this is going to be amazing, I can already tell
Read Cinder House by Freya Marske and really enjoyed it. It is very unconventional in a lot of ways, and that makes it interesting.
Ah, but you can also randomly be passing through Ueno station and be accosted by a dude who insists on taking you to Starbucks and writing out a phonetic transcription of your name in kanji

Most importantly, the Chinese names are homophonous with "Zohran Kwame" when pronounced in both Cantonese (the spoken language used by first-wave Chinese immigrants from the South) and Mandarin (the spoken language used by new-wave Chinese immigrants from the North).

What an absolute masterstroke.

Zohran picked 「卓蘭」("excellent orchid") for his first name and「夸梅」("brilliant plum") for his middle name.

The orchid and the plum are among "The Four Noble Ones" in traditional Chinese art, the former symbolizing an indifference to fame and fortune, the latter an indomitable, incorruptible spirit.

Yeah, some people don't/can't, depending on many circumstances! Prognosis and outcomes vary widely.

I suspect a good deal of Fetterman's behavior is the stroke, personally.
Port Angeles smells like smoked fish and had not one but two No Kings/resist protests today, so well done Olympic peninsula.
He's stated he's not taking his prescribed medication, and stroke survivors and doctors have said that taking the medication is key to a full recovery
Well Victoria remains a great city to visit and Vancouver Island stays gorgeous. I think the Victorians are passively trying to petty fleece American tourists on tips but we can all agree that this is pretty justified these days.

Chinchin toshite
Ringo hatake, ame furite, [?] no midori no [?] ijiru

Not sure about the first kana in ijiru and I really want that one kanji to be gin but the radical simplification on the left doesn't look quite right
