Salt Compass. Embroidery for a unisex fashion statement

 



Before stitching, place a bowl of saltwater and a shard of ice beside your cloth.

Dip your fingers in both—feel the contrast.

As you stitch the compass, speak aloud the names of places you’ve lost, found, or longed for.

With each quadrant, ask:

What direction does my heart resist?

What element does it crave?

What memory needs thawing?

When finished, fold the cloth inward from each edge, like closing a map.

Place it under your pillow for one night.

Dream of a new orientation.

How the Day Started

On this morning in June 2025, after a substantial break, I am back to blog. Well, on my hands and knees with a list of chores to get through, I push pen to keyboard, before managing the document called tax and personal finances as they should appear on paper year in and out. Every educated Australian is in this space all the time.   Clean the kitchen window.  Oh! To be able to see outside again; view uninterrupted. Window cleaning blue stuff check. Rubber cleaning blade check. Anticipation of satisfaction 10 to 10.  This is my new grading system.  If I get to this chore today 10 to 10. If I have to skip it for something else then the score decreases.  Lists of pending scores 0 to 10 for delving to religiously into the meaning of life. And yet that list does sometimes exist. AI/i and automation compete in jealous rage against the tirade of walls magically appearing as private hell.  I read this, and finally I am back to blog.  https://www.msn.com/e...

To: start the clock

https://youtu.be/_e7UYTY96Xs?si=nxlpNYq_KW3qJpI- It behoves the United Press to support the Government of the democratically elected governing authority; on location not on App.  App to Apple. Sensor Five at GSM. Report on the relative thickness of the weight band but do not pull weights. I repeat for you to Copy.  copy?  Just rehearsing this digital signature.  Not on your watch!  Not on your life.  This decision is at least twelve months away.  You shall not succumb to nonsense!  Comprehension is the Law. I command you to stop the traction beam on revisions.  Stabilise the draw down signal.  We are set to repeat verse until the last second to six months.  That's trolley induction for you space fans. Better sort out that inflation index on human value.  These packaged goods are resting on the plasticity of seams, enclosures and what have you. Set borders for defunct personality disclosures and report to Editors.  Mate, yo...

Chinese Made Electric Vehicles and More

Some say love is a river held against your ear. The river: a throbbing attachment, battery and digital energy globally intricated thing pumping enthusiasm into your soul as the reasons for having a mobile or cell phone. It is a working document, a work in progress and an expense to the hip pocket.  Catch me salty and fresh. Bikini was never a motto. Slimline, flip lid, high tech. I can afford to assemble one on purchase.  The USA will now manufacture off the defense budget ... a cell phone.  Do you want to be my China, Philippines? But I do not know how.  Great question, Manu. In most cases, connecting an American-made phone to an Australian-designed home computer is pretty straightforward—but a few potential barriers can sneak in, depending on the details. Here’s what might trip things up: Billing the Internet service.  1. **Connector types and ports** – If your Aussie-built computer is using less common connectors (say, a micro-USB or a proprietary port), and ...
