I went to Costco yesterday to stock up. The tariff thing has me remembering toilet paper was a premium during COVID, plus I was hoping to get ahead of big price increases.
I’m not sure I succeeded. My usual monthly bill was between $300-400. Yesterday I walked out at $750. Yikes!

I find that avoiding the news helps bring some peace back into my life. Not being immersed in the culture wars every waking moment has raised my well being.

And I saw Dead & Co at The Sphere. It presents a conundrum. Stage-side floor passes are coveted (and I scored a prime spot) but the visuals, which flow back over your head and the shear size of the display surface has me craning my head back for half the show.

I’m starting to get zen with my food. It’s making each meal a potential discovery but also means that the experience is not easily replicable with a recipe.

Big events (like Covid) have lingering effects on my behavior. Everyone has probably experienced trying to find that thing that used to be readily available when you want some. For me that's

I am pathologically opposed to recipes. Taking whatever is available and making a dish that's never seen the light of day, and never will again, is a unique act of creation.

Twitter has gotten so bad but it looks like the worst is yet to come. I'm weaning myself off but a couple of streams of real time information on markets is hard to replicate.
