Rowan Tree and Red Thread

I read this interview with David Graeber and was fascinated by the history of debt, debt forgiveness and how money entwined itself in society from the earliest settled times.

The ongoing business with the new house, the spiralling costs and the long delays in getting things completed, have left me depressed and worried. We'll manage despite the oncoming budget and inevitable drop in income that it will entail, but it's worrying all the same. So this video really cheered me up today (link originally via Radio Lab on WNYC but here via anyoneeverything). Sometimes it's better to look at each moment and let the worries wait.
