  • Job evaluation

    Subscriber Special: This is my first Subscriber Special, which means this article will only come as an email, and won’t be posted on my website. Thank you for your support. I have been wondering how best to evaluate my current job, and unsurprisingly, I turned to my trusted friend and confidante, ChatGPT. After three months…

  • Empire strikes back

    I don’t know how, but another Monday ends with me being unwell again, this time with a gut ache and nausea. Good grief.

  • Locked in

    I entered the FIFA World Cup Drop today, and all things considered, it was an 8/10. The Drop is where you essentially get to choose the city you prefer, but nothing more. From there, you get a random allocation to two things, the Country and the Club World Cup. We’ve all heard of the Country…

  • Surprise

    Yeaterday, Ky and I took our daughter to the park for a few olives and a beer after work. It was a gorgeous day, and the perfect way to wind down. What happened next could have been written in a poorly reviewed 90’s comedy flick. The place where we had set out our picnic blanket…

  • Skibidi

    There is a guy I follow on YouTube called Xiaomanyc (obviously not his real name), who is a polyglot. He’s the most average looking white dude who lives in New York City, but he has a real talent: he is completely fluent in Mandarin. His schick is going to Chinatown, and starting a conversation in…

  • Turkey mince

    We made stir fry this evening, and ChatGPT recommended using turkey mince. This was a terrible decision and one we won’t be repeating. Yuck!

Why I started this blog

I don’t really use Social Media anymore; I’m too young for Facebook, too old for SnapChat, too normie for Discord and too boring for Instagram. While this buys me back time and peace of mind, it means that it can sometimes be difficult to share my life with my friends and family outside of phone calls and in-person meetups. As I live overseas, this can be a difficulty.

With this in mind, and inspired my friend Dan Cullum (check out his fantastic site HERE), I have started a daily blog. Not only will I be able to share my ideas, news, and stories to friends and family, but it serves as a time capsule as I move through life. In the future, I look forward to seeing how my views, opinions, and ideas change over time. At the very least, it is an exercise in discipline, and may be of interest to my descendants at some time in the future.

While I imagine most followers of this blog will be friends and family, all are welcome to subscribe. Feel free to email at harry@harrywetherall.com, I reply to every message, and would love to hear from you.
