The blog about things that should not be forgotten
~ Friday, May 1, 2026 ~
I am writing this from Honolulu, from Bishop’s kitchen, at an hour I would normally be asleep. My flight to Los Angeles leaves in two hours. I have not packed. I am writing this because I write things down before I do them, and because if I do not write this now I do not know when I will.

I have not published anything since April. I have been reading the same pages of the same notebook for six months. I am still in Honolulu. I have not booked a flight.

Eight months since I published the notebook. I have not heard from Pavel Šimánek. I have been going back through the pages I did not include, and I have found a research trail that I think someone else should be able to follow.

I want to be careful about what I am about to write. I have been careful with this material for a long time. What follows is not a claim. It is a convergence that I have been watching accumulate for the better part of a decade, and which I can no longer continue to write around.

Pavel Šimánek stopped answering email in March. I assumed he was travelling, or had changed address, or was simply doing the thing that independent researchers sometimes do when they are deep in something: ignoring everything that is not the work. In June a mutual acquaintance forwarded a notebook. I have been sitting on it since then. I am publishing this because I think someone else should know the notebook exists. I am not sure what it means.
