Holmes spoke in a low voice, in the unmodulated manner of the man who cannot be sure whether he will stay the course. I shall retire for a few days, Watson. Tell Mrs Hudson to send all visitors away. No new cases. I will be in my study. Get me paper and coloured pencils, will you, Watson? Leave them by the door. Ah, one more thing. I want the wifi off.

I'm so tired, I haven't slept a wink
I'm so tired, my mind is on the blink
I wonder, should I get up
And fix myself a drink?
No…I'm so tired, I don't know what to do
I'm so tired, my mind is set on you
I wonder, should I call you?
But I know what you would doYou'd say I'm putting you on
It's no joke, it's doing me harm
I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain
It's 3 weeks, I'm going insane
I'd give you everything I've got
For a little peace of mind#TakingABreak #tired

I'm still glad I decided to take November and December off from my creative endeavors. It’s been hard to find time for myself these last two months.

I deleted my Apple News app today. In this constant state of fear and clickbait I was filling myself with dread (and giving myself a lot of homework, verifying sources and double checking with other sites).
Today, the news media no longer has direct access to me, through my phone. If anything catastrophic happens, I will find out about it the same way humans always have - through other people.
The mainstream media aided and abetted unfettered lies of too many people for too long, for views and clicks. It was just capitalism being capitalism, but this time the price is democracy and I refuse to be an active party to an institution which no longer has any integrity.
The pivot at the end, to try and save face, was far too little, far too late. The media doesn’t get to make money hand over fist platforming a serial rapist who makes headlines for a decade and then at the buzzer say “lol oops he’s fascist [now] and bad for our country” the week of the election. They made this bed and now we all have to lie in it.
When all of your “news” is distilled through the uber-rich newspapers and television networks, sane-washed to avoid defamation, libel, and slander - is it actually news? Or is it just a watered-down live blog designed to keep people complacent and docile? Afraid for their lives always, for fear of stirring the pot, and losing everything. Just keep your head down and things will work out.
No longer.
Please don’t mistake my message. I know the idea of “fake news” as a propaganda term has gotten us to where we are today, and we are about to see if the promises to dismantle democracy and take America back a hundred years are fact or fiction. I am saying consume factual, independent media curated by people you trust. Use critical thinking. And always trust but verify.
Next, read books. Fiction, non-fiction – doesn’t matter. Widen your world views and expand your horizons. Visit fictitious utopias in your mind’s eye and watch oppressive post-apocalyptic dystopias crumble by the hands the resistance, written by independent creators who participate in a craft because it is a passion, not because it made them a billion dollars.
Movies and TV I will leave to you, but I would say ditch all the paid shit and give your library a visit. With a free library card, not only can you read for free to your heart’s content, but you can access independent streaming services for free, too, like Kanopy and Hoopla. They won’t have Despicable Me 8, but you may just learn something or support independent artists.
Most importantly, disconnect in all the ways you need to maintain your sanity. The world’s problems were not created overnight nor will they be solved in that same time. The road is arduous, but worthwhile. When we all recuperate we will become more powerful, collectively, because you cannot control a free mind.
I am signing off for a while, to protect my inner peace. Disappearing into a book or an old puzzle, maybe an backlogged video game. The horrors persist, but so do we. I don’t know who, if anyone, will see this, but if it helps at least one soul it will have been worth it. Take care of yourselves and your neighbors. We’re all we’ve got.

An update as to what is happening with us in St Helena and our plans to fly back to Cape Town. We also elaborate on our reasons for taking a break from cruising and why Cape Town might be the worst place to get started cruising.
We mention episode with Dev and Spandana from For Sun and Stars on the Liveaboard Sailing Podcast which gave us another view on our own first year of cruising.
As always feel free to get in touch if you have any questions, remarks or comments!https://svtropicaldawn.blog/2023/10/17/23-is-cape-town-the-worst-place-to-start-cruising/

A very short podcast episode today as we are still in limbo wether we can fly back to South Africa with Coco or not. We’ll post updates as soon we know more.

We took a trip to Panama City Beach for a few days. It was another nice break from Tallahassee, but also a break from the screens.
In an effort to stay ahead and keep learning, I’ve been working on learning Python through Mimo as well as cybersecurity through TryHackMe. I’ve earned some impressive streaks - over 40 consecutive days - as well as being ranked in the top 3% of THM’s 2 million users. I was bummed that I lost those streaks because of the trip, but quickly realized that it’s okay to take a break from it all and be with what’s really important: My family.
I told myself when I started this new journey over a year ago that while I need to stay ahead and reach my goals, I also can not burn myself out and tune out the family. It’s balancing act. I got back at it again on Thursday - starting back at one.
It's okay to take a break. It's also okay to fall off the wagon. Just get back on and keep moving.

We took a trip to Panama City Beach for a few days. It was another nice break from Tallahassee, but also a break from the screens.
In an effort to stay ahead and keep learning, I’ve been working on learning Python through Mimo as well as cybersecurity through TryHackMe. I’ve earned some impressive streaks - over 40 consecutive days - as well as being ranked in the top 3% of THM’s 2 million users.
