When you have to write descriptions about onigiri, it’s best to get into the mood 😋 (mayo-tuna and spicy cod roe reporting for duty!)

Spending the night at Good Heaven’s bar waiting for Space Cafe to start - Cosmic Mirages Probing the Dark Universe (and of course I have a book with me!)

Taking a small break *coughs* Took a break between crafting & meeting a friend to read more Verb Your Enthusiasm by @sarahlkaufman.bsky.social & drink a strawberry soda float Cafe de Ginza has #WriterCommunity it’s a great craft book, easy to understand, & I recommend it 100% 🙌

Bless my brain - 1st escape room is happening!

Oooh, a good chunk of Shinjuku Statikn’s construction is done - I should come back at 3am and try to get some liminal space pics 🤔

Every time I get something like this dumbo octopus 🐙 bread, I always think it’s too cute to eat!

I love it when ideas pop up out of nowhere - I’m heading out to Space Cafe and I had to grab a snapshot of this #WritingPrompt Sci-fi? Horror? How would you write this?

Hanging out at Nerd Nite and learning more about music 🎶 from Matt

I’ve got my tasting cup, now for #coffee #tcf #tokyocoffeefestival

Joining you!

#PunkMarch #Teslapunk This is admittedly a little harder to find since there's so much crossover, but... Book "Leviathan" by Scott Westerfeld has massive Tesla Cannons. Movie "The Prestige" (w/ Nikola Tesla as a character) Video Game Close to the Sun w/Tesla-designer super cruiser Any others?

#PunkMarch Day 6 - #Teslapunk #WritingCommunity -if you've ever wanted crackling lightning arcs to do anything you can imagine, Telsapunk is for you! A micro/sub genre of Steampunk, instead of based on steam, this is based of Nikola Tesla & the power of cool with eletricty, coils & etc. inventions

#PunkMarch Day 5 - #Steampunk Recs! Music Prof. Elemental www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cp1I... Abney Park Reginald www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFCu... Books 20k Leagues Under the Sea Infernal Devices The Court of the Air Games Guns of Icarus Sunless Sea w/Eldritch Horrors What's your favorite Steampunk?

#PunkMarch Day 5 #writingcommunity #Steampunk! All the cogs, gears, & pipes (both for smoke & steam). There's more to steampunk than just sticking gears on things - there's adventure, heists, discoveries & so much more! Automaton fights, sky pirates, anti-teach Luddites! How is the world changed?

#PunkMarch Day 4 - #Clockpunk Watch the Silver Swan (an 1872 automaton performs for about 30 seconds)-links on Wikipedia! Also music by Clockwork Quartet, & the game Silksong has cogwork automatons. "Goblin Secrets" by Willian Alexander has heavy clockwork. Any others to add #WritingCommunity?

#PunkMarch Day 4 - #Clockpunk! One of my favorite "~punks," I love gears coming together to make cars, monsters, or even household servants. Clock'bots using a watermill might stress about keeping enough water - or losing a winding key becomes more than a small personal problem. Plenty of plots!

#PunkMarch - What #Nanopunk recs do you have #writingcommunity ? Michael Crchton's "Prey" sees nanotech dooming us, but "Tech Heaven" by Linda Nagata sees nanotech helping us. There's also an episode of X-Files "Antibodies" - nanomachines developed to cure any fatal disease/trauma in their host!

#PunkMarch Day 3 - #Nanopunk! Similar to Biopunk, this turns away from bio to go nanite! Small, self-replicating machines that fix your cells, change your hair color, or give you something you didn't have before. Warning! The grey goo apocalypse can happen if those nanites never turn off!

#PunkMarch - #Biopunk Recs! I've got 2 books! 1 -"The Changeling Plague" by Syne Mitchell - loved the ending! 2 -"The Windup Girl" by Paolo Bacigalupi - also good! Films: Gattaca, of course (DNA discrimination), & many of Cronenberg's films! (win w/body horror!) Other books, #writingcommunity ?

#PunkMarch Day 2 - #Biopunk! Similar in color to Cyberpunk, the tone shifts toward sickly greens and yellows as well as neon. Manipulating DNA, changing what's "human" or not depending on beliefs & severity of change. Do you fight people created with no empathy? Beast-men controlled by megacorps?

What #cyberpunk recs to you have? I truly got into #cyberpunk with "Altered Carbon," but in memories prior sits H.M. Hoover's book "This Time of Darkness" still in my soul. Blade Runner was an amazing movie, & I can't live in Japan without adding Akira to the list. What are your recs? Your favs?

#PunkMarch Cyberpunk's probably the most well known of punks. Aesthetics: colorful neon on darkness Themes: "low-life and high-tech" With great tech & science achievements, we've become a decaying society. Dystopia. Corrupted companies, invasive police... Do you fight for yourself or others?

So, 1st, what is "Punk"? Punk was a music subculture (70s-80s) against The Man. Anti-corporation, anti-capitalist, anti-authority, etc. Pro-being yourself, pro-going against what society says you should do/be. With writing, the word (usually) in front of "punk" is aesthetics or the setting.

#WritingCommunity - #PunkMarch is with all the "punks" for the month! From Cyber to Desert to 'punkalypse, let's talk punk! And how Splatterpunk fits too 🔪 These posts won't cover everything (heck, I'm sure I'm missing some ~punks), but they're for thinking, researching, & putting Punk in "~punk"!
