Two tiny tealights fighting the darkness. Looks like they’re winning. Go light! 🙌🕯️
There’s something about old stuff. You just point and shoot, and it’s going to look cool. Maybe it’s also about the fact that it’s still around, that it has survived people’s urge to trade the old for the new. A sense of “there’s still hope for humanity”.
Choosing not to choose, and it worked great again today. Fate knows my taste.
Meditation makes me boring — a few words about what meditation has meant to me, and what it still does.
I’m still so hesitant about posting shorter, title-less posts like this one. Even now, when I have robertbirming.com for longer posts. As if this isn’t considered a “real blog post”. It’s stupid, I know.

Found another hidden gem here in Chiang Mai today. It really feels like you’re stepping into another world when you go from street chaos to quiet calm. Realted blog post: The idiot behind the wheel

I have now moved most of my long-form content to robertbirming.com. I’ve set up redirects for several posts and pages, but far from all. I still like the idea of keeping birming.com as a Micro.blog-hosted space for shorter posts. Knowing myself, I hardly dare say it, but I really like this setup. 😎
There are so many cool, half-hidden alleys and backyards in Chiang Mai. Around every corner, you find something interesting that makes you stop and take a closer look. It never ends, and I love it. 😎
