Budgetting for August

August must be the month with the most random expenses of the year. Some people receive holiday funds to cover these expenses. I do not. All in all, this series of posts covers budgetting for August irrespective of the size of one's budget.

August has:

• Carte blanche for random social occasions.

• Many of those occasions where consumption is very restricted.

• Things more expensive than usual (in general).

We will:

• Either stick to the budget we have for things or spend in accordance with our budget planning.

• Not spend more than we should spend.

• Not hold back.

Proof of Concept for Buy-a-Drink

Written evidence that proves that the concepts that are mentioned in Buy-a-Drink are very practically manageable. The concepts are the improvement of:

1. Physical appearance

2. Intellectual appearance

3. Professional appearance on the internet

4. Professional appearance on paper

Elements of the to be improved concepts and the changes that are the result of the applied methods of improvement are:

1 - Physical Appearance

a. Fashion

Investment into a more professional wardrobe. Currently, I have only a handful of outfits and none of them are suitable for professional appearances. After investment, I hopefully won’t be able to say that I do not have clothing for every possible occasion. (Best case scenario: to be mindful about shopping for loungewear.)

b. Fitness

Investment into clothing and equipment (such as gloves). Currently, I have two sets of clothing, two sports bras, one towel, no water bottle and no gloves. After investment, I hope to have more sets of clothing so I can visit the gym more often in a week without doing the laundry more often, be the owner of a glass bottle that is suitable for gym attendance (plastic gets more greasy) and prevent calluses with gloves in the increase of the weight that I lift.

c. Face

Investment into the treatment of face. Currently, I have terrible pcos, use non-organic skin care products and own a pallette of make-up not variable enough to adapt color to any outfit at any occasion. After investment, the pcos is treated, I use the suitable products of skin care and am the owner of a dream-pallette.

d. Hair

Investment into a more iconic type of voluptuous hairstyle. Currently, the wig that I own is a couple of years old and has shed quite some hair in the total period of near-daily use. For my natural hair I use whatever I use for my wig (an economic option). After investment, I hopefully am the owner of more voluptuous wigs, suitable for literally any type of appearance and am able to visit a proper barber shop.

2 - Intellectual Appearance

a. NHA

To become an official experience expert. A more intellectual appearance is in the carrying of the knowledge of the experience expert (applied).

b. Writing equipment

To write reports and other publications with more professional equipment. The more intellectual appearance is in the (allocation of tools for the) equipment that I use. Currently, for example, the battery of my laptop is too old for it to not be connected to a socket of power, so I cannot “work” anywhere that I want. After investment, I am mobile.

c. Reading

One who reads more, is wiser.

d. Contacts

One is as professional as the people who one surrounds oneself with. A more intellectual appearance is in the investment into a more professional network and investment into maintaining the contacts.

3 - Professional Appearance on the Internet

a. Freelancers

To outsource tasks to a selection of freelancers who have more time and skill for the objectives given.

b. Community

The maintenance of a community creates a more innovative environment.

c. Meeting events

If this all becomes as bubbly as I want it to be, I could invest into the organization of meeting events.

4 - Professional Appearance on Paper

a. Hard-copies of Written Publications

Special edition.

b. Newsletter by Tangible Mail

When the news is that exceptional.

[f-a-n-g-s-s-s]

I don’t understand this.

Like, how the fuck do you just mimick SQL language in C#?

And then create like a loop sequence that goes “I reiterate in the spectrum y = 1 or 0, x goes to plus infinity, with the goal of updating a single row (say one frequency appearance of y), assume that there are infinite frequency appearances of y and then find one value of x?”

Episode 6: Don’t Write This Down, it is going to cause x = c [Perfumery and Drugs]

The excess of Aerosol is the intangible (fiscal) basis of the Elixir. Hierarchically The Elixir (macro-to-micro [R] / micro-to-macro [A]) covers the full fiscal aspect of the market. Aerosol knows no hierarchy.

Wallet players of market influence gamble their way through evaluation rounds. Confusion and reassurance are their primary incentives for movement of action. Assemblies are monitored 24/7, evaluation at the end of every work day. Their constituents are evaluated monthly (“Rank III”), quarterly (“Rank II”) or annually (“Rank I”) based on their rank.

Economic: x = infinity, y = 0; absolute inverse; B -> Ci -> y

Fiscal: x = 0, y = infinity, relative inverse, Ci -> B -> y

Episode 5: Macro-influence

Over-emphasizing “the self” yields an entity that increasingly exists within the bounds of theory, leaving less opportunity for the spontaneity that is definitely attributed to “the self”. It is not funny.

