Let's connect
I'm still looking for more people in the fediverse who write mostly about personal stuff and only occasionally post political things. Also, I encourage you to comment more, nobody wants to talk into a void...
Here's a list of my interests: Reading (mostly fantasy and general fiction like Naomi Novik, Haruki Murakami, Stephen King), photography, taking walks, urban gardening, animals, paper crafting, Cologne, traveling, music (Marillion, Riverside, Vanessa Carlton, Toto), the Netherlands, Spain, singing in a choir, going to museums, and lots of other things.

in reply to Petra • •Good idea Petra!
I also notice a lot of posting about political issues. This makes sense, because there is so much going on in the world that is disturbing and even frightening.
But here too we can try to find some kind of balance. Life is (much) more than just politics and venting feelings of powerlessness and anger....
I like to participate in showing what is still beautiful, or sweet, or nice.
Thank you for your call in this Petra!
For you this poem I wrote a few years ago, it's a haiku. It says:
Look, a flying sheep
with glee in its head
It looks like spring
Enjoy your day to the most!

in reply to Petra • •I fully agree, interaction is what social media is about.
My interests are: philosophy, cycling, gardening, walking, music, Portugal, bike packing.
My music interest is very wide ranging from Bach to Kendrick Lamar. Incidentally, I used to have all the Marillion albums back in the day. That was before I got rid of my entire album collection (a move that I deeply regret now).

in reply to Petra • •From Bach I especially like chromatic fantasia and fugue and, after reading Godel, Escher Bach, Musical Offering. I think the context was important to learn to appreciate it. I'll have to check out the oratoria later. I'm also more into old rock, AC/DC, Beasty Boys, Scorpions to name a few although from time to time I get a tip from our boys which I like (Imagine Dragons).
Absolutely great that you go to Toto next week. I'm not all that excited about large crowds anymore. But the experience always exceeds listening at home. Please, tell us how it was.
