It's rainy and cold out there today. I might just stay in and listen to Ella Fitzgerald records.
Barbara Stok's #graphicnovel "The Philosopher, the Dog and the Wedding", about the life of Greek Cynic philosopher Hipparchia, is a thing of complete and utter joy. Beautifully drawn, and meticulously researched.

Our neighbour is coming round later and bringing home-cooked Chinese food. I'm making mini mince pies and apple pies for dessert (with brandy butter). I love the little community in our apartment block here in #Dundee. #baking #sunday #mincepies
Actual footage of me this Sunday morning, in slight disarray and in need of a second cup of coffee, trying to figure out @Mastodon. (I kinda think it's going to be fun, btw).
Hi, folks! I apparently joined Mastodon in 2020. Who'd have thought?
I'm a #Writer and #philosopher (did my PhD on Levinas) and slightly obsessive language learner (do I really need to start learning #Hokkien, given that I'm currently living in Dundee, Scotland?). I mainly freelance, and am on the faculty at Parami University in #Myanmar.
Oh, and my latest book, HELLO, STRANGER was published in paperback last summer. It's good, and was BBC Radio4 Book of the Week. Here's a picture...
I’m really excited by my new online #philosophy course, where we’re exploring #wisdom, what it is and why it matters.

Do you Mastodon folks like #cats? If so, I should also post this picture of Aslan the foster cat, who is currently supervising me as I figure out how everything works over here.
