I’ve found the perfect front basket for my bike, for easy camera storage. Last night went out for a test shot ride with Betty & the Ricoh ZF. Perfect portable 35mm for knocking around the streets! Rad riding around for no reason other than to take (film) snapshots. Will see how the shots turn out!

My third day back at gym in the past 7 days. I’ve managed to overcome a massive somatic mental/physical block. I’m focused on feeling stronger and happier “in my body” again after a lot of life stress. Today’s cardio was a great cortisol release 🙃. Posting about it helps to keep myself honest.

California resident tests positive for ‘The Plague’… is sent home to recover 🐀😃

Officials busy themselves by telling people to “avoid rats” 🐀 🐀 www.rnz.co.nz/news/world/5...

The rat spread thing was a myth, as this 2018 study shows it spread through filthy humans www.rnz.co.nz/news/world/3... 🐀🐀🐀

I bought a battery radio off the bad app — and it arrived with a secret message!
