Unlikelihoods?A place to display a collection of constructed artifacts and some verbal addenda from a man person possessed of little formal training, no institutional credentials, few social followings, and wholly non-existent renown. You may find a bit more about him here.
Unlikelihoods…The core credence here is that the unlikely, the novel, and unexpected propel and enlarge much of the very best in our minds, hearts, and world. The objects here and more words on Substack seek simply to smile widely upon some fruits that can emerge from encounters with the unfamiliar. There is more, so best not to hover about heretoo long and please, do come in.