Once defensive, either uphold the theory of self at all costs or gamble that the properties of the external entity do not differ from that which the heart will never ignore. Admitting to something that is not directly attributed to “the self” is not weakness, but it creates a game that is primarily influenced beyond one’s spectrum of direct perception.

Every move that manifests an expression of self is a contribution to the definition of self in the afterlife. It goes from personal style to what your existence means to others, to the mark you leave on the universe (omniverse and hyperverse (from the perception of self)). May it bring peace to your soul.

Energy transitively exists infinitely. Within divergence, convergence and parallels of their sources, there are manifestations of life. The power of the intelligence within the bounds of something that exists is increasing in potency until it dies. If what that power manifests causes divergence / if that power manifests divergence, whether or not that is a bad thing that is perceived depend on profit-based interests (that take into consideration the interests of the public) and independent thoughts and feelings.

Personal properties that one inherits could make the next divergence, convergence or parallel that one manifests something predictable. When all other actions of other existing entities are considered fully unpredictable, the entity becomes (fully) predictable on macro-level. This is fully scientific (β) on a hyperversal level, economic (γ) on an omniversal level and social (α) on a universal level. (It is then vice versa if the entity is predictable on micro-level because everyone else is fully predictable on macro-level.)

The preference for wanting to define the influence of an individual entity on macro-level stems from my wish to be able to understand an individual independent from the political influences that are external. This is restrictive to manifestations of personal desire and hazardous to demands that must be satisfied in full exactness on micro-level. Therefore the intangible idea of personal desire must be considered the cause of the unpredictability on micro-level and individual demands that would cause disruption when not satisfied in full exactness must be acknowledged on macro-level.

I do not see (the) danger in this (abstract) policy. If a single entity is, however, considered powerful enough to cause divergence, convergence or parallelism on macro level, and this is considered predictable, then external factors can be overlooked too easily, given every micro entity can be defined as a macro influence. Instead of seeing a choice for which one holds responsibility as a random (as in unpredictable) manifestation of the entity’s free will, choices are seen as passive manifestations of the entity being consumed by environmental circumstances, descent, and other external factors I could be forgetting (psychiatry).

Does that make every choice a risk that one cannot avoid to take? If it is considered predictable, that makes it the opposite. (But outside of the comfort zone it might feel like the latter.) The controversy somehow makes it easier to assign a tangible definition to economic value in contrast to fiscal value. Given the concept of mutual value is not more than an agreement (in theory), economic goods that come into existence as a result of the influence of an individual entity on macro-level, its omniversal influence is more tangible than it were if it was considered a micro-influence (actually considering the environment a constant and the entity an external factor to the constant (thus a variable)), so emotional value becomes a sink hole because external factors are indeterminable and fiscal value becomes a bottleneck that is subject to the sink hole. The passive entity its muneral life is a matter of psychiatry, after all.

Episode 3: Meal Planning

My shelves are almost completely empty. Zorgtoeslag deposit is here, which I will use to assemble stock for the long-run (that is the exact opposite of going all out for one special meal). The budget is €155,- (gosh, inflation…). The planning here must ensure I don’t end up throwing things out because I haven’t assigned the ingredient to a dish, and also dishes reaching their maximum contextual tastiness because the plan makes a full circle.

Susceptibility to the algorithms I don’t know but I haven’t eaten Indonesian food in years, and base ingredients are very sustainable, so that is a must. Naughty galia melon taste is a must. The nonchalance of eating kapsalon is a must. The vulgar taste of the combination of cream, meat and cheese on a buttery wrap is a must. Fuet for mitigating Vladi’s levels of testosterone is a must. Some sugary drinks and candies because the overall taste in my mouth must stay on the sweet side otherwise I am more likely to be salty. 🥹 That is the atmosphere from which my selection of ingredients is derived. How much inflation will be a shocker I do not know yet.

Episode 2: Gas Stove versus Electric Stove

Chef: Practitioner

“Lobbyists make this affair a dangerous matter. There are so many leftist people pleading for an end to the gas stove, because they say it contributes to saving the environment, but ask them what difference it makes in terms of governmental supervision and most of them won’t have an answer at all. There is the importance of a complete governmental oversight on one side, and the right to a good dinner experience on the other. I’m not a biologist nor am I a geologist so I can’t say much about what this means to the environment.”

