  6. Positively surprised by Decathlon. We bought a bunch of equipment in store about 10 days ago for ice skating, but for some reasons (which I will talk about extensively in the future, iykyk) my wife won’t be able to go for at least the rest of this season, which ends in March 2027.

    Went back there yesterday to return half of the equipment kind of expecting them to deny it or at least question me since we had even removed some of the tags like from the helmet.

    Absolutely no questions asked, they just checked the proof of purchase and that the equipment was still in new condition and returned the money right away.

    Additionally, I had the fun experience of “paying” -85 € by tapping my card to the POS for them to get the data to refund the money. Never had seen that before.

  7. I gave up part way through my second listing of the audiobook Deep Work by Cal Newport.

    Some interesting stuff in there (e.g. Sophie Leroy's "Attention Residue" is a nice way to describe the effect of leaving one task in an uncertain state and switching to another), but mostly concepts I've already read about in some detail.

    I don't actually disagree with the main premise, but I don't like how the book focuses on squeezing better work out of people rather people to live more fulfilling lives, how if you don't learn to deep focus you'll get left behind, and the degree of disdain for what is considered "shallow work".

    Throughout the book, the author fawns over some pretty questionable people (JKR, DHH, Jack Dorsey, Nate Silver, Woody Allen, etc) and points at their wealth as proof of the Deep Work concept.

    The author rightly criticizes Marissa Mayer for deciding who has been slacking off by looking at the company VPN access logs, and rightly points out that we have a tendency to rely on and believe bad metrics in situations where things are hard to measure, but then he goes on to talk about how everyone needs to be "superstars" and totally ignores the fact that a diverse team of mixed skilled people can massively outperform the mythical 10x-ers over the long term.

    Anyway, I'm fed up, and have moved on to The Brain That Changes Itself by Norman Doidge which is already bloody fascinating. I'm only 25 minutes in and I've learned how an almost completely wrecked vestibular system, caused by the overuse of certain antibiotics gave a woman the feeling she was always falling. She had this for 5 years and was told it was a permanent condition, but a prototype helmet that fed her stability signals though her tongue, gave her breaks from these feelings along with the ability to stand without clinging on to something for dear life. What was unexpected though, was the effect remained for a while after the helmet was removed, and the more times she used the helmet, the longer the effect remained.

  8. Netherwilds – Peasant Rising Review By Andy-War-Hall

    When 2026 started, I had no history with indie rock group Tokyo Police Club’s frontman David Monk or his viral TikTok peasant-sona Worm Chewer. But when the lead single of Monk’s avant-garde “peasant metal” side project Netherwilds dropped—”Return the Goat”—Peasant Rising immediately shot to my most anticipated release of the year. That snapshot of blackened hardcore folk was wild in a way I couldn’t have anticipated. The promise of a concept album following Worm Chewer’s peasant revolution involving mud mages, witch hunters, and Druidic battlemechs only sweetened the deal.1 But I’m also seeing high expectations for an untested band’s debut in Peasant Rising, something that could easily smite Netherwilds’ fairytale ending. Is Peasant Rising a kingmaker, or are Netherwilds’ ambitions…feudal?

    To my knowledge, nothing else sounds like Peasant Rising. Netherwilds pushes thrash, industrial, hard rock, black metal, and doom through a sieve of eclectic Refusedesque hardcore and romanticized medieval folk. Between EDM drums meeting crossover thrash on “Helm Yeah,” “Dungeon Song” trading hypnotic folk with blackened blasts, and theater choir setting the stage for double-f’d-up tuff groove on “The Fall,” there’s always something novel happening with Peasant Rising. Like a ye olde Systemme of a Downe, every disparate genre thrives symbiotically in Netherwilds’ sound, stacking strength upon strength into a distinct, singular identity. Two ubiquitous factors tie Peasant Rising together sonically: folk aesthetics and insanely catchy hooks. Led by Monk’s bouzouki, folk instrumentation offers continuity whenever Netherwilds jumps from hardcore riffing (“Farmer’s Armoury”) to Slayer-informed thrash (“Return the Goat”) to acoustic industrial groove (“Blight!”) and back. With this creativity come well-earned earworms. Hear the radio-ready “The Ballad of Sir Gregory” or the atmospheric “Cry in the Hay,” or any one of the bombastic choirs across Peasant Rising and you’ll be humming them before you know it. It’s one thing to sound one-of-a-kind; it’s another to also sound as sharp, vital, and catchy as Peasant Rising.

    What makes Netherwilds’ genre witchcraft so compelling is how it forwards the narrative told on Peasant Rising. Aided by many short narrative interludes,2 Peasant Rising tells a story of desperation, oppression, and revolution. Each beat is met with an appropriate musical identity. Worm Chewer’s belligerently drunk early ideations of rebellion are captured in the raucous ragers of “Peasant Pit” and “Helm Yeah,” while his tighter, more focused calls to revolution in “The Fall” and “Return the Goat” come later. SepticFlesh-like symphonic death riffs and choirs on “Heretic” characterize the seething sanctimoniousness of the king’s Inquisition, while the grimy Sabbathian doom riffs on “Wickermech” sell the monstrosity of its titular war machine. Guitar solos are few on Peasant Rising, but when Worm Chewer feels badass on “The Ballad of Sir Gregory” or unspeakably livid on “Return the Goat,” you’d best believe they come out ripping. Netherwilds play with an ear for hooks and a mind for narrative, portraying Peasant Rising’s tale in convincing earnestness.

    That earnestness is what most surprised me about Peasant Rising; I never expected to be as moved by Netherwilds as I was amused by them. Eager to hype up Worm Chewer’s “Siege Proof Hovel” or “show these nobles who’s King of the Crops” (“Peasant Pit”), Netherwilds are just as equipped to bear the cruelty of the ruling class and show Worm Chewer at his lowest: “cry in the hay and call it a prayer” (“Cry in the Hay”). Encapsulating Peasant Rising’s narrative identity is one brilliant metaphor: the goat. The object of jilted remorse on “Peasant Rising,” the goat transforms as Worm Chewer radicalizes (“Siege Proof Hovel”), suffers oppression and degradation (“Dungeon Song”), and galvanizes the Humble Horde (“Farmer’s Armoury”). By the time we reach “Return the Goat” in Peasant Rising’s climax, the goat isn’t just a metaphor for the peasants’ labor being exploited by the parasitic nobility but also Worm Chewer’s self-respect and dignity. “Take me for no fool,” he implores. Despite the farce of Peasant Rising, I must oblige.

    Merging grand storytelling, dark humor, a keen social consciousness, and some of the wildest compositions out there, Netherwilds swing Peasant Rising like a battering ram against the gates of Metaldom. Rarely has a record been so affecting as it is fun as Peasant Rising. Inventive and approachable, high-minded and down-to-earth, Netherwilds lived up to the hype and then some. The boon of hard labor and relentless creativity, Peasant Rising is a debut Netherwilds can hang their helmet on. Don’t be the village idiot; take up your pitchfork and get with Peasant Rising.
