I was browsing the internet and stumbled across one of those “How much you should have saved by your age” charts. I got scared, held my breath, and slammed the tab shut immediately.

Then I remembered I’m dropping a beat tape called Grid. My love life is still off the grid, but at least the beats are right on it. I tried to make a spark with someone, but apparently my flirting skills still need more flint.

Grid Beat Tape is out and streaming across all platforms now: https://linkco.re/PxTrfyvF?lang=en

This morning, I was waiting in line for a bathroom stall at my local train station when a guy ran up to me, handed me a $10 bill, and said, “I’m so sorry! Can I cut in front of you?”

He probably paid off about five people in total, so he spent around 50 bucks.

But if spending $50 means you don’t have to lose your dignity in a train station bathroom line, that’s actually a pretty good deal.

Just a regular 40-year-old Japanese guy trying to figure out life one bathroom line at a time.
