It’s “re-read Arthur C Clarke’s Rama series” type weather, just like when I was a child. Summer time is reading under a tree in the garden time. #introvertlife #pandemiclife

Introverts unite…separately, in your own homes. 🏡 If you’d rather spend Friday night reading a book, have a handful of close friends, and breathe a sigh of relief when the phone stops ringing—you might just be one of us. 💫 #IntrovertLife #QuietStrength #RechargeAlone

They came. They stood near the snack table.
They planned 10 exits in their head.

Do you relate to:
✔️ The “bathroom break that lasts 20 minutes”?
✔️ Mentally rehearsing how to say “hi”?
✔️ Suddenly remembering your plants need watering… at 9 p.m.?

Then this one’s for you.
Introverts, unite — quietly, in separate corners of the room.

When it rains and there are thunderstorms, Fiete and Duck retreat to the small nature pavilion with their coffee. Then they listen to the rain pattering on the canopy and keep each other company. If they don’t want to talk, Fiete likes to read to Duck.

Finishing a book series is depressing because starting a new book/series and getting to know new characters is just as unpleasant as doing it in real life… #IntrovertLife

“It’s important to remember that everyone has their own personality and way of showing up — and there’s nothing wrong with that. There’s no such thing as being *too* quiet. Whether the comment was said in judgment, without thinking, or meant as harmless small talk, it still puts attention on something that doesn’t need fixing.”

New Thinkydoers episode today:
For the quiet ones, the deep thinkers, and the socially anxious — this one’s for you.

This week, I’m joined by community strategist Carrie Melissa Jones for a conversation that flips the script on what it means to "belong."

We talk about creating spaces for connection that don’t require you to perform, show up constantly, or play pretend at extroversion.

Sober dancing as a grown man is the worst thing ever and the real fear…I'd rather go to war!

Social battery: 2%
Me: Gotta go recharge (aka sit in silence and stare at a wall for a bit).

Anyone else hit that point where even small talk feels like a boss battle?

I walk a path unseen—
not to hide,
but to live free.

Every app I use is a rebellion.
Every setting I choose is a shield.
I don’t live loud.
I live real.
Intentionally. Securely. Silently.

I am not offline.
I’m just off their grid.

#Minimalism #Privacy #DigitalWellbeing #OpenSource #SecureTech #QuietLife #IntrovertLife

I don’t chase trends.
I seek silence, intention, and sovereignty.
In a world addicted to noise and surveillance, I choose tools that respect my space, my data, and my peace.

No clutter. No tracking.
Just clarity, freedom, and control over my own digital existence.

This is more than minimalism—it’s survival with grace.

Fiete and Duck were in beautiful Wasserburg. The two of them were looking for the best coffee and found what they were looking for: Deliano Kaffeerösterei sweetened the afternoon! There was so much for our two cardboard noses to discover!

The song: Joy Spring by Emilie-Claire Barlow

Fiete bakes madeleines. As always, Duck isn't much help in the kitchen and prefers to simply eat the freshly baked treats. Much to Fiete's despair. And while you bake, chansons caress your ears.

The song: Madeleine by Jaques Brel

A ride on a penny-farthing is a good idea in such beautiful weather! It goes without saying that the ride will end at the Coffee Nerd. Leni is just imagining what a penny-farthing ride on cobblestones might look like.

Fiete and Duck like to go skating lately! Duck is already super excellent at jumping and so on. Fiete still needs a bit more empowerment! Let's go, Fiete!

Bin gerade an der #lbm2025, relax aber noch ein wenig auf dem Parkplatz, ehe ich reingehe. Die Schlange am Eingang ist soooo 🐍 ooooo lang und mein erster offizieller Teemin erst um zwölf. Ich will da wirklich noch nicht rein. #introvertlife

👀 "Alright, I showed up… that counts, right?"

Social anxiety be like:
✅ Arrive
✅ Nod at a few people
✅ Leave before anyone asks too many questions

Tag the friend who disappears from parties faster than the Loch Ness Monster! 😂💨

Spring is here! Fiete and Duck make the most of the beautiful days and go on a picnic! Our lazy duck can of course be pulled in the handcart while Fiete skates in the warm sun! And because the two of them have excellent taste in music, Duck has put together a whole playlist of spring songs!

Song: Saturday by Couch
