Building small timber passivhaus in Correze, France. An area that was important to the resistance in WWII. I might yet use it to escape UK fascists. Growing trees for the deer to eat, fruit for the birds and nuts for the boars. It's going well.

Just a reminder for the next four years: the traditional media is useless at dealing with Not Normal. It has baked-in templates and modes of operation that forces news into Normal shapes. And that’s how things that are beyond the pale gradually become regular life.

It's 2025 and we are no longer beholden to sitting through those uhms and ahs. Liberate yourselves from these soliloquy shackles, with a summarised tldr as an added bonus. transcriberforwhatsapp.com
