Aimless book collector constrained by the limitations of memory. Mostly thinking about Greece and Rome when not reading SF. Coffee addict. Appalled by what we have done and where we are. Often found looking through a lens at insects and other detritus.

Most doctors agree on a simple plan for life: - drink plenty of water - exercise often - cultivate a fine coat of moss - grow out your antlers & fangs - wander the wildlands as a creature of myth and gloomy legend.

I seem to have upset the Nigel Farage fan club - so let me be clear. This man sows hate, lies and division. He is a grifter and a conman. He does not represent the vast majority of Britons. Repost if you agree P.s. multiculturalism is great.

It’s a good day for Mahmoud Darwish — “The Prison Cell”

submitted 78 days ago • 1 comment

As the great Mahmoud Darwish, peace be upon him, once wrote: “Coffee should not be drunk in a hurry. It is the sister of time, and should be sipped slowly, slowly. Coffee is the sound of taste, a sound for the aroma. It is a meditation and a plunge into memories and the soul.” ☕️
