Leaving a mixed 2025 on a high: made my first home-made Ramen, #GlutenFree & #Vegan. No photo because too tasty.

Looking back on 9 yrs of intense commons janitoring, on unthankful chores of #community work to keep them healthy and safe, and all my weaving-in-public, outreach for #connecting #people. It gave me deeper insight.

"법 규정을 엄격하게 해석하면 휴게시간을 업무 시작 전이나 종료 후에 부여하는 것을 인정하지 않는다. 즉 4시간 근무를 마친 직후 퇴근하는 것은 '근로시간 도중'에 휴게를 준 것이 아니므로 위법이 되는 셈이다."

Pokud je člověk schopen dobrých úmyslů, leží před ním život jako veliká, nevyzkoušená a slibná možnost. Panebože, jaké věci bych napsal, kdybych počal vstávat v šest hodin ráno!
A kdybych nadto čtvrt hodiny cvičil
a koupal se ve studené vodě
a přitom četl Marka Aurelia
a dvě hodiny denně se vzdělával
a místo čtení novin truhlařil nebo okopával zahrádku
a naučil se hrát na harmoniku
a denně běhal pár hodin po polích
a trochu se ponořil do východní filozofie
a chodil mezi lid
a osvojil si základy národního hospodářství
a četl v originále Platóna
[...]
a odpovídal ihned na všechny dopisy
a denně několik hodin rozjímal o velikých věcech člověka
a vyvinul nějakou rozsáhlou činnost ve prospěch všech bližních
a poznal všechno, co má člověk znát,
a přitom nepromařil ani minutu času.
– Neboť to vše a ještě mnoho jiného je v mých dobrých úmyslech. Život je nesmírně a nevyčerpatelně bohat pro naše dobré úmysly.
저도, 읽어주시는 여러분도 잘 풀리는 새 해 되길 빕니다. 올 한 해도 즐겁게 보내요. 😁

I watched a crime drama, the police was searching the murderer's house. I noticed that the murderer has many different terrarium in their house and now I wish wish that I have that many fish tanks too. Is this weird 😅
My 7-year-old is on the spectrum and is a HUUGE fan of trains, specifically the New York City subway system.
Lately, he's feeling different from the other kids at school, none of whom love trains.
If that sounds like a kid you know, maybe they can become pen pals with my little guy.
DMs open if you're interested.

European tech companies should demand stronger regulation, especially on privacy!
Why? Because it would give them an advantage over their US-based competitors, who are neither willing nor able to operate under strict rules.
That's why the European Commission's Digital Omnibus package is such a bad idea. Weak regulation doesn't create a level playing field for all. It benefits the big and powerful players more than anyone else!

Los Angeles is in desperate need of 100s of roundabouts to replace the rarely acknowledged stop signs. Spouse informed me that she actually encountered a roundabout in Los Angeles yesterday. Not sure I ever have.
Incredulous, I tracked it down on google maps, and it's a paint-by-numbers beauty. You simply could never go wrong here at what I assume must be some Angelenos first ever roundabout.
