「回魂計」這麼爛，真的對不起詐騙園區的受害者。製作團隊該去閉門思過，別回來拍什麼三部曲了。第一季拍不明白，再多兩季也只是爛上加爛。
報仇爽劇想爽想加入超自然元素，去看「厄舍府的崩塌」就好。想看中年女星飆演技，就看Carla Gugino出演的渡鴉復仇女神。這劇拿舒淇李心潔當賣點，結果只讓人為她倆心疼，太浪費了。

6 years today the first COVID case was identified in a man in Wuhan marking the beginning of a global pandemic that changed the world. We are way less prepared today to face another pandemic than we were back then. This fact makes me sad.

日本超级巨星滨崎步(浜崎あゆみ或濱崎步), 这位“流行天后”在Instagram宣布，原定11月29日举行的上海演唱会因今晨收到“要求”取消演出而被迫紧急叫停 ——滨崎步及其团队数日前已抵达上海，由中日两国组成的200人团队耗时5天搭建的舞台现需全部拆除。
据最新报道，尽管原定举行的这场演出已被中国当局强制取消，但滨崎步还是在上海的演出场地进行了一场没有观众的完整演唱会，并将其录制下来供粉丝观看。

而真正的香港屋苑維修合約牽涉的圍標龐大利益甚至政治分贓，以及在香港各級議會“理順選舉”之後對屋苑維修合約透明度的弱化，就不是那麼方便說的了。

In 1924, Calvin Coolidge's 16-yr-old son played tennis on the White House grounds w/o wearing socks. He got a blister and was dead from infection a week later.
This is unthinkable today—which is why I wrote this series. Cuz the systems that save us from this kind of fate are in urgent need of care.

For a yr, I've been working on a series for The New Atlantis about the vast systems that underlie our lives. Our ancestors built them up over decades to fend off hunger, thirst, darkness and disease. But too few of us know about them—and they're all at risk. The conclusion is now available online:
Why We Are Better Off Than a Century Ago
Our ancestors built grand public systems to conquer hunger, thirst, darkness, and squalor. That progress can be lost if we forget it.

週末忽然間八年齡的老舊iPad Pro不能播放經濟學人app的audio podcast了，還有幾個其他音頻app也不能播放，非常空虛🫣束手無策，差點一衝動下單買個新的。
我的iPad使用需求很有限，實在懶得買新的，拖著沒動手。結果重新昨天啟動一下又都好了😤🥲 省了好幾百鎊…
教訓：買新硬件前要嘗試重啟，很可能就不用買了。

Well there’s still NHS WHO plus other government public health agencies such as Canada and Australia and the EU. Americans need to grow a perspective that’s less US centric.
For the first time in my career, I can’t tell people to trust what the CDC website says. And that is an incredibly sad and devastating place for this country to be.
CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”
