Ben

Hi, I'm Ben.

I'm a heady mix of a serious responsible grown up man and a stupid man-baby idiot with delusions of grandeur.

I'm a big nerd, really into music, cooking, books, films and scifi. I hate/love running and generally love being outdoors.

There is a very very small but definite voice in my head telling me that instead of going on a walking adventure next week when my fam is away, that *maybe*..... just *maybe* it might be tremendous fun to catch a train to Gloucester, walk to Coopers Hill, and then hurl myself down it after some cheese.

Good. Lord. I genuinely figured they just rock up and you make something and that's it. What a ride! I'm camera shy so it's not something I would do. But I love food and cooking and am always ALWAYS fascinated to see how other people live, and CDWM seems like a study into variations of the human condition and a sneak look into how other people live. What a terrific story though. And well done for doing it. Incredible stuff! It sounds - exhilarating but maybe not so much fun?

It's mornings like this I think of the Sentinelese.

We all imagine ourselves to be special and then we see a pastiche of infinite videos from around the world of people slowly lowering their cat to the ground so they can be part of something. Whilst we talk about it. We hath become part of the catosphere. No escape from social media. We all wish to be seen or heard. If a tree falls in the forest does it exist? Must we corporealise ourselves through content and comment? What are we without connection? Are we even real? Or just information. Nothing matters. We just keep talking about the cats so we don't find ourselves alone drifting through the aether. And that is why I don't think I should have to pay this parking fine, Your Honour.

2026-04-16 11:27:29 UTC

Sometimes I am conflicted. I'm very much for the animals and against any harm to them (including mental). However. Daughter showed me a new trend on the tiktok of people ragebaiting their cats by putting them down incredibly slowly. And I regret to inform you I found it very funny. Also, and this made me feel a little better, one of the cats scratched the shit out of their owner, so I sort of feel like it's OK.

Occasionally a troll will pop up here. They don't want to engage you in conversation. They want to say something you'll obviously disagree with in order to get you to respond. That's what they're after - your response. It doesn't matter that you're right and they're wrong. When you respond you lose and they win. They get what they need from the interaction. Best thing you can do is ignore block. You might aswell argue with a traffic cone. It'll still be pointy and orange no matter what you say. Leave it out. It ain't worth it, babes. X

We are told it's vitally important to separate our recycling. Special days! Different weeks! Is it plastic or card this week? Don't forget the food bin! And yet, when the strange and terrible bin people come in the dead of night to steal away your unwanted detritus, they simply throw it all into one bin. Why. Why must we continue with this charade. Although they seem to deal with the food waste separately. Presumably taken away and converted to clean energy to power their underground citadel. As the simulation continues. We are the beta testers. It's Dark City with bins. I long for Shell Beach.

I assume that Azerbaijan still has 15th century style villages? With wells and taverns and shit? If not..... Croydon? We shall make our lair at the top of the 50p building or in the darkest depths of the Whitgift Centre down the West Croydon end near Boots. By day we shall slumber. But at night........ at night we feed. I'm gonna hypnotise so many people. I'll get the tram up to East Croydon then the train to Victoria where I'll walk vampirically down to Westminster and I'm afraid I'm gonna go fucking berserk. It'll be hypnosis-central, baby!

I think part of reading is about becoming lost in the tangle of another life. Making a connection that's sprung from another person, knowing they reached inside and produced something meaningful specifically to you. And that goes away when you read something made artificially and cynically - a formula to mimic in order to create engagement. Empty calories. Like a glossy advert designed to ensnare you and take your money instead of art meant to communicate and share with you stories of the human condition. I don't ever want to read an Ai produced book. I think it's deeply insulting anyone would make and sell them. Ai could arguably be used to produce...... machine operating instructions. Or IKEA assembly pamphlets. But not create world's for our minds to become lost in. I am not a cabinet.

As I'm sure you can imagine, I am an extremely strict authoritarian parent. Which is why I got back from running to find that youngest has approximately a million friends who are apparently staying for a sleepover somewhere in the house if we can find space, and they have separated into two teams, where members of each team are either blindfolded, gagged or earmuffed, and they are having a cake-making competition. My kitchen is fucked. I just found icing in the glasses cabinet and there's cake batter on the side of the fridge. The noise levels are off the charts. I have totally lost control of the situation (I never had any control of the situation).

I am FURIOUS about the way kitchens are portrayed in TV shows. Someone is cooking dinner but either end of the counter are chopping boards - both with 1 large onion, two large tomatoes, 1 shallot and a whole bulb of garlic. In the middle, a THIRD chopping board with 5 mushrooms on it. The food? Apparently ready. Why is all that food out? Why is it all over the kitchen? Who is designing these sets? Someone needs to pay me one million pounds to be a TV kitchen consultant. I will make the kitchens realistic. Immediate Academy Award for services to TV kitchens.

And I hope it eats away at them inside. And I hope they choose to use that pain to undo some of their harms.

