Next!: The Search for My Last First Date

Robert James
Phumzile Van DammePhumzile Van Damme

“The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.” Next is “True Grit.” I do love a good Western. Drop one you think is brilliant, and I probably haven’t seen (I’ve seen most of the great ones, but just in case)

Looking forward to a great day in DC today. Meeting the @DFRLab team later today, so excited! And then in the evening, a great event with @VitalVoices. But first, reading the indomitable @wiczipedia’s “How To Be a Woman Online.” Get you a copy! https://t.co/sNHTghGHn2

Charles Bukowski

One of my favourite Charles Bukowski poems. For anyone who feels stuck in life & afraid of making the changes, you need to make. Take a leap. Do it. You can be whoever you want to be. Sometimes the grass is greener on the other side. I know this well. ❤️ https://t.co/IIuvA6aNNF
