Mishima Skywalk and the zip line with a view of Mount Fuji
I jokingly suggested a zip line over the Rhine in the tags of a previous post, but here's one that does exist: two zip lines, 300 and 260 metres in length, over a valley in the slopes on Mount Hakone.
It's one of the many fun activities on offer at Mishima Skywalk, along with segway tours, tree adventures... But first, one must cross the 400-metre suspension bridge, which is already not for the faintest of hearts...
The kicker is the view of Mount Fuji. On a good day, of course, the usual terms and conditions apply, and I had been unlucky previously when it came to seeing it. This seemed a better day than most, but not quite there...
Until I embarked on the return zip line. I turned around on the way up and saw Fuji-san as clear as can be. I didn't take my camera on the zip lines for fairly obvious safety reasons (and I should mention that my friend Megumi who kindly drove me to the Skywalk that day took the top picture), so what could I do but enjoy the breathtaking sight while gliding back to the start slope!
The clouds allowed this clear enough shot after crossing the bridge back to the entrance. Again: this view from a zip line. Not just a highlight of the trip, probably a lifetime highlight!
hey! so if your 'believe all victims' mentality disappears the moment said victim has politics you don't agree with, then you don't 'believe all victims', you just believe the victims that are palatable to you.

Drawing: 10/10. I love it. Has some mistakes probably, and isn't planned too well, but I love the concept and how it turned out. I'm especially proud of the button.
there are certain subsets of neopaganism where my general impression is that a bunch of people felt like they needed a spiritual/feminist excuse to go fuck in the woods. but here's the thing. you can just do that. you don't have to make up entire imaginary swathes of human history where everyone worshiped some kind of fertility goddess.
one of my favourite things i've seen around lately is like "why do you ship the vampire polycule it clearly would suck for everyone and be toxic and make everyone worse" yes! that's why <3
you should always go for a walk. walks are the mind healer. when you have free time a walk should always be your priority. if you do not want to go on a walk your mind is lying. you should go on a walk. you should go on a walk right now
