Here I am, urged to think on paper. I grow increasingly jealous of those in ownership of discipline and solitude for thoughts. My motherhood years have just begun and I can only feel gratitude when I look at my perfect children. They've been blessed with health, energy, intelligence and beauty; all which serve… ## [Infodumplings: Do You Still Have a Favorite Dinosaur?](https://stimpunks.org/2026/08/19/infodumplings-do-you-still-have-a-favorite-dinosaur/) _2026-08-19 · Ryan Boren · Stimpunks Foundation_ "Do you still have a favorite dinosaur?" And the question sitting right behind it: why are we expected to "grow out" of our childhood enthusiasms like dinosaurs? Dinosaurs are a popular infodumping interest among Autistic kids, and we are often ridiculed for our enthusiasm — especially as we get older and are expected to get "serious," which usually means focusing on what we can make money at. So… ## [Before Us, After Us](https://wehavefriendseverywhere.substack.com/p/before-us-after-us) _2026-08-19 · Kelli Klymenko · We Have Friends Everywhere_ Devil’s Bridge and the ancient story we are lucky enough to be a part of ## [RE : Writing by Hand](https://marisabel.nl/public/blog/RE_Writing_by_Hand) _2026-08-19 · Marisabel Munoz · Konfetti Explorations_ \[!NOTE\](As I minimise screen time during my holidays, I must admit I still scanned my RSS feed every couple of days — only the favourites tab — and saved anything interesting on Instapaper to read on my Kobo ; with the intention of writing a blog post, here's one of those.)

Should not bother me. The goal is not zero screen-time, but intentional screen-time . Sternness feeling pointless, resulted in scrolling RSS feed… ## [Weekly Reflection for Week 33 2026](https://stimpunks.org/2026/08/17/weekly-reflection-for-week-33-2026/) _2026-08-17 · Ryan Boren · Stimpunks Foundation_ Helen and I had a great time working on Star Stuff this week.

Twenty-three numbered zines, five field guides, seven printable sheets, thirteen collections, and six automated checking gates — built, in most cases, on the same day somebody thought of them. The broadside form came home from that site to this one as a new Broadsides library.

I wanted to try a different angel, and I also wrote this originally on paper. I could write on the purpose of life, as we call it. But I believe in a purposeless life. To each their own. To each a song. To each a book. To each a heartbreak. To each a love story. To each a meaning. To each a purpose. Our own.

It is called ★ stuff, it lives at starstuff.earth, and it is thirty-six zines, eleven field guides, five broadsides, and three playlists that all do the same thing: take one fact that is actually settled — piezoelectric bone, stellar nucleosynthesis, phase transitions, tidal force falling off with the… ## [A Moment Between Thoughts](https://wehavefriendseverywhere.substack.com/p/a-moment-between-thoughts) _2026-08-13 · Kelli Klymenko · We Have Friends Everywhere_ Sometimes the most important thing we can do is step back long enough to remember why we care. ## [Open directory of blogs (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/OTHf235eHdZp) _2026-08-13 · **Sponsored**_ Drop URLs or OPML — get per-blog pages plus machine-readable JSON, OPML, text ## [The Card](https://marknepo.substack.com/p/the-card) _2026-08-13 · Mark Nepo · Mark Nepo_ Krista found the card propped against her front door. ## [The Lie of Emergency](https://wehavefriendseverywhere.substack.com/p/the-lie-of-emergency) _2026-08-12 · Kelli Klymenko · We Have Friends Everywhere_ How temporary powers become permanent threats to democracy ## [Nature Is: Everything](https://wehavefriendseverywhere.substack.com/p/nature-is-everything) _2026-08-11 · Kelli Klymenko · We Have Friends Everywhere_ A short story of stars, dinosaurs, technology, and our place in the living world ## [The President’s Lawyer](https://wehavefriendseverywhere.substack.com/p/the-presidents-lawyer) _2026-08-10 · Kelli Klymenko · We Have Friends Everywhere_ Todd Blanche defended Donald Trump from prosecution.

