No Laptop

Shoutout to this cool person I met in the lounge at Heathrow.

A person with long purple hair gives a thumbs up at a table with a full keyboard, monitor and tiny computer.

We got talking while she was setting up. She explained – wherever she goes she has a full keyboard, 2 monitors and a powerful setup. She always left her laptop plugged in to external monitors at home and she had it plugged into external monitors at work, so why not just carry the tiniest part she needs.

I love it.

The Black Cone, Monument to Disobedience

Gotta love this climbable monument in Reykjavík. I don’t know if you’re supposed to climb it but I didn’t think I could tell these kids not to get on it once they read the plaque.

Two kids climb a rock with a black cone splitting it. A plaque reads “THE BLACK CONE, MONUMENT TO CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE
"When the government violates the rights of the people, insurrection is for the people and for each portion of the people the most sacred of rights and the most Indispensable of duties."
Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen (1793)” in English and Icelandic.

Magical Clouds of Central Park

It’s a beautiful misty spring morning and I climb the stairs out of the Q train. I look up and see one of those magical New York sights. The clouds are hanging so low that I can see them actually flow through the trees of Central Park.

Beautiful low clouds flowing through Central Park
I’m struck still. This is so rare and beautiful.  I’ve got to share a picture of it with you. You need to see these low clouds hanging out in the park, slowly ambling by.

Of course, then I turn around and look behind me, because who can trust beauty to just be simple and perfect.
