David “melatonin” Watson

Or lewismistreated, however you knew him. I don't really know how to say this. Well, he took his own life recently. Karl (Lost and Found) broke the news on the 15th of January 2025 in a group chat on Facebook that I originally set up to let everyone know that the Random Fury! forums were closing, back in 2018. I…

Direction decided. A fresh start.

With reference to this post: https://iaindstewart.net/blog/2023/11/03/starting-again/ This is another one of those natural break points in my life where everything seems to be changing or shifting - this time it's not me waking up after a long period of apathy or feeling aimless, but I feel like things are going in the right direction this time. Lots of things are…

Sunday Service: Good week

Wow. What a week I've had. I had two morning workouts, taken my supplements every morning, and I've felt motivated to DO STUFF, which I really have not felt for a long time. It's a nice feeling. I've bought some domains, and both have functioning websites on them. One even has Woo Commerce turned on and is integrated with Gelato,…

Self-isolation, quarantine, whatever this limbo is; week seven

Time is strange at the moment. It goes fast, but feels slow. Days take ages, but are over before you know it. This strange coronavirus limbo is warping things. It's so quiet outside, it's unreal. Eerie. Spooky. It feels like the entire world has been paused. I didn't get a rowing machine in the end, I'm ashamed to say the…

From Ramblings, to Reflections

I'm changing "Ramblings" to "Reflections". It's not often I make changes or additions to the structure of the blog, but this seems right. Language is fascinating, and this is an example of how the language you choose to use defines you. You see, "Ramblings" gives the impression of me waffling on about nothing in particular. This is not something I…

What’s the score?

When I first started writing a blog back in 2005 I had no idea I'd still be writing it now. I thought it'd be a short-lived thing. I wouldn't stick to it. That would be the kind of thing I do. But here we are, thirteen years later. I've moved all my posts over from various other websites I've had…
Waves is gone

Waves is gone

My old blog, Waves, which used to be at the old domain of randomfury.co.uk, is no more. All the posts have been folded into this blog. It was a lovely place, if a bit quiet. I feel like I've written this a lot recently, but it was always more for me to cathartically write than for people to read. I'd…
