The birth (or death) of a relative, the release of a new program, game, series, movie, the date you were dreaming about, could be anything

    I think a lot of the worst people on earth are getting pretty old and grey, so it’ll be fun to watch the world turn as they fall off.

    Yeaha, I am looking for death. Feel so excited.

    If you wonder if I am seeking death, no I am not.

    My life is a game. I would try my best, survive as long as possible, earn as much as achievement.

    Then after that, I will look at my scoreboard.

    I hope next run, I have enough score to unlock more comfortable birthright.

        I am doing speed run, but a speed long run. Lifetime so short. I want to do more, suffer more. I want to earn as much as possible per run.

        I know, i remember, each run come with a cost. Dunno what is the cost. Must make most of each run.

    Very lame of me, but I’m really looking forward to the Conservatives losing the next British General Election.

      Not from the UK but excited for that too. Asking just out of curiosty because I’m not too informed on the matter, do you really like the labour program or just happy to see conservatives kicked out?

      Also I was thinking we should stop calling them conservatives and start calling them retrogrades since (at least in my country) they want to strip people of acquired rights making us go back in time.

        I am actually excited for the Labour programme, though I realise I’m in the minority! The lack of enthusiasm is mainly because people have so little faith things will actually get better and partly because Labour haven’t always been great at communicating why they’ve made (IMO necessary) changes to their policies.

        Agree with you about conservatives, but that has always been the problem with conservatism, unfortunately.

    I feel bad it’s so materialistic but I’m stoked that the new model of the Dirtywave M8 music tracker is shipping this week or next. In the past couple years that single device has improved my music output immensely, and the user community on its Discord is ridiculously friendly and helpful.

    The new model isn’t a radical update, but the new quality of life features plus the confidence that I will use it constantly really has me excited to continue my journey. For me it’s like a toy that’s always fun to play with, surprisingly deep, and after I play for a while I’ve accidentally created something. It’s cut down on my doom scrolling and social media consumption as well. For me, that’s money well spent.

    By Q1 2025, I should have a full implant-supported denture, replacing my top teeth. I’ve had a partial for almost a year now, as I fussed around, trying to decide how to proceed. I’ll be very glad to be done with this phase.

    Then we’ll deal with the bottom ones…

        French was my father’s first language so even though we were an English-first home, I had an excellent study buddy when I started studying French in middle and highschool. I was nearly proficient by age 18 but lost it once life took over. Fast forward 20 years and I wanted to make sure my child had the opportunity to speak with her pépère in his native language.

        So I spent 6 months mainlining Learn French and specifically Québec TikTok and fought like hell to rewire those old, decrepit neural pathways. You can get access to an incredible wealth of native content in manageable bites all tagged and categorized for free

        Ça marche!

      No, these children aren’t French. They’re American!

      In all seriousness though, that’s amazing! I wish I knew another language.

    I went clothes shopping in the US today and the Memorial Day sales and coupons meant I really cleaned up. I am looking through my piles of clothes and shoes like a rapper rolling around on a bed of cash or something.

    Taking my car to the track for the first time. My son is going to track it with me, should be a blast!

    Getting the rear brakes and track oil (based on what Chevy recommends for track use) next week and then I’ll schedule it!

    Going to Australia in a week, get immersed in their culture for two weeks, and getting to snorkel the Great Barrier Reef during my time there! All with my wife and 10 yo son. It’s going to be so great!
