The Teakettle – 1st February 2026

wait for the whistle

twiddle thumbs in simpler times

hot water relief

Haiku inspired by this Substack post by Nilofer Neubert

Today’s Daily Stoic poem:

For The Hot-Headed Man

Anger is weakness, a mistake
and these traps are easily laid
Set a foundation no one can shake
so your passions cannot be played
