Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 25/06/2026Had to go and see Back to the Future: the Musical, a story that needed neither extra songs or a stage production. Impressive practical effects, though. 000
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 12/03/2026Wanted to try out my new gravel tires and also check out the spooky Tamako tunnels before riding around the lakes. Chose a very circuitous route involving riding to Tachikawa, riding along Zanbori river to catch the abandoned railway line to the tunnels. Not really worth it in the end but was fun. 100
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 05/02/2026Social media seems a bit dead for me recently in terms of actual communication and visibility but my son passed the JHS entrance exams for both his first AND second choice schools and I feel like shouting it from the rooftops a bit. 010
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 16/01/2026With apologies to those affected, having my workplace be closed down on my birthday due to the power outages on the Yamanote is absolutely fucking great. 000
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 10/01/2026Due to the Sagawa website not accepting a romaji name, I can’t specify when I want my delivery to come and I’ve had to waste an entire day at home (it still hasn’t arrived too). Fuck you very much Sagawa! 000
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 07/01/2026Day started off bad as I got an umbrella caught in my front wheel and cracked my carbon rims but I found a bargain set of second hand DT Swiss wheels for 13,000 yen so I’m strangely feeling that I came out on top. 010
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 23/11/2025My first tank vs. my second tank. I feel like I’ve improved a completely useless skill (fish actually probably prefer the first tank anyway). 010
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 23/10/2025I rode up the Arakawa into Deep Saitama to go to the Happy Time Cafe where I did indeed have a Happy Time. 030
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 12/10/2025Just spent 2 hours fixing a rear puncture on my wife’s mamachari. It would be a 5 minute job on any other bike but it’s like some decided to choose all the terrible, obsolete bike technology of the 20th century and put them all on a piece of shit steel frame. 010
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 10/10/2025In bed with the flu and watching some films I never got around to seeing. I’m currently watching Ocean’s 12 which just did a great 180 when Julia Robert’s character is asked to play Julia Roberts herself in a heist as she ‘looks just like her’ and they’re desperate.media.tenor.coma woman wearing sunglasses and a black jacket talks on a cell phoneALT: a woman wearing sunglasses and a black jacket talks on a cell phone 000
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 15/09/2025I think I’ve had it with aquarium shop employees in Tokyo. Whatever question they’re asked, the answer is always ‘Yes’. ‘Can I buy just one of this fish?’ ‘Sure’. ‘Can I feed it Doritos?’ ‘That’s fine’. ‘Will it thrive in a tub of lava?’ ‘Go for it’. 000
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 08/09/2025Just my pet crab hanging upside down in a menacing fashion despite (I think) being herbivorous. 130
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 02/09/2025Saw that Alien was showing at Toho, Shinjuku. Got my ticket - screen 12. Found my seat. Layout looked a bit different but OK. Started with a preview of another film which turned out to be the whole film so I must be in the wrong screening room. Film finishes. Double check - I’m in Screen 12.

Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 10/07/2025My wife works in a psych hospital and tonight, in the middle of the storm, one of the patients escaped from the secure. Apparently my comment about how it sounds like the start of a Batman film isn’t as funny as I thought it was. 110
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 06/07/2025Spent yesterday reading this. A great, easy to explain setting (Hunger Games/Squid Games + Lost) but very unique game mechanics that I worry I’d struggle with. 120

Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 16/03/2025Watching Grosse Pointe Blank this afternoon for probably the first time since it came out.

Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 23/02/2025GMed another session of the One Ring yesterday. The lore and game supplements can’t be beat but the combat system is horrible and unnecessarily complicated and I dreaded any of the players getting a crit as I’d have to work out which randomly named star they’d be rolling against. #TTRPGs 010
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 20/02/2025Just had a bunch of kids come up to me at lunchtime, saying that they’re looking for a teacher to take charge of their martial arts club.

Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 15/02/2025Went to the students art exhibition at my son’s school this morning and bumped into his art teacher. She started saying that he has the ‘soul of an artist’ and is on another level compared to the other kids. So rare to get this kind of praise from teachers so we’re not sure what to do with it. 120
Koenji Prince @koenjiprince.bsky.social · 12/02/2025I know it’s a silly premise but I’m watching ‘65’, expected a fun action film but it’s just a hot mess - wrong camera angles, cheap production design and a soundtrack that seems to have been lifted from a different film. 000
