Anki works great for me. I bought some kanji books and added Anki collections made from those books.

Using the book for studying and Anki for reviewing really boosted how much I retained what I learnt, without the hassle of creating cards myself (I'm just lazy)

I didn't know Kagi had a maps functionality. It's interesting, but I couldn't find a way for it to tell me public transportation directions, the only reason I keep using Google Maps...

 

I recently moved to a Asus Zenfone 10 from my Google Pixel 6 pro, and Zenfone's size is great.

I missed having a phone that fits well in my hands and pocket and doesn't feel like carrying a brick.

I agree that Pixels are great. Good cameras and performance, but 95% of the time outside I just need access to my chats and Google Maps.

I wished that there were more flagship options that are not so big!

There's a dish in Japan called 親子丼(おやこどん) which is a chicken + eggs rice bowl. 親子(おやこ) can be translated as parent and child, which was a bit disturbing the first time I knew about it.

This week, I didn't have chicken to prepare it so I searched for alternatives and found two:

  • 他人丼(たにんどん)which replaces chicken with pork and means strangers haha. Also called 継子丼(ママコどん) meaning stepmom bowl.
  • 開花丼(かいかどん)which is the beef version. Meaning "blooming" bowl.

Do you know any other interestingly named dishes like this?

 

For example in this episode's poem:

天(そら)に響めく(どよめく) まやかしの

捉う心(とらうこころ)にはしる旋律(せんりつ)

For me it's interesting that the kanji used for そら (sky/heaven) is not the usual 空 but 天 which is never read そら, usually read てん, but it conveys the meaning of heaven more than 空.

I've seen Bleach doing it several times in the poems
