Ligger hemma, däckad av en post-konventsförkylning. I väntan på att jag återfår krafter nog att ta itu med plugg och dylika göromål igen tänker jag inifrån feberdimman skriva ner några reflektioner angående ett diskussionsämne som praktiskt taget verkar ha förföljt mig på sistone: tro, skepticism och deras eventuella samspel. Det…
Welcome
There are some who call me… Tim? Pronouns they/them. Former astrophysicist, current poet and storyteller, perpetual weirdo.
I intend to follow Mary Oliver’s Instructions for living a life:
1. Pay attention.
2. Be astonished.
3. Tell about it.
You are invited to follow along on my poetic life journey. This web page is mostly a blog where I irregularly share my poetry, recaps of adventures and general musings. For the most part I write in English, but occasional Swedish may occur. It’s been alive for 14 years and counting, although (like me) it has gone through some shape-shifting along the way.
For the latest posts, scroll down on this page. If you’re looking for a specific topic or post, you can find a search box and a tag cloud in the sidebar on this page.
If you’re curious about other pieces of art or science I’ve scattered across the internet, do take a look at my list of creations.
Well met, until our paths cross in Cyberspace or Meatspace. (Meatspace is my favourite, really. Hope to smell and touch you at some point.)

I love my life
Wow. It’s been over a week since I posted The Confession, and I am still feeling slightly overwhelmed by all the positive response and love and support I got bombarded with, by friends and strangers alike. This will warm my heart for a long time to come, and when things…

I want the world to know
This might be the most important blog post I have ever written. It is certainly the most difficult one, and the scariest one to post. I’ve been meaning to do it for well over a year now, not managing to summon up enough courage to actually write and publish it.…

Jag vill att världen skall veta
Det här är förmodligen det viktigaste blogginlägget jag någonsin har skrivit. Det är helt klart det svåraste att skriva, och det läskigaste att posta. Jag har tänkt göra det i gott och väl över ett år nu, utan att lyckas uppbåda modet att faktiskt skriva och publicera det. Men jag…

Veganpizzadagen!
Jag har hört rykten om att idag skall vara en stor nationell högtid, nämligen veganpizzadagen. En hel högtidsdag dedikerad till att äta delikata saker (vilket förvisso de flesta högtider tycks gå ut på nu för tiden) är helt klart något jag kan ställa mig bakom. Så dagen till ära skall…

Sonata Arctica on a perfect Saturday
Still in a mellow sort of euphoric rush after having seen Sonata Arctica live in concert yesterday in Copenhagen, together with a loved one. The music, the energy, the joy. Headbanging, jumping up and down, and singing along to songs like this one: Ah, pure bliss. And we also had…

Explorations on Danish soil and the joys of swordplay
Gods, it’s nice to be home again. I hade a long and splendidly fun and cozy vacation, mind you, but it feels so overwhelmingly good to be at my own place, alone (save for the cat), again. I can feel the sanity coming back to me. Today has been a…

A new year: contemplations and resolutions
2013 is here, and after a monstrosity of a sleep-in (even by my standards), I thought this might be an appropriate time to reflect on the year that has come to an end, and perhaps share a few of my hopes for the new one. 2012 was a hell of…

Current happiness and hope for future adventures
All is well. I am sitting in a sofa at my mother’s place with a cat by my side. Outside are snow-covered fields and forests, and more snow has been falling ever since I got here. I have just handed in the last of my reports for the year. There…

Sunday, bloody Sunday
That feeling when you’ve been coding all day and your program is fucked up but you just can’t see what you did wrong and then there turns out to be a friggin’ minus sign missing in one of the equations which in some magical way solves everything when you put…
