Hey Mark, we seem to have similar interests, and I’m new here so I thought I’d introduce myself with an article.

This one’s about Giants:

Hey Jordan! Cool stuff. Yeah, I’ve been neck deep in mythology for most of my life (and was able to sneak it into my career ;^). Jotuns are everywhere!

It’s a very interesting concept Mark, and the revelations I’ve found regarding “mythical” beasts in historic books is quite interesting too.

It’s what I base all of my work on, historic books.

Pleasure to meet you friend.

Whelp that was heavy. Now to consult the Tarot and look at the Magician Card. 🙃

Also, I totally fell for the Kamala Harris merch. Then realized it was a marketing campaign not unlike MAGA only with a different focus. I will never look at another pair of converse or string of pearls the same way. Let go of social media for a while to regroup. Now, I read and think more about the substance. If there is any. Life is hard sometimes.

"I like to watch." Chance the Gardener. *Being There* (both the book by Kosinski and in the movie, brilliantly portrayed by Peter Sellers)

I wrote it that way on purpose. :-) I think this is one of my top two or three favorite movies of all time.
