Shabbat shalom!

Successfully got my eyes tested and ordered a couple of pairs of glasses. Ready in 10 days. Don’t know if they really suit me or if I was swayed by the complements of the person serving me.

Going to attempt to get my eyes checked…

Morning! Day 21 #MusicInMusic #MusicChallenge #MusicSky Vampire Weekend - Step It’s a song about music (‘girl’ = music). Disco, punk… it’s in there. youtu.be/_mDxcDjg9P4?...

25 years ago when we were learning about pharmacogenomics/pharmacogenetics in seminars it still seemed like utter science fiction. This is amazing. www.timesofisrael.com/chatgpt-for-...

So. Much. Disco. #Horror #HorrorSky boxd.it/bM2orf

Unless something changes in the next month, my two top albums of 2025 are: Rosalía - Lux and Geese - Getting Killed and I’d definitely want to see the latter live (I’m sure I couldn’t afford the former). #Music #MusicSky youtu.be/qIol9hig2G4?...

I’d also like it noted that my doctor is super nice, speaks good English (and Chinese) and there’s a rainbow flag sticker at the reception. 😊

Blood test results showed that I’m still alive. 👍

This clinic is playing a music box version of the Raiders of the Lost Ark theme. 🥹

louder for the Useful Idiots™️ in the back

There’s so much bad faith discussion right now that this needs repeating.

Bit hectic this morning. Anyway, off to a clinic to get my blood rest result…. 😬

I don’t know if this would be so amazing to most people but it feels so rare for me to be able to look up and not see buildings or wires.

We had amazing weather today. #Tokyo #Sky

Home! And had the hot bath which was AMAZING.

Woooooooooooo! #MusicSky youtu.be/BOtCBy_FSZE?...

Today’s plan: - teach kung fu this morning - meet up with a mate for lunch/coffee/exploring a park this afternoon - hot bath when I get home 🛁

Doctor: are you sexually active? Me: I’d like to be Doctor: Me: Doctor: Me: no

Still relevant.

Also still relevant.

Wee game - how many of these conspiracy theories have you come across friend-washed on social media?

Well great, our aircon is now making a noise like a distant machine gun every time the air direction blade moves. So now any TV I watch when the aircon is on sounds like a war movie.

Heading to a convenience store to get something for lunch. One of the great things about this country Is that convenience stores actually sell nourishing food and not just crap (they sell that too).

Also still relevant.
