What's a good place to buy a 1-2 TB external HDD (preferably SSD) for MacBook backups? Looking for something reliable and decently priced. Recommendations for stores or online options ?. Thanks 🙂

Thank you very much 😉

I do 4 personal trainer sessions a week.

Even though I could in fact just do sit-ups for free at home. As poor people here have well meaningly pointed out. Over and over again. It's worth it to have someone else make a program for me and track it for me.

I write a minimum 1,000 words a day.

I have 3 stories about the Soi I live on done. Each one is a bit better than the last. I need 10 stories to put up on a Substack page. I have no delusions about being published.

I like to socialize -so much that I had to kill tinder because possible internet people were crowding out people I meet/know in real life. If I get into a relationship, I'll cut back, since I won't want to cut back on my other stuff.

When I get back from Laos and Myanmar, I want to give Thai language 2 hours a day. And I average a book about every 10 days.

I'm busy all day, every day. I am really grateful for that.

Read.

You can self-publish and put them up on Amazon.

But in this day and age, you also need a social media presence to advertise yourself or not many people will know who you are.

If you want to get attention, put yourself out there.

Is you are on social media, you can plug your stories.

You cannot just do sit ups as there are many muscle groups to develop.

Unless you are just doing it to boost metabolism.

Yeah, I do many kinds of exercise. The sub stack is just so people who know me can read my stuff for laughs

Yeah, I've just extended my 25km morning ride to 35km.

Not just Saturday, but every day it isn't raining.

Up to Mae Kruang dam.

Cycling past loads of large animals now .........

Had to stop for a herd of buffalo yesterday, at least 20.

Does an electric bike still count as cycling?
