To comment on maybe letting the system eat you and digest you perhaps into something new: There’s a Japanese technique called Shou Sugi Ban where wood is purposefully charred so that it becomes resistant to pests, mold, rot, and I think also water. It creates very beautiful structures. You can intently turn yourself into a burning log as a practice as well. (Also, if the log is still hot, I think hot girl summer still stands).

Hahahaha yes, jasper! Maybe it’s hot log girl summer then 😆 thank you for sharing this Japanese technique too- I’m going to look into that more. Sounds exactly what I need to do. It was great to be with you today!
