SSAB - December 10, 2024

Snow again! But not too cold… but how would I know as I never did go outside today! First time touching the drums in over a year! Kinda sucked. Only hit the snare drum and tried out some rudiments. Steve, are you not going back to China? I guess I should get going… though I said the same thing about Canada. Automation for the win! Zapier AI can modify my text input and spit out a decently well-crafted Notion database item sourced from my weekly newsletter. Beautiful! YouTube a go go! 940 subs and LOTS of comments! People sure do have an opinion about Canada these days! Recorded some more shorts for the language vlog, and I’m seeing how it’s a bit of a justification for all this “stuff” I have. Might be time to start going through it. And the Chinese stock sparkle a fizzles! Why why why? No one knows. Donate to the show!
