Hi ! 🫧 I had such a fun time playing Club Culture at Casbah a few weeks ago. 🌀 Many thanks to @messyeraxo and @dreamrecordings for inviting the Soap crew to dj in the Razzmatazz Room again! Everyone killed it. 🪩✨ It was a nice challenge to go full USB for CC, but this Saturday, April 5, @aaaronsd and I return to our beloved format and go all-vinyl at @parttimelover.hifi from 10p-2a for 🌃☆ Metro Space Lounge ☆ — a night of global electronica and house. 🍸🪐💓 🧼♩Got more videos and pics from Club Culture but I’m hoping to hunker down and get the Soap instagram up and active soon to share there, so follow @rinse.relax.enjoy for documentation of past events, updates for future events, and general moodboarding ! Aaron and I do a lot of digging—IRL and URL—into the past that aligns with what we’re trying to accomplish with Soap and we figure we could use that space to share our findings. 💖 Last but not least, huge thank you to @atrevid000 for all of his technical support and prowess for priming everyone on the dance floor. He got it like that. 🏋🏻‍♂️💪🏼 📸 on first slide by @jona.foto1

NEXT SUNDAY @ Soda Bar – @crushedworldwide w/ @16Undergroundmusic + DJs @crushedpeanut @aaaronsd .

Got back into journaling in a big way this past fall with a discounted Hobonichi July-December 2025 A6 Avec Techo to test whether I still had the discipline and drive. Well, I’m ready to keep at it in 2026 with the A6 Original Techo (daily journal, pictured here in a gorgeous 2021 cover “I forgot when it was, but we sure had fun” by Ryōji Arai), Weeks MEGA in Strawberry Milk (for work), and 100% Orange Squirrel’s Moving Day Weeks collab (for personal planning). 🩷💚💛🧡 I’ve really missed the practice. Keeping an analog personal record helped inform my writing and comics and it kept my head straight and memory sharp which in recent years has been not-so-great. Collecting stationery tools and decorations has also been really joyful and soothing. Stamps, stickers, pens, washi tape! I honestly owe it to my older sister for gifting me a Sanrio Spottie Dottie tin full of stationery when I was little and infecting me with stationery fever lol. I’m a fiend… >.< Anyway, I just wanted to share some little details from my “techo ecosystem” ! 😚📒❣️ #ほぼ日2026 #Hobonichi
