For VidUKon's GPOY (here something like "show us a vid that is very you") Premiere, I vidded a city:

Kyoto.

The city of my memories, and the city (real and imagined) as it has been portrayed by animators across 22 different sources from various genres.

Today's #DecRecs are recipes by Herman, who is one of this year's best discoveries for me. Especially his "Easy lazy meals" have been fantastic during this period where I've had very little energy, and Skuld has had to take care of all our cooking. The poached chicken! The air fryer salmon! So good!

We're on F in #MusicAdvent already?! I had lots of candidates in my favorites, but I'm the end none of them can beat Florence, especially when her new single blew me away. Very glad that we managed to see her live when we lived in England!

Actually somewhat-massive news, COCONA, one of the members of the all-Japanese based-in-Korea group XG, has come out as non-binary transmasc and having had top surgery

Which for an active idol in either country is just unheard of, never mind one at such a big group. They look amazing!
XG’s Cocona Comes Out as Transmasculine, Nonbinary
The 20-year-old rapper announced the news in an Instagram post: “I was born and perceived as female, but that label never represented who I truly am. I live in a way that feels more masculine and true...

The disappointment when Ji Sung is starring in a new show called "The Judge Returns" but the judge in question ISN'T Kang Yohan...!

Judge Lee Han Yeong, who believed justice could be achieved in the courtroom, defied his superiors' orders and sentenced a conglomerate chairman to life...

#NayeHealth and possible TMI:

Nothing is quite as exhausting as waking up three times in one night with your ostomy bag peeling off and your PJs needing to go in the laundry.

It's never been this bad before. I'm so tired.

Got an ostomy therapist appointment Weds. Desperately hoping she can help.

#DecRecs today: the Kdrama Revenant! Which is so good and creepy but not horror in the gore & jumpscare sense. (CW for suicide and child death.). A really compelling story with some absolutely stellar acting.
Finished #Revenant yesterday, and it was SO satisfying!! The story wraps up beautifully, and gives all the female characters so much agency. (Agency they use to be both good and really, really NOT!) And I love how the horror stays a thing of mirrors and shadows and unsettling smiles. 1/2

OK, on ep 8 already. The backstory mystery, Du Cheng zoning out staring at Shen Yi's face, and Shen Yi's water trauma are my favorite bits. I'm fascinated by Shen Yi's frankly supernatural talent - like, it's set in real China so clearly isn't meant to be anything but Skills, but.... I'm also --
Decided to stick around Cdrama land, and are now 5 episodes into 猎罪图鉴 Under the Skin. I think the last real world Chinese police show we watched was... When A Snail Falls in Love in 2016?? So - quite outside our usual box! So far it's really engaging, even if some case stuff is very WTF. #UtSdrama

For #MusicAdvent "E" I've picked Editors. A band I've liked many songs by for a really long time. One day I really want to find a good match for a vid. Something like Papillion has such a great, driving beat!

We report: we caught a movement in the sky, something unfurling and twisting itself in and out of shape. To the naked eye, it is just quick enough to see it happen in real time. We know how these clouds go, but it does not take away from watching this one at its freest.

Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it.

So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:
How to quit Spotify

Currently extremely grateful for Sumatriptan + Naproxen, which KO'd a sudden migraine before the migraine could KO me. Go medicine!!

#DecRecs If you like ginger and citrus, I highly recommend this super easy recipe for ginger shots. I've been making them all fall, and they're so delicious! It's basically fresh orange juice with some lemon acidity and a nice little kick. (I double the ginger when I make it, for more of a kick!)
Today in "Wait, you can just make this at home??" I tried a super simple recipe for ginger shots (www.instagram.com/p/DDUvakTymA...) and the result is delicious! And because I made it I can drink as much as I want it doesn't have to be a shot it can be a whole glass (with a kick)!

#MusicAdvent - I had a lot of choices for D, but had to go with the amazing Dessa. I love so much of her music, including Camelot from her latest EP... Picking just one song is hard, but I'll go for the one of hers I've vidded. (For my very first VidUKon Premiere, too! ... I'll drop the link below.)

The Deezer wrapup is really fun! Given that it told me the first song I listened to was on January 24th (Bump of Chicken's "Souvenir"!) that's when I finally switched from Spotify. Which I did for ethical reasons, but it's a nice bonus that the sound quality is so much better! And we pay less, too.
