My buddy doesn’t have songs constantly stuck in his head so just to cheer him up, I’ll tell him what’s stuck in my head. He quipped “neat. Your brain has hold music” and I’ve not been the same since.

07.03.2026 02:42 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0“No one ever forgets how to ride a bike” is not quite true. What I figured out in teaching my son to ride a bike: if you forget how to ride a bike, wiggle the handlebars just a smidge and look up/forward til you catch balance. When you look straight down its when you’ll fall.

Good news: I've started a new job in Kyoto as a Tour Coordinator. Been working for a week, and things are good
Bad news: my commute costs me ¥8,400 a week ($56 USD)... and I don't get paid until April 15th. That's five weeks! Plus groceries, rent, etc.
Even $3 can help!
