#Kookaburra I see we have undervalued the kookaburra; they think they are waking the world, and I think so too. They gobble the night in their throats like purple berries, they plunge their beaks in the tide of darkness & dew & fish up long rays of light; no wonder now they howl In such triumph...

I am trying very hard not to let these assholes get to me, but I can't shake JD Vance smirking and chuckling as Harris swore him in to the Senate. Not out of affection for Harris. It's the spectacle of these white supremacists laughing at a Black woman exercising her final ceremonial powers.

After writing about Japan's culture of clutter last year, I've been watching for more examples. Here's a great one, of the library of art critic Yanagi Sōetsu, circa late 1950s.

I'd love to visit this second-hand china shop in Kyoto again, and this time ideally have a lot more room in my luggage to fit any purchases. 💙
