First skate in Berlin of 2021!
We had 15 mm of ice on the lake in my local park (Treptowerpark) on Xmas day yesterday, but overnight we have a -10° C freeze, and it had a super hard super strong 40 mm surface on it today 🙂 It’s a bit bumpy, but nice to be back on the ice again! I […]
Frozen Xmas day
Minus 7 degrees on Xmas eve was enough to give us 10 mm of ice. Not enough to skate on, but enough to give me hope to be out skating in the outdoors soon 🙂
Cookie problem
This is was my solution to the hardest cookies anyone had ever tried to serve me! Your browser does not support the video tag.
Xmas 2021
Somebody broke into my apartment last night! I heard some crazy old mans voice saying “ho ho ho”, so I stormed downstairs to see some huge fat bearded guy in a red suit placing things underneath the Xmas tree. I kicked him in the balls and he dove out my window. Then he threw some […]
Happy hour
Things were getting tense in the Strattic weekly happy hour today. Team 2 were at risk of beating us as they wrote a banjo played musical jingle to compete against Miriams genius idea of a book turning device built with a bike bump, collander, duck tape and a rubber glove. So I stepped it up […]
Xmas market
Tane, me, Julia, Basia and Mo went to the Xmas market at Alexanderplatz in Berlin. Thanks to Mo for taking the photo for us.
Freedom
Many people do not seem to appreciate the importance of freedom. Everyone dies; this is an inescapable reality of our own existence. We are on this cosmic plane for a brief window of time, and many of us would prefer that time to be spent as unrestricted as possible. Instead of hating on or insulting […]
Why are psychedelics illegal?
Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third story window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behaviour and information processing. They open you up to the possibility that everything you know is wrong. – Terence McKenna

Psychic abilities
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11347280/ What I do know is that we have absolutely zero understanding of how consciousness works or what it is. The evidence we have of it’s existence, is that we experience it. With this in mind, anything is possible. But there has always been logical explanations for the sorts of studies listed in that paper. […]
Foraging in Brandenburg
I had a fun day out foraging in Brandenburg. The foraging trip was organised by Tash from Avant garden.

Ideasthesia vs synesthesia
Ideasthesia While “synesthesia” meaning “union of senses” implies the association of two sensory elements with little connection to the cognitive level, empirical evidence indicated that most phenomena linked to synesthesia are in fact induced by semantic representations. – from Wikipedia Synesthesia There are two overall forms of synesthesia: projective synesthesia: people who see colors, forms, […]

Ass burgers
I’ve been accused many times of having ass burgers. So when I saw an anus burger on sale at a Burger King in Budapest, I had to try one. I give it a 3/10. I’d eat it again if I had to, but it’s not recommended.

Coronapocalypse regulations

Mo and I somehow ended up at a rave in the middle of nowhere.
Libraries
Libraries aren’t just a place to obtain books for free. They’re one of the only relaxing indoor spaces left in our society, where you’re allowed to exist without the expectation of spending money. – modified from a now deleted tweet by Amanda Killian, which I found via Cassienne Krenek
Kia Toa
I’m not sure why I ever joined this team, but I do know I was absent for the picture … I very quickly realised that this was not a sport for me 😉
Sim rig April 2017
I found this photo of my very old sim rig interesting. It was just before I actually implemented a proper one which didn’t slide around and use a swivel chair.
How to confuse a doctors office
How to confuse the shit out of a doctors office in one easy step … turn up and explain that they vaccinated you despite having a recent prior infection. Then when they point out this is impossible because your documentation said you had no prior infection, you explain that you received antibody test results after […]
Banana curry
So apparently banana curry’s are a thing. Not recommended ….
Vaccine
I have 100% iron clad scientific proof that it is far worse to get the COVID-19 vaccine than to catch COVID-19 … Months ago I noticed my apartment was overheated, which was a bit annoying. I was sweating a lot. Since it was so hot and I was feeling a bit drained of energy, I […]

Homeless in Berlin
An epicaly well manicured homeless persons bedroom. I’m hoping they’ll be “home” some day when I stop by, as I want to buy them dinner. They are very organised and tidy, which I appreciate.
Happy Birthday Grandma
My dear grandma died almost 21 years ago, but would have made it to the ripe old age of 99 if she was still with us today. She always said she didn’t want to grow too old, because growing old wasn’t much fun. So it’s not sad that she is gone, but I do miss […]

Motivation
Eloquence
I have no idea who this guy is, but he speaks very well eloquently IMHO. When you speak up to say “actually no, we ain’t having it, actually no, we didn’t come here to be enslaved, we came here to be free” now things change. You see, if enough people put aside their egos and […]

Humpties
I tried to use the word “humpty” recently, and discovered that nobody knew what on earh I was talking about. Once I looked into it, I discovered that only kiwis I knew were aware of what a humpty is. It’s also clear from a quick Google search, that the only places selling them, are in […]
