Replaced the front wheel bearing on my car today... I am a mechanic by necessity, not by choice. Can't afford garage prices, so I buy the parts and do the job myself.

I am officially "homeless"... Had to sell my apartment because of runaway cost increases, and today the new owner officially took it over. Currently living partly in a borrowed house, and partially couch surfing, while trying to find out what to do next... I am strongly considering just packing up everything and moving to South America. Brazil is nice, and so is the Caribbean...

Things are looking up! I mean, every day I'm one day closer to my expiry date, so... you know, that's something, right? Gotta appreciate the little wins!

What Europe should do RIGHT NOW: Make it extremely easy for US scientists to get long-term visa, create as many additional research jobs in key areas as possible, create new, generous science and research funds. People are losing their jobs over there NOW. Let‘s welcome them.

Trump has free rein over Dutch government data. "The Netherlands relies heavily on American IT service providers such as Microsoft, Google and Amazon for the storage of government data." - I bet the UK does, too. And many others.

Something is off... Reverse/slid my car into a corner and got the whole door crooked. Replacing it with this white door was the quickest way to fix the issue... The advantage is that the car is going to be easier to spot in a car park 😂
