The alolan ninetales dwells on sacred peaks perpetually covered in snow. Said to appear to virtuous people who have lost their way on mountain paths—it then guides them back down to the mountain's base.

My friend works at a home improvement store. Reading her texts like

"We are out of salt of every variety. Snow shovels. Snow blowers. Carts in the deep. We cannot get out. A forecast lurks in the dark. We cannot get out. They are coming."

Just watched "The Fault in Our Stars." I held out for ¾ of the movie, started crying at the scene with her parents. I guess I am that old, ha. A guaranteed tear-jerker but a good one. #JohnGreen

1. In a major victory, Democrats have managed to get all anti-trans riders stripped from the final appropriations bills.

This includes HHS and Ed, which had the worst provisions in congressional history.

If it passes, it will be a big win for 2026.

Ironically this attitude is a product of the remarkable success of American governance. It has been so long since these folks have felt the crushing weight of world historic events in their personal lives, they've forgotten it can happen.

"these three episodes leave me wondering not whether I should continue, but whether any other anime this year will come close to challenging it." Journal With Witch ep 3 Ikoku Nikki
[Review] I have a vault stuffed with compliments that I wish to pay Journal with Witch, both as a story and as an adaptation. I'm sad I can only dole them out one at a time.

Journal With Witch ep 3 Ikoku Nikki
I've talked about ikoku nikki (Journal with Witch) for years on a story that I go back to yearly for it's portrayal of grief and how to feel human in the face of it. Not just how to feel sad, but to forgive yourself when you're not.
Now that the anime is here, I cannot recommend it enough.

Ikoku Nikki keeps being fantastic and empathic. Its been a while since a show has emanated this much humanity from every scene.
Makio and Asa keep being excellent.
Fantastic fantastic work.

Journal With Witch ep 3 Ikoku Nikki
Not that Journal with Witch (Ikoku Nikki) needed a 3 episode test, but its 3rd episode seals why it's such a good slice-of-life drama.

That said, I relate to Makio's baggaged stoicism a lot, especially when I reflect on how often I with death, and I how handled my father's passing.

I think on balance it's good that Walz is doing this. And I especially appreciate the explicit reference to compiling evidence for future prosecutions. But Eliot knows this space as well as anyone out there. So these are good things to keep in mind, be aware of, have processes, etc.
Mass filming raises unresolved structural questions: storage, access, verification, metadata preservation, archiving, and chain of custody.

Without trained volunteers, defined workflows, and appropriate tools, large volumes of footage collapse into disorder rather than accountability.