“That was a fragment of our Regentesse in the tenth episode of “The Supervisor”,” echo the words of Frankie Celenza on camera on a stage. “A great part of our audience has asked us the same question: What type of stove should I own as practitioner chef? The economic transition of the Desideratum Years allows us to switch either way once: gas or electric?”

Reflexive propaganda like this is extremely important for Portfolio Year. The type of stove, a sub-topic on the greater subject of home energy supply, that is selected this year must be serving hot dishes from Orientation Year onwards. The Judicial Branche is on top of this right now. It is January and the people are registering advanced general data about their assets derived from their RSVP.

“The board of Omnidroid International has done a tasting experiment, and all of us concluded that some dishes their flavors only reach their optimal conditions when prepared on a gas stove. Wok technique used on a gas stove cannot be mimicked by the electric stove. In the end, this controversy is all about the techniques that you personally use as a chef.”

Looked at alternatively, the opportunity to improve the isolation materials in the funding of homes is accompanied by the switch to an electric stove. The opportunity to renovate the constructive layout of a home is accompanied by the switch to a gas stove. The people who made the switch to electric with isolation before DY0 are lucky to enjoy the loophole that allows for the change of the constructive layout after partial improvements to home isolation. (It’s a waste of energy writing legislation that prohibits this potential waste of resources.)

“To assist you in your decision making process, I’d say the key is in your routines. If you prepare Asian food often, you’re missing out if you don’t have a gas stove. If you spend a lot of time out of the house as a chef, an electric stove could be enough.”

Chef: Illuminatus

Somehow I’ve become so accustomed to the occasional stares from the diner guests from whom my throne is located at the other side of the podium. This is a new batch of contractors. No familiar faces.

“Why do you shower for three hours every day? It is x = c every time. You do this while you have not gone to sports practice since the beginning of the new season.” Spoken words echo from speakers.

High heels playfully stride up and down the stairs that go across the catwalk towards the podium in between the guests and I. The highly skilled AI waitresses carry five serving trays at once.

“I carry much responsibility at work. I’m high maintenance,” is the reply.

There are three sets of sliding doors to pass through for guests to enter the diner. They only open after phone or bank card NFC, which first takes care of fully automated AI valet, is scanned outside. Next there is the AI wardrobe and lockers where phone, wallet and car keys are stored, the key to the locker also serves for the ability to leave the diner to visit the atelier (if an appointment has been made beforehand) and nightclub perks. There are no phones allowed past the second door.

“Holy shit. You did not know that “x = 0” is the collective aim and not “x = c”? We all do so much planning to serve our needs with mathematical precision, inclusive of whatever you call being high maintenance. Fifteen hours of unexpected hot water usage is highly preventable.”

From the sliding doors to the seating for diner guests, a booth is passed with the only escalators in all of Narcifilii. One goes up. The other goes down. Opening suit buttons to take a seat.

“Sorry I’m late.”

Chef: Illuminatus Intelligens

Revisiting the island that has not seen a sign of life in two decades is one of the scariest things I’ve done in a long time. (Circumstances to me more unpredictable than usual.) Gardening was our first objective. Before opening the eyes of the AI versions of what used to be the board members of Omnidroid International, we wanted to make sure that their surroundings are similar to the imagery they process, identifying with the mortal versions of themselves on first set-up.

Oddly enough these are some of the things that we have looked forward to from the beginning. We had a lot of fun. The games we made to acquaint these AI citizens with their responsibilities, putting things in context, was a very enlightening experience. It suited the ritual that followed so well.

We laughed. We cried. We danced together. The effects of the Killer Fuet feeling increasingly personal. It used to be relatively easy to be indifferent when we perform The Ritual, but this one went over so many years of collaboration, I could not help but shed a tear after it was all over. Now we are on our way back to the Third Reich together with the new AI citizens. Two down, four more to go.

The Personal Administrator

Episode 1: The Opinion Panel

“Subtle Change”

“Unlike what you were used to, this has dry aged three times longer than its mass production equivalent. And, of course, this was not made in a factory. It was hand-made by a butcher.”

I don’t know if that is the ultimate to dry aging, but I’m glad that it is made with love.

