I really love this Vincent Van Gogh quote:

"To do good work one must eat well, be well housed, have one's fling from time to time, smoke one's pipe, and drink one's coffee in peace."

No romanticizing the starving artist. Van Gogh said UBI all the way.

Clarence: Strange, isn't it? Each man's life touches so many other lives. When he isn't around he leaves an awful hole, doesn't he?

My out of office was turned on yesterday. First morning ‘off’ and I’m reminded of the time and space I need to move from ‘on’ to ‘off’.

I think ‘off’ takes me a couple of days at least. And the same is true for the transition back to work, from ‘off’ to ‘on’.

I am not a switch.
Neither are you.

“We are always, now, talking in terms of survival, pleading for money. Over and over we have to justify our value. In a world without drama, music, art and all other creative activity, our value would, too late, become horribly apparent.” (Rona Munro)
