Okay wow Kodansha only published GTO digitally, that really sucks. It was one of my fave manga series :c Psht at least do them physical if you need rights that badly.

Also I hope Japan Post can sort out their mess, I mean what did they do with their postal service internationally? Like I get you can't fly over Russia but at least let postal operator in Sweden know too??
 
Since my dad obviously doesn't trust me, he put a ton of restrictions on my things (especially devices + internet). For some reason I can't even go on Nookazon now, which I find is very ludicrous. (Ironically, I can go on Archive Of Our Own without any trouble.)
 
My rabbit Theodore chewed through my phone charger and I'm just glad he wasn't electrocuted considering it was still plugged in. That rotten little hairy potato.

Short staffed at work leaving myself as the only manager on duty. Didn't get much of a lunch break as I had to fix some problems for the sales associates during my break. I also can't help but feel like the store manager is still going to tell me I didn't get enough done today 😑

This rant probably won’t make any sense to anyone who hasn’t tried to learn Japanese, but I need this off my chest.

I watched a YouTuber speak advanced Japanese and I don’t think I’ll ever reach his level, at least not with speaking. He was using pitch accent, which is where the pitch of your voice goes up and down depending on the word. Sometimes the pitch accent varies depending on which dialect you’re speaking or which particle follows the word. Every time I hear someone try to explain this on a word to word basis it goes right over my head. I understand this on a literal level, but I can’t actually remember any of the specific pronunciations for the words. At my previous college I actually got penalized often because I wasn’t doing pitch accent during script repeating sessions. I just gave up after a while.

At my current college my professor only brought up the concept once. She claimed pitch accent wasn’t required for actual conversations. As a result I’ve been able to do pretty well in the class. The problem is I now have this constant nagging voice that says my pitch accent is off. I know sounding like a native is less important than actually understanding the language, but seeing these fluent speakers use perfect pitch accent makes me feel inadequate.

I used to think kanji would be the most irritating part of the language, but this takes the cake.
 
In Georgia, USA our Gas Prices are around $3.80 like sheesh I might have to cut down on road trips because of this. This is ridiculous!

Yeah, unfortunately it's gotten crazy high basically everywhere. I saw yesterday that California was over $5.00 US a gallon. Parts of Canada have already hit over/are about to hit $2.00 CAN a litre ($5.96 US a gallon when converted). Canada has always been more expensive when it comes to gas overall, but regardless of where you are it's high for basically everyone compared to the past.
