Yes, yes, everyone comes out with this now ... but I wanted to mention that I have an account on ko-fi https://ko-fi.com/naturematchcuts and, like many other freelancers, I fuel my storytelling with #coffee! 
So I don't run on fossil fuels and I am purely human in the outer shell and brain.
which is a lie. These tiny little aliens in our body, named #microbiome, don't live only in our gut but also on our skin.

I love changing my #perspective by slipping into the most impossible roles. It helps me see everyday things with new eyes. When I became this cute little green #alien, this is the result:

This photo reportage is genuine, created in a real Homo sapiens brain, and produced without any AI rubbish: an #expedition to a distant #planet where strong evidence of life had been found: the planet Elder 0815, part of the famous Mosslich-system. https://steady.page/en/naturematchcuts/posts/d242349d-fa59-4af8-a834-c93d580a4039

🧵 For all who like to see my #scrollBook project in progress, I start a thread for new photos.
The idea: Having art small enough for a handbag or hanged on a wall. 'Writing' a #book that can't get copied by AI or people - but can be inspiring for others.
Materials: A vintage wooden bobbin, tea-dyed coton flannel, #teaBags, #sareeSilk scraps, #lace, #embroidery, glass rocailles.

#ThrowbackThursday Once upon a time, I wrote a book about Nijinsky/the Ballets Russes.
It started as a fail: I wrote the story for an audiobook publisher: they went bankrupt in the meantime. I wrote it anew for a book publisher. They were bought by a profit guy who killed all artistic books. I wrote a theatre play and got a performance. Then they were out of money. Eventually, I published the book myself: my first step into #selfpublishing.
Years of exhaustion which I could have spared myself.
Living in the country of the "Tricoteuses", the famous knitting women of the French Revolution, I have a soft spot for #craftivism like this: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jan/29/ice-knitting-protest-immigration
#Handicrafts and #fiberArts are dangerous for authoritarian regimes because they connect and enable people.

My worst typo of the day: ‘a goof article’ ... it was a good article. 
On a grey, dark winter day, I'm a little bit jealous to see the first #snowdrops in my timeline, mostly from UK. Therefore, I searched my archive how long I have to wait. These were the first snowdrops last year, on 21 February, when only the moss is green in #parcNaturelVosgesDuNord In earlier times, they were our typical March flower. Well, more frosty fingers and waiting. 😉

I have long wondered why more and more chocolate-flavoured cereals are being sold in France, especially granola. Today, I overheard someone saying next to the cereal shelf: ‘Buy granola instead of chocolate! I've been doing that since chocolate became so outrageously expensive. I snack on it. You get the same taste, but it's cheaper and healthier.’

Working in a nature park, we see more and more #alienation from #nature in #children (of course, caused by adults who often pay more attention to their mobile phone than to their toddler on walks.)
Some creepy studies: "In the UK, 98% of two-year-olds watch screens on a typical day, on average for more than two hours – and almost 40% of three- to five-year-olds use social media. Could this lead to alarming outcomes?" https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/jan/22/how-screen-time-affects-toddlers-were-losing-a-big-part-of-being-human

Boah, I was about to make an internal transfer via app at my French bank (I live in France). Before doing so, I had to submit a declaration of honor stating that I neither have a residence in the US nor US citizenship!
France said on Monday that the European Union must be prepared to use wide-ranging "anti-coercion" measures targeting U.S. services: https://archive.ph/B1aHU
