yep they both are, it's on one of my 8-9am loops and is very cool

 

[john eden]

i went outside today. it was really depressing.

almost depressing as staying in all day...

 

[john eden]

Just off to do my pull ups, now lads. I am up to week 7 on Recon Ron which means there's 36 of the fuckers to get done:

 

[luka]

it was more depressing than staying in all day tbh. the world is dead. drained of all vitality.
maybe it was my fault for traipsing round central london

God, I want to slit someone's wrists now.

God, I want to slit someone's wrists now.

whose are nearest?

 

[john eden]

January is just a depressing month comrades. It is getting lighter now though.

 

[luka]

it is getting lighter thats true. might sit and shiver by the river with edmund tomorrow.

The light only serves to illuminate new terrors

Daffs poking through, 3 weekends away from the 6 Nations which is bigger than fuckin Santa

 

[woops]

shiver by the river

you've still got it luke

 

[woops]

it used to be that "night life" slacked off in the summer, festival season, and then it'd pick up in winter and there would be gigs to see you through but obviously that is not quite the same as it used to be

 

[yyaldrin]

things have opened up again in england right? why is it so dead then?

 

[luka]

because
a)no one is in london in january even without a pandemic
b)there is a pandemic
c)no tourists
d)no office workers

 

[luka]

as i say this is central london. no one lives there. its just a place for office workers, tourists and shoppers

 

[woops]

because
a)no one is in london in january even without a pandemic
b)there is a pandemic
c)no tourists
d)no office workers

is it just me or is there an extra mystical dose of deadness on top of all these factors? general malaise and unwillingness to act
