Preparing the next two weeks while enjoying the new season of «Will Trent». There are worse ways avoiding doing the taxes. Today’s second half of the day my #ADHD ruled over my #autism like a dictator. Not tolerating any deviations.

Tea time.

And then?

Back to the tax returns. Still not done. And it will take a tribute.

A Matchbox, a black flag with the hebrew letter א , below the word «ALEPHISTA», as a logo print on the matchbox, is also visible on the bottom right of the tray. The background is a light wood surface.

Watched «How to Build a Truth Engine» by Friedrich Moser at the Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung.

I really recommend this documentary.

Right now I follow the discussion on the stage w/ Dr. Clara Iglesias Keller and Friedrich Moser.

Friday I went to the movies. The #cinema. The #Lichtspielhaus. For the first time after 1787 days. March 4th, 2020.

Back then it was «Les Miserables» (2019).

«A Real Pain» (2024) was it yesterday.

Yesterday I worked all day the first time for over a year, on a #typography project w/ an #illustration #artist. More on this later.

Today I need to start slow and careful: I'm exhausted and need to reload my drained battery 🪫.

Breakfast and rest.
