Election season is always right around the corner. -
I should probably mention this. If you intend to go to the Ghibli Museum you need to buy tickets now. Not this weekend, not in a couple days, but right now. It's not a very big place, so there's limited entry every day. Tickets go on sale on the 10th the month before (so tickets for Oct went on sale two days ago) and frequently sell out. Looking at l-tike, all the weekends in October are sold out already.

I would typically stay in Bunkyo, near the Tokyo Dome which is south of your Airbnb, don't think I've ever really went further north than Ueno. Food recs are tough because there are more restaurants in Japan than seems to logically make sense. It's kind of an analysis paralysis issue, but a good rule of thumb is just find the restaurants that have a line forming outside of them.

I went to Tsukiji when it was still around and got to sample some tuna scraped straight off the bone of a fresh fish. Though it was during the middle of the day, so I didn't get to see the auctions and a lot of the vendors in the inner market had closed up. This year I did swing by Toyosu, but only to the restaurant area for a quick bite because I had tickets for the FFX Kabuki show at a nearby theater.

If you need any advice or suggestions feel free to ask! Japan has been my yearly vacation since 2014 (minus the covid years) and last visited back in March for the World Baseball Classic.

I think there's a case where some guys just "get it" with regards to boundries and such, and some guys just "don't get it." And for the former group it is so obvious and simple of a concept that they struggle to think that the latter group could possibly even exist. -
It felt very sterile in the way recent Bethesda games have been. Animation, dialogue, storytelling all feel very robotic and like right off the bat the quests they seem to give out are have been the standard Bethesda "follow these quest markers." The UI/inventory also seems to somehow get worse with each game. There's a million items to potentially pick up, but they still expect you to manage inventory by scrolling through a linear list? Morrowind handled inventory a thousand times better decades ago.

This just the regular Mario Kart arcade game that Bandai Namco makes? There was a big VR center in Kabukicho/Shinjuku that had a VR Mario Kart which was a cool little gimmick. They bulldozed the place within the past year, but I think they relocated all the VR stuff to a more family-friendly location in Ginza. -

I think he was the embodiment of the mythical "centrist." Certainly some views more conservative than the general leaning of the board, but certainly more liberal than you'd expect out of a self-made, small business owner out of Texas.
