Exactly! More specifically, they use their syrinx. An organ in their throat which allows them to make sounds that humans would normally use their lips and tongue to make.

You don't actually need to free their tongue, that's just a pointless surgical procedure. But many corvids are very good at imitating human speech. Fable the raven is a great example, she has tons of videos on YouTube.

One of the things I miss about Japan is pickled plum onigiri. I'm gonna need to check the local Asian shops for umeboshi and see if I can make my own.

This is how "vikings" actually dressed like (a prince in this case). Not that black and brown biker jacket nonsense they are depicted like these days. Colour! People always liked colour!!

I seriously want a Japanese toilet for my home, they're so nice. Built-in bidet with multiple functions and heated toilet seats.

I made it back to Europe. While I'm glad to have proper coffee again, pretty much everything else is better in Japan. The food, the konbinis, the vending machines, the toilets that clean your butt for you, and the sensory overload that is Don Quijote. Good lord that store is an experience.

As soon as I have the time and money, I'll probably be heading over again. Both me and Arty had a wonderful time. :3

The trend in paleo/cave art is cool but it is teetering on the line of some traditional Indigenous art yfm? I've seen people discussing tribes/cultures around the art they draw as if those cultures are a thing of the past 😕 I hope artists take time to research the styles they are inspired by

Met up with @jmr0303.bsky.social for the last proper meal in Japan before heading to the airport ultra early in the morning. Finally got around to trying omurice, and he gifted me a bag of durian chips. :3

I made it to the top Fushimi Inari shrine in the dark and rain last night. Incredibly beautiful, but a bit of a tripping/slipping hazard in the wet and dark. So worth it though.

First onsen experience yesterday evening, followed by a vending machine fruit milk on the balcony with a view of Kanazawa. Quite possibly the most relaxed and content I've ever felt in my life.

About to head off to Nagano! I'm gonna miss the little Inari shrine near our hotel in Tokyo. It's so beautiful and cozy. Made me so happy whenever I walked past it.

We went to TeamLab Borderless, an interactive digital art installation in Tokyo (super cool and highly recommend if you ever get the chance) where one of the sections allows you to make a crayon drawing, have it scanned, and then it's animated and projected onto the walls.

Came across a small Inari shrine close to our hotel. The contrast of seeing things like this in the middle of a modern city, right next to a random street, is so wonderful.

Hrafn Corvale @hrafncorvale.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

So, after landing in Tokyo, one of the first things I saw was some sort of demonstration. Not sure what it was about since all the signs were in Japanese, but one person was holding a large progress pride flag (the one with the intersex symbol included). So that was pretty cool to see. :3

Also, even if they WERE socialists, that's not why they were bad. The nationalism, xenophobia, antiaemitism, racism, warmongering, eugenics, queerphobia, and oppression is what made them bad. Not their god damn fiscal policies.
