Ikr... I don't even own a car, I walk to work, take the MRT everywhere etc. and the Americans are electing a president who says "Drill baby, drill". I'm not an American, but it will affect us all... I live in Taiwan now and I'm fucking afraid of what his presidency will do to the geopolitical balance with China.

Just ran a half marathon today. Finished at 2:12. I was aiming for 2hrs but I still have a lot of room for improvement.

Followed the 2hrs pacers for 6km, finally accepted that it wasn't sustainable for me yet (HR reached 190).

Planning to do some deadlifts in the upcoming months before getting back to higher running volume.

See, mental health is important, depression is a serious matter.

Jokes aside, every country will now have to face increasingly unpredictable catastrophes...we need to quit the oil and gas industry for real. Really hope that they will be held accountable for real 😔

I should try this at work hmm.

 

Hi folks,

I've been living in Taiwan for years so I have the NIH. Recently my knee is acting up and will get super painful during runs. As much as I want to deny it, I suspect that I have a meniscus tear 😢.

If that is the case, I don't know if I have the financial means to support the treatment, so I want to ask if there's anyone here with an experience with knee meniscus repair or ACL reconstruction surgery in Taiwan?

Any recommendations for a hospital or doctor? How much did it cost or did you get quoted?

Thank you very much!

It's super sad to see. We used to complain about kids being fed digital "contents" as pacifiers, but now I constantly see older people super fixated with their phone watching tiktok videos. 😔

Physical activity. Going to the gym or going for a run. Watch movies/series. Lazing around while telling myself that it's ok not to be productive.

I live in TW, can confirm this happened in Taiwan, not in China.

I'd like to try it out one day, for now I don't think I want to do that kind of investment in my setup. It sounds glorious though to have so many monitors.

We should rename it to the South East Asian Sea, SEAS for short.
