part 8: day three FROM THE ARCHIVES: I was #5K7♠︎, a geological engineer at Saarbrücken, the capital city of Saarland. I gave a hand when Germany decided to not be tethered to the rest of Europe anymore —— we pissed off the countries on the west side of us: Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Switzerland and [ ]
Read entry →part 7: day two FROM THE ARCHIVES: I was #5K3♠︎, a bookstore owner from Trier. My favourite genre is fantasy so that is our store specialty; but I despise Harry Potters. There is something weird about it that I cannot quite put into words, so you will not find any of the volumes in our [ ]
Read entry →part 6: day one FROM THE ARCHIVES: I was #5JN♠︎, a computational engineering science (CES) student at RWTH Aachen.

Read entry →part 5: the chosen ones The cyber community was called…drumroll please ——The Chosen Ones (TCO). By the way, I was in a few of such online groups —— two on Whatsapp, three on Reddit and four on Discord —— but TCO was the sole invitation-only club. I felt special. We all felt special. The interface of [ ]
Read entry →was browsing the bookstore with a friend today and while at the arts section, i was asked who my favourite painter is… i won't even try to pretend to be cultured in this sense, which is why i was going to say "well, i don't know much about art" but a vivid image of a [ ]
