I’m a Dutch muppet that looks at the world and tries to enjoy the view. Sometimes it’s hard, but most of the time plants and art make it all worth it.

Say hi to this majestic creature. They spotted me and waddled over all the way from the end of the path to check the camera lens up close.
Shana Tovah!

In other news. My friends and I still do our daily (when ever we can be arsed) vote on if video games were a mistake or good actually.

And this one is making it very hard for me to decide.

Did my first ever #gunpla yesterday. One of the most fun things I’ve done by myself. Amazing way to spend time.

I’ve always wanted to try this. And I’m kind of blown away by the engineering that must have gone into making these parts. The way some stuff fits is kind of mind boggling!

Sometimes life blesses you. In this case with a very special gift from my partner. That’s a first edition Homo Ludens by Johan Huizinga. Printed in 1938.

Cannot stop looking at, flipping through and just having it near me. I sorta understand what people have with religious texts now. Everything feels right. I feel like I have a reference document to all of society on me now.

Listen, Jennifer Daniel, I have no idea who you are

But you are doing the Lord's work out there. If you read this, please reach out. I'd like to thank you over a coffee / beer / something.

How did we end up with 🧺
look how cute #LaundryBasket was supposed to be!

We were robbed!

Is this bad?

I’m trying to bake flatbread. All insights are welcome. Thanks.

Or to quote the always wonderful Morpheus (seen left in the image) from the #videogame #DeusEx

“The human being created civilisation not because of a willingness but because of a need to be assimilated into higher orders of structure and meaning.

God was a dream of good government.

You will soon have your God, and you will make him with your own hands”

After burning papers with things we hate and fear, friends and I embraced one another with an eye on the future. Letting things go is always hard. Specially when it makes us look the things we aren’t willing to part with in the eyes.

I won’t lie.
Fear has made me silence myself.

The odd part is that I don’t know what I’m scared of. I do know that I hope to see more of the beauty in this world before my time comes. Hopefully I can find the courage to write more about all I see.

Hello world.
