I'm now going down a wiki-hole of boba tea. Its history, its cultural signifiers, its lumps.

Knowledge this powerful is a gromit in the mind of the demanding.

#Trailer #TokyoUberBlues

#filmmaker #TakuAoyagi takes us on his daily bike rides as an #UberEats #worker. But pedaling on #Tokyo's deserted streets, delivering #bobatea to cloistered condos, he starts to wonder...what was it that #KenLoach said about the #UberisationofSoceity? And what does #gigwork offer an unemployed young person with #studentdebt?

Retro Haul: Tactics and Sea Monkeys

We found ourselves once again awash in a sea of retro games. We found some winners, maybe...?

The instant I saw that there was an OFMD instance, I had to move to it. So hello, it's me, Chocolatepot.

If we're here, we're all #OFMD fans so it seems unnecessary to tag it, but! Tis the custom in intro posts. Also #GoodOmens, #WWDITS, #MDZS, #TGCF, #Moshang, #LesbianBlackbonnet (#gentlebend I will make this happen), #sapphic, #musicaltheater ... I'm just tagging random things I like now. #FashionHistory. #BobaTea. #DianaWynneJones. Oh, and #bookbinding!

So, the Chatime at Somerset and Bronson closed and reopened as a Tealive, and now the bubble tea / fried chicken / cell phone store down the street is reopening as a Chatime.
