Dispatches from Asteroid Hopkins

apply what you learned

Kirby managed to do a somersault in PE. His teacher told us very enthusiastically.
I got him the Shredder's Revenge soundtrack; wonder if he'll be actually listening to it.
We found out, that we both dog the purple on the legs and stomach on the figure of an Enderman1, from a set of Minecraft figures exclusively sold at a certain store here. I dig, how the extremities of the movie figure Enderman has bent limbs.
I'm easy to please.

Had a long talk with two of my rehab colleagues. One seemed to have found the spark again, that made her start working in the field she does, while also pursuing her passion to become a declutter specialist. The other participated in a study on the effect on mediation on multiple sclerosis, and it helps her with managing the pain without medication. I'm happy for them, should ask them for their secret—which probably will be something along the line of "I applied what i learned in rehab."

With summer holdiay season coming to an end, the people i'd run into a burning building to get away from, are returning to work. Heard a mental speech about the glory of driving a motorcycle in a manner that jeopardises the drivers health. Good thing organ donation is an opt-out affair in austria.
Also saw a colleague who returned from his cancer treatment. He opted out of rehab, said he needed to work again, which i'm able to understand, but can't replicate. He sat there, hunched over behind the steering wheel of a transport cart, grey and tired; and it was 6:00 in the morning. After rehab, he could have gone on to retirement…

I learned, that a local beer brewery invested into the production of completely non-alcoholic beer—locally, beer with a volume of less than 0,5% is allowed to be called non-alcoholic. To my surprise, a minute later i learned, that non-alcoholic beer sells better than non-non-alcoholic. Brewery officials are blaming the deposit payment on beverage cans, except for the company that invested into the 0.0% method, who named the elephant in the room, it's due to demographic change. I wonder how long it'll take until those numbers change again, with all the crisis going on around the globe, i anticipated people practically destroying alcoholic beverage production.

Now that we could reduce the amount of money we're handing over the Walt Disney Cooperation, i've ordered the Tron 4k home releases…
