Well, my internet is out. This doesn't happen very often—Japanese companies are pretty good about keeping the connection up and fixing it almost immediately when it does go down. Yet here we are... I have no internet.

So I'm typing this on my phone. Luckily the mobile phone signal is still good. I would just say forget about it, but I've been posting every day for quite a while and I'd hate to break the streak.

(Please be forgiving of any typos, by the way; thumb typing is definitely not my forte)

So since my options are limited, I thought we might explore one of my bookmarks: 8-bit animated gifs of scenes from Japan!

These gifs come from Tumblr user 1041uuu. They created really cool 8-bit scenes of daily life in Japan. Even if you aren't a fan of the 8-bit pixel art trend, you may like these pieces of art. They are all really well done.

A few of my favorites:
