Is cyberspace and quarantine causing disembodiment in you? — Science shows that if there is a screen present, the human eye will draw to it — like it would to a snake. It is an evolutionary measure. Like snakes, our pixel mills can be deadly lovers. Fortunately, the postural slaughter we sometimes commit during screen time can be hacked…

I may be black or I may be white — on the left or on the right —man or woman, or unsure. I may consider myself free. On this paradisical Island I sit to surmise — this palm tree is not mine, my parents did not pass it on properly…

A Swedish word I love: fiffig. They translate it into smart, clever — but of course, it isn’t that. It’s fiffigt. Say that again. The onomatopeias are the little word factories we writers sometimes wish we were, flesh and blood. …

Yesterday, I had the beautiful epiphany that we humans truly are the flavours. Think about it. A person can be bitter, we all know that. Bitter targets the heart and raises qi in order to lower it, whereupon it decreases yin (the body). A person can be sour, as in…

A short sermon on your mother — That word is thrown around these days — “simulation”. It is the first response of the hurt to be cynical. I know what’s going on. I’m no dunce! But what can you do? It turns out, not a lot. But the thing you can do is quite grand. By saying…

Fetischizing a zombie apocalypse, and how Danish cozying up fits in — It should seem normal that Jack and Jill want their lives to continue — disruptions cost, after all, energy, and between corporate burnout, divorce and offspring disease, there simply isn’t much left to expend on a contingent societal collapse. Even if a succesfull post-armaggedon story could end up in a…

The lesser kip continues to be an important topic to me. Sleep is death, and so sleep is life. Wanting to fall asleep is like the Buddhist paradox, however, wherein one desires to not desire. It is a foolish stance to take and will only lead to undiagnosed violence. Having…

Is it love, baby, or is it just…psychology? — This was a story I enjoyed very much, because it was, as far as I am concerned, rather true. You never know what really happens between people, and in places. …
