Timo wrote a new post, The word visible, on the site Timo's Blog 1 month ago

I love to use the word ‘visible’ to describe things. To me, when used metaphorically, it means something like ‘relatively easy to observe and comprehend’. When I typed in into my last blog post I wondered if there […]

Timo wrote a new post, Astrology, on the site Timo's Blog 1 month, 1 week ago

Recently I learned more about the zodiac. I’ve had fun with it and I think it has its uses. I do wonder if I’ll experience a downside in expecting people to act like their sign and being biased in that way.

Timo wrote a new post, Animal products and plant-based eating, on the site Timo's Blog 3 months, 3 weeks ago

For the past ten years, I have eaten animal products all the time.

About a year ago I started a practice of helping my Mom(@merlinworks) with the daily mini every day. After we’d done that for a while I wanted to play them by myself so she would reset her app so I could play it […]
