There's a mall here with restrooms you have to pay to use, and I can tell all of it goes back into the restrooms themselves because they're some of the nicest shitters I've ever seen.

They rival some of Jakarta's luxury mall restrooms.

They're a microcosm of how a proper society should function.

There's this incessant ringing somewhere in the distance, like microphone feedback, and it's driving me crazy

No, it's not my tinnitus this time.

Idea:

Classic Nisekoi style harem romcom except the male lead actually gets caught during the obligatory "onsen peeking/entered the wrong bath" plot

And the heroines just don't forgive him

Ever.

The rest of the story is then just him trying to repair his relationships

I sometimes wonder if gyarus actually exist in real life or if they're just an anime thing. It felt like you got gyaru characters here and there in the 2000s before a long period of gyaru drought until like, the late 2010s. Suddenly every other school romcom features a gyaru heroine.

Shrimp Rule #?

The fake is of far greater value. In its deliberate attempt to be real, it's more real than the real thing.

It's hard to keep track of all the birthdays going on, so this music recommendation is for everyone who will ever have a birthday. I will not wish anybody happy birthday as a result. When it's your birthday and for whatever reason you want an Indonesian man doing the most tenuous shrimp roleplay to wish you happy birthday, you can refer to this post.

Is this politics? Idk, I think it's been enough years.

This was unironically how I found out about the original Baker Street song. Like, the sax riff would play in my head from time to time, but I had no idea where it was from until I heard this parody.

Could I have recommended the actual song instead? Maybe.

This one was a real underground classic back in the day. Shame they had to break up because of KK's allegations.

This was the most embarrassing wordle round of my short career. I share this as a cautionary tale of the dangers of consuming too much MSG.

The "manna" guess was kinda elite.

I don't know why I thought it would be a person's name. I was lost after it didn't accept "fanny"

What the fuck is a janny, why did I think of it, and why did it count as a word?

Do you like weird experimental jammy instrumental math rock? Probably not, but I'll recommend a song of that sort anyway.

The drummer is otherworldly. Absurd chops on this track, mixed by none other than the late great Steve Albini. Really strange grooves, especially towards the latter half.