“It is (as a product line) just newly introduced to the economy since the economic transition. This variant right here is limited edition, in this case available to those who are a member of the Delta x Opinion Panel who receive the highest rating on the assignment that has recently been published for it. You can still sign up for it right now by (…)”

My… allergies…. were acting up. That is enough television for now. Seeing autonomous initiative work out is great, though. I still have about 45 minutes to kill before my Personal Administrator its next professional activity is initiated. This autonomous initiative has got me thinking… I am going to take this out on the pole.

I guess my back will never get tired of lifting this lever. The pole was in its standard position, at the ridge of the first floor, where I use it for practicing technique. I need to lift the lever to drag it along the rails towards the chalk board. Let’s see. Something made the initiative feel so sturdy…

This economy is in its baby shoes, its first transactions initiated just weeks ago. The sausage was imported from an ally territory we have a deal with for three years. After that we must produce it fully independently. (Aiming to establish healthy economic routines and then focus on innovation towards full sovereignty.) It took years to teach the society to participate in the economy in this fashion, and it is absolutely better than it used to be, but it is clearly visible that in the long run this too needs innovation and I better not let that become a surprise…

What I can say is that this change must be introduced with subtlety. Similar to the way I tried to hide the shaking of my right leg as I slid it upwards the pole and spun before I climbed up on it to write “Subtle Change”, underlined, on the chalk board. Too much enthusiasm causes an odd form of muscle tension. This is all still so new to me that I feel unusually happy about everything I do. It affects my sleep schedule, which is how I was able to make breakfast for my husband and I instead of receiving it. (Which is odd because I prefer to receive it, but was too hyped to stay in bed I would have woken this adorable angel up.)

It is in Delta x being associated with all kinds of media, and this being about food specifically. Given that we as economists now strive for diverse taste experiences that stem from evolutionary bio-diversification instead of exploitation, which is very exceptional in the history of food tasting, it is almost disrespectful to receive limited edition opportunities for it if one were not looking for it. So it is in the Opinion Panel being the default gateway to the opportunity.

On the left side of “Subtle Change”, I have written “Delta x” and “Opinion Panel” on the right, both its circling ovals connected by a straight line to it. “Delta x” is a stakeholder in this case, because how much will be unclear when things change depend on how non-subtle the execution of change will be, which determines the severity in unusual traffic towards Delta x. The “Opinion Panel” is what must receive some sort of subdivision. It stays under Delta because with Gamma there is no emphasis on didactics and we want extensive feedback.

The people who will participate in this first time explicit food tasting experience in this economy can, in the feedback of their taste experience, also give feedback on the quality of the assignment they had to do to qualify for it. From there we can develop an opinion panel that is specifically oriented on food. I must figure out who these people are. I should make some of them next month’s contractors. (Not all of them because I’m sure they won’t all be as passionate, personal x must be closest to 0 (which was not a requirement) and it won’t be the only covered issue.)

After subtle, pensive movement (in contrast to aggressive, dynamic, which I was yesterday), I wrote down “Change must appear seamless,” underneath “Delta x” and listed “Outlining sub-panel, choosing participants for contractors,” underneath “Opinion Panel”. I will discuss this with my husband tonight. A new month has just started. If the roll-out of the research phase starts next month, there is plenty of time to prepare.

My notification sound echoes through the speakers of the home office. A textual description of the Métier shows on the screen above the chalk board, along with some statistics. I must prepare for tonight’s prognostics. X is currently on the slightly positive side, but within the normal margin.

Sampling

The feeling of the dynamics of the water embraces me one last time as I dive under and swim across it, only to find my husband underneath the shower when I surface.

“How was basketball practice?” I ask him.

“It was great,” he replies. “The dynamics of the team are increasingly coordinative. The center position suits me very well.”

“I am so glad to hear that you like your position and observe the team its progress within it. I can’t wait to see your first match coming Sunday. Meet me in the office when you are done showering. There are some Delta dynamics that I must discuss with you.” I kiss him on his bicep (which is at my standing height), put on my bathrobe and head for the office.

Even though it is a longer route, I prefer to take the rope ladder in the office to the bedroom. (It’s nicer than the stairs on my leg muscles.) I’ve decided to grab the experimental perfume samples I made yesterday to make this occasion less serious. It is just to initiate talk about food tasting at the opinion panel.

On the desk are five samples. I will lay more emphasis on the perfumery. We always drift off in deep philosophy about tangents when the two of us address controversies to-the-point. By the end of this, I must know what sample he likes most for the perfumery that will be released next month and I must know how extensive he thinks we should be on the subdivision of the opinion panel.

