Sleeping kids on the goat farm ! I’ve visited today with grown up human-kids , to wax nostalgic about our previous visits when they were small… (Charlie, Anika, Skye && Arnd too).

My cat Totoro (not his real name, only the ears & white belly hair & rounded shape reminded me…) #CatsOfMastodon

In the spirit of slowing down & doing less, I took 6 months to finish my review of the #DeGrowth conference in Zagreb (August 2023). Here's a PDF with photos & many many links: share & enjoy!

Sad view from yesterday’s city walk: four cut-down trees, their stumps invoking #ClimateGrief in me… and yet, there is a strange beauty in this loss: admiration of the trees’ age, bright orange color, memory of their strength still lurking… and perverse wish for the VENGEANCE to be cast on those who wielded such destruction! #climateDiary #Amsterdam

Life imitates art #CatsOfMastodon (alt: Black cat & colorful Mexican doll cat with the same extended leg posture)

Proja (cornbread / more like a corn cake) & cat eating it too :)

I just arrived home, in the middle of the night, with almost the last metro+tram : like a young person ;) from the concert of Alan Islamović in Amsterdam (ex-BijeloDugme, ex Divlje Jagode: Bosnian “rock” from the ‘80-s/‘90-s). I was singing & dancing with Nana & a room full of other Yugoslavians! It was amazing!!! I feel energized & nostalgic & proud & sad & ecstatic , all at once!
