Daily Routine: 1. check @nytimes.com for latest US political news. 2. Shake head in a combo of disbelief, disgust, & schadenfreude. 3. play daily NY Times games. 4. Thank the gods I divested most of my non-liquid US assets in 2024. 5. Go about my day.

This is a vital read. During my 28 years in academic research I have received hundreds of requests from aspiring scientists & clinicians to intern on my research team. I fear decades of unbelievable success is now behind us & China will now ascend as the premier biomedical resource globally.

I spent a week on the road with no time for news. What I’ve come back to is difficult to comprehend. The new admin’s scorched earth approach to governance is downright Sherman-esque. Media is failing. Congress is failing. Citizens are not in the streets with pitchforks, but I fear it won’t be long.

I do not recall a 24 hour or one week news cycle with more disturbing news about the state of the presidency and the US government in it than those of today and the past seven days. January 6 was nothing compared to this. But make no mistake, this too is the gov't being torn apart by a mob of thugs.

Fukuoka’s local udon is gobo niku udon. Burdock root tempura & shaved simmered beef. This shop dresses up theirs with scallions, seaweed, & a raw egg for ¥980 ($6.30 USD). The complimentary kimchi is spicier & more acidic than expected from a Japanese restaurant & cuts through the umami of the soup.

NYT reporting polls showing Americans generally approve of the job Trump is doing thus far, which feels like a good time to re-up this post from 5 days ago.
