Reductive Theming

I changed this site’s theme. Why?  Because I can. I don’t love it but I don’t hate it either.  At least everything matches for now.  It proved to be almost impossible to do what I really wanted to, but I’ll try again later. I picked a slightly reductive font for the header.  Why?  Because it’s fun.  After all, this blog is about Japan and Japanese stuff.  Right? Well, if you don’t like it, you know how I feel about that by now, I guess. Will I be posting more?  Probably,… Read More »Reductive Theming

All sorts of updates and stuffs

I have a bunch of stuff to talk about, and some updates, too!  Let’s start with the updates. The first update is, I opened a new blog.  You can find it at animelife.blog.  This is actually a little bit similar to Texihabara (which I will be repurposing or closing soon, and I should have done that months ago), but this is stuff I actually want to talk about, instead of just trying to make content for the sake of making content, which is what Texihabara was.  I will be reviewing… Read More »All sorts of updates and stuffs

Anime Changed My Life

Hi. I haven’t posted here for about a year now – almost exactly a year, actually.  Has it been that long?  It doesn’t seem that long, and it almost seems longer.  I came very close to just deleting this entirely, and I’m probably going to go through shortly and hide many posts that I’m not proud of.  Some I’ll keep though.  I did move a lot of content over to hiddenjapanese.com (and I need to add more), and I have a few projects I’m working on. So, what happened to… Read More »Anime Changed My Life

Why this Blog was (Mostly) a Mistake

So, before I come to a conclusion on this blog and answer the question in the title, I need to put forth some background. I announced earlier a project I’ve been doing called “Lovely Lily Lives”, or just Lily for short.  I’ve been writing her for around four months now, and to be quite honest, I don’t know if I could write any other character at the moment.  She is exactly the right character for me to be writing at the moment.   This is because she is giving me as… Read More »Why this Blog was (Mostly) a Mistake

More Bloggy Blogging Bloggery

Today, I had an appointment I’ve been putting off for quite a long time.  A couple of years ago, I went to see a dentist, and we had some plans for work that needed to be done.  Then I needed to raise the money.  Then COVID hit.  Then I was dealing with crippling anxiety.  Well, I finally managed to do it, and, well, I get to keep most of my teeth.  Yay me?? That was actually a worry of mine, so, for now, at least, woohoo.  We’ll deal with the… Read More »More Bloggy Blogging Bloggery

Project(s) News

Updates on this site and other associated projects: So after having moved to self-hosting for a couple of days, there are some upsides and downsides.  I don’t believe new posts will appear in the reader anymore, and subscriptions appear to follow to the old site.  This is going to mess things up for the short term until I figure something out.  That will probably take the form of an increased social media presence, but I need to be a bit careful with that.  There will be news coming on that… Read More »Project(s) News
