A pretty cool find today in a sleepy Sapporo antique book shop - a copy of John Batchelorโ€™s Ainu-English dictionary.
While an important text in the history of the Ainu language, I wouldnโ€™t use it as a reference today. Batchelorโ€™s work has been criticised a lot for having a lot of issues.

About 50 Ainu household items and tools exhibited at the 1873 Vienna World Fair and then donated to Berlin State Ethnographic Museum in Germany are returning to Hokkaido for the first time in approximately 150 years. They will be displayed at the National Ainu Museum in Shiraoi starting this July.

I think in books we will have a gothic horror revival paired with a spike of cozy fantasy soon. Vampires, werewolves, and hot cocoa.

None of you can take that phrase as a title.

So, howโ€™s the price of eggs now? Going up. And your Medicare and Medicaid are in danger too and you canโ€™t afford your medication without those programs. And tariffs are set to raise prices on all groceries. Itโ€™s almost as if we told you so.

I hate scabs and I support Unions fighting for their (and our) rights. But I am still mad at the Teamsters for not endorsing Harris.

STEM grows, but STEAM has power.

Support your local artists, especially the young ones.

It will take 11 days and 14 hours to count to one million.

It will take 31.7 years to count to a billion.