“I have here a fresh, energizing scent. The economy is in its baby shoes and given we strive for prosperity, a fresh and energizing scent might be suitable. Mind you, I say energizing because I’ve sharpened a base note in such a way that it initially feels like a top note. What do you think?” I grab the first sample tube with my left hand and spray some on the piece of paper I have in my right hand, the arm of which is wrapped around my pole, the lever free so I can jump up and slide it through the split in the desk in such a way that I can hover over to the other side of it and hover the first sample stick above his cleanly shaven upper lip.

“Even though it smells amazing, to go for a scent that is so directly in tune with a specific ideal for this economy right at the beginning, the market of tomorrow unusually unpredictable, is likely not the right choice. The top base note, however, is so uniquely refreshing that this scent may not be forgotten.”

“I had not considered that the fresh and energizing scent concept for the baby shoes economy could become nearly traumatic if we experience unfortunate economic circumstances. It’s not right to smell fresh with that philosophy when there is a crisis. But I will put it in my perfumery archive and hope that I find a more suitable time for it. Now, with similar caution, I must disclose to you that the method we currently have for food enthusiasts to try out limited edition creations is not exclusive enough. Like the process of discrimination is not enough to-the-point.”

“In the context of legal dynamics, what interfacial phenomenon are we talking about here? If it must be seamless like the chalk board says, let’s say it would not exist at all, where is the origin of the matter? Is it something that always noticeably penetrates the tangible side of the Delta x market, or is it something periodic or something? Because if the method must change, and it lacks exclusivity, how will we be able to say that now it is exclusive enough? Is this a very unique controversy, or is it just me?”

“I guess complete information about the uniqueness of the controversy as a historic matter we must leave to Pappenheimer. The content of the Opinion Panel is rather exclusive from the ADR, but the moments when it broadcasts to all audiences are pre-determined. The citizens have been taught a specific style of participation, so to touch that in such an early stage of the economy would likely confuse them, but the importance of food tasting would be drowned out if we do not sharpen the standards for discrimination. It is exclusive enough when only those who explicitly want to qualify as food critic can be eligible to food tasting opportunities. What do you think of this scent? It is intended to be mystical.”

“These are mystical times. But to promote that philosophy would stir the public debate back to the inertia that drove us here in the first place. Not that would be the end of us. On a high note, however, it is more refreshing than it is confusing if it is introduced as not more than a subdivision.”

“That would indeed barely affect the style of participation. Also, it would make it a lot less difficult to be very much to-the-point in discrimination. If we apply this the very next time there is a food tasting opportunity, the change in policy would barely be experienced as such. If you track down when that is, I will talk to Pappenheimer. Even though we do not want this to be of influence to the markets, to be able to keep the people’s faith, we must publish a report on this along with the initiation of the new subdivision. Here I have a scent that is so floral that it smells almost feminine, but with an earthing musk. It too has an element of rejuvenation in the message, but without the untouchable freshness.”

“I think this scent has the perfect amount of masculinity to it and the message allows for so much free thought that that itself is even more uplifting than untouchable freshness. I believe the limited edition food tasting thing is legally documented as a monthly recurring product, so that too will not disrupt the market. Would sharpened discrimination change anything to the way it is supplied?”

“Yes. Currently it is all sent to one location for it to be picked up there, but I find that it should not the same for an intimate group of food critics. I want them to be more like a food tasting family, for example choosing to meet up at the picknick area of Arrondissement 3 to exchange views before they are published. That is more costly than continuing it in the limited edition store, but it is a much more worthy experience for the food critic who will be inspiring the general side of our food industry.”

“Then I must look into the contract with the limited edition store as well.”

“I will write it down,” I say. Making stretchy moves after doing the same hovering half-turns in the same positions, I fix the pole to write “Contract evaluation: suppliers and limited edition store,” on the left side of “Delta x”. Even though not much changes, it still says “suppliers” because packaging must be re-evaluated if it is shipped straight to-home instead of to the limited edition store. “Would you rather see the fixed group all receive the product every time, with a potential change in demanded production volume, or should the recipients be chosen selectively, putting the producer its self-proclaimed contractual volume first?”

“We must work with at what volume the producer supplies the most refined edition of its product. In that sense, not much changes to the contracts we have with the suppliers. That is inclusive of the annual contract evaluation. But I’m guessing that you would still like to have every contract be re-evaluated because of what the sharpened discrimination does to the branding?”

