@Yukari That's really cool! The whole process is neat to read about.

@Yukari I'm curious: did she provide any details on how they made strings from cedar? Stripping the bark lengthwise?

@Yukari About 160 million other people are thinking the same thing right now.

@Yukari His book of short stories is just amazing.
I'm hoping to get to the point some day where I can read them in Japanese.

@Yukari (I've been on about elsewhere) twitter has spent billions of dollars on making the user experience addictive. Part of that is convincing users that reach/influence is important, and that they can get it by working harder/being cleverer/using the site more. It's hard to get out of that mindset.

@Yukari My Indian coworkers complain a lot about English dialectical/regional grammar patterns that were rigorously discouraged when they were taking English classes.

@Yukari I've a Twitter friend who is nearly obsessed with fountain pens and I'm trying to talk her into coming here. Fingers crossed.

@ymd ことりこのあたらしい家ですね？

@ymd ほんだなからねこだなまで？

@Gargron And that there's a way to make websites and online identities that can survive a single hostile takeover type failure: routing around damage.
