Many, many years ago, before this could possibly have been the work of AI, I added the stupidest iron-on patch ant I've ever seen to my Amazon wishlist and it'll probably stay there forever.

This Suica announcement is still reverberating across JP social media. Honestly, between this and "Takanawa Gateway," everyone in charge of business strategy at JR East should be fired

@iainnd.bsky.social I bought this. It wasn’t terribly cheap either... It has components on it so I think it’s functional in some way but it came with zero instructions.

A little while ago, Apple Music added an auto-DJ sort of thing where it mixes the end of one song into the next one, and I have mostly left it alone... however, I just had shuffle on and it made a *disgusting* mix of Fujii Kaze's 'Garden' into ABBA's 'The Winner Takes It All'. It was impressive.

I feel like I didn’t even look up that much super touristy stuff on my phone in Japan but *every single* suggested post, recommended video etc since coming back home has been some unrealistically perfect Japanese scene laid over a song from the Your Name soundtrack. Or an “underground” food spot.

I thought I would try a fancy hotel room for a few days before going to a regular one in Tokyo. I have to use two elevators and tap my room card at no less than two “security door” looking things to get to even arrive at the room. A nice lady showed me what all of the room’s buttons and screens do.

Thus far I have had precisely two interactions to speak of where I tried to use Japanese:
One in which I asked a question about the trees in a garden and it was understood and went swimmingly,
And dinner just now where the shop owner went “you good at Japanese?” and I said “lol no” and he laughed.
