Bought two books by Romanian-German Nobel Prize winner Herta Muller and added to wishlist two more regarding life in communist Romania. And that's pretty much it with regards to my savings target for this week. 😅 Seriously, I'm spending too much on books and audiobooks. Or maybe not enough. 😊

As usual, one needs to brace oneself for rude crowds, especially in the final.

Also, an integrative coach reached out to me after her mindfulness session. Very sweet of her. 😊

EU cost of living surges: Where are people paying the most? | Euronews

A factor in housing prices is politicians owning real estate and keeping prices artificially inflated.

Update on the soup status. It's the same every day. Which is a downgrade from the former vegan restaurant where they'd change it every day. Though, it's chunky mixed vegetables. My favorite. The downside is, if it's, for example, mushroom soup then I'll have to eat an alternative (more expensive) for until they change it. Luckily, I found an alternative (for now) which is a mixed salad, at this same place. The only downside is that it costs 8.50 bucks. Which is 55c more expensive than what I'd normally pay for soup at the former vegan restaurant. However, this is compensated by the fact that a small decaf oat latte for inside costs 4 bucks (70c less than at the former vegan restaurant), covering the gap. The only downside is that there's no loyalty card for the coffee and therefore, with a price increase like this, I'm not offsetting the coffee with a free one once in a while. Though, I'm willing to take the risk. In the end, it balances out. Let's see how often there's soup I like rather than not and then we'll see how the costs lay out. So far, it's what I like more often than not, but I'm also lacking data points. At least I've where to eat Vegan. So, I'm happy.

Today was a good day. Managed to get things done. I'm almost done with the current issue. Plenty left to implement for later. And, the elusive bug is not fixed. 😔 I'll leave it for when I revamp the entire thing with a different implementation.

Cari and janusz (the two hosts) are married.

Yeah, it looks good but now it's more like Tekken with finishing moves.

I'm curious to see if Kamala Harris will be able to draw contrasts in a debate with Trump and thus make Americans understand what they'll get if they vote for Trump.