If, like me, you've been actively seeking a job recently, you will likely be aware of the impact Ai has had on the job market. Virtually every other day is a msm news story about qualified and/or experienced people making hundreds of applications without getting anywhere.
Personally, although I've had a few interviews that didn't quite land (one I didn't really have enough experience, the others were pulled or lost funding), I've now applied for over 300 jobs over the past year. At this stage I'm quite philosophical about it and recognise it's not a reflection of my value.
Along with all the other current crises, there is now a looming employment and skills crisis. This is being framed as a benefits culture led by overdiagnosis of neurodivergence. Which makes me so very very cross it's difficult to put into words. I know that's not true. You know that's not true. *They* know that's not true. It's just a convenient demographic to throw under the bus to detract from the catastrophic damage being wrought by this new gold rush.
Urgh.
I've started typing this out a few times recently and always deleted. It's not something I feel very comfortable talking about. But I am really struggling with this and I figure that if I am there might be others. And I believe in visibility and not suffering in silence - been there and it was awful.
I know things will change at some point. And I know I've spoken to some of you separately irl about this (and thank you so much for your support), but just wanted to fire a beam out across Fedi to anyone else in this shitty situation. You are not alone. Always happy to chat offline if this is kicking your ass as much as it is mine! X

Go into the forests, people! Be amongst the trees! Commune with the faeries and woodland spirits. Sink into the leaves and turn golden. Submit to the earth. Allow yourself to become one with the mycelia. Feel the planetary hum and the interconnectedness of the Great Spirit. Understand what it's like to belong, beneath the canopy, among the night creatures.

Strong agree with this. For me, Fedi is a vibrant community that I belong to and feel a kinship with those who engage. I've spoken before about how I dislike mirror accounts and think it's cynical and pointless. Accumulating followers for the sake of whatever - clout, monetisation. I understand that artists and authors need to maximise their audience and begrudgingly accept that there are some who, as long as they engage from time to time, it's probably OK. But I'm strongly opposed to scrapers and meme accounts. That said, I realise there's shades of grey, so it's a shifting dynamic and I often change my mind about people. But for me, Fedi is home and community. A safe space and the antithesis of new-twitter. A beautiful garden in which I am a.... bug? I struggle a bit as my circle becomes bigger, because I want to remain authentic and messy and stupid. To talk about things that are deeply personal with people I like and trust. But so far, apart from the odd outlier, Fedi continues to be the community I always wanted. Vive la Fedi. 😊❤️

I didn't want to hijack @npub1cyl…ujca post about British values (see below), which was very funny but also a little bit sad (because they are clearly not upheld). And got me thinking what I would say British values are, or more precisely what they should be. Personally, I think buzzwords like kindness and compassion are a little too broad and we've been told this since time immemorial and it doesn't seem to have made much of a difference. So I was thinking..... Check on your neighbours. Feed people who come to your house. Involve yourself in community and lift up those who are struggling. Take responsibility for your local area, not just the border of your property. Say hello and smile at people. If someone tells you to fuck off they're probably just having a bad day don't take it personally. Support your local business. Hold doors open and help older people with shopping. Create, run and compete in a local breakdance competition to save the local town hall from being turned into a Starbucks drive-thru. I dunno really - I'm half messing about. But I would be genuinely interested in knowing people's thoughts of what British values actually are or should be. 😊🫡🇬🇧

I'm looking forward to the 9/10 hour Dune triple watch at the cinema. I don't even know how it will work. I think I'll need to look at it in stages. Like the Dakar Rally or the Tour de France. Maybe break it up into breakfast lunch and dinner with some light calisthenics in between. Or maybe starter main course and dessert (like desert!). Dune 1: soup. Dune 2: pie. Dune 3: the cheeseboard.

Petition to reopen the libraries but fund and market them as 'after dark'. Sexy libraries where you can drink cocktails, quietly meet people and read together.

This is actually really interesting. When I was young and stupid I decided to walk from Brighton to Hastings (about 13 hours). And what struck me at the time was that you simply couldn't walk the coast, which I thought was a bit weird. Now I'm old and stupid I'd like to do this whole route. I bet there are people planning to walk/run it.

There is so much in this world that diminishes and detracts from all of the wonder and beauty. But the magic of Fedi is that there are people who consistently post beautiful images and are a force for positivity and good. If you're looking for more of that in your life and aren't already following, I cannot recommend enough giving @npub1tpt…kvpg a follow. Incredibly inspirational and a constant source of joy that I find personally an absolute tonic. Really one of the highlights of my timeline. ❤️😊

I didn't even read the name. I don't even want to know. If anyone tries to tell me I will simply allow the knowledge to pass through me. I am a knowledge ghost. No information may take purchase within me. I don't even remember what we were talking about.

Why must we know? Banksy is an idea. A way of being. A state of mind. We are all Banksy and yet none of us are. Banksy is what happens when a society needs correcting. A natural response. When corporations become too greedy - when politicians are too corrupt. A Banksy will emerge from the earth.

I'm not on TikTok but my wife will occasionally show me a video that I think warrants breaking containment. Here is Stephen Spencer who takes stories written by his 3 year old and turns them into songs and it is adorable.

Rick Stein reckons rugged curries are 'blokey'. Ladies! No curry for you. Or if you do have one, it needs to be whatever the opposite of rugged is. Men have to have curry with hair and nails in it. A sprinkling of soil and some battery acid. You have to have butterflies and a gentle breeze in yours and probably read a poem while you're eating it, whereas men will just smash themselves in the genitals whilst eating, as is tradition. Grrrrr.

You forgot to drink your water again, didn't you, you dry creaky old husk. Drink some now to feel the life flow back into your withered corpse and revitalise you. The water must flow!
