Working Tools -13. Baron Fig Messenger

Baron Fig Messenger It’s been over a month since I changed bag [https://stuartlennon.com/working-tools-8-messenger/]. Perhaps a record? There must a syndrome name for this obsession. Now, I’m into a Baron Fig Messenger. This latest change was prompted by a super-short trip. Sunday last, Nero’s Notes

Working Tools -12. Buffer

The Dilemma I wrote before about my distrust of Facebook [https://stuartlennon.com/working-tools-10-facebook/] (and by extension, Instagram), and Twitter [https://stuartlennon.com/working-tools-11-twitter/]. Ultimately, I find the way that they harvest and trade in personal data abhorrent, and the way that they allow themselves to be instruments of manipulation,

Working Tools 11. - Twitter

Twitter. It’s a dumpster fire! This has become a cliché. Facebook [https://stuartlennon.com/working-tools-10-facebook/] is, in my opinion, corrupt to its core. It’s mission, honestly expressed, would repulse its users, so it publicly  espouses a different mission, while quietly pursuing the first. It may be that Twitter

Mike Hurley and Federico Viticci, two of my favourite podcasters, are fans of the “multi-pad lifestyle”. I believe the phrase may have been coined on Cortex, a show that Mike does with CGP Grey, but don’t quote me on that. I live the multi-pad lifestyle too. They, of course,

Working Tools - 7. Briefcase

I co-host a podcast, 1857 [http://www.1857.co.uk]. On episode 51 [http://www.1857.co.uk/backpacks-and-knapsacks], we inadvertently touched on one my neuroses. Bags. Backpacks, messengers, briefcases, holdalls and everything in between. I am constantly on the hunt for the perfect bag (or bags). Interest was huge!
