Bought shoes! Aren’t New Balance for old people? $25 for socks? No thanks! Can’t justify the cost, ever? $75 for shorts?? What if I just went to Decathlon? Winnipeg doesn’t have a Decathlon. Realllllyyy? But Uniqlo is about to open!
The Airpods… it’s like that airplane taking off feeling… as if your ears are about to pop but don’t.
Finished The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo, thinking… what if I compiled some books, took a picture, asked ChatGPT or whatever to summarize each of them, and then have Veo 3 create a video based on each of them? Wouldn’t that sort of meet the requirements I had set out so many years ago??
Peptides! Collagen by another name? Should I get into the supplements business? China makes a lot of them!https://www.wsj.com/health/rfk-jr-china-peptides-market-2ce249df-Apparently some were banned in 2023, meaning “compounding pharmacies” can’t make them in the US-many are made in China as injectables (ewww!)-supplements aren’t as regulated
