Two crucial points:

1) Madagascar’s President fled the country after an elite military unit joined the uprising.
2) 2nd government overthrown by Gen Z in the last month.

수빈 선생님 gave me a flashcard deck of 50 vocabulary words to memorize for class next week. She said the goal for me should be about 10 words a day.

On my first run through the deck, it turns out I already knew 33 of them 😂

#LanguageLearning can be really fun sometimes!

The X Box Ally thing sure is something. Especially the $1000 version.

My $300 launch-day Steam Deck is still holding up just fine. Even with a few upgrades over the years, it's still not even at half that alternative price point.

Tl;dr - Microsoft v. bad at video things.

Tonight’s #Criterion selection: Rouge.

What an absolute gem this was! The description was so all over the place with a suicide pact between a man and his courtesan and the androgynous melodrama director that I had to check it out.

This #film hits all the feels and is gorgeous. Highly recommend!

Update: It would be great if, after all this time, I didn't feel nervous before these things.

Especially because I know that, even if I screw up tons and suddenly forget to speak English too, in the end I feel accomplished for even trying and making some progress.

Heaven help me.

When your new favorite Korean tutor has unexpected openings in her schedule, you SNATCH those immediately!

See you tomorrow, 수빈 선생님! 🫡

#11: Second Shot at Love

I thought the concept of an alcoholic trying to recover and reconnect with someone was an interesting plot. And it was!

But only for about half the drama.

The rest takes a hard right off a cliff. It's fine, but I can't say I'd recommend it. #KDrama

In a fair world, Androgyny by @garbage.com would be reexamined as an under appreciated pop masterpiece. A sound that has aged like fine wine and could still be a single today, and a message that is as important today as it was in 2001. #Music

Anyone know how I can make a contribution to a commissary account or two or three?

I actually can't complain. This was a hell of a #hockey game!

Back at it tomorrow! #USHL

*Gamblers go up 2-0*

Me: Is this team good?! 🤔

*Gamblers precede to give up five unanswered goals and the goalie gets pulled*

Game #3: No Fagan, one of those lady cops to dish out beatings, and the first of consecutive Blackhawks Fridays.

Let's do it! #Hockey #USHL #GoGamblers

Ruh roh!

I sent my bag in to Tumi for a repair and when I got it back today I had a bonus inside: Someone else's bag and all their information.

Thank GAWD I called and they told me they'll just send UPS to pick it back up.

I feel bad for ol' Ruth, but your tote is on the way to King of Prussia!
