The Tinkering Dwarf

To Be Silly Even When Everything Feels Dark

I am aware that the world is terrible right now, I see the news even though I try to limit it for myself (because I'm already anxious enough as it is). I guess some people will want to crucify me for staying ignorant but it is what it is. I need to protect my small section of the world because as optimistic as I am, frankly, I won't be able to do shit to help people from across the globe.

Part of the protection for myself is the fact that I want to keep this blog as positive as I can. That's not to say I won't write about something sad or potentially angry, but I created this as a form of practicing gratitude in my life. For learning how to notice the small things around me, and for rekindling that childish wonder that I feel I've lost after getting older.

This space is for me to share what I find fun and interesting. To write about my silly little experiments or what current rabbit hole I'm deep into. The world can be a dark place, and I want to emphasize the lightness that exists around us too.

I don't know what caused this rant but I just wanted to say my piece. Stay silly, the world goes round anyways.
