Today Is April Fool Day And We Wrote A Test Lol

Today is April fool day and we wrote a test lol 😆

Currently reading: 本を守ろうとする猫の話

For March I'm reading the novel 本を守ろうとする猫の話 by 夏川草介（なつかわ そうすけ）. The prologue introduced our main character, Rintarō, who was raised by his grandfather and who is currently dealing with the death of that same grandfather.

As Rintarō is still coming to terms with his loss and considering his options on what to do regarding his grandfather's beloved antique bookstore, the titular cat appears to take him to another world and save the books.

From what I've read so far, I was strongly reminded of the typical story structure of a Ghibli film. From the young protagonist to the talking cat to the journey to another world, it ticks all the boxes so far and I'm intrigued.

hey people here's the ultimate boop guide!! (in case ur confused)

to boop people, just go to either the home/explore page and scroll until you find someone with a boop button next to their name like this ↓

just click that and u booped someone!!

(some people opted out so not everyone has that option)

(also, it doesn't matter if the person is following you, your moot, etc,, u can just boop a random stranger!)

you can also boop yourself by going to your own blog and click the boop button on top of a post that you made/reblogged !

(also gives you this pop-up lol)

you can also view someone's blog and then boop them with this button !

last but not least we have the super boop !!

find any boop button, hover over it for a few seconds, then it should do a spinning animation; then click it and if it gives u this pop-up that means it worked :3

update: ok i dont think super booping works on mobile :(

WAIT GUYS YOU CAN EVIL BOOP SOMEONE

hover over the boop button and wait for it to do the spinning animation at least 3 times, then click it and it should give u this pop-up

「日本語」 - (nihongo) means Japanese language.

Here is my first everyday kanji lesson!

Genji is not a perfect person, but there’s a purity to him, a beauty that’s clearly meant to be lauded, particularly in contrast to later chapters. He’s in love with love, a true romantic, and his sometimes unwise affairs are motivated by a true sense of love. He never abandons one of his lovers, which in this time is crucial. No matter the shame it brings to himself, he tries to find a way to honor the women he’s fallen for. He’s charming. No one can not love him, or ultimately forgive him his faults.

The age of Tale of Genji had strict rules of romance—of how flirtations worked (largely intermediaries and poetry), of how commitments worked, of how aloof vs. present it was appropriate to be (it’s good to commit but bad to hoard or become jealous). It was possible to love too much. Genji is accused of this, but he always remembers to care for the people he is responsible for—once he grows up that is.

Early in the text, he neglects his wife, and he also neglects “the Rokujo lady.” The Rokujo lady becomes so jealous and enraged that her spirit begins to sicken his wife. This ghost returns more than once over the course of the text. She has grown sick from obsession and neglect, and Genji pays the price for it. It’s part of what motivates him to always care for the women he romances for the rest of his life.

Later, in the “Uji” chapters, young Kaoru and prince Niou also love too much. Niou is impulsive like Genji but also flighty, and Kaoru is serious like Genji but also obsessive. Both men pursue the women at Uji with insistence that the text can’t quite forgive as it could for Genji. Both, somehow, go too far—perhaps in their attempts to hoard, or in their impatience.
