    What’s that lullaby?

    August 2, 2016 /

    It haunted me during the most memorable scene of the latest Mr. Robot (which is getting too high on itself, or eating its own tail or something). Now I totally want to play this whole album while preparing Christmas dinner for some reason. Meanwhile, it seems Billie Joe and crew are still making music? https://twitter.com/BJAofficial/status/759967717243834368

    “The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn. ”  – Alvin Toffler If Pokemon Go is ultimately not about leveling up or hoarding imaginary kawaii creatures, perhaps it’s about searching for something. And as in life, the most demanding searches are sometimes rewarded with the best results.

    Pokemon Go in Thailand – Day 6

    Nintendo and Niantic have apparently abandoned plans for release in Asia anytime soon, as rumored this week. Sales of lao khao and other paint-stripping beverages skyrocketed when the news broke on IGN: “The team is currently heads down working on the game. We do not have any announced plans for countries beyond New Zealand, Australia, US and Germany at the moment.” -Chris Kramer, Vice President” (for my Thai readers: “heads down” is Farangspeak for “sleeping”)
