I've no idea who the girl going in the other direction is. Disclaimer!  Not a great start, I know...but I'm gonna start off by saying this article isn't as...scientific...as I hoped it would be. And I know my adoring fans flock to my blog posts for their unyielding scientific rigour.  I kinda hoped that I'd be able to track the use of the treadmill...and track my weight...and show a lovely correlation - that using the treadmill a bit made me beautiful and thin...but life got in the way: The sun came out!

I also feel very sad when I walk through my estate and see individual people locked up in their individual houses all day working away. It all feels very dystopian and....unhealthy. Additionally, I feel like a lot of arguments online conflate working in an office a...

  Actual footage of me working remotely. I've been perplexed over the last year or so, like many people, about this whole Return To Office (RTO) thing.
