This girl is a literal hamburgler and she’s #sorryNotSorry.
She’s certain that plate of hamburgers on the counter was left there just for her. #serendipity

I was having some issues with the man who was doing Mom's taxes today because he wasn't really listening to my questions for clarity. He kept interrupting me, giving answers that I wasn't asking about. I was talking to Mom in Teochew & relaying some of her questions to him too. One Asian woman overheard everything. She came out to help us out & she put the man in his place 🙏
It was a senior tax preparer & she's the office manager too. I found out, serendipitously, that she's a #Gaginang - fellow #Teochew person! Meeting another Teochew person who speaks the language, in Victoria, is like finding a unicorn - it's very rare! The last time I found another Teochew in the public wilds was over 30 years ago!
Mom & I loved talking to her in our mutually shared language. It turns out that she's also a refugee from South Vietnam & her family has some roots near my Mom's village too. Amazing serendipity!
I'm so happy to meet & befriend Teochew person, today! I'm beaming with happy feelings 🥰
*She's a strong Teochew with tiger-like energy, when dealing with misogynists too. Most Teochew women take no shit from misogynists.
Mom was just as happy & talked to our new friend in Teochew too.
Not such a low quality fact then…
A experimentar o que é ao mesmo tempo um pesadelo para a privacidade e um auxiliar digital promissor - smartglasses da meta e da asus; ou como disse com imensa piada uma aluna minha, "os óculos perfeitos para tarados"...
Só a experimentar, que é brinquedo caro.
Here’s the Four Leaf Clover Beret I made for Serendipity!
I couldn't find a glossary of #serendipity terms, so I wrote one

A quotation from Eleanor Roosevelt
One thing life has taught me: if you are interested, you never have to look for new interests. They come to you. They will gravitate as automatically as the needle to the north. Somehow, it is unnecessary, in any cold-blooded sense, to sit down and put your head in your hands and plan them. All you need to do is to be curious, receptive, eager for experience. And there’s one strange thing: when you are genuinely interested in one thing, it will always lead to something else.Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962) First Lady of the US (1933–1945), politician, diplomat, activist
You Learn by Living, ch. 1 “Learning to Learn” (1960)

Auszug aus den Show-Notes:
Der elfte „jazzklub“ fand pünktlich zu Thomas Wright „Fats“ Wallers 121. Geburtstag statt.
Wir wissen das von Bastian Duncker, der durch die Songs des Abends moderierte und – unter anderem – auch eine Anekdote zum Besten gab, die aus der Zeit der Prohibition stammt und Al Capone mit Fats Waller aufs Tragikomischste verbindet...
