Edo Kiriko: Shimmering Art for Your Table
Edo kiriko glassware is one of Japan’s most coveted crafts, prized for its complexity and beauty — here's where to buy it.

#Japan 🇯🇵 finally got their first female PM! Unfortunately, I don’t like most of her far-right political views, such as opposition to same-sex marriage, desire to amend Japan’s pacifist constitution, support for anti-immigration policies, and downplaying of Japanese war crimes.

New visual and promotional video for the one-hour sequel special 'Undead Unluck: Winter-hen'.
The episode will air on December 25, 2025.

Figured it was finally time to watch Audition (オーディション, 1999) today. Always meant to.

Audition (1999)
Seven years after the death of his wife, widower Shigeharu seeks advice on how to find a new wife from a colleague. Taking advantage of their position as a film company, they stage an audition. Interviewing a series of women, Shigeharu is enchanted by the quiet Asami. But soon things take a twisted turn as Asami isn’t what she seems to be.

(Alltags)Dinge, die ich von #Japan *nicht* vermissen werde:
- nervige Jingles in allen Bahnhöfen und Bahnen, Geräuschüberflutung generell
- (fast immer) überfüllte Bahnen und Busse
- Kleine Zimmer
- sehr restriktive Rauchverbote und sehr versteckte Raucherbereiche
- Der soziale Druck, man könne ständig in ein Fettnäpfchen treten

Congratulations to Japan on electing your first female leader!
I find this incredibly ironic… because Japan is often portrayed, with reason, as a place with deep misogynistic traditions/a highly patriarchal society that carries on to this day…
But here they are, finally breaking the government’s glass ceiling… and Canada? The USA? Many European countries?
A reminder not to throw stones in glass houses!

(Alltags)Dinge, die ich von #Japan vermissen werde:
- Überall Automaten mit recht günstigen, oft auch warmen Getränken
- Überall (fast immer) saubere öffentliche Toiletten

- Konbini, die immer verfügbar sind und das wichtigste anbieten
- sehr freundliches, hilfsbereites Servicepersonal, das (fast immer) auch da ist, wenn man es braucht

The top hot spots in Tokyo: Revealing the impact of climate change through data fusion
Global climate change is making temperatures hotter, particularly in densely populated cities, which can adversely affect the health of residents. While mitigation efforts are urgent, it is hard for urban planners to identify exactly where to target as accurate, long-term climate records created over fine spatial scales have been unavailable.
