7) 10 songs I'm loving right now.

Changing this to my 10 favorite songs from the Yuuki Yuuna is a Hero Soundtrack, which I have been listening to alot lately.

1) 11 Stars 5 Flowers - Keigo Hoashi & Nakagawa Nami

A fast paced, actiony song that builds upon previous motifs yet stands out enough to be its own 'song of badassery'.

2) 10 Stars 5 Flowers - Keiichi Okabe & Nakagawa Nami

A regal, bad ass song.

3) Into the Forest - Keigo Hoashi & Emi Evans

A haunting, mysterious theme.

Onyx Boox Tab Ultra C

The next tech thing I'm drooling over.

Thanks to the large screen, the ability to display colors and the ability to make handwritten notes, the model will be an excellent choice for those who plan to combine reading books and working with documents with color images. Tab Ultra C supports operation with a genuine magnetic keyboard case, which can be additionally purchased and used to protect the reader during transportation and storage.

I actually would love a way to combine book taking notes with eink, and also doing gemini stuff on an eink computer to reduce eye strain. That said its hard to justify the price right now. I have a working laptop and my eyes aren't hurting right now. But maybe in 5 to 10 years I'll get the similar product...

10) Write about something for which you feel strongly.

Honestly, bathrooms. I wish clean and well maintained toilets were all around and usable for the general public. And not just stuff in corporate third places but just public restrooms for the sake of the common good. Shoot, even have mini naprooms. More benches. Stuff to help out a variety of people actually enjoy or be able to go out.

Other things - better sidewalks, better public transit, offline maps/guides of third spaces...

On a Sunbeam by Tillie Walden

I read the physical version but its also freely available as a webcomic! A sapphic science fantasy about found friendship, love and second chances along with such a unique visual style. Loved this.
