Didn’t you know, “politics nerd” now means lying about candidates’ motives and words, and spewing endless bigotry?

Working through the DipWSET D5... Crazy how small the fortified wine world has become! And shrinking all the time. Says something that prices have stayed so low despite the reduced production, outside of Port really.

Oops! I am new to this, should read DipWSET!! 🧐
Unbelievably, I am able to put WSETdip after my name as I received the result of my final exam today. It has been challenging at times but hugely rewarding and I am currently on cloud nine, should you need me!

These last couple months I've thought too much about what horrors the next four years may hold, while simultaneously studying like a mad bastard for the DipWSET--which has become, simultaneously, the most important and most comically irrelevant thing in my life. A little thread to figure it out. 1/

Gangi by Yaoshin Shuzo from Yamagichi is here at Mutual Trading HQ, promoting their SAKE!
Love their sake! You should try them if you see it at the restaurants or speciality stores.

That's why the DipWSET matters, to me anyway. Because helping people experience pleasure with a bit more knowledge is worth doing.

Especially in dark times, pleasure is worth having. Its source is worth understanding. If I can help spread that word, I'm doing something worthwhile. DONE
