"Two Owls" by artist Katsuda Yukio (勝田幸男)

Year: Circa 1970s–1980s
This artwork is a contemporary Japanese print made in the Sōsaku-hanga (creative print) tradition, utilizing woodblock or linocut techniques. It depicts a stylized teal owl and a warm golden-orange owl perched closely together on a pine branch. The piece is defined by its heavy black outlines, intricate wood-grain textures, a limited earthy color palette, and a traditional red artist's seal visible in the bottom-left corner.

We need to start organizing the response after the election is stolen. There’s no way they won’t try to cheat in every way possible. Some Republicans can write a letter and suddenly Georgia is exposed to Elon’s jackoffs?

Awa odori dancer. Japan.
Captured in a striking monochromatic portrait, a female dancer (odoriko) of the Awa Odori stands poised under the steep, sculptural curve of a woven straw hat (amigasa). Deep shadows cast by the braided reed brim frame her quiet, focused profile, highlighting her composed expression and serene intensity amid the festival energy. The stark contrast between her dark-trimmed collar, tied tasuki cord, and folded kimono brings out the crisp geometry and grace of her traditional attire. The photograph evokes a vivid, immersive sensory atmosphere: the resonant clang of kane gongs, the deep thrum of taiko drums, and the rhythmic melody of shamisen echoing through a humid Tokushima summer night, punctuated by the sharp clatter of wooden geta sandals on stone and the pure, contemplative spirit of the dancer frozen in time. Originating in Tokushima Prefecture, the Awa Odori is one of Japan’s most celebrated Bon Odori folk dance festivals, carrying a rich heritage that spans more than four centuries. Renowned for its lively anthem—"Odoru ahō ni miru ahō, onaji ahō nara odoranya son son" ("Dancers are fools and onlookers are fools, so if both are fools, you might as well dance!")—the festival brings together performing troupes (ren) to parade through the city streets. The iconic costume of the female dancers (josei-odori), defined by the distinctive steep-angled amigasa hat, tucked kimono, and high-stepped wooden geta, presents a harmonious synthesis of folk exuberance and courtly aesthetic discipline.

A server rack completely overflowing with an extremely chaotic, tangled nest of colorful wires—red, blue, yellow, green, and orange—spilling out in every direction. White text overlaid across the center reads, "How it feels inside my head."
