Rabbit holes

Rabbit holes

mind the time

Topics I can disappear into for hours without noticing the time. Some are useful, most are just fun. All of them are fair game for a late-night deep dive.

pixel-pusher

UX / UI design

How an interface feels, not just how it looks. The invisible craft of things that just work.

GG

Strategy games

Build orders, map control, that one perfect plan. I love a game that rewards thinking ahead.

Current affairs & news

Keeping a finger on what's happening and trying to understand the why underneath it.

wordy

English & languages

Words, etymology, and the strange logic of how languages bend and borrow from each other.

to the stars

Space & science

From rocket launches to the very small — the universe is the original rabbit hole.

Computer hardware

The physical machine: motherboards, cooling, benchmarks, the whole satisfying puzzle of a build.

more cores

CPUs & GPUs

New silicon launches, architecture deep-dives, and arguing about price-to-performance.

Anime

Big ideas, bigger emotions. Sci-fi, psychological thrillers, and the occasional gut-punch.

soft spot

Romantic comedies

Yes, really. Sometimes you just want something warm, funny, and a little bit silly.

Superhero movies

Capes, origin stories, and cinematic universes I've followed for far too long to quit now.

Marvel

The interconnected sprawl of it all — characters, timelines, and the occasional perfect team-up.

DC

Darker, mythic, operatic. When DC lands a story, it really lands.

team pick

X-Men

My favourite corner of comics — found family, big metaphors, and the best roster going.
