As billionaires, the wealthy class and ai tech bros try to privatize knowledge and erase human curiosity, another form of resistance is to stay curious. Do your own research. Do not be spoonfed your ideals or opinions. Use your library. Think for yourself. It's very important that you do.

Xifang Temple (Moss Temple), World Cultural Heritage, Nishikyo Ward, Kyoto City., Japan Photography by Katsu
Winding gently through a thick velvet carpet of emerald moss, a sequence of flat, slate-grey stepping stones (tobi-ishi) leads the eye toward the serene depths of a woodland sanctuary. Scattered across the vivid green ground, freshly fallen maple leaves (momiji) burst in brilliant shades of crimson, maroon, and rust, forming a natural autumn tapestry beside the stone trail. The soft, dappled light filtering through the overhead canopy highlights the rich contrast between the damp moss and the fiery foliage. The photograph evokes an immersive, tranquil sensory atmosphere: the cool, humid scent of damp earth and moss rising from the forest floor, the soft hush of falling leaves, the gentle rustle of autumn air, and the quiet, rhythmic weight of footsteps treading slowly along wet river stones.   Captured within the revered grounds of Saihō-ji (commonly known as Kokedera or the Moss Temple), a UNESCO World Heritage site in Kyoto’s Nishikyo Ward, this landscape exemplifies classic Zen garden architecture. Originally converted into a Rinzai Zen temple by the distinguished monk and garden designer Musō Soseki in 1339, Saihō-ji boasts over 120 varieties of moss that blanket the grove, thriving in the damp climate along the foot of Mount Matsuo. The implementation of tobi-ishi (stepping stones)—pioneered in tea garden design (roji)—was intentionally conceived to guide visitors through the space at a deliberate, contemplative pace, forcing one to look down, slow their thoughts, and engage in walking meditation. The meticulous preservation of this living landscape across centuries reflects the highest spirit of horticultural monozukuri (artisanal mastery and devotion), where temple gardeners and monks carefully tend each patch of moss and maintain the delicate ecological balance.

#MoriNo I’ve sat with Shigoro as a name for so long I forget I made it up. I could change Junna’s surname (Sagawa as my backup) but changing Shigoro’s would be HARD.

I'm not doomed, I'm just late
A comic about feeling doomed. Bex is lay on the floor with her head down. She says,  "It's too late for me... I fucked everything up... I took too long..." She suddenly lifts her head and says, "then again, I'm always late..." Sitting up,  she says, "And it's usually fine..." Finally standing on her feet, she says, "So why am I worrying about it?"
