It's funny watching the #StreetFighter League Finals and the March #sumo basho simultaneously this evening.
The Ryogoku Kokugikan looks really odd to me with chairs and a stage. There's no old folks for the teams to fall onto!
The hosts sure have swag that puts NHK and Abema casters to shame. 😎

What song do you think this 2002 J-Drama about a poor family who owns a ramen shop used for its ending theme?
Make a guess, then click play. You'll be wrong.

Federal gov workers are going through some bs right now. I really appreciate @altfws.bsky.social for getting this permit through in time for my birthday. 🎉

Time for another round of the fun game "Why did I wake up in the middle of the night last night?"--is it anxiety? Perimenopause? The rapid deconstruction of my country and our democracy?

Concentration camps preceded extermination camps by several years. They began in Germany just as administratively, just as innocuously, as this.

He's done it!
The YDC has voted to promote Hoshoryu to yokozuna.
Just a bitty formality to go through with the JSA in a special board meeting, and he's in the books.
Congratulations Hoshoryu.
