How are you doing? How is the weather over there? I hope you're not feeling as cold as I am while writing to you this time. I remember writing about the heat a few editions back, and I can only wish the weather would find a way to not be this cold but not that hot. It seems we only have extremes (kind of like my emotions🫣).
I promised myself I was not going to talk about the power shortage due to the strike because, just as I have, you’ve probably had your fair share of newsletters discussing the topic. But I can tell you my bag is packed for a mini vacation the next time such a thing occurs. Feel free to reach out, though, if you would like to sponsor the trip because this economy is not giving😪.
As you will probably be able to tell by the end of this newsletter, I’m a huge Formula 1© fan. Let me tell you a story about one of the athletes I admire, even though I can’t stand him winning a race—we’re all Team Red Bull/ Team Max here.

I think it’s fitting to end this casual writeup from “J” on what many have come to know as “Musk’s Internet.”
He’s not lying, though, but there’s this also:
The rain has decided not to give us a break (and I love it) until we meet again🥶.
