Checked in for my flights to Tokyo !!!

This feels so surreal 😅

#TheParksForThe34thTokyoDrift
So I have now booked a ticket to see it Thursday night
So today I learned two things:

1/ #TaylorSwift loved #OneBattleAfterAnother
2/ Conservatives HATE One Battle After Another

Conclusion?

I have to see that movie.
…and uplifting. It feels like half a sequel to Daylight (itself a song that’s very important and special to me) and like Taylor’s version of The Middle by Jimmy Eat World, which is a song I’ve long adored as a source of reassurance and energy
I got the “It’s Beautiful” edition Deluxe #TheLifeOfAShowgirl CD because a bracelet seemed like the nicest keepsake and I liked the cover art of that one anyway, but I’m retroactively extra happy I did because the bracelet has an Opalite centred star and Opalite is a song I find really meaningful…
And yes, I am aware that is half the tracklist.

It's a good freaking album, leave me alone! 😅
...Ophelia, Opalite, Elizabeth Taylor, Honey & Ruin The Friendship.

Probably in that order. Definitely the first two. The title track is...I love it. So much. For so many reasons.
Alright, so, I've listened to #TaylorSwift #TheLifeOfAShowgirl like...a bunch of times now, seen #ReleasePartyOfAShowgirl twice. Here are my thoughts:

Oh my GOD, Taylor. I needed this record.

I did not KNOW that I needed this record.

But I did.

Faves are The Life Of A Showgirl, The Fate of...
And baby, that’s show business! Did my #nails ready for #TaylorSwift #TheLifeOfAShowgirl release tomorrow! #TLOAS #TS12
Last month I was lucky enough to be on #Straightn’t (Sky’s internal #LGBTQ+ Vodcast) Ep 6 with Chris Burkill for #BiVisibilityWeek! Discussed all things #Bisexuality, #Pansexuality, & #GenderFluidity. Grateful for Sky’s supportive space to express our identities. Truly makes #LifeAtSky special!
Well I don’t know about anyone else, but any lingering possibility of me spending any more money or time on EA products has officially evaporated www.theverge.com/news/787112/...

Picked up my cash Yen yesterday and this morning my busses to & from #FujiQHighland were confirmed, so everything is now in place for #TheParksForThe34thTokyoDrift! 😎

Just ten work days (or 12 total days) now before I set off on my first visit to Japan!
Also got a second ticket for Saturday to see it in Odeon iSense like the first time I saw #TheErasTour Movie ☺️ #TaylorSwift #ReleasePartyOfAShowgirl
The package is secured! Got my ticket for #TaylorSwift #ReleasePartyOfAShowgirl for release day at 8pm!
So #Disney effed around & found out. Less than a week later, they’ve had to cave to public pressure & put #JimmyKimmel back on air. They went full #Target & it worked out for them the same it did for Target. Never go full Target. Buckling to far right pressure never works variety.com/2025/tv/news...

What’s that? Do I have tabs open for three different cinema chains’ pages for #TaylorSwift #ReleasePartyOfAShowgirl Tickets already even though they don’t go on sale until tomorrow?
They’re really not putting down that “they’re gonna clone the Tron coaster at #DisneylandParis but theme it as #TheMandalorianAndGrogu Speeder Bike chase” story with this one

The idea that if you make Dems a little more Republican, Republicans will vote Dem is what’s breaking us. And it doesn’t even work!
I genuinely cannot believe that Ezra Klein said we should run pro-life candidates in Kansas, Ohio, and Missouri; three states that recently held abortion referendums where the pro-choice side won!
To be clear, the issue with all the others is I took them badly, not that the Pentax did a bad job. In a lot of them I really liked the look of the photography but for the fact I’ve screwed up timing or framing or something.

To me, the Pentax takes gorgeous photos
