    Is TikTok banned yet? Big movement to XiaoHongShu, or at least some comments about the platform being better than FB and Insta. Those other platforms won’t be going away any time soon, though, cause they can monetize, XHS doesn’t. Off to the Military Museum - not bad. Lots of big equipment, no cafe or many places to sit down. What did we learn? China got invaded a bunch of times. Spent most of the day editing videos! Morning workout: -25 minutes on the bike -then four rounds of: kettle bell walks, hip adduction and abduction, single leg hamstring curls dips, pull ups. Afternoon: 6.51 km in 44.38, then four rounds of 40 double under, 10 bench jumps, 5 one arm push ups each side, 5 assisted pistol squats each side. Russian done: 20 minutes reading, 16 minutes conjugating, 30 minutes listening. Getting easier. Chinese: only podcast listening.

    Trying out the mic with the QuickTime, but the Notes application won’t use the Shure MV7+ as input. How did it all sound yesterday? This new MacBook is rather bass-y. Workout in, but barely! 7.02km in 1 hr 6 min 56 sec. 54 pull ups total, double that for push ups, triple for squats. Felt rough the entire time… like just slow. No deadlifts as I had an idea… to go to Tianjin, but then I realized I had no room on my cameras. Sooo… had to transfer footage. But this does go along the lines of my adventure travel videos. Thinking… what else could I do? Why Tianjin? Well, the latest vlog I posted, someone suggested I should just get on the train and go somewhere. Tianjin’s the closest. Reading DuZhe 读者, a magazine for students or young people. I guess it’s one of those “wholesome” publications that tries to instil good ideas in people’s heads rather than others (eg, comics).  Chinese stocks sure not moving the way I thought they would back in December. Gold is up but is still in a downtrend. Donate to the show!

    Have you stopped writing 2024 yet? Very quiet in Beijing these days. Are schools out already? Working on a cheat sheet for Mandarin, is it okay to teach Mandarin Chinese? New language vlog up: Time for a change? - All about considering a job change… but does that mean a change of country, too? Here’s the difference of jet lag: -in Canada, you fall asleep at 8pm but there’s no more real “business” to be done at that time other than see some people, who could probably meet earlier in the day. -in China, if I fall asleep at 8pm then that takes out all the evening chatter that can’t be done during the work day. Need to test out this import/export vlog idea, shall I take a trip? Yiwu? Wenzhou? Guangzhou (again?) Off to Harbin in a couple weeks for the ice show. Donate to the show!
