Our son is about to be 1, one of my best friends just came down with COVID, it's unclear if us, our son, or our friends will be able to protect ourselves through vaccination. I can't believe the times we're living in are so crazy. #vaccineswork #covid

I've been getting the odd craving to paint some clouds.
I saw this on Twitter thinking it was a post condemning these policies on how horrible and outlandish they are, only to find the OP was in support of them as well as those commenting. This is disgusting and horrifying, what is wrong with people? #politics
Lives of geisha and their apprentices, I definitely recommend watching The Makanai on Netflix. It's very faithful to their daily lives ^^ it was adapted from a manga and has an anime adaptation too ^^ you can also follow certain geisha on Instagram from all over Japan~
Yeah absolutely! They're very active. Kyoto is probably the most well known and is much more in the public eye compared to other areas. They have the gokagai (5 districts) that are super historical where the geisha and their apprentices live and work. If you want to see a more modern look at the
Absolutely geisha still exist today. Their numbers aren't as big as they were in the peak of their profession, but they've been stable around 2,000 actively practicing for over two decades at this point. There are districts scattered all over Japan with the biggest ones being in Kyoto and Tokyo
These are both maiko ^^

Do these numbers ring any alarm bells for anyone else? #politics #2024election
I'm sorry, what?
Don't worry, those conspiracy theories are already being flung around on the bird app. Seeing a bunch of self proclaimed military experts try to explain that Mexico was training a ship modeled after the 1800's to attack America is a whole new level of mental gymnastics.
Man that's so scary. Our baby is eating purees now, I picked up some baby food right next to this stuff. This is one of our fears from food safety standards being lowered.
They're such an iconic pair~
I don't think he has a clear position on vaccinations or an understanding of the rigorous testing they go through, he's saying there need to be more studies on vaccines as if they're not one of the most thoroughly researched and tested healthcare products out there. His entire family is vaccinated

Soooo pretty~
Family went out for paint and sip for May the 4th. Total success~ #starwars #maythefourth #maythe4th
Poor thing starved to death
Ooh! Did you have a chance to visit Bath? Totally different city vibe~
I can't believe Dr. Baby is already almost 8 months old! Time flies for sure
Yeah, I have a friend who is adopted, he doesn't have access to his birth certificate
I've never played Oblivion and honestly only played Skyrim a little bit, definitely feeling the urge to give the remaster a go
You have to come at it like no one else on the road is paying attention, because that's the case with an alarming number of people
To find themselves accomplished in any of those ways, even after completing their apprenticeship. There's different examples I can give for various geiko that have reached different accomplishments within their profession ^^
Yeah, they're not prostitutes. They entertain and host traditional banquets at ochaya called ozashiki. Geisha can claim accomplishment in a few different ways, whether that's financial accomplishment, artistic accomplishment or accomplishment through respect from her community ^^ it does take years
Being accomplished as a Geisha is a little open to interpretation and can vary from person to person.
I'm a little confused by this article as the city they mention has many older Geisha practicing, maybe they just meant for new recruits? The more experienced geisha are normally in higher demand as they've had longer to hone their craft.
We try to do what we can to encourage a good ecosystem within our garden, releasing ladybugs every couple years has helped a lot^^ we've seen a huge jump in our population of native green anoles, a bunch of different butterflies and a ton of bee species and birds building nests ~ it's been great
This is the reason my husband cancelled our pest control. Now we try to do more natural pest control for our garden, things like predatory insects for destructive bugs. Our garden is teeming with native wildlife thanks to his efforts.
Binging Ru Paul's Drag Race and doodling. A nice end to a hectic day~
Okay it's too hot, we desperately need rain
