Twitter thread Iâm enjoying â[No one knows how to actually learn a foreign language. I have been aggressively studying Spanish over the next month before I fly to Spain. Wanted to share a breakdown of what Iâve been doing, and how it differs from school...](=)â by [Jack Raines](=). For those who would like to explore language learning further, [these posts]( will give you new tools and tricks for faster acquisition. â
What Iâm prepping to cook â[Hot Rock Steak and Chimichurri Sauce](=) by [Remi Warren](. â
What Iâm listening to â[My Friend](=)â ([YouTube](=), [Spotify](=)) by [Groove Armada]() ([@GrooveArmada]()). â
Series Iâm watching â[Old Enough!](). This is a Scooby Snack for all the Japanophiles out there. These 10â15-minute episodes are perfect as emergency pick-me-ups. Hereâs the description: âChildren go on errands all by themselves for the very first time as a camera crew follows along in this beloved, long-running reality show from Japan.â Hat tip to JZ for this gem. ãã¤ããä¸è©±ã«ãªã£ã¦ããã¾ã, JZ-kun! â
Quote Iâm pondering âThe mind should be kept independent of any thoughts that arise within it. If the mind depends upon anything, it has no sure haven.â
ââ [The Diamond Sutra](=)â

Have a wonderful weekend, all.

Much love to you and yours,
