Twitter was pretty much my only social media (other than that *all* media are social). Feel like I'm done here. ✌️🙏👏

Big Wave Bay. A beautiful Hong Kong beach with great surf at this time of year

Who are the people who sit in committees and propose these regulations. What possible motivations drive them to make these insane laws which inhibit physical activity and damage population health.

Apparently, graduate students in HK think that officials can demand nudes... Hard to believe, but I guess?

@AskYatharth Plus ballot order effects: the top candidate gets a measurable small bump. Different places handle differently (random, or random by county, etc.). At that time Republican always went first on FL ballots and always got the bump (small but much larger than the win).

@Jay_Watt Streisand effect? Maybe they read that Halloween celebrations are not allowed across the boundary? 😅 https://t.co/vs4hvjDz0A

I used to *rent* CDs when I lived in Japan (Tsutaya!), and I imported them with Japanese track info, still enjoy having those... Here's your katakana kuiz!

@tripperhead I'm of the age to feel this guy hightailing it to the mainland has real OJ-Bronco-chase energy.

@ChefMiew @kjoules Getting someone famous to drop by commencement and hobnob with donors, mostly, and get some credit by association.

@tripperhead We had a "misdo" in our neighbourhood when we lived in Japan, and there was always a morning group of old uncles (oji-san there) hanging out and solving the problems of the world, one donut and coffee at a time. Good memories! Let's see how they fare in HK.

HK Economy 2024. Saturday night and not a single skill crane in use (Hung Hom MTR Station).

Herbie Hancock group was great, but West Kowloon production team 👎👎 Bass amp not in the house sound for most of the night, cameras typically 30 seconds behind the action, band next door at the fest too loud... hope they learn.

@ArtMaterialist @UrbanAdler @tripperhead 10 year visa still valid if you have another passport, but you need to bring both when you cross.

@wyntonmarsalis @jazzdotorg Heard you all last night in HK and it was amazing! I used to play back in the 90s with Vince in Tallahassee at Waterworks—please tell him thanks for the great show and the whistling 🔥
