Accidentally made a beat that goes hard as shit. I sometimes forget my goals of classical piano, and instead, make patches and play a bunch of things after jamming on the bass.

Fun fact. Tokyo has the best Northern Indian food we've ever had, and we are very much snobs and spoiled for quality when it comes to Shahi korma and Biryani. Also the nicest man ever managing the busiest restaurant and chatting with us at the same time. 10/10. Bombay Sizzlers in Tokyo

We are safely in Kamakura, which is where we imagined moving to one day... And it already feels like home. I've never been more captivated. The sun came out for us too. Hopefully Fuji-san will appear before the day is through.

Was helping a friend put up her campaign signs yesterday, and we were the first out it appeared. Some dude saw what I was doing, pulled over, and put up his own sign... This dude put "Your Conservative Choice" on his sign bigger than his name. I couldn't hold in my laugh beside him.

Introspective thoughts from the 38+ year old professional creative: Sometimes you're the artist and sometimes the brush. Be aware which you are for every project. I get upset sometimes. I think my clients are wrong all the time, and tell them that so we can do better

"Conservative" has become slang for "Con-artist" up here. They are not the same as even the Harper generation, they're all power hungry populist cucks who don't give a fuck about anything but themselves.... It is enjoyable to watch them cannibalize each other though.

Was petting little Gordon Ramsay (cat) and he decided to attack me with all his limbs and teeth at once. He tried a second time before realizing his attacks are futile, and he succumbed to pets and purrs. Little fella tried to overthrow his government though (me in this case). I'm so proud.

The greatest narrative of modern times is the relatively new obsession with "generational wealth". Those who care most about it are the ones making our planet less habitable by the day and ensuring their 50 children have no future. Maybe the children are their future food source.

Historic opioid settlements were supposed to be a lifeline for underserved communities. But much of that money is flowing to law enforcement.

Took five minutes to read about the new stupid thing the stupid man has stupided. We are entitled. We expect our government to act with compassion, empathy, and try to do what's best for everyone instead of a select few. We try to find the middle ground that benefits the country, not ourselves.
