@cypnk NICE!

Just saw 卍 in the Federated timeline and I thought I would give other people a heads up: If you see it in Japanese timelines, it's called a MANJI and it is Buddhist symbolism. It has actually been around for thousands of years, used by many different cultures. It was the Nazis who stole and repurposed it.

@masaya @milktea_cg7 Do not say you AREN'T very good. Just say, I'll try my best. That's what counts. My Japanese is not that great, but I try. That's the secret... never giving up!
Frak me. I was just about to boost a post when the timeline jumped and I boosted a different one. :joy:

Hello. I'm a human with interests in sci-fi, computers, science and nature, etc. I enjoy PC gaming, programming, and running.
I'm trying to explore creative activities, though it's difficult after so many years of being too embarrassed to try.
Anyway, I'm liking the content on this instance, and I now have the urge to read some cyberpunk/sci-fi again. I have to admit, I absolutely hated Neuromancer, though maybe I will give it a second chance.
See you around the net.
@8zu How so?
What is the appeal of Shirow's tough public security agent, Motoko Kusanagi?

Artist BRiZL (http://brizl.deviantart.com/) did this fantastic Motoko Kusanagi #GhostintheShell piece for my OMNI article. http://omni.media/major-draw
And he's working on this second alien AI mecha for me for my Metal Fiction series #Screaming Metal.
Great artist. Check him out.
