Still life with a strawberry
2026, April 18, Germany - Still life with strawberry
Strawberries have gotten bigger and bigger over time.
In my youth, they were about half the size—sweet, and sometimes a bit sour decades ago. You can hardly overlook the manipulation anymore.
Large strawberries are easier for the industry to handle.
What remains is the beauty of this fruit
Like a huge grey rock
2026, April 12, Germany: Like a huge grey rock
Sometimes it’s useful to be like a huge grey rock. Invincible. Strong. Boring.
Spring
2026, April, Nature
I’m experimenting with my two blogs. I combined them not to have two separate blogs, even though the topics are differently. It will save money, but will it bring less work. At the moment it feels chaotic.
To feed two websites feels too much. Life must become simpler und simpler. To subtract task is in my mine not to add more tasks.
Squarespace made a huge update during my online absence. I’m not used to it.
It’s no ore a blogger software. The focus is on making sales on this platform, but I remained a blogger.
The first step is to get used to the ‘new’ squarespace. Fokus will be yoga. I’m also a creative person. My activities shall find a place on the same website. Those who are interested in this part of my life will find it. That’s enough. All people are stalkers these days in some way. It’s not necessary to showcase everything aggressively.
As less gender specific as possible
Germany, April 2026, Cat or tomcat? Champagne or booze?
We were out today and stopped at a restaurant. My friend ordered a dark beer, I ordered a ginger tea. Another waitress brought our beverages. I was asked if I had ordered the beer.
Me: No, it would be strange for me to order a beer in the afternoon. The cup of tea is for me.
She: We try to be as less gender specific as possible.
The consequences are that someone has to pretend not knowing something even though it’s 80% clear.
It’s a matter of politeness to ask who has ordered what. Sure. I’d do the same.
Nevertheless.
It’s also strange to pretend knowing less than you know.
‘Damengedeck’ orange juice and Champagne for the ladies and ‘Herrengedeck’ beer and booze for the gentlemen is probably out as well.
Times change.
I observe.
I’m amused.
The new Squarespace
On the road with high speed. Year? Place? The night and the speed and the rain is important.
The Year? The place? The night, the rain, the speed counts.
I remain a blogger. Just a blogger. Because it’s fun. 🤩 I’ll publish pictures, texts, ideas. That’s it.
