  • Whichever one works and is the appropriate size for my pot supremacy.

  • This whole thing reminds me of a time in high school (tiny Christian school) where a group of kids decided to start a “gang” called the “Yo’s” and my friends decided that there needed to be a rival “gang” they called the “No’s.” Us No’s wore brown paper towels in our back pockets to show our allegiance and we picked which hallway was “ours.” Anyway, we had a mandatory assembly by the end of the day on the dangers of gang activity…

  • Spent a very enjoyable & productive day on Friday experimenting with letter-carving under the guidance of stone sculptor & letter-carver Aileen Anne Brannigan. On the EMISoS project, we are analysing the palaeography of inscriptions on cross-slabs & other stone monuments but yesterday we got to experience what it is like to actually carve these letters using various different stone types, tools & methods, which helps us to better understand the development &am...

They then gave me shit for telling them that this is a closed mountainbike trail and that their behaviour is dangerous. There are signs telling folks not to enter unless on a bike. They then tried to block my partner from passing as she was coming up behind m...

  • Three good things I'm grateful for: 1. Getting decent rest last night, allowing my mind and body to return to a state of balance and clarity for the new day. 2. Sharing space and practice with my Sangha, cultivating presence and holding compassionate awareness for those who suffer. 3. The playful joy of getting my days mixed up and sneaking hot cocoa into my neighbors' kitchen, reminding me to meet our shared human moments with warmth, mischief, and non-attachment. #threegoodthings #...
