Nothing to see here - except maybe food.. and music.. and random thoughts on finance .. and investing.
Honestly folks, if my brokerage allow me to short stocks, I would so short TSLA (Tesla). It's almost like free money.

On another note - Xfer just released Serum 2 virtual instrument, a standard plugin used by almost all EDM producers. It has been 11 years since version 1 was released.

Had to drop off my car to the repair shop. For some reason the passenger side foot well is filled with water. I think the door is leaking from the rain, but regardless, I have a mobile swimming pool in my car now.

shee.. even with best intentions, getting up at 6am, trying to get things started - all i did was clear my emails and work with Wix tech support on an issue in response to an email, and it's already 11am and I haven't achieve anything.

I love this channel call "How Money Works". Here's something you might be interested in watching, it's only 15 mins. TLDR - Americans love buying shit they can't afford, but it would be scarier if they stop buying.

I'm at the "jet lag is hell" stage of the journey. Traveling east has always been horrendous to adjust to, esp as I get older.

One final image before I'm done with Taiwan - rare pix of me with cherry blossoms at Yang Ming Shan. The bloom isn't as full this year since we had a terrible cold snap that killed all the flowers. Cherry blossoms are pretty fragile like that.

Farm to table is so overrated. You have to climb up the mountain, pull the vegetable out of the ground, strip it, clean it, cook it...

'My So-Called Life' at 30: How a short-lived show became a ’90s pop culture touchstone
Thirty years after its short but memorable run on ABC, it is widely regarded as a miraculous one-season wonder that captures the era’s competing strains of irony and earnestness.

Not sure why I find this fascinating but they tag imprinted all the eggs for tracking purposes (I assume)

It's insane how much effort I make to avoid political news. Every time I stumble upon political news, I get anxious, worried and is pessimistic about the future. So for my mental health, I avoid it as much as possible. Show me cat videos! Or in my case - guinea pig vids of them squeaking!
