So hot… Hit around 35°C again today. Felt like trying something different so I pointed the camera at the sky.

With a brutal summer ahead, I hit Tokyu Hands for festival gear: a clip that hangs a water bottle from your belt, and a hat I spent an hour choosing.

The tickets and gear lighting up my summer: a three-day ROCK IN JAPAN pass won in the second presale, a-nation, and everything I’ve assembled for festival season.

FACTORY, a Fuji TV underground music program, apparently holds a special event once a year timed with Odaiba Kuni — that’s LIVE FACTORY.

I’ve been into medal pusher games lately. (Past tense now.) Still had medals left in my bank, so I went to burn through them.

It finally arrived: the ThinkPad X201. First-day impressions from a former X24 user — the solid chassis, that full-pitch keyboard, and the trusty red TrackPoint.

Watched Shirushiru Mishiru last night and they did a segment on AD Hori-kun. He seemed a little embarrassed. Fair enough — it is a huge photo.
