PROMPT: Personal Item
I think it was a sword, back in the days when swordsmanship was among the subjects i studied. But I can say, with some measure of pride, that I really don’t know for sure because I don’t really put much value in owning things and have become ever less interested in possessing more stuff.

PROMPT: Podcasts
I don’t properly listen to any, but I watch clips and segments from many on YouTube — mostly those of comedians, but some of a popular science or current events / international affairs / macroeconomic nature.

PROMPT: Subject in School

PROMPT: Screen Time
How do you manage screen time for yourself?
Keep moving. One can’t be zombified by the machine when one is swimming, running, or otherwise getting a move on.
