Thank you, david pilling, for taking us with you on this beautiful journey to Shitamachi. I have been travelling to Tokyo in my mind many times over the last couple of weeks and can't wait to go there again for real once this is over. ft.com/content/7c155b…

It's great to know that America's pandemic response is being led by someone who thinks the "1917 pandemic"(which began in 1918) "probably ended the Second World War" (which began in 1939). With stats like these, no wonder President DrinkBleach thinks everything looks super rosy!

What, if anything, is good about #SARSCoV2? 1. It is evolving very slowly, so making neutralizing antibodies and vaccines have a better chance to succeed 2. All of the recent reports support a solid B (antibody) and T cell immune response 3. There are no documented reinfections

I found this strange arrangement of discarded cicada (aburazemi) skins on the trunk of a tree in Yoyogi Park. Like a parliament, or a Black Mass, of insectkind. It’s the first time that I have seen this.

The MOMA released this haunting 1902 film of the Wuppertal Suspended Railway in Germany - but now it’s been colourised and upscaled to 4K and it is incredibly beautiful

PM in lots of shit? On my walk today I discovered that somebody has stuck tiny decomposable portraits of Boris Johnson in all the cowpats along the footpaths that surround Chequers, the PM’s Buckinghamshire residence
