Das Rad

Today’s deck is the Manga Tarot.

I’ve already talked in the past about the funny phenomenon that is “manga/anime art” in the west so let’s move on.

The King of Wands is interesting because where the wands all have to do with ideas, creation, creativity and such, the King is more about actualizing the ideas more than coming up with them. Think the difference between coming up with something and mobilizing everything to make it happen.

As such there’s two readings you can apply today. One is “A time has come where you can’t escape your responsabilities” but since I don’t really run away (much to my own detriment sometimes) the other reading is that “don’t falter with leadership if you want things to move along”, which is more relevant to me needing to manage a company and such.

There’s also a third reading that I cannot ignore:

Das Rad indeed.

I woke up with a nasty acid reflux, it was kinda expected though, since I’ve been eating… not necessarily badly but definitely indulging in more of the stuff I know I should avoid.

I actually thought I might’ve gained a kg or two but I actually lost two?

It’s still my normal range though, my weight is always consistent between 70kg and 72kg. Whenever it goes to 73 or 69 (not nice in this one case) is when I get worried.

Eventually I go out to get food and blank postcards to print to people. I tried this place in the Yodobashi Camera food court with some sashimi. The highlight was definitely the dressing of yuzu and salt.

While out and about the preorder for the L-size Pop Up Parade of Jill was finally public.

People often ask me how it feels when this sort of thing happens, and it honestly feels like I blunt my own emotions sometimes, but like… in the same way where I blunt the dread that this or that world event makes me feel.

The proper answer is that it’s such a big thing that I don’t think I’ve managed to properly process it even by now. I get giddy about selling two (2) photobooks and you want me to answer how it feels to have Good Smile Company make a scale figure of your life’s work?

The one thing I can process, however, is a weird cough I’ve had. I was worried it might be a cold or a flu or COVID but it’s just the dry weather. It went out after eating… though it got replaced instead with the weird cough I always get after eating.

Not many news outside of this. They (meaning JP Post) did come and pick up the boxes I was sending to Mandarake though.

I didn’t make any major breakthroughs while cleaning, BUT I did remember to take out the laundry instead of forgetting and needing to run it one more time in the washing machine.

I also did finish a new Forsaken Gaia chapter that I hope to post after I wake up.