“Yes indeed. How the branding should change in exact terms I will discuss with Pappenheimer. What do you think of this scent? It is fruity and fresh, the only thing making it more unisex than non-masculine is a hint of cypress. I would say this, given the cyclical perfumery subscription is new to all, would be a cheeky introduction to it, given then everyone smells like a (first time) ice cream date.”

“That’s such a creative concept. I think the scent is ideal for the humidity of everything its newness. And next month will be the first month that we close a quarter, so that suits the indiscriminate newness of the other scent you sampled earlier. You seem tired. Are we done here?”

“Almost. This scent here is so musky that it will make every occasion feel like some old school casino occasion with expensively tailored suits and cigars.”

“I am too young for this, haha.”

Pappenheimer

Felix holds my hand as I step out of our small sailboat. Even though I love the liberating feeling of being on the water, I do not have sea legs. We get onto our tandem bicycle and cycle to the private quarters of those who work for The Central Bank, which is about ten minutes away from the Narcifiliian recreation zone.

Everyone is already there, seated at the large outdoor table of Pappenheimer’s place. He hosts a dinner party every first Saturday of the month. It is a very good moment because in terms of prognostics there are some numbers, but there is still plenty of inspiration to leave for the remainder of the month.

A synthetic sign that is shaped like a stretched out pyramid, on the plate to the right of Pappenheimer’s, who is seated at the left head of the table, says “Dominique”. Felix is seated across Brandon, my husband, who is seated to the right of Marcus at the other head of the table.

“Pass me the salad nearest to you, please,” Vincent Pappenheimer, president of The Central Bank of Narcifilii, asks John Mulaney, Quality Control’s secretary, seated across me. Brandon has made a salad with smoked mackerel and pomegranate on behalf of the two of us. I know my son Vladimir is providing charcuterie later on behalf of Felix and him. (He is sitting next to me.) The salad nearest to us is Vincent’s, with watermelon and edible flowers.

“This is for you,” he says, salad descending onto my plate from two ladles. He gives my plate salad before his own. My plate needed only one scoop of salad, while his needed three to seem equally filled, five to suit his gender. Dinnerware at this table is of custom size, adapted to its user. We differ so much in height.

“Thank you, dear,” I reply. “This looks delicious. How have you been able to acquire edible flowers?”

“They were sent to us from Spain as a trial sample of next month’s limited edition samples. You know, as the President of The Central Bank I like to be able to relate to the culinary experiences of my fellow citizens. It is so important to stay reflexive about the quality of our food. Speaking of which, Vladimir told John about the culinary sub-panel affair, so he hooked me up with a whole library of instances of comparable alternations of policy. I have written this report about it for you,” he says, affectionately placing a hand on John’s hand when he referred him, flipping over the plastic covered stack of paper with golden ring binder and turning it towards me. It says “Subtle Separation”.

“What did you think of the segment about the limited edition sausage?” I ask.

“It was quite boring. Advertising on prime time news is sin already, and then the elaborate instructions for registration…”

“Not to mention what truly made it limited edition, in culinary terms, was left unaddressed. How are people going to become enthusiastic about special foods when they don’t know what makes it special?”John fills him in.

“We indeed need something special on our prime channel for this. Should we assign a face to it, or should representation be randomly selected every time?” I say.

“I’d say let’s deploy Marcus for that. Currently there is not enough accurate feedback of citizens identifying him as our “face of the people”.”

“What an excellent idea. He is also suitable for supervising the discrimination process of who receives what limited edition foods. If I invite three critics to The Contractors Drink, how much must they know to keep the process subtle?”

“After tasting these amazing limited edition edible flowers, I think they know enough.”

Let’s see

I wonder if I can publish a post here and then add to it while it’s already there like I used to. It’s easier to explain the concept of The Personal Administrator in a short story instead of explaining it in like SQL with didactics (but I could even add that to the story for flawless results).

Adding text here.

I don’t know where I can do some CSS on this shxt. Sans-serif fonts make me appear excessively easy. But I’ll accept that for now.

And I wonder what this looks like. Is this for quotes?

Shall I use this for “SQL” (Scorpio because the operators are more complex.)

<yes>

</no>

Logging in on Tumblr after like 10 years is just... Wow. How times have changed.

This lockdown has gotten me extremely bored, and I want to preserve this page, so I've created a new tumblr for new posts.

Are you still active on here...?
