  • The Peggies – Buriki (Lyrics + Translation)

    I’ve mentioned this band before, but I decided to make a translation for one of their songs, Buriki. I’ve struggled to find a translation online so here you go. The bridge is top-notch. 日本語 新しい物は沢山あったけどどれもつまらなくて嫌になるのわたしは貴方だけよ貴方だけよブリキの人形みたいなわたしの恋心 赤い色に染まったカーテンの向こう生産されては吐き捨てられる生ぬるい欲望ゴミ箱に捨てられる始末そんな物には興味が無いのよ 分かってよ貴方は違うでしょ?貴方はちゃんとわたしにくれるでしょ?くれるでしょ?くれるでしょ?愛をもっともっと溢れるくらい余っても余っても余っても足りない貴方のところから動けない 赤い色に染まったカーテンの向こう骨が軋むくらい体がバラバラになるくらい愛したって、何も残らないじゃない 貴方は違うでしょ?貴方はちゃんとわたしにくれるでしょ?くれるでしょ?くれるでしょ?愛をもっともっと溢れるくらい余っても余っても余っても足りない貴方のところから動けない ああ悲しいああ悲しいな落ちて壊れてしまいそう ああ悲しいああ悲しいな愛し合うために踊ったのに ブリキの人形みたいなわたしの恋心ただただ貴方が愛おしいだけなの貴方だけなの愛して欲しいのくれるでしょ?くれるでしょ?くれるでしょ?愛を愛をもっと、愛をもっと余っても足りない余っても足りない貴方のところから動けない English Even though I had a lot of novel things, they were all…

  • Wingmanning

    Over the past few weeks I’ve reconnected with a few friends. I’m grateful to the people in my friend groups who have been open to hosting a handful of us at their place. Being able to reconnect and shoot the shit about the good old days have led to conversations that bring me back to…

  • Sharing Services

    When streaming became widespread, cloud-native media companies threatened the traditional model of subscription-based cable TV by offering a service which blended both on-demand and classical subscription services into a single monthly subscription. Despite the massive amounts of disruption that companies such as Netflix spearheaded, in recent years it’s almost as though we’re regressing towards what…

  • Rapping About Stonks

    I wrote this shitty rap back in February when I knew that my stocks would make me rich (spoiler: they didn’t). Thought that I might just put it on my site so that future me can have a good laugh. Apologies for profanity. Lyrics are below. The song samples Red Cream Soda by A$AP ANT…

  • Giving People Rides

    One of my only joys in life is driving people. There’s just something about it that’s so relaxing to me. Some of my friends think it’s weird; I’ll drive for road trips without asking people to switch out with me, and I’m always happy to be the person picking people up or dropping people off,…

  • Girl meets NUMBER GIRL

    The saddest moments of my life are when I discover an amazing artist… only to discover that they’ve either disbanded or are part of the 27 club. Within the past year, I discovered an amazing band called きのこ帝国, or kinokoteikoku, or Mushroom Empire. Unfortunately, they disbanded back in 2019. kinokoteikoku is a post-rock shoegazer band,…

  • Fucking Around

    At an old company I worked at, we had a kettle that could continue to boil as long as you didn’t put the lid on and a mini-fridge what had a completely frozen freezer section (you can see the block of ice). The bosses of the start-up were in China, it was Friday, and I…

  • Thank You Tonegawa

    Readers of the blog, you might be wondering: who is this “Tonegawa” and why must he be thanked? My friend and her post are partly responsible. A conversation we had led us to this scene from the anime, Kaiji. Tonegawa is one of the antagonists who, after laying out a life-or-death game, delivers a monologue…

  • 2021/06/22

    Just got back recently from camping with a few friends. Having our main core and a few additional people join each trip has gradually become the trend; it’s hard to find people who are actually interested in camping, although we’re looking rather slowly. The latest person to join our camping squad is a pretty incredible…

  • Boredom

    Boredom’s a powerful force. As a survival instinct, it makes a lot of sense; we strive for new experiences which may lead to developing new skills or a better understanding of the world. However, boredom can be quite the painful thing to alleviate. Recently, over drinks with a friend, we shared whatever ennui we felt…
