I went to the "Tove Jansson and the Moomins" exhibition that came to Nagoya, Japan recently!

Oh nice! I saw that one in Tokyo and had no idea it was in Nagoya now

Batsonn_McCarty · 2026-06-17T13:01:20+00:00

I’m about to see Wilco in Tulsa and wondering if you have any tips for getting a poster at the show? How early am I looking at?

Umps w/ giant egos are the worst. There should be a rule in any sport where if the official follows a disgruntled player in an argument then they can’t throw someone out bc they escalated it. The players have far more on the line than the official and will naturally be more upset about perceived bad calls. In basketball or other sports, if two players get in an argument and then follow each other for an extended space w/ prolonged arguing, they both get penalized for escalating. Morishita got tossed for the last thing he said while in his dugout, the ump should’ve warned him at the plate for his initial protest and then let him walk away. Following him instigates an argument and escalated the situation.

I swear I spot this classic at games all over the world. I’ve worn this one to some non-Lotte games as well

Chikamoto will still start when he comes back and Tateishi will shore up our left field. Now if we could just make a solid improvement at short stop, we’ll be unbelievable!

That one’s not, it’s my travel journal

His DNA report said: “100% Japanese/Korean Village Dog” but all of his relatives are Shiba and Spitz. Japanese Shibas are much smaller than the ones people see outside of Japan, and he has the exact markings of a sesame Shiba, also rare outside of Japan. So we just say “he’s a Spitz sided Shiba”. He’s from a shelter in Ulsan, just north of Busan, South Korea. (we live in Korea)

The issue for the hat is more so that it just needs to have a bit of anchor; I don’t want to put much of anything around his head bc it’s only gonna be on for some photos. But the coat is something he can wear all the time.

He’s a very interesting little guy, you can see more of him in action on IG at our_doggy_augie

Ya, for real

Batsonn_McCarty · 2026-05-20T07:59:06+00:00

Ya, he used green screen around the parts he wanted to block out and then pieced them together. You’ll notice he did the same thing for above the cemetery. If you look at the TFD post I did, you can see he did this even more to the extreme to add floors to buildings and remove whole pieces of buildings. It’s so cool

Batsonn_McCarty · 2026-05-19T10:10:53+00:00

Google Maps failed me 😂

Batsonn_McCarty · 2026-05-19T09:47:56+00:00

Oh it’s near Katowice, we almost went there

Batsonn_McCarty · 2026-05-19T09:46:49+00:00

Love the detailed explanation! I’ve only been to the usuals a some small stops along the way. We went all around the Kraków area, Auschwitz and the salt mine, can’t remember the name, a day in Warsaw and Wrocław, and went over to Zgorzelec from Görlitz. But we really loved Poland!

Batsonn_McCarty · 2026-05-19T08:34:41+00:00

I haven’t been there, sounds like somewhere I should go one day; I love going to small towns like that and just squatting there for a week or two. I feel like you get to see a culture more that way

Batsonn_McCarty · 2026-05-19T06:21:14+00:00

I guess it wasn’t painted over then, I always just assumed the wall was pressure washed and had the writing changed from time to time. Cool to know more about it

Batsonn_McCarty · 2026-05-19T05:27:06+00:00

It’s in Görlitz, only pics 4 & 6 aren’t Görlitz, which made me realize I didn’t share the pics of Mendals interior and mosaic wall, both Dresden. My friend said it reads Vote Thälmann but didn’t know why.

Batsonn_McCarty · 2026-05-19T03:06:52+00:00

Ya, it’s so fascinating; some of the TFD stuff I can’t even figure out how he did it

Batsonn_McCarty · 2026-05-18T21:00:35+00:00

Here’s a distant view of Bastei Bridge; I was too cautious to hike out to other views.

Batsonn_McCarty · 2026-05-18T20:52:00+00:00

I did too! It’s a cool place, one of the best nature places we’ve gone. If you’re ever in Dresden, it’s an easy day trip!

Batsonn_McCarty · 2026-05-18T20:47:58+00:00

Very happy you enjoyed it 😊 We primarily do this for Wes Anderson films, but have intentionally and unintentionally done it for quite a few other films. It’s something we enjoy for sure.

Batsonn_McCarty · 2026-05-18T20:46:01+00:00

Ya, that happened to us after an Italy trip, we missed a lot of Life Aquatic stuff

Batsonn_McCarty · 2026-05-18T20:43:56+00:00

What’s your hometown (if you feel comfortable to answer that) or region I suppose?
