I’m always surprised when it happens. 99% of the time I’m just tolerated, but every once in a while someone asks. Happened last night. I was sooooooooo happy.

    Thank you, it was very nice of you to say. I really am better at it in person, I tend to get off on a lot more tangents, which can be interesting or tedious depending on your point of view.

    There are some stunning areas in the diagonal, if I was a digital nomad with n EU passport that’s where I would base myself. Lots of beautiful old houses for little money, bit like Akiya in rural Japan.

      God we’d be such fast friends in real life…if you could put up with my own tangents and rambling, anyway. I love having conversations that lead me to 10 tabs of Wikipedia

        I had a long time partner who had her own things. It was pretty normal for us to talk during and after dinner, then retreat to our own worlds. She or I would ask what the other was doing sometimes, “nothing, just reading” meant you were 10 pages deep, and chasing all the citations.
