"Why does no one care about men and boys?"
When I was in my twenties I used to buy the homeless guy I passed on the way home from work a cuppa or some food when I was grabbing myself something.
One day he tried to sexually assault me.
The men in my life blamed ME.

I'm not going to play the game because I'm a travelling wildlife photographer, which is cheating, but, if you are the kind of person who introduces themselves with "Hello, nice to meet you, here are 5 really cool animals I've seen," then *please please please* come say hi. We should hang out.

Been on a great free Kask (Kiwi association of kayakers) KayakSafe NZ safety course today. Great to be reminded of many things and learn new techniques. I highly recommend it.
Had forgotten how much salt water my sinuses can hold after a roll though!

The idea that once your body is done growing, so is your mind.

You were never meant to be done growing, learning, examining. But you could be persuaded to give it up.
