When your pre-addressed, postage-paid Mail-in Ballot envelope is missing the "City, ST ZIP##" line in the To: address...
Really, guys? I mean, never attribute to malice that which can be explained by a query error, but that one is dang disheartening, VA.
We reported it to my state's Dept of Elections, who said they are correcting the error. All this to say, it might be worth a second look if you're dropping your own ballot in the mail.
Concerned for @rjblaskiewicz, in case this camera also captured his PIN# Number.

Do you know the Japanese for the constellations and planets? Learn the words and then head out to a field with your new vocabulary and a telescope for some stargazing. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2024/09/18/language/stargazing-japan-planets-constellations/ #life #language #nihongo #vocabulary #space #astronomy #planets

Local woman looses faith in the chronological sequence of events. She can’t believe what happens next.

At the first-ever Onigiri Summit, the humble rice ball became a mirror held up to modern Japanese society. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2024/09/08/food-drink/onigiri-summit-rice-ball-japan/ #life #fooddrink #onigiri #riceball #tokyo
I... uh, may have developed a slight Abunai Deka obsession (think Starsky & Hutch, if they were Yokohama cops in the late 80s).

This is really important for understanding the source of right-wing libertarian/conservative covid + vaccine misinformation and dismantling of prevention measures we face in Western countries right now: https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/stanford-university-will-host-a-conference-on-pandemic-planning-featuring-the-usual-covid-19-suspects/
Spent a chunk of the weekend trying to finish my application for rental privileges from a local video rental store.
Completed the online verification steps. Now I need to go in person at some point this week to present my passport, proof of address (e.g. water bill), and employment. Some time after that, if the government documentation gods smile upon me, I might actually get to rent a DVD. 😅

It's only a murder of crows if there's probable caws.
Another day, and I find wifi when I can get it. It comes in waves.
When I moved to Japan, I bought a 5-year journal. Throughout 2022, I documented the process of settling in and learning the "bunka" and progressing in にほんご、visiting new ところ like "京都" ya 東京, soshite gengo wo manabu koto no kata. 2023年日記（にっき）に 何数のかんじが 現れたね。手書きが 着々な 変えた。2022年に これを 見たとえば 読んだことが できないだったと思います。
