Parenting a son with autism is hard. The thunderstorms of rage pass, but lightning is fired from the maelstrom in the moment.
My reward for mowing the lawn.
Bed Update 🛏️: I appreciate all the thoughts and suggestions. I went with the expensive, local-manufactured option. Supporting Western Australian small business! Also hopefully getting a better product as a result.
The Edit of Hemispheric Views 078
Here is a screenshot of the edit for Hemispheric Views episode 078. Six audio tracks in play. Lots of edits and adjustments. Ferrite by WoojiJuice makes this possible, combined with a couple of years of editing experience and know-how I have built up. I’m proud that I have the skills to do this. Not something that generally goes on my curriculum vitae, but maybe it should?
In Andrew’s exciting world today, he does online shopping for bed frames. Does he buy the cheap one? Does he take the risk of entering the second-hand market? Or does he say, “stuff it”, and buy the expensive locally-manufactured option? Opinions welcomed. 🛏️
The @hemisphericviews Discord server is my happy place. I love the wonderful community that has formed there.

Finished reading: Relationship Reset by Lissy Abrahams 📚
Finished reading: Belong by Radha Agrawal 📚
Finished reading: Disentangle by Nancy L. Johnston 📚. This book has taught me things I didn’t realise were a thing.
Finished reading: The Anxiety Handbook by Calistoga Press 📚
Currently reading: The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday 📚. I am hoping I will be able to read this each day this year. I need to escape the mental health dangers and associated anxiety of ruminating upon things I can’t control.
Stutz, 2022 - ★★★★
Me bring me, I wanted more technical details of application.
The Menu, 2022 - ★★★★
A gastronomical delight, with acting to die for.
Depression is a right bastard. ☹️

I’m old so I liked cameos by old guys. But this is a movie for the next gen, with a solid development montage.
