A blog of aggregated miscellanea and things I like uncovered from my daily travails. I'm @jacobjay, a peripatetic designer/developer of British persuasion, having interests in gastronomy, fashion, technology, interiors and sustainability. I'm currently living between New Delhi and France, working on a Lua web platform and e-commerce. I dig Macs, mountain biking and smelly cheese.
“ hard to find social interaction that isn’t uncontrollably sodden with alcohol. sobriety must be frightening - it makes one alert, it makes one accountable. it makes moron conversation sound moronic. easy, then, the languid excesses of inebriation.
what i wrote off as ‘normal’ eight years ago, now seems repugnant beyond endurance - people with bad skin teeth hair, impoverished insides, carelessly-shared bodies. ugly in, ugly out. these days are spent seeking shards of beauty. clear-eyed hobbits instead of ghastly orcs. ”
