Welcome to the Diner!

Come sit at the counter of our virtual diner and let us serve you a slice of mental pie! It’ll go good with a cup of coffee, then you get your refreshed self back to the fray with a few new beautiful thoughts to think.

In today’s episode we begin to explore the idea of Internet-as-Fairyland, sparked by an essay, penned by Katherine Dee, which is well summarized both here: What is Fairyland? and in this NYT piece.

Come join us as we follow our meandering way along the trail of fantasy and what it might have to do with virtual reality, and share your own thoughts as you encounter ours.

Grab your favorite drink and let’s keep the conversation going!

Also, make sure to check out Laura’s Goblin Market Curriculum, available on her website. Well worth reading and working through with you family as you learn to navigate the perils of the fairyland of the internet.
