Noooooo! There's a pretty edition of The Last Unicorn from the Folio Society.... but I can't order it rn, because of Japan 😭
(Also I'd need to order their Howl-collection as well)
Really hope it will still be available in May or so.

Car for three days in Japan rented.... still a bit nervous about this one.

But it's going to be okay for sure... I'll just be going my own pace
🚗☁️

Night view of East Berlin. The city lights of the TV Tower and other buildings reflecting in the Spree River.

You know the view from Oberbaumbruecke at night can be quite nice... if you ignore the smell of pee on the "historish" side.

🤬

😤

Ich danke dir vielmals. Kann für die Touri-Option die Karte wohl am Flughafen abholen und wage es einfach mal 😅

Does anyone here have experiences with Mobal Voice & Data Sims in Japan?

Can't use an eSIM on my phone, plus I'd like to be able to make calls in case there's trouble with the rental car.

Mobal seems to be the only SIM provider with voice options. But is their mobile internet any good?

Es war ganz fantastisch 😌💕

Und ich guck jetzt mal nach Sneaks, damit ich dich vielleicht öfter ins Kino kriege.

Dai and me in front of a standee of Ryan Gosling a Grace from "Project Hail Mary"

View of Berlin TV Tower from Warschauer Straße at night.

Lovely evening with @daiyame.bsky.social and Project Hail Mary ("Der Astronaut" in German). Definetely worth a watch. So glad I could see the preview before my vacation 💕
(Everyone go and see it when it comes March 19th!)

On another note: I need a key chain or sth of Rocky 🥹

“And what kind of king would Camelot want?” 🏰⚔️🐉 #merlinbbc

Aber tapfer war das schon von euch 🙈

I mean.... London is always worth a visit (just itself incredibily expensive)

Tbh though - I have to save a lot of money for this trip and the flight is almost twice as expensive as 9 years ago 🥲 I really wish I could go more often to Japan.

💀 man am I looking forward to be flying over the Caspian Sea in like three weeks or so...... 💀💀💀

Is it too late to change to a flight over the north pole?

(Reposted because I got the sea wrong still... who knows where that part of the world will be in like three weeks)

Finally good weather and of course headaches from hell.

Ich freu mich 💖 und bist auf der Liste

Jahresbudgets sind durch und die Firmen dürfen einstellen.

(Daumen sind gedrückt)

Finished the last book of the Emily Wild series last night.
@thedressylibrarian.bsky.social recommended it and it definetely was the right choice for me. Fairy+scholars+Howl-esque male lead 😌💖💖💖
(Also not explicit - which is a welcome change from current romantasy stuff)

😮‍💨 One of those days after which I need some sort of social palate cleanser.

Could barely keep my cynicism in check today.. and it's not a mood I want to be stuck with in my freetime.

Wondering if anyone would be up for a spontabius trip to Prague later this year or during winter next year?

I really want to go there again 😌💖💕💖💕

(As soon as my finances recovered from my Japan trip next month 😶)

On the bright side: Nothing makes me leave the hellhole of YT Shorts faster than annoying AI-VoiceOvers 🙈

Don't get me wrong - in general I would support anything that helps people and cultures understand each other better.
But let's be real - currently the only goal is probably to set up another tool for manipulating public opinion and making people even more dependent on technology

Youtube is pushing Auto Voice Overs again.... it seems to be better qualitywise but I still HATE that I seemingly can't turn that "feature" off.

I guess different people being able to understand each other, without their technology is not in the interest of our tech overlords.

View out of a window at Dussmann onto Friedrichstraße station.

Good evening with @lellycoraxon.bsky.social at the new(ish) Dussmann Café 😌💖🌸💖🌸💕

Also hopefully a good spot to meet up with Berlin people after work more regulary.

Ach mist... aber vielleicht sehe i h ja noch was in irgendeinem Wald&Wiesen Starbucks 😅

Ich meine, ich bin in einem monat da....

Alle direkt blocken 😶‍🌫️

(Mach ich teilweise mit sus neuen followern)

Our main project management tool made some major changes in their UI and... oh god I hate UI changes 😭

I just want to do my work and find all the information where it's supposed to be without a dozen extra clicks 😭😭😭

Meadow on Mount Aso

The caldera of Mount Aso

Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu Shrine

Area around Takachiho Gorge

Kyuushuu - wenn ihr es euch zutraut - Auto mieten zum Erkunden.

Ansonsten einen Nachmittag für Wanderung auf den Aso. Allerdings nicht ab ganz unten, sondern eher ab der vorletzten Station.
Takachiho ( Amanoiwato Schrein & Schlucht), Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu Schrein - aber das alles mit Auto.

Also... the silent uneblieving chuckle whenever some handyman(???) enters my crafting room / mess is a source of pride for me 😌✨️✨️✨️
