My state just passed regressive surveillance legislation. @bsky.app, I know it's not your fault, but there's no way I'm giving you my SSN, credit card, or ID in order to read DMs. Sorry to those who've DMed. I can see the notifications. That's it.

Congrats! When I read the announcement earlier, I thought it sounded like a cool series!

07.10.2025 22:07 — 👍 4 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0A minor note is that Kinme actually does wet cleaning rather than dry cleaning. クリーニング is typically translated as dry cleaning, but as we see in this series, it doesn't always explicitly refer to that. When we talk about this manga, we describe the shop as a "cleaning service" or "laundry service."
