Storytelling science and technology. Enemy of jargon and wilful obscurity. Often doesn't follow back - nothing personal, just keeping my feed manageable.

A ridiculously fluffy brownish tabby cat lying on its back, showing his white belly
His front paws are folded over. His name is Bruno.

May I introduce you to the Pittsburgh Salad?

A 'salad' covered with chips, or French Fries if you're so inclined. The nation of Scotland weeps in delight.

Words to live by, from Primo Levi, who knew exactly what he was talking about.

Shema, by Primo Levi
You who live secure,
In your warm houses
Who returns at evening to find
Warm food and friendly faces,

Consider if this is a man,
Who labours in the mud
Who knows no peace,
Who fights for a crust of bread,
Who dies for a yes or a no.
Consider if this is a woman,
Without hair or name,
With no strength to remember
Eyes empty and womb cold
As a frog in winter.

Consider that this has been.
I commend these words to you.
Engrave them on your hearts,
When you are in your house, when you go on your way,
When you go to bed and when you rise.
Repeat them to your children,
Or my your house crumble,
Disease render you powerless,
And your children turn their faces from you.

My niece made this little guy (the hat, that is) for me a few years ago.

A foil-wrapped chocolate Santa with a tiny elf hat on its head, covering its face.
