attempt 2 to just fight through it except this time I'm gonna go to the local diner when it opens.... It will heal me...

I'm so profoundly jetlagged

I'm ngl it was a nonzero amount of my desire to go to Japan (obviously not all of it, but it was a little bit of it haha) and it was NOT easy to procure

this trip was so life-changing and now america sucks even more by comparison and I am extremely jetlagged at 5am and I have to work my normal boy job tomorrow, but at least I have the Big Wiimote now

home and can't sleep so some more photos of my last day in tokyo

i gotta capture that beautiful truck.... on gameboy!!

SUCCESS!!! WOW!!

Speedrunning will name tricks "Super Skip-Skip Boostless", "Stupid Room" or "John Speed" (because John discovered it and it makes you faster)

Last night in Tokyo. Staying in Ikebukero tonight. Tokyo at night is just insanely beautiful

I have to go back to America tomorrow. I don't want to leave Japan. This was 9$ here

my father's lon lon ranch

unfortunately I've yet to find a self hosting service that does everything I want -- jellyfin is pretty good for my needs but does some stuff that really annoys me. I think that's probably the inherent curse of FOSS alternatives made by hobbyists haha

hmm

put your feet in the fish
Do it.

I own 3 motorcycles and I am not even a tenth of a percent as cool as whoever owns this fuckin GOKU MOTORCYCLE I saw outside a store

from the Nintendo museum -- HUGE Mario gaming

moss temple was insanely beautiful, I think that final shot of the boat is one of my favorite pictures I've ever taken

For reasons too complex to explain here, I wrote an Apple II program designed for Early Modern Age Catholics to determine if they're allowed to have sex with their wife, or if it'd be a sin.

Here's the video of it running.

culture!!!!

experiencing culture in Kyoto today!!

they were singing in Japanese so I was just yelling the chorus in English haha! It was quite an experience

went to the Nintendo museum and they don't allow pictures during the exhibits but I acquired my WONDERFUL SON who is only sold in the Nintendo museum in Kyoto and was a nonzero amount of my desire to go to Japan haha I'm so happy.... now how do I get it back to boston lol

the bar staff really liked fall out boy and sang dance dance with me. The bartender was slightly annoyed with the owner (who as far as I can tell drinks for free all day), she said something along the lines of "he's loud and annoying, but he's a sweetheart so I haven't quit yet." What a night haha

Akira had a surprisingly good singing voice haha

Akira the owner (left) and Shin (middle) we're the drunkest I have ever seen a human being. Shin kept kissing the top of my head and yelling HAPPY BOY! HAPPY BOY!

on a whim we ended up at a bar in dotonbori and the only people there were the owner and his friends and they were absolutely shitfaced. The owner had been drinking since 1pm and was on beer 21. We made him sing Simple And Clean on karaoke haha. He was so great

[weakly, like a man who has not stopped drinking in 10 days] b-biru kudasai...

hey "nice" manbun haha it fuckin sucks you hipster asshole [he turns around and reveals he is a waddle dee from the tokugawa shogunate] oh fuck

Dotonbori!!! Like from Yakuza!!! Majima's house!!!
