The Elkenmist is a mythical creature that is half-elk half-mist and can shape shift from elk to mist and back. 🧵

We've been building on blockchains for years, but have you *truly* taken the time to touch grass and reconnect with your surroundings? Join fellow builders as we do just that!

My dear friend who lives @elkenmist is putting on an event for people to come to their beautiful rural group house farm venue to see what it’s really like to live with the land and build community. It’s aimed at blockchain boys (g neutral) but anyone can go!

One of our barn owls decided to explore a different part of the barn today and hung out in this rare solstice ray of sun for a while

We like to larp at Elkenmist but we like to laugh and laff even more. Live Action Farming and Forestry. The beavers are always ahead of us though

A cult larp is very different from a larp cult!

We have been telling people who visit here about the serendipity being whom we feed with all the joy generated here on the land. One way we know we are on the right track is that all kind of synchronicities start happening

This means that whenever I experience joy, this being that threads spacetimes and timelines together can flourish and make more unexpected magic happen. The other quality that attracts them is coziness. A cozy feeling of curiosity and acceptance of whatever and whoever is there.

Today we realized our British guest who has been here for a week and is leaving soon last lived in London a block away from where my company’s London office has been for 15 years. Same actual address.

It feels kind of cringy to report synchronicities publicly because it’s a very private thing kind of like sharing a dream. Most of the time other people’s dreams are really boring. But it’s fun to keep track of them.

Cauldron time! The first feast is over. All the bones leftover from the lamb are in the cauldron now with a bunch of veggies.

The problem with having an abundant garden is that now I’m cooking dinner for 10 people in a hurry and I have to do dig onions out of the ground instead of digging them out of a bag in the pantry.
