Slowly rolling out memories from our April Yokohama and Kichijoji trip. Unplanned morning walks to a local temple, shrine or park brought into focus the beauty right in front of us and around the next corner. So fun just getting lost

As a former (brief) UW music student who changed majors I'm hungry to know the best current jazz books for possible returning adult music majors. Been digging Paul Berliner's Thinking in Jazz and Jerry Coker's books. Would love related suggestions

Salsa Saturdays 7--9 at SeaMonster Lounge are always burning! Stellar band tonight with Carlos Cascante on the mic, Julio Juaregui on keys, and Dean Schmidt's one of my favorite bassists.
Stealing and sharing from a surgical log-in-log-out FB visit :D

On FB I see the same circle of friends liking posts only, out of a 1,400+ sized list. There's got to be an algorithmic hole Zuckerberg drops anti-Trumpers into, given his public admonishment of SJW's on FB since he went hardcore Trump fluffer. Thankfully my Threads will die soon.

The problem being of course, armed justice doesn’t always work for the vulnerable… e.g., the Iowa sex trafficking victim ordered to pay $150K

It’s anecdotal, but there are plenty of hard fact cases where women defended themselves this way, seen with searches like “women shoots rapist”

Our neighbor works at NOAA tracking fish diseases to sustain their lives and ours, ensuring a safe and sustainable food source. The weather and maritime tracking implications are even more immediately impactful.

LogBoom in Kenmore, one of my favorite sunset destinations.
Typically have “YuYu no Nihongo” Japanese podcast or jazz in the earbuds.
Staying just as informed on world events via BlueSky as I would on Meta, minus a lot of hyperbolic hot takes. Small business friends already feeling the tariffs

Been building distance using elements of IWT (Interval Walking Training, 3min fast walk + 3min slow walk) & monitoring heart. Basically it’s walking for impatient people :D
Found to show positive impacts on cardio, blood sugar & pressure. Pushed my max last Sunday

When I log back into FB next week it'll be "log in, log out" like checking email. And maybe try to get jailed again. It's hard to fully ditch because of the decade of building local community with musicians and others, but hoping more make it over here.
