The first week of J-League always makes me so happy.
Also happy that Kyoto is back up. I hope to catch a game with my kids at Nishikyogoku this summer 😎 https://twitter.com/J_League_En/status/1496280897699540992

I have my eye on this on https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/59789300-revisiting-japan-s-restoration
Alex Kerr’s Heart Sutra was a fun read.
By all accounts Amy Stanley’s book on the Edo period is eminently readable.
Also @meijiat150 has a ton more resources.

I mostly do Meiji, foreign policy, or Buddhism kinds of history. I have lots of recommendations in that zone. Not particularly familiar with literary history. I do recall on the latest @BooksOnAsia podcast David Joiner mentions some books on authors 🤔 That is a good listen too.

Give us some ideas of what you are looking for and maybe we can give recommendations? I file lots of books on my Goodreads shelf that I hear about via NBN, or academic Twitter, or BoA, or ARB, etc. There are so many! 📚

I went to Koya-san between Xmas and New Years in 2017. It was really cold! But such a lovely place. The ropeway was still down so we had to take the bus up those twisty mountain roads… I really should write a travelogue… anywho, check me in my Koya PJs!

Yup, it kicked my butt too. But I am pretty positive I had Omicron in January. The nurse warned me it would be bad if it was Covid. It took a couple days until I felt all better.

I got today’s in one too. I love geography, and have played all sorts of games to memorize countries in the past. But this shows how much we need the context of a map. It can be challenging! I am terrible at identifying the small island nations 😅

Also, feel grateful to have moved to Kyoto, which is so walkable. It was just by chance that I chose to go there in 1999. I am always reminded of how special that city is, and I am lucky to have lived there.

Yep, hence my use of “extremely dense.”
I think this is just another illustration of how concentrated Japan is into a few clusters. I really feel this when I travel, how the major centres have such cultural (never mind economic) gravity.

Fascinating thread illustrating how “taking the train to school/work” is concentrated in just a few (extremely dense) places in Japan. The blue is going by car. https://twitter.com/Naga_Kyoto/status/1389463341462999044

My first was like 24 hours of soreness with some chills… nothing a couple of Advil couldn’t stop. The second seemed a little less. The booster just made me really tired on top of the soreness, but I also had a bit of light chest pain. 48 hours and I am all good now!

My booster just kicked me hard the next day. Nurse warned me I could have a strong reaction since I likely had omicron last month — he was right! Coming out of it now. Take care!

Got boosted today so now I am 💉 💉 💉 vaxxxed. And straight up #modernagang too so hopefully will be a smooth entry into any countries I go to
