It's 40c+ degrees in Tokyo. The heat dome makes it worse. This is hell. More trees would really help.

Interesting election in Japan today. Sanseitō (racist/Maga equivalent) has picked up a seat in Tokyo for the first time. Right now has 8 seats (not a lot), but will probably gain more.
What's clear is that the "Jimintō [LDP] Forever" era is coming to an end.

To imply that this wasn't planned from the moment Trump was elected (or before) is completely deluded. Trump is a Russian asset and that has been known since he first ran. Traitor.

This is the reality in Costa Rica rn. High criminality, cartels/narco fighting for territory, no investment in education, destruction of the Caja (social healthcare system), bankruptcy of local farmers, terrible infrastructure and just a really expensive country to live in. Absolutely tragic.

Jfc, can't you hire someone and do a decent campaign for what is actually a really nice city (if you include Vieux Hull)? Absolutely terrible advertising.

Aaaaaand a segment in which they ask people if they're ready for the big earthquake. They're really emphasising this!
My bag is ready but more water doesn't hurt.

So #GundamGQuuuuuuX Is.. fine? I guess my expectations were really high, so I was a bit let down with the first 25 mins or so. It's more Sunrise than Khara, at least at first, and the film is worse for it. Sadly it ended in one of the best parts lol; wanted at last 40 more mins.

You know things are REALLY serious when they're showing an ad at the cinema saying there's a 70% chance of "the big one" striking this year. #earthquake #Japan

Just absolutely CRAZY at Toho Cinemas Shinjuku today. Merchandise already sold out, on the first day! Probably resellers since only the shows at night are close to being sold out. #anime #GundamGQuuX

Random pics of a quick visit to Akiba. It was on the way, I swear! Checked out the Playstation 30th anniversary shop. It had some nice shirts but nothing I thought I needed so I didn't buy anything.
