      I like this Japanese artist that hand paints vintage American clothes. He turns things such as vintage hunting jackets into “animal appreciation” jackets using motifs that celebrate animals. Some of his stuff is currently up for sale at Maiden's Shop in Tokyo.

      Meanwhile TikTok is showing me episodes of a vertical AI-generated microdrama called My Rescue Dog Became My Boyfriend. That's *literally* the dog stars.

      One Medical isn’t worth its annual fee post Amazon acquisition. They don’t get costs covered by insurance, have 20 minute annual health exams, and can’t schedule appointments until weeks out.
      
      I don’t think they understand their value add. If I want disorganized care, I can go to any doctor

      UGH. What a day. Thanks to friends for coming through. I’m used to being a medical mom, but the behavior issues are new and really taking a toll.
      Let’s focus on my haircut instead. 😅
