Vietnam continues its hot streak of owning Americans
Donald Trump announces his a "trade deal" with Vietnam, which increases taxes on American consumers while decreasing taxes on Vietnamese consumers.

The zero-rate tariff offer in Vietnam was proposed on April 4. He's essentially done nothing in 3 months.

A true genius at work. The art of the deal.

Thanks to the brilliant @fossiliam.bsky.social for giving me just enough clues that I could find the first three. Once I'd found those, I started seeing others and was pretty excited to be able to discover my own!

Remember to stay hydrated on hot days…even if your method of staying hydrated is hardly efficient.

*Unsolicited Advice Klaxon*

Reminder to shut every window and close every door during the day time.

We have an indoor-outdoor thermometer & we close everything down when the two temps equalise (~9am atm)

We open everything again in the evening when outside drops back to equalisation point.

This is beyond horrific.
Is that what LFI means? The government has been bought?

We just lost a pub quiz because the quiz host thought (and still thinks) a seal is a 'land mammal' 🌊 🦭

Look I have zero excuses for this, but the idea popped into my head and now it's in your head, sorry

Fun fact: if you're buying from a creator on etsy, you can reduce their etsy selling fees from 6.5% to 2.5% by ordering via 'shopname.etsy.com' instead of 'etsy.com/shopname' or searching from the main site. It costs you the same but the creator makes more

The mood in LA is anxious/devastated/exhausted/ braced for more.

It's NOT all rich people. Most are artists who scraped together a down payment. And the fire has leveled Altadena, a historically Black tight-knit community.

Also most people are up for helping you use equipment and if there's staff there then don't feel afraid to ask them for assistance with understanding which machines to use and how to use them (and the free weights too)
First time in the gym can be intimidating. I always suggest seeking out a class to learn the basics if yours offers one, especially if you feel very, "I have no effing clue what I'm doing." If you feel nervous that people are watching you or judging you, they're not. We all started somewhere.

Word of the Day is one I keep posting at the end of the year, hoping its time will come.

‘Respair’, from the 16th century, is fresh hope, and a recovery from despair.

Here’s to a few drops of respair in 2025.

As we head into 2025, I'll be sharing 25 MEDICAL HISTORY OBJECTS starting with...

#1) 5,000-year-old prosthetic eye made of bitumen paste with lines radiating out from iris. Worn by a 6’ tall woman (possibly a priestess), found near the city of Zabol in Iran. The eye would have been painted gold.

2025 bringing us Yellowjackets, Wednesday, Stranger Things finale, Last of Us, and a bunch of others I'm forgetting. Films are looking awfully sequel-y and unoriginal but I will be happy to be proven wrong 🎥

Art vs artist 2024 💖

Twas a great year! Not only did I rediscover my love for traditional painting, but I also did a lot of things this year that I was too anxious to try in the past! :D
