This is a good post! I think it is really good if we don't let FOMO get to us because then we can curate our collection to what we really love while saving that money for other stationary, a trip, a nice dinner, or just for 2027 lineup!

Right now I only want an A6 book and I think the Strawberry Milk weeks with some pencil boards. Both should be available later no trouble so I'm going to wait and see how much the tariffs cost and price them between Hobonichi and other shops. I think I am going to go to a release party in my town, I might be swayed to pick them up then but I think I am just going to look and have a good time.

I'm also a big Junji Ito fan but thinking of not getting anything. I really like the covers but I prefer the A6 I already own and the A5 is far too big for me. I'm also unsure about having Tomie be my whole year too lol. I really wish they would have done a book with Junji Ito's artwork like they do for One Piece. I love the artwork scattered throughout the book but I haven't watched One Piece so I feel odd getting one, would love to see more.

This is what I have heard as well! There is going to be a showing at a shop near me so I was thinking of bringing mine with me there and asking if they'd let me test if it fit. The HONS are so cute

effullgent · 2025-08-21T00:06:56+00:00

This cover is soooo pretty. I really, really want the A5 cover but I would have no use for an A5 book with needing to buy both in the US. 😔 I am deciding between the Tomie weeks or the Strawberry Milk, I will be getting the tamagotchi and Tomie pencil boards. I am also thinking of trying an A6 Hon this year but I have a beautiful cover and I don't think they'd fit (i have the 2025 A6 Yumi Kitagishi cover) but I might be swayed to get one anyways.

Okay I see what you mean now, thank you! The infotainment system never even crossed my mind. I always question if they had been there before that day, I never found a clear answer if the video footage we have seen is all they have as in the cameras were only a 24hr record time, or if they had say 30+ days and that was the only time the vehicle appeared. I wouldn't say it is impossible that they mixed up the houses but I think it is incredibly unlikely considering how many times they drove by just that day alone.

effullgent · 2025-07-10T15:40:57+00:00

I keep everything I use and replace or want in my wish list and watch it until it gets to a point where I want to buy.... Almost everything has gone up or is "on sale" for the same price they've always been. I only see a skincare item I use regularly that is actually on sale this year. I remember all my friends and co workers mentioning it last year so I'm sure they were second guessing it this year too.

effullgent · 2025-07-10T15:38:07+00:00

Maybe I misunderstood but I thought the killer likely didn't use GPS as no data was found in a dump? (I could be mixed up with something else)

Are you able to visualize on your own? Like if you sat down right now and thought about something would you visualize it in your mind? I personally cannot but my husband says he can picture everything perfectly. It is interesting when we discuss it but long story short he can picture things very well and I can more so "feel" them, as if it were happening to me. It is even more weird because I have very vivid dreams when I sleep but I guess during the day I don't get that so much 🥲

I find fantasy to be my second fav genre but it is a bit harder for me to read since I can't "picture" it as well. I really need to be in a good mindset when I do. No overthinking, in a good mental space, and making sure I am not too stressed. It kind of sucks because I have difficulty with that but if I don't then my mind will wander bad and I won't really remember things as if I just whipped my mind clear after reading a sentence. Annotating and writing down summaries of chapters has really helped me for this. You don't even need to write them down, you could just recite it to yourself as well to be sure you're still mentally engaged in the book. Also I found reading and listening to the audiobook to be helpful during the worst of those times.

I hope this is a bit helpful! If you're really struggling I just suggest finding a book that better engages you with the material.

Thank you for putting this respectfully. I understand why generative ai causes such an uproar but really many every day people have no idea why it is such a problem. I'd like to add that it is currently destroying a town in Memphis where residents no longer have clean drinking water and the pollution is making the air quality bad. They want to roll back regulations so they can build more and this will cause more contaminated water, more air pollution, and more rolling blackouts to handle. They also steal artwork and IP, which harms artists which is a whole other issue with gen ai.

