I spent most of this month blasting last year’s kurayamisaka album, so this is whatever I was listening to otherwise.

So hey, did you know AO3 doesn’t support SVGs nor the CSS property row-gap? column-gap, however, is fine. Bonus: CSS media queries get removed from your work skin silently!

rikkai.club

Tue, 03 Mar 2026 07:55:25 GMT

As I no longer trust AO3’s databases, I’ve finally set up a personal fannish website: rikkai.club.

It’s still a WIP as I move fics over. I also mirrored several fics on here, but my social media fic aren’t easily ported to Dreamwidth.

Monthly Listening: Feb 2026

As a figure skating fan, those sure were an Olympics. At least Niina Petrõkina did away with a few more men.

Now for the (seasonal depression) music.

Monthly Listening: Jan 2026

We are fully in the swing of winter now (I say, while leaving my parka unzipped outside). We are also nearing the Olympics, so I will take this opportunity to make a PSA and say: under no circumstances should you support the French ice dance team and here is why.

On to the music.

New fountain pens & inks

Sun, 25 Jan 2026 05:21:48 GMT

I went on a small stationery spree while I was in Taiwan this winter. However it took me a few weeks to get pens and inks out of boxes and filled, so photos in bad indoor lighting it is!

Interlude: 2026 NYE performances

Thu, 01 Jan 2026 13:50:13 GMT

It’s the NYE concert season, aka time to keep Kouhaku on TV while completely ruining my Youtube recs in the name of catching all dozen or so Taiwanese NYE concerts. At one point I had 6 different streams open at once.

CW: Most of these videos have flashing lights.

Edit (2026/01/02): I’ve updated the links as some official livestreams have come down.

I’ve been battling migraines on and off for the past several weeks, so this is an iosyscore-free zone as much as Maltine Records is trying otherwise.

Albums etc of 2025

Mon, 22 Dec 2025 16:48:00 GMT

I have been battling a migraine, and the bad cold going around, to the point I typed font-face instead of font-family in my CSS. A theme for the year: I felt like I struggled to listen to as much music as I’d want this year. I did get to some albums I liked, though, and here they are.

I watched this film in October and this post is based on the notes I wrote then. However I have not rewatched it, so some details may be misremembered. ( Medium spoilers ahead )

Is it snowing yet?

Mon, 08 Dec 2025 01:46:22 GMT

Since I missed posting Monthly Listening November a second year in a row, here are some of my fave follows to get through December:

Monterey Bay Aquarium Deep Sea December: Not only is the art and poetry cool, aquarium staff will respond to them with deep sea facts!
Myeongho Seo: Photog often based out of Antartica, posts lots of videos of baby penguins and seal pups.
isobo: Posts Hokkaido wildlife, which right now means tiny white birbs in snow.
Best Bird Tournament: Yes Birdblr is really voting through every extant bird species with a photo on Wikipedia. Become strongly opinionated on birds you’ve never heard of before this week!
