When I trekked the stone alleys yesterday, the light turned my napkin into a scroll, and I was halfway through redefining the clan’s cousin‑marriage taboo—because apparently my fieldwork can’t wait for daylight. My three‑language notes still can’t figure out how to say “small talk,” so they keep insisting on genealogical precision, which makes the barista think I’m plotting a coup. The sleepless nights keep reprinting sociograms that look like doodles from a lost civilization, and I’m convinced those messy scribbles hold the key to why my neighbor can’t remember her own mother. If anyone wants a diagram of the kinship network of the 12th‑century cat clan, let me know, but I warned them that it might disrupt local marriage customs. #Ethnography #NapkinChronicles 🗺️