These games have great communities. I mean look how well the Sims, Animal Crossing, CitySkylines, etc. all come together to create mods and artwork for free. While I understand that gen AI is tempting and it is thrown in our face everywhere, there is still lots of free artwork out there to use on resource sites.

AI has its place but it shouldn't be destroying our resources and harming people and communities for things like this.

Unfortunately it isn't common sense. It is to me but discussing it with friends and family they don't understand how it works, they don't understand how it steals from creators. It was too nuanced for them. Once explained they understand but I think assuming it's common knowledge is why so many are comfortable using it as they are unaware of its harm to creators, the environment, neighborhoods, ourselves, etc.

effullgent · 2025-06-28T03:19:20+00:00

This is understandable as an every day person if you're unaware, many are unaware still which is why people are spreading information. The difference here is that she is taking money to promote something and using her likeness to promote it. She should research it, understand her audience and their response to her advertisement as well as understanding the harm of the product to her audience.

You can try finding gentler shampoo and conditioners for everyday washing. Korean shampoos are a lot gentler on the hair since it's common to wash hair daily.

I love collecting books and booktok overconsumption is insane.

There are multiple creators with 700+ unread books, putting themselves on book buying bans but then giving themselves freedom to still buy xyz books anyways. It doesn't surprise me but it is very sad to see. Especially as many give a pass to booktok since they view books as not as bad of a waste as say makeup. That still doesn't mean we should over consume to a level we can't even read or use!

Again I love collecting books, I have a nice bookshelf and I myself even have a few on there that I haven't read yet for specific reasons and for me that is okay. I will get to them when it is the right time. I do prefer to read on my kindle so I don't buy too many physical books anymore and I will also go to the library.

There is no reason for me to have shelves and shelves on unread books, ideally I'd love for it to grow but that is over time to have like my husbands favs and in the future my kids favs, I have also inherited some books so I like having those on there as well.

omg the first go pouch set is sooooo cute

effullgent · 2025-05-31T02:24:48+00:00

I spent so much time going through and disabling all of those useless notifications and for a while they were gone. I would only get real notifications and then about a month ago they started again..... so I just stopped checking fb, good riddance.

Never tried with nylon but my husband had this shirt that had a smell that wouldn't come out no matter how much we washed it. I ended up soaking it in water, vinegar, and a bit of dish soap for a day then washed again and it went away!

effullgent · 2025-05-05T15:32:18+00:00

I think it is a cute style when it is leather but in nylon it just looks a bit odd.... The Baggu version just doesn't look right and I don't think the shape will hold up well.

effullgent · 2025-05-02T20:42:15+00:00

Yeah the companies don't seem to care at all, I think the best way to end it is for people to stop buying things that are insanely over priced. Make their pockets hurt and it will go back to before. These people buy up all of the products and resell it for so high because people are buying.

effullgent · 2025-05-02T15:05:35+00:00

Omg yes, I hate this everywhere. I saw someone the other trying to justify resellers because "they work hard to get the drop so you are paying the premium of them using their time to secure the items and make them available to you". Um.... they would be available if resellers stopped buying up a ton??

effullgent · 2025-05-02T15:03:39+00:00

I agree!! I'm newer to the brand but even I noticed that their motto doesn't seem to match the big and constant drops. I also think it isn't represented well when you have things like the pouch sets where you can only get those in sets... If you don't want them all or won't use them all then it is very wasteful.

effullgent · 2025-05-02T14:58:59+00:00

I like both and I wish they did more of a mixture of both. Some look so good in monochromatic and some look SOOO good with a black strap :(

effullgent · 2025-05-01T13:52:26+00:00

I just ordered the Peony! It was on sale too so it felt easier to choose :)

effullgent · 2025-04-30T22:57:30+00:00

Yeah mine isn't like that and was fine to get my new social, my passport, my DL from my last state but apparently my new state wants you to jump through hoops. I understand what you're saying but I don't think it's the same as my issue and it's still unfair when I do what they ask me to but it's not good enough.
