Picked up some bad habits during covid like doom scrolling. Never did that before - hated spending time on my phone. I’d always get the shittiest smallest refurbished phone, kept fixing it, replacing parts as it broke (so many cute tiny parts! 🥰) Now I have a mid level phone that’s only 3 yrs old. been using it to consume media and games - actually no longer games, just media. Recently made it so that it turns completely monochrome during the evening hours. Let’s see how effective that is.

Found my mom’s old English book that has a bunch of expressions referencing the literature it comes from. I guess she used it to study when she was young.

There’s an e-ink device called the Boox Palma that is only slightly wider than a mobile phone. It runs Android and takes photos w flash etc. if it were a phone I’d seriously consider it ok. I dunno.. it looks v cute and calm to me.

Are businesses named acme exclusively for old cartoons? I thought it was like a generic american business name. Like the foobar of American entrepreneurialship basically.

Too soon

guess what!! you can pre-purchase helldivers2 on steam. i love helldivers so much, i can't wait for the new version to drop. ✨

A curved digital panel at an escalator that I pass often. Are you thinking what I am thinking? But what if it’s not?

Browsing local twitch yesterday, saw a streamer playing this game https://store.steampowered.com/app/2653790/The_Exit_8/ looked interesting. They were literally trying to escape the room!

I forgot to post this before but this is an activity at the Tokyo Auto show a few weeks back. Basically if you’ve seen the Teamlab activity where you draw a fish and it gets scanned and put into a projected aquarium with other people’s drawn fish swimming about, then this is similar. You draw a race car and then it gets scanned and you can race it against other people’s drawn cars. It was cute to watch.

Is it even possible that maybe it's actually taken a whole week to recover from the flu vaccine? I feel so much better today. My body has basically been like fuck you kaho, while my immune system is like, i will take this as a learning opportunity thank you. i guess... 🧍🏻‍♀️

Tokyo International Car Show 2023 aka Japan Mobility Show was fun. 🚗 “some days don’t go well…” 🤷🏻‍♀️

Here's the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y48Q_lFTPds

I saw a Taiwanese film called Old Fox at the Tokyo International Film Festival and it was really nice. I think it’s global opening was a few days ago at the festival so maybe it will be available elsewhere soon. Kinda hard to get it out of my head even though it’s been a few days.

i got the covid vaccine two days ago, and i maybe exerted myself too much today... i want to vomit. ew, side effects. i need to get the flu one soon, it's supposed to be craycray this year.
