Lumpy Brilliance – MARKOBI
After a few viewings, I’ve come to the conclusion that even his choice of shirt was painstakingly chosen.

AI is watching.
I plugged in a phrase from my last post, “I had my first ever birthday on an airplane”, and the NightCafe AI spit out this: I mean, it’s kind of eerie, right? Compare it to the photos on my previous post.

Dreamliner Birthday
On our trip to the states last month, I had my first ever birthday on an airplane. It might have been my longest birthday ever because of the time difference (UTC +7 to UTC -7), although I didn’t even really think about it until a couple of flight attendants came up and started asking about my birthday – one in English, and one in Japanese. I was really surprised at first, but it ended up being very dope. Apparently, Nam had asked ANA to do something after Mina and I had checked in and went through the first security checkpoint at Suvarnabhumi. Mina knew about it since Nam had messaged…

Boeing 787 Window Shades

Both Kids Now Studying Overseas
I didn’t post here for the entire trip and actually didn’t do a lot of things I normally do… Some of them I just may never do again. We have new priorities and our lives are in a state of flux – preparing for a big move back home, etc. – and we are living each day with the immediate goal of joining our family together again. Standing in our way is a long list of big things like selling our house, getting Nam’s green card, finding new jobs, and transitioning to new cultures and lifestyles again… Adventure awaits!

I found the best film by accident.
This video reminds me of my own car adventures… I’ve tried looking in Japan and Thailand, but maybe heaven for me is in the bush?

Jointly-owned Copyrights
This is interesting: Several startups believe that web3 technologies will upend how authors make a living—and how we define who owns a story. What if you could own a stake in Harry Potter? What if the book series functioned like a publicly traded company where individuals could “buy stock” in it, and as the franchise grows, those “stocks” become more valuable? If this were the case, someone who purchased just three percent of Harry Potter back when there was only one book would be a billionaire now. Just imagine how that would affect the reading experience. Suddenly a trip to Barnes & Noble becomes an investment opportunity. Early readers could spot “the…
