When I teach children I use my male gender

Yeah.

Rightio...

that's because they are Chinese clients

culturally they don't accept trans or gay

I got a new job. Application, phone call, interview, and hired all in the same day.

I've seen a lot of trans Chinese through like random gifs and stuff online.

I guess it's getting there, so it might benefit you later on.

possibly

Excellent work though with the new job

You're kind of stuck in the West.

Yeah. My wages are kind of sucky, though. A fraction of what I'm used to, but my current company is dissolving, so... What can you do, aye?!

NDT is getting more popular. You could look into that. A lot of NDT techs charge AUD 150 per hour.

Sup everyone?

Sup.

Any good books you guys recommend? Right now I'm reading Body Language by Navarro and I'm waiting for Robert Greene's new book called Human Nature

The Laws of Human Nature

Robert Greene has a new book

I'm excited for it

Um Miyaomoto Musashi, The Book of 5 Rings

I actually have that book

Or Letters from a Stoic by Marcus Aurelius

Nice choices

Theres Mastery by Robert Greene. The Minimalist Mindset by Danny Dover

On Minimalism by Fumio Sasaki

I used to do Martial arts, So I ordered the Book of Five Rings and there was another book called Warrior Mind

I recently finished Mastery, I loved that book

The 50th Law was excellent too

When I started reading The Book of Five Rings, I found it hard to digest at the time. The Writing was really concise and dense

that's true

there's an annotated version though

I'll look into that one

with footnotes

I'll find the translator for that edition

Minimalism sounds cool

I'm thinking about getting a small house when I get enough money and a job to be able to fully support myself

I don't know about renting out a studio apartment, it would be hard to save money that way. Rent is expensive

i think there is healthy minimalism, for example i have a nice car, but i dont eat expensive and such
