Decided to stop by H Mart in Burlington to look for some things. I haven’t been to the Burlington location in years because it’s so crowded (pre-pandemic). Didn’t find what I was looking for but got steamed Korean corn (forgot to take a pic) & some Lotte citrus gum.
I’d never had Korean corn 🌽 before finding it at H Mart in Cambridge a few years ago. I love corn so I got it expecting it to taste like most corn in America. It’s a difference variety called waxy or glutinous corn.

Resisted the Hello Kitty toilet paper. 😹
There’s a gift shop called Magic Castle inside H Mart that sells #kawaii & K-pop goods. 😮
I’ve been hoping to find a shitajiki 下敷き (literally “under sheet”) for a while because I thought it might be helpful when crafting. Finally found one!

Also found Korean #origami for the first time in years. They don’t have a large selection but I got some mini paper since they’re good for modulars.
Resisted cute office supplies and bags. 😆

They cram a lot into a very small space. Glad I stopped by!
Glutinous corn from H Mart. Thumb is so you can see how large the kernels are.

1. I really wonder if the countries/employers mandating vaccines for healthcare workers will cause more deaths due to staffing shortages. But it also isn’t clear how many of these workers have direct patient contact. Some hospital staff have zero interaction with patients.
2. This week I tried to get appointments at 2 medical facilities to follow up on a rash of unknown origin. For the first time I was told that I cannot see my specialists because they are fully booked. These are not high demand specialists who are usually booked.
3. I know that one department has been struggling with a staff shortage for much of the pandemic but not sure about the other one where I was told that I couldn’t see anyone because everyone is booked. (Other dept said appt with NP might be possible.)

1. Update on an old case. Last week, Sarah Braasch’s appeal before the Connecticut Superior Court trying to obtain Yale PD body cam footage of her interactions with officers in the early morning hours of May 8, 2018, was dismissed.
2. For legal background, see my previous thread on the case before the Connecticut Freedom of Information Commission which was dismissed on 9/9/20. That decision was appealed to the CT Superior Court.

3. A large part of the previous thread was just updates about delays due to the pandemic. Jump to this tweet for info on the hearing officer’s report and the commission’s vote.

I’m curious how many vaccinated people virtue signaling about the evils of the unvaccinated are volunteering to reach the unvaccinated but willing?
2. I’m still unvaccinated months after I expected to be vaccinated. It’s been part medical issues part choice part vaccine hesitancy because of my various medical issues.
3. It’s been bizarre reading misinformation/disinformation about who the unvaccinated are and why we are unvaxxed.

1. Saw an interesting #origami frame on Twitter last night. Decided to figure out how it was made. Took some trial and error but I worked it out. Think it would be good for #cardmaking with a sentiment in the frame or a gift tag. Image
3. Ended up doing a 2-hour #origami folding marathon last night for the first time in months thanks to… Image

I have a friend who is a professionally trained mediator who recently shared this brief Twitter lecture on mediation with me when we were looking at some tweets together. 🧵
I’ve since shared it privately with friends who found it helpful in other situations so I got permission to share publicly so it can have a wider audience.

He’s opting to remain anonymous. ↓
Obviously no one on social media is engaging in professional mediation here but you will often find people claiming to be neutral parties who are very much not what they say are. ↓
