“I have usernames older than you.”.
Holy shit

Five stones against a shodan. Somehow managed to bungle this. Did alright in the next game though!

All I can think about is Jeff Bezos saying that he slashed jobs at the Washington Post — including those of foreign correspondents in the Middle East — based on "the data," and a few weeks later a whole war breaks out in the Middle East that these laid off folks would have covered as true experts.

"... The statesman who yields to war fever must realize that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events.”
– Churchill

“Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy, or that anyone who embarks on the strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. ...

March and April. Remember, the board itself can be a weapon.

The whole conbini situation is what originally put me off it, but I can imagine the yatai vibe working well. Will keep an eye out for it!

sorry, Hanzomon

The place was in Toranomon and it was pretty spectak. I do believe I've changed my mind about oden.

Having betrayed with a careless remark my long-held and near-totally irrational prejudice against oden (stemming from an unfortunate encounter in a rural conbini 20 years ago), I am now being press ganged into giving it another shot at what my captors assure me is an upscale purveyor.

Found em! Cancel the martial law order, sorry about that, sorry everyone, I found my glasses, we're all good now

The French Dispatch is really good eh. Edifying and revivifying on this rainy Tokyo expat night.

Effed around and bought one of those height-adjustable book stands that swivels cause you know I read like that. It's gonna be good for playing through pro go games, too.

He took the blue spot, which is in the spirit of my first choice, but a lot more bold and flexible. Will be interesting to see how this develops, and whether Shibano can turn his lead in this game into a 2-1 lead in the series.

Tomorrow is going to be bizarro warm. Even tonight feels weird.

My calls for white's sealed move in game three of the Kisei title. Ichiriki is in a tough spot; if I'm him (which I most certainly ain't), I'm doing something to try for a clutch of points up north.

Tennenbaums and Budapest Hotel are on Netflix. Downtime sorted.

Hard to overstate how wild this is

It's wild that we've come all the way back round to broadcast hosts reading ads in the middle of their programming. 1938, eat your heart out.

Somewhere, someone is blowing dust off of the LDP's 2012 draft constitution.

Yesterday at a library I encountered a book sterilizer.

Likkle jelly of the snow volumes around the world right now. Can the Kanto plain get a few centimetres? Can we eat too?

Hope this slab lives forever. It should be turned into a giant waterfall.

The triage is wild in part because they're so tactically advanced. They seem willing to tenuki from positions I would be scared to leave alone. It's confusing, but I also get the feeling that my brain is absorbing something my mind will sort out later. Thank you for sharing your read!

Looks like he shored up the wall, but one opening below where I thought he might.

Time to guess the sealed move in today's Kisei title match. I'm just a lowly mudansha, but if I had black I'd either prioritize the farmland up top, firm up my wall in the middle (the better to fight with), or make a huge knight's jump to a hinge that can swing between the corner and the side.
