Penguin random house is being targeted for their stance in favor of DEI. I guess I know which book publisher to support.

I sometimes briefly regret forgetting to take a picture because I am busy enjoying the moment.

That waffle was damn tasty though

Small park discoveries abound. People always say Tokyo is a concrete jungle but these delightful little parks are in so many places just waiting to be discovered.

Reaching out to people on the regular is a habit that takes time to build, but you can start with one person and just ask how they are doing.

If they don't respond, that's fine. You can try again with another person a different day.

If you reached out to someone to say happy new year, why not follow up with how did it go? Or what did you hope the new year brings?

If you've taken the time to reach out in the first place, it's only one more sentence to check in on them.

My tired brain is often barely able to form coherent sentences in Japanese. I wish it was more automatic 😭

Have started watching tasokare and am enjoying the premise even though it's supposedly based on a game?

Is there anyone else that still loves writing letters. I get joy out of using pretty stationary and writing down my thoughts

I didn't realize some mangas just get left hanging without any updates on what's happened to the author or if it will ever continue

I'm an introvert cosplaying as an extrovert. I would really rather be a wallflower, but that won't get me friends so I push even though it's incredibly draining.

I don't have "just do these 5 things, and you will have a fulfilled life" tips.

The older I get, the more the wisdom of Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy resonates. Towels are so useful
