Dear Insane Children,  Things here in Shanghai are crazy. I wasn’t here during the Jan-Mar period of 2020 when Covid first kicked-off, so I can’t compare it to that… but certainly for the time since then, this is the most serious period of virus and lockdowns that I’ve seen. Tons of areas around Shanghai are…

Dear Insane Children,  Well… Shanghai is experiencing a wave of new Covid infections. You can read the local news about it here: https://www.shine.cn/news/metro/2203092893/  The result is that a ton of places are getting “locked down” – meaning residents can’t leave their homes; people have to stay put (for days) in their office buildings or schools;…

Dear Insane Children,  Woo it’s busy around here. In the last week, I’ve been to the hospital for migraines and the dentist for a painful tooth; Yan’s been to the hospital for pregnancy checkups; and Yan’s mom is off to see her brother in the hospital – meaning increased Lucky duty for myself and Yan…

From the feedback American and I have received, we’ve achieved that to a suitable level to proceed. My work is now…

Dear Insane Children,  Wow! We’re off to a great start. Roaring into the Year of the Tiger! Alice TV Series Deal First, for those who missed it: Radar Pictures has brought on board David Hayter to write and develop a TV series for “Alice” – you can read more about that via a Google Search.…

Dear Insane Children,  First off – an apology for not sharing the news here first on Patreon. When the story came out, it was already nearly midnight here in Shanghai and we were snuggled on the bed with Lucky. But better late and all that…  The Big News! As the image above proclaims – David…

Dear Insane Children,  Usually, it’s the VPN that gives our Live Streams trouble… but this week it’s Covid!  You can see in the local Shanghai news that there are several cases in the city – and that one case is directly north of where I live in Fengxian District. Looking at that map… Where you…
