Alicia Haddick/アリシア @ Tokyo International Film Festival

I can now, finally, share this: I've wrote a book! And you can order it! Driven by never-before-seen access to his archive of storyboards, props and images and one-on-one interviews, Archive: Shinya Tsukamoto is a deep dive into the creative process of the cult indie director

"I don't want to work at this place anymore:" EA workers decry mismanagement and corporate greed after mass layoffs Current and former EA employees paint a bleak picture of daily life at one of the video game industry's most prominent publishers

I’ve seen 4 films at Tokyo Film Festival so far, and one I enjoyed… luckily the last film of today so hey, that’s something nice to end the day on

39, Ado!

What a fun and goofy event Complete with an hour talking about Chiikawa, Chicago pizza, and playing arcade versions of Taiko no Tatsujin and Rhythm Heaven’s ancient arcade version on the giant arena screens

Ado concert today!!! A fan club only event!

The sushi place me and @kambole.bsky.social went to this evening had an exclusive promotion campaign for people in their 30s

Buy the last shirts, they’re cool! They also come with a book I wrote that might also be cool

Pennywise???

With a certain @kambole.bsky.social

#一口で優勝

It might simply be the best movie ever made And no, I didn’t cry when Country Roads started in the opening seconds

I can see a situation in the next few years where banks are forced to open new branches and take all banking services offline, and I’m not exaggerating

AI isn't good at empathy. It's good at sycophancy

Are y’all thinking what I’m thinking?

Also I need to share another story that is taking over my mind JR have installed goats in Yotsuya They want to clear an area of grass for work So they hired goats. To eat the grass. They’re gonna be there until December “or until they’ve everything”

I gotta wait for the end of the Tokyo run, but OMG the Miss Saigon Japanese run looks great (they have split casts for a few roles but most of the ppl here are also doing my performance!) Love how Lumina, the Kim performing I’d Give My Life For You, sounds here, and she’ll be my Kim

It’s so forced I’m so sorry, this is the worst promo for a group with good music and I can never get through a single one if I stumble on it The very not-acted walk to stumble on the streets of New York

oh well, maybe next time

I know I had the delivery slot for a parcel between 8am-12pm, but that doesn’t mean I actually expect you to deliver the parcel at 8:05am

How many times does it feel like mismanagement at the top leads the everyperson to take the brunt of the consequences?

Kubi is great! Genuinely good at subverting the genre

I am getting notifications every minute at the moment of a different website or app telling me they’re shutting for PHP maintenance Which is the right thing but like The internet is FUCKED for the next 24 hours

This is actually somewhat unprecedented, paying out of pocket the hotel and travel for people who went to LA for the canceled concert But it shows what goodwill can do! They’ve made BILLIONS on the game and this will cost like $300k or so. And it’s a nice thing to do! umamusume.com/news/100113/

Masahiro Sakurai Says Gaming Needs Originality Or It "Will Die Slowly":

The way I've seen this described is more of a direct adaptation of the book than as a visual novel, but it's clearly using their trappings. Either way, with them involved, it should be great, very curious on it

Trying to become the girl who uses 僕 We’ll see how this plays out

Hearing someone speak in what I can only call "Japanese announcer voice" using words like エグ and エモ to describe the reactions of people feels like such a clash Those words should only come from a teen girl's mouth in a sickly-overactive reaction, not a news reporter neutral tone

To think, I was asked recently if I would consider going to the US again... whether I'd get in the country/get deported would be high on the concern

It’s that time of the year again! (Begin to create my schedule for Tokyo Film Festival and feel a mix of excitement and dread for just how busy I’m going to be over that period)

Working like this makes me feel so sophisticated, until I get distracted by it and lost in the music

I’ve been in inaka Chiba for the concert but had a great time! Especially catching some friends This touring concert they do yearly was fall instead of Spring this year but the fun places for an outdoor event tied to local community always makes these a highlight

I’m here for a concert with friends! 久しぶりのももクロライブ

Heading into the 田舎 Never to return (I will return)
