Sat plan: Coffee and shitposting and pluggage; household chores; a visit to Chinatown / Thaitown / Haymarket for various things including the “Merchants of Haymarket” exhibition at MOCA https://moca.com.au/exhibition/; evening TBA, unless I’ve forgotten something.

MOCA is the lovely little Museum of Chinese in Australia. The photo is captioned:

Very old black and white formal studio photo of four Chinese businessmen in light-coloured suits and dark ties sitting around a small table. A painted backdrop shows trees and a cloudy sky.
