i had such a good time but im too busy thinking about this they have to know

The way oomf and i were going to the kc store popup after work and our train line to akihabara was literally all canceled for the evening so we had to survive a terrible line change thru shinjuku and take a whole ass detour but we made it. Nothing will keep us from yugioh #PowerOfFriendship

have to be at the airport before 5 am for my flight back home on friday... sick and twisted.

wife is sending me cat pics while i'm at work and . Uooohhh....... the girls 🥺🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️

its only 23 celsius but i am sweating in the damn office already like i know i wasn't made for tokyo summers because even the spring is getting to me. remote job in sapporo please...

finally it didn't rain yay #photos

trolled by spotifys "artist you listen touring near you" emails cuz i see the names and i go REALLY⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️ bc no one ever comes to finland esp smaller indie acts then i realize its just telling me about concerts in japan because im here rn..... tch.........

This one generational for real

generation shock at a party with oomf where one (1) person was 18 and he had no idea what yugioh is and he didn't even recognize Yugi when shown a picture of him. sick and twisted

left my umbrella at work because it wasnt raining by the time i left so i didnt think about it...NO.............

Work didnt have enough keys for me so i cant use the backdoors 99% of the employees use so every time i make a konbini run i have to go thru the main door and the polite doorman is like お疲れ様です and im like thank you for real but im gonna be back in three minutes with a latte from famima ❤️

sick and twisted of my employer to put me in a central part of tokyo with an unnamed tourist attraction nearby so like its late at night im recovering from a migraine and im cramping, im looking scuffed as fuck running to the pharmacy before it closes and i have to get thru a sea of ppl taking

university sent me an email like "will your studies be continuing in the fall? enroll for the fall semester now!" WOULDN'T WE BOTH LIKE TO KNOW, BUDDY

joy is your workplace being in the suburbs so you always have a place to sit on the train bc barely anyone is going there in the morning or leaving from there in the evening as its usually the opposite. my peaceful daily monster hunter portable 3rd playtime

wind in tokyo straight up demonic tonight

CYGAMES HAS FORCED BANDAI SCAMCO TO DO THE IMPOSSIBLE

my closing thoughts on localization talk is that the reason why you hear about so many disastrous video game localizations is simply because of the natural bias for negativity. things that are bad will always get more attention than things that are good, this is just human nature unfortunately

thank u for the bday wishes i am smiling sneetly at you all. love and peace

birthday miracle cuz i had some shoes i wanted from GU and when i went to the store after work every damn floor had a long ass queue at the registers ☝️ except ☝️ for the floor where the shoes i was hunting for were at which somehow had no queue at all

helpppp i came home from work and the apartment staff (its a serviced apartment for business travel) had left me a birthday card with a handwritten note from all of them 😭😭😭 n they gave me two packages of fancy bath salts LOL... aaawww. I guess u guys do have my personal info birth date included.

Coworkers treated me for lunch yaayyy birthday curry

happy birthday tessie!!!!!!!! in your honor i will find one random couple today and tell them to get a divorce

its my birthday i get to be a little annoying about localization. As a treat

idc abt whatever dramas on but the take that "i don't trust my game to be translated faithfully if i don't know those languages to check they all match my vision" is so weird like you have to trust that localizers are the experts of their own language(s) and culture(s) like. That is their job...

father, have i done something to displease you? #talesofsymphonia

had such a nice weekend with friends yet i feel so cheated my birthday is tomorrow on a monday... if no one at work goes to lunch with me ill [remembers i cant joke about blowing places up especially in a foreign country] be mildly disappointed.

feeling like such a greedy bitch when i go to caffe veloce to study and i get a food set that comes with a free drink But also a fancy coffee drink bcuz im craving it n its like ooohhhh look at this white girl with her laptop and 2 drinks.............who does she think she is honestly

i think most japanese communities online i follow have moved away from using "normal love/coupling" to refer to hetshipping so like whenever i go to a doujin store or sth in japan and i get hit with Normal Coupling i kinda lose it for a bit like it is unfortunately funny

had a really Finnish time in shimokitazawa today like it was actually scary. suomi mainittu but at what cost

yayy went to see sakura with emi and i got asuka nui at last !!!!!!!!! also found a really cute jacket at a thrift store for 2k yen. huge win

i think katakana words are mostly easy to figure out but カフェオレ took me until i saw romaji under it to be like Oh my god its AU LAIT. Like i admit im dumb as fuck but also there has to be a better way to convey that in katakana. Yes please i would like one カフェ俺

[30 years into the future] me: you know netflix used to send films by post my amazon smart watch: 0.3% Productivity loss detected. Hourly rate reduced to $1.12 for 7m21s. Please refrain from talking on the packing line. Please say "Productivity" to acknowledge me: productivity

the prophecy fulfilled

Its a beautiful day the sun is shining and it is friday and i only have a few hours of work left and a notorious christian MP in finland got convicted for hate speech against homosexuals after the case dragging for years and her being backed by notorious influential US conservative groups like....

if i lived near uguisudani i would start a whiskey company and name it ウイスキー谷. any entrepreneurs in tokyo feel free to steal this

went to karaoke w my coworkers and it was so good but this is the only picture i took

i know i picked my laptop well cuz i just went to a cafe to work on a translation test after work and as i was leaving i momentarily freaked out abt forgetting my laptop because my backpack felt sooo light but no... it was there... my precious 1 kilogram fujitsu laptop... ily fujitsu laptop...

its so embarrassing when you ask someone something and they have no idea wtf you mean and there's no language barrier even (talking to an english native in english) so you're just feeling straight up like an alien like Ok sorry i havent been to earth before i guess. i dont know words. first day

if i dont get at least one extravagant strawberry parfait or something similar while im in tokyo then literally what did i even come here for. like yeah technically im here for work but like #whatsthepoint

i don't wanna generalize because i don't know every country's architectural standards but like i feel so naked every time i'm overseas and there's only one door at the exit of an apartment/hotel room/etc. in finland u almost always have two doors at the exit for insulation and sound proofing

it's true that konbini food is overrated by tourists like hugely so ☝️ However ☝️that famima 醤油と鰹節の旨み醤油焼うどん pan-fried udon....fuuck yes bro never lets me down

Placeholder assets in a game should look obnoxiously temporary, so obvious that no one would mistake it for the final asset. In past games we've used the doge dog (rip) as an icon, hot pink versions of characters, our CEO's head, etc. If you use a temp asset that seems passable, it may stay there.

took my digicam to this gig at mod shibasaki and the pics turned out so dreamy and fun. awesome gig

i was looking for local shoegaze gigs and found one this sunday so i headed out to this suburb 1 hour away from my apartment in tokyo and there was absolutely no way to go there but to switch at shinjuku. which i hate. but the gig itself was good. ppl there were like "how'd u find this" lol

every time i see my header image i crack up its truly the gift that keeps giving. just like the true creators of life: Women

keep thinking about this train i was on where every single ad placement possible was for taiheiyo cement and one of them was this woman looking really shocked with the text スゴイよセメント and nothing else. all day ive just been thinking to myself sugoi yo semento ...

made me laugh in a gunpla shop btw delling cutout: no, that thing is a gundam. because i've decided so. gundam hiding inside a z'gok: how could you tell?
