On my first trip I gave a presentation for my art class on Himeji Castle. Many of the historic sites in Japan had to be rebuilt after WWII as they were either burned or bombed by the US. Himejijo was one of them that survived! (It was also really freaking windy that day)

I just put in my application for a tour of the Tokyo Imperial Palace. My trip is less than a month away so I'll start sharing some pictures from my first trip back in 2016. The Osaka cityscape and a flower garden:

As a fairly non-crypto person (I'm an IT guy but not THAT into it), I still really like Farcaster. Maybe it will get worse with more users, but it's a pretty chill place. There's enough non-crypto talk to have fun with many other topics.

I wonder how on Earth social media platforms with these clauses deal with unauthorized redistribution. Like with platforms' AI scrapping everyone's social media. People post things they don't have "rights" to all the time. It's like making a deal with the man across the street to take his neighbor's house 🏠

I got over half of chapter 29 finished today. Turns out all I need to be productive is a winter apocalypse.

I've read my own book several times this year, that counts, right?

I'm not sure how you could work in IT and not believe in a higher power. When a user approaches you with a problem, and your mere presence miraculously fixes it, you are the higher power in that moment.

Question for crypto Japan people: How prevalent are places for you to cash out Yen from a crypto wallet? I'm planning a trip next year and want to know how viable this is as an option for currency exchange.

This is so nostalgic for me haha. My favorite teacher in highschool was the drunk Japanese teacher I found on the internet. https://youtu.be/-YhCXZgOz0c?feature=shared

I have developed the incredible superpower of being able to catch double spaces at a glance. Did you catch it?

Anyone want to talk about Arcane season 2? I thought it was... bad! Here's my expanded thoughts (spoilers in the replies): https://x.com/michaelofstjoe/status/1860545156627231075

Went dark over here for a bit, wasted a lot of time on X but also got really back in to studying Japanese. I'd like to make some threads from my first trip before I go on my next one next year! Still writing my book, made good progress on that too.

I'm on chapter 7 of my (millionth) revision of Act I of my fantasy novel. I have 2 (maybe 3) people lined up to beta read. Hopefully it's good enough to entice them to read the whole thing!

Writers, I am begging you, please stop memory-wiping your main characters. I know why you do it.

I was so tired last night I forgot to backup my manuscript. I'm giving up on resisting the temptation to re-read my whole WIP. Hopefully a refresher and making a few edits will get me out of this rut.
