From LA, lives in Gunma, Japan. Here you will likely find bikes, beer, pizzas, burgers, and ramen. Maybe some video games and coding. You know, stuff.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a little dog is sleeping on a couch, kicking its paws. A person says, “look! The little kicks!” Panel 2: in awe of the cuteness, the person continues, “what do you think he’s dreaming about?” Panel 3: in the dog’s dream, the pup is wearing a captain’s jacket, holding tightly to a wooden ship on stormy seas. In his other paw, he is gripping a harpoon as an enormous vacuum cleaner breaches violently from the water.

This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.

Electric Vehicles xkcd.com/3214/
Comic. [Person 1 talking to a person with shoulder-length hair and a person with a white hat.] PERSON 1: I would never get an electric vehicle.

So, my question - what is the word that fits: “I am a ______. I don’t drive so I don’t kill animals.” “I am a ______. I don’t burn hydrocarbons to prevent anthropogenic climate change.”

I will digress a bit here. But, I feel like using the language of religion to define your beliefs seems pretty effective. I’m sort of surprised there are not more examples.

I am a bad militant cyclist. I drive. I have driven. And I can count every animal I have made not alive by driving. I don’t enjoy it. I morn for each and every one. But the speed at which my militant vegan friend dismissed this concept always gave me pause.

jeshizaemon @jeshizaemon.bsky.social · 01/02/2026
But something always bothered me about that. The logical disconnect, to me, as a militant cyclist was always… “but what about all the animals you hit with your car?”

So this the point where I get to religion. I applaud vegans for taking the wording of religions. “I am a Jew. I don’t eat pork.” “I am a Muslim. I don’t eat pork.” “I am a Hindu. I don’t eat beef.” “I am a vegan. I don’t eat animal products.”

You're absolutely right — you found it, it's been with you a long while, and it's only natural to feel fond of something that's served you so well, especially when someone like Gandalf suddenly seems to want it for himself.

I was fretting that I wouldn’t be able to wake up early enough to start the pulled pork to be ready for dinner. So I stayed up late and it is cooking now. There is no drawback to this plan.

A play on the Morton Salt girl. She has black hair and medium brown skin. Her dress is blue with yellow details she has red shoes, a red umbrella, and a red bandana around her face. Under her arm, instead of a drum of salt, she has a round bundle of dynamite sticks stuck as you may see in a Bugs Bunny cartoon or being used by outlaws to blow up a train track in a cowboy movie. The long fuse is lit, of course, and she’s walking in front of a mottled yellow background. Lettering following the curve of the top of her umbrella reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

A digital illustration of an Octophant. An African elephant head sporting an additional seven trunks like octopus arms. It is colored mostly in sea green shades with a watery backdrop. Three trunks hold objects of a certain symbolism: an hour glass, a scythe, a skull. The head trunk and one trunk above the head hold flowing orange banners attached to little sticks with lettering which when read together reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

Earthquake Prediction Flowchart xkcd.com/3165/
Comic. Someone is claiming to predict the exact date of a future earthquake. Should you listen? [flowchart: start] → NO (There are big earthquakes constantly, so if anyone ever *does* figure this out, it will be immediately obvious that their method works and then the world’s seismologists will not shut up about it. You won’t need this flowchart.)

Flash forward to now and here I am, sitting in my kotatsu in less rural Gunma and enjoying a Baileys Coffee on this cold, rainy Halloween. I had a tinge of regret that I wasn’t headed to a party for this rare Friday Halloween, but I am happy to be warm🎃

And there I was, in the middle of rural Gunma and just depressed as hell. I went out for a drive that night, listened to loud music, and did not come back until the wee hours of the morning.

I come from a very Halloween-positive household and neighborhood. My parents threw epic Halloween parties. Our neighborhood had such good trick or treating that people bussed in for it. And then I went to UCSB for uni and experienced some wild Isla Visa Halloweens.
