Nail Update 🥚🫧 🌧️

folks need 2 log off

we told the guy at the basement punk record store in Osaka how much we pay for rent and his eyes bugged out. good reminder that in many places people simply choose to not live like this

going to need a new hustle to survive when i get back home and im actively thinking about how much i could make flipping japanese records in nyc

elle this is why we get along

tbf she was on the younger side and this was like 2018

she was kinda shocked at how frank i was but also repeatedly expressed shame throughout the entire encounter and talking about “change from the inside” nonsense

one time a tinder date told me she worked at palantir but “not on any of the bad stuff” and i straight up told her that’s no excuse and i wouldn’t fuck her because she’s a cop

if you have ever worked for this company you are now either devoting your life to material and spiritual atonement or you are a despicable person

Gay surrogacy and gay adoption are predicated on the idea that gay men (or women) have a “right” to become parents. This idea is not only morally insane but also logically incoherent. It’s exactly like jumping off a building and claiming that you have the right to fly. Nobody has the right to defy the laws of nature. Where would such a right even originate? Two men cannot be parents. It’s impossible. Doesn’t matter how they feel or what they want. It cannot be. The only “right” at issue here is the right of the child. And the child has a right to be raised by a mother and a father, not two men masquerading as mother and father.

Great work to all the transphobic pickme gays because you're next on the menu

i simply would not write product reviews for the gadget that is widely known as “the pervert glasses”

a busy Shoutengai shopping street in Osaka crowded with young people and many signs

大阪にもカッパばかりではない…

Love this! Scapegoating AI art on disablility is trash, people with no hands paint with their feet. Artists through history are disabled! I'm one & tons of my homies. And bad art is great! People are allowed to make bad art. I wanna see every shitty amateur poem written for National Poetry Month!

omg thank you!! 💗

wow yesss thank you!! do you know where the store is? i’m searching but cant find on maps

despite everything life is kinda ok atm

someone who is good at Japan please tell me where i can buy a plushie of Minkuru, the mascot of the Toei Bus line

yes i’m very sad i missed the Long Furby bar

a rack of records below a sign that says “listening and reading is OK” in japanese , and a long white furby peering over the edge on the right

a table with a calculator, tray filled with coins, and a mail slot for inserting paper money with instructions on how to pay for your purchases

a table with a row of colorful furbys next to paper bags labeled A Hole Zines

an elevator door covered in Palestine and squatter “N” stickers

went to an anarchist record store / zine shop in Tokyo and there was no shopkeeper, but they have written instructions telling you to drop paper bills into a mail slot and then take your change from a tray (and also a lot of Furbys)

found the one remaining Hanami spot in Asakusa 🌸

dj’ing a rave in Tokyo at an airport on private land owned by the survivors of an antigovernment uprising has gotta be one of my top 5 life experiences

wake up babe, Fingering 2 just dropped

A 'Self-Doxing' Rave Helps Trans People Stay Safe Online At a New York party, attendees spent Trans Day of Visibility dancing, DJing, and learning how to become less visible online.

New for @404media.co - On Trans Day of Visibility, I went to an OpSec party that teaches trans people how hunt down their old data (to be less visible online) 🫥
