    Domestic violence, need advice/opinion

    I do not remember the source, but I read an article that said that interviews with survivors of jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge revealed that basically every one of them instantly regretted the decision after having jumped. Of course, this is going to be a small sample size.

    Lots of wrongdoings get a pass because it's "nggak enak"

    This ties in with a side effect of "nggak enak"... the passive-aggressive move of agreeing with someone in public, but then circling back afterward (often through an intermediary) and trying to weasel out of the plans with which one publicly agreed. Back when I used to partner with a "tempat...

    First jab done

    My kids got their second jabs at a drive-through location today. I guess our household is squared away until boosters become required. Hopefully, all four of us will have working QR codes.

    First jab done

    Well, we had our first Vax-glitch today. The location which told the kids to return on "11 agustus" was, of course, closed for the holiday. The Mrs. will try again tomorrow.

    First jab done

    Same for my kiddos. Assuming all goes well tomorrow, our household will consist of 4 fully Sino-vaxed people, one of whom has an additional J&J (myself). Who knows, maybe we can even shop in a mall sometime soon

    This is why my son insists that the dish he bakes is cottage pie rather than shepherd's pie. Minced beef is just far easier to find and less expensive (at least in Jakbar / Tangerang) than minced lamb is.

    The raw numbers always go down on Sundays, but the percentage testing positive is over 25%. Hence, the decline represents a reduction in testing rather than a reduction in cases.

    I hope you had some Skyline or Gold Star Chilli while you were in Cincinnati! I am a huge fan of three-ways (spaghetti, chilli, & copious amounts of shredded cheddar) and coneys (small chilli cheese dogs) with no onions or mustard.

    Introducing: Dark Mode!

    Dark mode is particularly useful for reading at night with the lights out. My only minor gripe is that the scroll bar is almost identical to the background.

    I imagine ASEAN countries will accept CoronaVac since it is what most of them (except Singapore) also use. Furthermore, although it took a few months longer, CoronaVac did get the same WHO approval that the other vaccines received.

    Just to clarify, I do not know the actual price per meal that the hotel paid, but was saying that I could source better catering meals on a budget of 15k per meal.

    Not to interrupt all of the Orange Man talk, but is there any word on whether PSBB will be altered on/after Monday?

    Vaccine effectiveness and Herd Immunity

    Very sorry to hear that. The current wave of Covid seems to be hitting far more entire families than previous ones did.
