Wondering if I should do the first few videos over again to try and improve the production quality a little or just pick up where I left off 🤔🤷‍♀️

Only an hour outside Detroit -> customs + immigration -> recheck luggage + tsa -> flight to Orlando + baggage claim + uber

Away from finally being home!! Have the next 3 days off then 2 days in office then 2 weeks off then possibly another 60 days in Singapore (TBD)

I haggled my butt off and either got genuine Chinese stuff at a bargain or genuine Chinese knockoff stuff at a small markup

Either way successful morning I think lmao 🤣

Flying Singapore to Shanghai tonight, Shanghai to Orlando tomorrow night.

But my flight out of Singapore is delayed -3 hours- so now I won’t get to Shanghai until *3am* 😭😭😭

Very glad I booked a room attached to the airport as everything else’ll be shutdown.

in the 19 months I've been in my current role I've been away from home for 10 months... >50% travel for that long is a *lot* of travel for a role that isn't explicitly a field position

Do you think when Elphaba and Fiyero get into a fight she's ever like "oh here we go... another straw man argument"

EPIC RIDE is now on Peacock. It’s an incredibly well made documentary series showing interesting behind the scenes clips during the last phases of construction, mixed with storytelling of the history of Universal Parks. I enjoy in-depth backstory, but want more behind the scenes!

Tonight was the Singapore premiere of Wicked, last stop for the cast's international tour.

Got to see the cast pretty up close, but not close enough to interact (couldn't camp out for it as it was a work day)

got some video and pictures though (will share once I transfer them off my work phone)

In Singapore, with a couple coworkers doing a thing. One is set to fly home in a couple weeks so I asked "has there been any talk of contingency plans if the FAA flight reductions ramp up/shutdowns start to happen like they're threatening"

They didn't even know anything was happening...

Finally got to see Demon Slayer - Infinity Castle on the big screen and it was SO worth it.

Also crossed Singapore Hard Rock off my list (I've been to ~25% of all the locations in the world now)

1+2: *Watch a third guy presumably time travel*

1: When do you think we’ll see him again?

2: *Sips beer* Never. He’s Super dead

1: What? How can you know that.

2: He travelled through TIME

1: And? It’s purely theoretical, we don’t know.

2: Key word being TIME. Not Space.

Digging Singapore, it's hot & humid AF and expensive $$, but aside from that the vibes are good.

It feels like "British Hawaii" in a sense. (both the pros and cons that implies)

Saw my shadow on the way to the airport so now it’s 6 more weeks of site time 😭

Shanghai -> Singapore

At the rate I’m ticking boxes I might have to figure out where to put Asia along side Europe & US on my legs 😅

I'm actually struggling a bit with the finale of cloudward, ho!

They've always stretched things mechanically but brennan absolutely twisted himself in knots to get the dice to even vaguely cooperate with the outcome they wanted.

the gameplay felt starkly like a put-on

Y'all are a bunch of sourpusses... finally got to see Tron: Ares now that it's out in China

while it wasn't amazing and definitely had some cringy bits in the mix overall it was nowhere near as awful as everybody was making it sound...

I enjoyed it quite a bit but do wish it had been better...

Remember folks. The original bluesky ethos by us bluesky elders (apparently I count?) is block and move on.

Don't quote dunk, don't pick fights.
Block, and move on.

This is what made this site unpalatable to the right early on, and we can continue to make it unpalatable to them.

I have the Clue 'counting the bullets' dialogue and the safeword from Eurotrip in my phone.

Obviously the most critical of shortcuts
don't forget that text replacements are extremely useful, and even sync between iOS and macOS! very handy:
