beeps NOW!

A “now” page is a conceptual accompaniment to an about page. While an about page can tell you about my background and my identity, it doesn’t tell you about what I’m currently doing or what I currently care about. Thus, this.

Now

💻 I’m working as a frontend developer on the GOV.UK Design System team. Currently, and for the last several months, I’ve been working on the GOV.UK brand refresh and related work. I’m also writing WCAG understanding documents for the WCAG Primer.

🇸🇪 I’m learning to speak Swedish! Jag pratar en lite svenska.

🏥 Unfortunately, I’m dealing with a lot of health-related issues at the moment. Since the start of the year I’ve been diagnosed with asthma, hypertension, and sleep apnea. It’s been a lot.

🎶 Lately, I saw Daði Freyr and Montaigne (Iceland and Australia’s Eurovision entrants in 2020 and 2021) live, so I’ve been listening to them a whole lot!

📺 I’m watching Jet Lag: The Game, Taskmaster, Only Connect, the new Formula 1 season, and various Dropout shows. As per usual, I’m rewatching Star Trek: Enterprise along with The Greatest Generation podcast.

📚 I’m currently (slowly) reading The Anthropocene Reviewed: Essays on a Human-Centered Planet by John Green. I also randomly found this comic named White House Robot Romance, which is a weird but pretty neat concept.

🎮 I’ve mostly been playing Factorio, having fallen down that well again.

Recently

📣 I’ve begun voice training and laser hair removal so that I can Be More Trans.

🎙️ I attended a bunch of live events, including the London e-Prix, a live edition of the Three Bean Salad podcast, and a concert for Daði Freyr (supported by Montaigne).

Soon

🐾 I’ll be attending Scotiacon in Glasgow in February, and ConFuzzled in Birmingham in May.
