Happy Valentine’s day. I was about to feel bitter about the whole thing, but then wonderful people who I’ve had the privilege to befriend practically bombarded me with love. So even after a hard day’s work I’m left with a feeling of thankfulness instead. Even though many of the aspects…

Under pressure
Love’s such an old-fashioned word And love dares you To care for The people on the edge of the night And love dares you To change our way of caring about ourselves This is our last dance What does love even mean? Winterdragon

Asterism

I’ve also read a fair bit of Almagest, a book written around 150 A.D. by Ptolemy which concerns the cosmological world-view of the time. Arguments for geocentricm, a spherical Earth, fixed stars, and things like that.…

Some awesome music
Yaay, music! I went to a concert yesterday. Tesseract and Animals As Leaders. Both bands I hadn’t heard of a month ago, and now I can’t stop listening to them. So much energy! Apparently there’s this heavy metal subgenre called ‘djent’. As in the sound guitars make when bending the…

Amanda Palmer, fever and awesomeness
Been back for just over a week now. Presently lying at home, snivelling and coughing, attempting to defeat a cold. I shouldn’t be surprised; what with coming home just in time for cold season and getting thrown into cold, dark and rain it is not more than could be expected.…
