@mariapopova If anyone can talk about science and maths and art and life and words as being different facets of the same natural thing, it is her.
She’s the very embodiment of Syntopica.
for e.g. What do relentless persistence, witchcraft, astronomy, mathematics, science fiction, the moon landing and an undying parental love, have in common? Johannes Kepler.

When I first began reading Brain Pickings—eons ago—I would skip her commentary in the “margins” and go straight to the quotes, because that is what I wanted.
Now a days the quotes pale into insignificance as I rush to read what she has to day. If ever there was a case of the frame being more beautiful than the art it contains, it is the Marginalian’s (@mariapopova)

I hope you dance!

If you extend your block because it gets interesting and then get tired and bored, you have only yourself to blame! have the discipline to stop when the going’s good.

Not as much head scratching involved, while making the plan, compared to yesterday.
I know I’m supposed to keep weekends loose, but I’m kinda making a pseudo plan today filled with loosey goosey stuff to do.
