver and Your Queen Is A Reptile, read a chunk of Piranesi, and finally watched Tenet, which I really liked.
@samuelwa.deInterviewer: can you explain this gap in your CV? Yeah, I pulled all the cables to patch in this sick new Quarkgargler module I bought
@samuelwa.deYes, it was a lovely flight, why do you ask.
@samuelwa.deHonourable mentions also to Mr Rearranging Airport Luggage Cart In High-Traffic Corridor Bottleneck and his cousin Mr Waits Till He’s Blocking Lane Before Stopping To Fumble In Bag For Customs Receipt.
@samuelwa.deIs that even more stupid than blocking people trying to disembark when you’re trying to board? I think so, but struggle to logically justify it. Different axis, maybe.
@samuelwa.deI’m generally trying to be less judgemental, but then someone steps onto a train and immediately stops in the doorway.
@samuelwa.de“的”
@samuelwa.de“Learned enough of the language to occasionally surprise people“ could mean literally anything above zero.
@samuelwa.deBecome a newspaper columnist?
@samuelwa.deJesus?
@samuelwa.deMan, I’d love a week in Actual London, though. I thought I was over the place until I started taking Daughter there. She loves it, so I do again now, even if she’s not there with me.
@samuelwa.deI mean it says something that it left a lasting impression when I’ve spent several years in London but only a couple of days max in the game.
@samuelwa.deI was passing the Royal Courts of Justice last night and feeling slightly uneasy until I realised it was just because I did a stealth mission there in the damned game. Its London is weirdly (and necessarily) compressed, but very well done.
@samuelwa.deAs I don’t seem to be able to arrange more than two waking hours at a time in London, I might just have to replay Watch Dogs: Legion, which still casts an uncanny double vision over the city for me five years on.
@samuelwa.deGosh, how unexpected.
@samuelwa.deAs if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced?
@samuelwa.deCrazy coincidence
@samuelwa.deMaybe this round of Piranesi Discourse will finally make me get around to reading it.
