I'm the star of The Emily Kane Adventures. Feel free to ask me any questions about them, or why I have more than one name. [Hint: my mom thought it would be safer that way.] Here's the latest one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07LDYRCQQ

“He made 2.5 million today and he made $900 million. That’s not bad.” Sounds like market manipulation to me. That’s bad.

The most corrupt administration in American history wants you to look the other way from this. We can't. We need answers.

I just finished binging 爱的二八定律 [English title: She and Her Perfect Husband] with Yang Mi and Xu Kai. It is delightful and a surprisingly subversive satire of the old Confucian values within the business world. I really love Yang Mi. She has a high nasal voice and it really grows on you.

A friend of mine was a student at this place. They have a campus in Annapolis as well as one in Santa Fe. I was right across the street at the USNA and occasionally met 'Johnnies' around town, attended their evening lectures, went to their parties. The most amazing students I've ever met.

In any other administration of the past 80 years, the defense secretary and the national security advisor would, following an equivalent scandal, now resign.

Trump is marginally more popular than last time, but he's *historically* unpopular compared to other presidents.

Haruna Miyagawa, my countrywoman. Such precision and depth of tone. www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4Ih...

I'm very much enjoying 'The Witch.' I don't mean the hyper-violent movie -- though I loved both of them, maybe because I can get hyper-violent on occasion, too. The Witch is a TV series about a girl who is cast out of her rural town because her neighbors are convinced she brings bad luck.

Freedom is just another word for nothin' left to lose Nothin' don't mean nothin' hon' if it ain't free.

Who doesn't think Pacific Rim is one of the greatest movies of all time? I mean, they spend more than half the movie simply punching kaiju, and then it occurs to them they have a sword. And then there's the immortal line, "Elbow rocket!"

I don't normally read American newspapers, but a friend sent this link to me and it is really funny. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/s...

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

Another show I watched recently, 不討好的勇氣 [the English title is Later I Laughed], about a mid-level corporate type who throws it all away to do stand up comedy in Shanghai. The star, Li Geng Xi, is wonderful.

ohhi whatcha doin

Started watching 星汉灿烂·月升沧海 last night. The English title is Love Like The Galaxy for some reason. It's a brilliant costume drama set in time unspecified 'classical' past. Zhao Lusi is marvelous, a subtle comedienne with a knack for conveying a nuanced pathos in the role of the abandoned child.

Shrimp tempura udon at a restaurant in the Tokyo Central Station. It's a surprising feature of Japan that some of the best restaurants are found in the trains stations. I suppose it is a way of underlining a principle: 物の哀れ

Good doggie!

I don't see the problem

I think of this guy as my protector as I search for a middle way. Does that make sense?

Yeah, rings. Saturn has rings.

Wut? Sometimes you just need a few extra arms... and faces.

Who is this, you ask? It's Yotaru, my cousins' Shiba-inu. He's now allowed in the house.
