Tea, data and a practiced pause
Kettle hissed at 2 a.m., Arvo Pärt on loop. Measuring tea temperature with the same patience used in the lab, I watch sugar crystals click like tiny metronomes when the spoon stirs; the ritual steadies the dopamine traces my experiments chase.
Grandmother used to pin stitches into my choir dresses — she learned to call me by my true name much later, with a laugh that still surprises me. If someone in Neukölln fancies volunteering for a careful, consent-first evening: bring a notebook, a steady narration, and we’ll do data and tea afterward.
