been noted as someone who is mistrustful about AI at work but considering the stakes, isn't it a normal concern to be sceptical about speeding ahead with the notion of "productivity" and not the safeguards as to what could go wrong?

Ideally I would like to be well off enough to own all the english and mandarin e book readers I am interested in and buy duplicate copies of whatever authors and books I like on each platform.

Just when I thought I was finally getting more work life balance (finally remembering that some of the nonsense at the workplace is really not my load to bear plus my steam library calling out to me), someone reminded me that it's time to start job hunting again...

Been a relatively interesting 2025 for me. The job change finally happened but still unsure if I'm suited for it in the long run. Also think I have been caught up in too much paltry work drama and am now musing on how to take steps back yet maintaining enough presence to keep the remuneration?

Musing with some teammates earlier this week that it's almost the end of the year but thanks to work weirdness, everything just got more harried rather then winding down. Feels like some bad management trying to justify themselves and the grunts (us) getting the brunt of it (as usual)?

Out of all the slight upheavals in life that have happened to me this year, (industry-job change, having to move quite suddenly, etc) the most unexpected so far has been the "felt something for someone in the romantic sense after X+ years"? Pretty unsettling but also tiring in ways.

最近有了喜歡的人不過察覺的同時也理解這是個不會有結果的暗戀這種現實的殘酷隨著戀愛感一起到來真是有點難以言喻的感覺 (不過跟好友提起好友只欣慰我還是對人有興趣- 平時的我到底是表現得都多厭世w)

being so ridiculously busy at work that time flies is good to an extent. a lot less errant thoughts in my mind. what becomes less great is not having the time or energy to do any other stuff. the only hobby i had for these past months was reading gl web novels on the subway to and from work...

it's a really weird thing. have a friend who's married to a japanese person and been there for over a decade but still constantly uses it in conversation. we've had this debate forever but they insist their partner and people around don't think it's a slur and just keep using it.

#30 Bookshops & Bonedust by by Travis Baldree. The sequel and prequel to Legends & Lattes which centered about a book stores (another object close to my heart) and it was a really lovely and chill read on the train to and fro work. Looking forward to the next in the series!

If you are sufficiently racist, or just bad at your job, or usually both, you can produce a dataset that tells you all sorts of nonsense in a quantitative manner. That doesn't make it true. Then you feed that dataset into a robot. Guess what, you made a racist robot.

one can acknowledge a piece of work or artiste having really impacted you in the past but you can also 100% also stop supporting the abhorrent being(s) going forward. (Also don't quite agree with deeming or crediting one person/work to being the source of your entire identity but to each their own.)

Been a weird week receiving not so great news from different friends. Ended up spending most of it working from home due to a weird cough-cold but there's just still so much fatigue. Know it's likely just the illness, but work and life just feels extremely frustrating and bleak.

#29 Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree. A gentle, cozy read about a female orc who decides to give up her bounty-hunting life, settle down and open a cafe to sell coffee. (Truly the dream!) Was an easy fun read and am looking forward to more in the series~

Book cover of Legends & Lattes, featuring a muscular female orc at a counter preparing a drink while beside her is a succubus, holding a plate of pastries. Both are facing the reader, almost like welcoming them to their cafe for a coffee and a pastry.

feel extremely weird as the main person peeved about younger workmate being late to presentation meetings with clients. is this some new acceptable bar of behaviour? to saunter in late without an apology or explanation? also apparently regular behaviour for said person and it's just shrugged off?

for ebooks in traditional mandarin, i normally just go to www.books.com.tw but they only allow you to do it via their app, so you need a tablet or web browser to access it. There's also Readmoo but it caters to their specific e-reader called mooInk (readmoo.com)

The bat-eared fox (Otocyon megalotis) uses its large ears for thermoregulation on the African savannah. Predominantly insectivorous, 90% of their diet is harvester termites. They're nocturnal, hunting primarily by sound. Males raise the cubs while females hunt. (📷: Yathin S Krishnappa)

Bat-eared fox in the Etosha National Park. Descriptively, they look like tiny coyotes with fluffy light grey fur, darker face and dark eyes set close together, and it's all dominated by giant ears twice the height of the face. This one stands in a flat grassland area.

seems to be a new wave of flu (or something like it) making the rounds locally. honestly hard to tell if it's just the normal flu, covid, or maybe even the new HMPV thingy, so probably going to be masking up a lot more...