Now, forty years on, you ask, “What does it mean to be great?” And I touch your head and then your heart and whisper, “To know the difference and let it live in your hands.” ## [Campfire Learn Together: Head, Heart, and Hands at the End of the World](https://stimpunks.org/2026/08/09/campfire-learn-together-head-heart-and-hands-at-the-end-of-the-world/) _2026-08-09 · Ryan Boren · Stimpunks Foundation_ For our Sunday, August 16, 2026 at 10AM CT, 4PM UK Campfire Learn Together, we are watching and discussing two videos about the same school and the same argument: a half-hour documentary about the Bildung Climate School in Rotterdam, and a Q&A with its founder, Dr. Virginie Servant-Miklos, hosted by our partners at the Human Restoration Project.

The Stimpunks Knowledge System went from nothing to a working system in seven days — a shared, self-maintaining home for our research library and our organizational knowledge, mirrored to two places the whole team can reach.

The alarm labeled with a whole sentence because the word "meds" wasn't enough. The one drawer where the important things go so they can't be anywhere else. The spreadsheet nobody else could parse. The playlist that means it is time to start now. The specific mug. The note-taking setup you have rebuilt four times.

Vacations will last until the day before my birthday — three weeks. On my birthday I go back to work. I look forward to going next week to our vakantiepark , letting children roam free. We go to the same one as last year because it fits our needs. This week’s reflection will be short as I try to minimize my digital and online time (I got carried away).

I sank into the torque that was your life, and how hard it was to know you. I remembered the photo my brother found of you before we were born. There was a light in your eyes that I never knew. ## [Week Reflection 002 - Wk 30 - Yr 2026](https://marisabel.nl/public/blog/Week_Reflection_002_Wk_30_Yr_2026) _2026-07-26 · Marisabel Munoz · Konfetti Explorations_ Let's begin this week's reflection with the highlight.

Not that I could not buy them. My old skates are still in good shape. However, they were meant as temporary. Rightfully so. A test run. As usual, I took my time to decide on an upgrade. After my last pregnancy, my feet gained half a size — a common occurrence — meaning my skates were very tight around my… ## [Weekly Reflection #34 - Automation and toil](https://rojoroboto.com/newsletter/weekly-reflection-034) _2026-07-24 · Nathan Toups · rojoroboto Newsletter_ Each week, I share one insight.

This fascination is seeded by personal need to understand my own perception. I am often questioned about color choice in my art. Most consider them artistic choice. While I do oversaturate the hues, I actually see these hues. My art is my attempt to show the world the colors I see, hence the… ## [Weekly Reflection: Covenants of Aliveness](https://marknepo.substack.com/p/weekly-reflection-covenants-of-aliveness) _2026-07-20 · Mark Nepo · Mark Nepo_ Covenants of Aliveness There are spiritual laws that no one can avoid or completely understand. How darkness makes its holes for light to fill. How two steps forward, one step back is the way of healing. How giving freely softens us enough to receive. How surrender flows into the basin of acceptance. How showing up rethreads us into the web of kinship. How life, along the way, twigs the heart into… ## [week reflection 001 - wk 29 - yr 2026](https://marisabel.nl/public/blog/week_reflection_001_wk_29_yr_2026) _2026-07-18 · Marisabel Munoz · Konfetti Explorations_ Weekly notes? Weekly reflections? Weekly notes usurp my mental space. An inability to articulate blog-posts have me ponder a way to break from hesitating behavior. My drafts grow, my confidence diminishes. Mental space overtaken by life itself. As I am unable to sit with the thoughts I wrote.

What matters is what rises up the stem of your soul that feeds your unopened blossom. But we don’t live in a vacuum, it’s true. ## [30 Minutes](https://marisabel.nl/public/blog/30_Minutes) _2026-07-12 · Marisabel Munoz · Konfetti Explorations_ There is a trend called the “ wall staring ”. If you are unaware of this — blissfully so — it is Gen-Z meditation rediscovery — stubborn creatures they are. They set the clock and stare at a wall for 10 minutes. This act of doing nothing rests their brain. Something the Dutch have done for a long time and even have a verb for . It is good a thing. Other parts of the world call it meditation. “… ## [Weekly Reflection #32 - Fear is a Diagnostic Signal](https://rojoroboto.com/newsletter/weekly-reflection-032) _2026-07-08 · Nathan Toups · rojoroboto Newsletter_ Each week, I share one insight.

As I type. As I adapt manifestation of expression. Minimalistic approach to words. Elegant simplicity. Poems hidden in lines; lines hidden in words. Games conjured by accidental voice in my head. Head full of narrators and whispers of collected memories. Ghosts of something deeper. Coherence lost a while ago. The machine took it away.
