Seeing this Fleetwood Mac, and thinking of the the Faces, makes we wonder they don't make noses like they did in the 70s. What happened to them all?

awesome comment

It's not, it's absolutely about how it is processed. Read a decent novel - nothing like an AI response, which flattens the expression. it's a take on us by a machine. Useful sure, but not *us*.

I've invited some brilliant people to hold the weekend with me. Caro Turlings specialises in food and community alchemy. Nityananda van der Schee will guide us in ceremony to deepen what we're finding in the stories and on the land.

“Take a break from the small screen, petty daily anxieties and step into a bigger realm of nature and story reaching down into the soil and back over the centuries. It’ll remind you of what’s important and weave you into a community of curiosity, creativity, and support.”

That's why the weekend is called Belonging - all of us belong to something bigger. During the weekend, we find out what that biggerness is.

Our last weekend in November was a hive of rich community. Here's what my dear friend @brianfit.bsky.social said about it ...

heard stories that have stayed with me for life, and discovered the underlayers of soul that aren't always obvious in the onrush of cortisol-inducing headlines. In short, weekends where I've found myself and made lasting community.
