I wrote another in this series exploring kanji by different radicals.

Making a Splash: Kanji with the Water Radical (氵)
From ponds (池) to the sea (海), and swimming (泳) to crying (泣), many of Japan’s kanji are connected with water, and include the 氵radical, signifying water droplets.

This looks so relaxing. What kind of yoga class do I have to take to do this.

Reading Thomas Harris’ novel “Hannibal.”

Hannibal hasn’t even appeared yet and he’s already being a little bitch with his dramatic stationary and petty comments. 💅🏼

So iconic.

I read a Japanese poster about this and briefly wondered if I were illiterate because the idea made no sense.

I give the Anime Sickos money every month and I don’t even really like anime or gaming (sins).

This podcast makes me laugh and also makes me glad to be alive. They wrote multiple audio dramas and made a game!

Frankly, Cog Talk is the only business insight you need.

Listen to this kickass show!
I have been having kind of a very difficult year. One thing that I can depend on and feel good about is my work on Anime Sickos Podcast. It is a unique and hilarious show and I am deeply proud of it and myself as a host and producer. It would kick ass if you could give it a listen.

🦕🦖GINKGO🌿🍂

“The ginkgo tree is from the era of dinosaurs, but while the dinosaur has been extinguished, the modern ginkgo has not changed.
After the atomic bomb in Hiroshima, the ginkgo was the first tree that came up. It’s amazing.”

-Nakanishi Kōji (中西香爾 1925-2019).

Going to the gym at 7:30 AM like a person lowering themselves into the rough sea to get bashed into rocks by the waves.

If you ever visit Chicago and want a good (and/or haunted) day trip:
This is what you're actually looking at, btw. An exceptionally cool piece by David Wallace Haskins called Image Continuous. 3 sides are mirrors, but the 4th is this, a view of the sky framed by a reflection of the woods. It is ever changing, ever responsive to the conditions above & around the cube.

Feeling bad? The cure is a big bowl of soup.

Still feeling bad? Have more soup.

Me, every five minutes while watching this stupid show: “Tony Soprano is the fucking Devil!”

The Sopranos was visionary for its portrayal of a selfish person using Therapy Language to get what they want.

It is very funny to me that someone could read The Iliad and think, “I want to be like Achilles!”
