Let's see. One thing I haven't talked about much is my #Zen #Buddhist involvement.

Which is entirely appropriate :) since my favorite phrase in this area is "language can't express truth"; but we muddle through anyway.

I have a (by some standards, nonexistent) #shikantaza (and so technically #soto I guess, and I do adore ol' #Dogen) practice, where I sit for some amount of time, watching thoughts and phenomena arise and dissipate, with no particular aim. This is, like, the best thing in the world!

I took part in r/zen for awhile, but it was (and maybe still is) a permanent trashfire dominated by a small group of people with their own bizarre ideas about Zen and an endless appetite for pointless conflict, which is sort of sad.

I don't have a local (or online) #sangha, really. I've done a couple of two or three day retreats at #ZMM , and they were great.

But mostly I just exist, to the limited extent that those words have any meaning. :)

Willing and even eager to discuss all this sort of thing with anyone here who is interested!
