"Proof that magical girls (fighting girls?) existed in the Muromachi Era"

Text of original tweet:

Ritual mountaineering axe with heart‑shaped openwork. Japan. Nanbokucho to Muromachi period, 14th century AD. Forged iron head; wooden shaft spiral‑wrapped with a bronze strip; H 179.8 cm, blade 28 x 25.5 cm. Collection: Nara National Museum. Classified as an Important Cultural Property.

Those two hearts are not about romance. In Japan they are inome, the boar’s eye, a very old apotropaic sign cut into weapons, temple fittings and even windows to draw off misfortune and summon courage. The motif has been in use for well over a millennium and you can still see inome windows at temples like Shōju‑in in Kyoto.

An interesting tidbit in the joint status report filed in the Broadview ICE facility case today:

ICE says video from inside the facility "between October 19, 2025, and October 31, 2025, has been irretrievably destroyed" and can't be produced in discovery.

www.courtlistener.com/docket/71832...

Defendants have indicated that some video between October 19, 2025, and October 31,
2025, has been irretrievably destroyed and therefore cannot be produced on an expedited basis or
at all. Plaintiffs are in the process of hiring an IT contractor. Plaintiffs’ contractor will meet with
the government’s ESI Liaison (with attorneys on the phone) to attempt to work through issues
concerning the missing video, including whether any content is able to be retrieved. While
Plaintiffs intend to explore the issue of missing footage,

Really wanted to draw a quick Sumino as well, so here's a sketch I did

All I'll say is that I hope Maya Imamori is doing alright, and that she knows she's appreciated 🖤

Black and white sketch with magenta highlights of Sumino from Gozyuger, standing with one hand on her hip and holding up her right hand with her Sentai Ring. There is Gozyu Unicorn drawn in the background behind her.

Oh absolutely the fuck NOT. This just made potty training genuinely terrible. No wonder my parents were always angry....

Joyce Carol Oates absolutely reading Elon Musk for filth is pretty incredible, but something I'd point out is his feigned interest in games, and how fake that was, paying people to boost his accounts and play for him, and the rare time we actually got to see him play, he was absolutely miserable.

I finally realised what AI dependency reminds me of

A mock-up of an old D&D guide detailing the properties of magical items, featuring "Altman’s Quill of Artifice". The entry reads:
This enchanted quill, made from the feather of a harpy, serves as a magical scribe and sage, able to answer all its owner’s queries. The owner must use it to write a question at the top of a piece of paper or parchment, such as “Where is the secret entrance to the King’s treasury?” or “How can I cure lycanthropy?” Acting under its own power, it will write an answer. But despite its apparent (and often genuine) usefulness, this item is cursed.
Roll d20 to determine the result of any query: 1 Hopelessly wrong, 2-5 Contains major errors, 6-10 Contains minor errors, 11-16 Accurate but incomplete, 17-20 Fully accurate.
Apply modifiers in line with the rules for consulting sages (see Table 62) depending on the nature of the question (general 0, specific -2, exacting -4) and the availability of relevant knowledge (complete 0, partial -2, non-existent -6). The DM should choose the nature of any errors, as well as the consequences of believing them.
If the answer is less than fully accurate, that will not be obvious, as the quill of artifice writes in a confident and authoritative manner. A reader may scrutinise the answer to attempt to notice any problem, but to succeed they must pass an intelligence check at a penalty of -2. Anyone who has previously failed such a check makes all future checks at -4. The owner of the quill is particularly vulnerable, permanently losing one point of intelligence with each inaccurate answer that is believed. The owner will be unaware of this loss, and will become fiercely possessive of the quill, refusing to give it up and distrusting anyone who doubts its output.
A remove curse spell may make the owner willing to part with it, but the loss of intelligence is irreparable.

Alarmingly, like officials in Utah, Harrell often claims that "we don't sweep, we treat" people, which (with very limited exceptions) is just not true. Like most cities, Seattle treats homelessness primarily as an aesthetic problem.
