This is the video.

ICE gunning down a bystander just seven blocks from where George Floyd was killed. Seven blocks. I lack the words to properly contain my rage at this time.

I told people how to wire money to Japan properly when people were sending money to KyoAni after the arson attack.

I can’t fix all the political nightmares that await us next year, but I can totally create a fun distraction for you ❤️

End of year! Time for my picks of… The Best 10 Albums of 2025! alright let’s get on with it. Here comes da thread…🧵

Merry bug murder everyone

Today, Japanese rap group M-Flo released a music video set in a dystopian future in which all human produced music has been replaced with AI. The music video was made with… AI. I’ve had trouble summarizing Japan’s unhinged attitude towards AI, but this sums it up quite nicely. Thanks, M-flo!

Simply Having A wonderful

Look at the whole thread. Confused Waymos boxing in a bus. Blocking an emergency vehicle. Driving through an uncontrolled intersection is NOT an "edge case." Sure seems like those kids in LA this summer had the right idea.

I try to focus on posting about art and comics and not my complaints about the state of everything but GOOD GRIEF

Come to Japan with me!

🌸COVER REVEAL!🌸 I'm thrilled to say that Daughter of a Thousand Faces Book 1 will be printed by Inklore Books next year! Like Chinese Fantasies? Raging girls accidentally adopted by morally reprehensible demons? This comic is for you. PREORDER HERE! www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/747047...

Jimmy Fallon: “And do you use DKC Returns when raising your baby?” Reggie Fils-Aimé: “I cannot imagine figuring out how to raise a newborn without Tutorial Pig and Super Kong. You’re actually holding the umbilical cord!” Jimmy Fallon: “Haha, great, great, I can’t believe it.”

A US-based tech company doing something with Japan that they didn’t approve of? I am SHOCKED. Someone give me some pearls to clutch.

I've enjoyed Drew Gooden's YT essays for a while, but holy shit he summed up the entire state of the world and capitalism in 33 minutes.

“You’ll be visited by three spirits.” The three spirits:

I was kind of shuffling from thing to thing after my initial “dream career” in academia turned out to be a nightmare - when a then-acquaintance (now close friend) told me I should do travel stuff as a career since “I’m really good at it” ❤️

Having one of those tough moments of being torn between voices telling me I’ve earned a break and voices telling me I’m not working enough. The joke: Both are true!

i would never let Earthworm Jim near my kids

Loving how Japanese netizens are upset by the SUICA penguin “graduating” but don’t seem to mind when every idol group ever has a “graduation” for group members who are too old according to some record company exec~

HAPPY PUMPKIN DAY from a Most Dread Pirate!

So I’m hella behind on posting #evantabi updates but I’m gonna catch up the fun way, ok? Ok. For Day 14-22 I was in Seoul and Busan. There are MANY good Korean mascot characters and such so… let’s put them into a Final Four-esque bracket. For, ya know, research. ROUND 1:

woke up knowing everything, I think? @mike-eagle.bsky.social

Starting my influencer ASMR unboxing life with these new super legit straight out of the box LaBlorbos! #merch

there are now more iphones than final fantasies

nothing like getting solicitation emails like this right while my ex-guests ping me for free advice I swear to god, I should just name my autobiography “crying in the Shinkansen” or some edgy shit like that

Confession: I’m like three weeks behind travel posting here and I grudgingly admit it’s because alt text is something I either spend ten minutes a pic on or skip entirely

スイカ割り

Someone who wishes I'd sell sandwiches and pastries instead.

I mean they’re gonna call us evil whether we condemn violence or not, so I’m gonna just ignore them and continue arguing for a platform of mandating we do nothing but eat pudding and post photos of cats for the next 48 hours

What he said I agree with.
