Thinking that there is no reason to take your shoes off is the most American thing in the world. There is poop, pee, puke, pollen, pollution, parvo and prions out there, among other things.

In Japan the entryway of a house is usually a step lower than the rest of the house. It is considered part of the outside, where the shoes stay, as well as all of the dirty things from the outside that are on the shoes. And symbolically, your troubles from the outside world are not brought into the house either. It’s a major faux pas to wear your shoes in the house past this step and bring all that shit inside. Interesting contrast

Shoes in the house

I’m extremely consistent with my weightlifting program (1.5 years aww yeah!)

Starting to lift with the best decision I ever made and the best habit I’ve ever formed. Nagging aches and pains are basically a thing of the past. I’m way more useful, and my lower body, which was once withered and useless after a decade of working in an office, have been replaced with tree trunks and a dump-truck ass

A couple of the accessory benefits of this that in order to support my lifting progress I now eat way better, quit drinking and prioritize proper sleep. Overall it’s just been a huge increase in quality of life

No doubt that… It’s been a long road

The funny numbers

Looking back now there were some signs but boy that escalated quickly

“Fully funtional”

You sayin my man don’t pee or poo?!

The correct term is Rickyism

Slowly sail around the world, maybe document it so folks who might not otherwise have the chance to experience those places, can, if they are interested. Live as small and as green as possible on my boat. Solar, wind turbine, water generator.

Nice try, my brain

Gotta go with wildly inappropriate Master Roshi from the original Dragon ball, dude was out of control, definitely a product of his time that wouldn’t fly today
