CHAI

Been mostly just listening to this one band for the last bunch of months (also Zombie-Chang and a bunch of different African disco and soul and funk, but—). Can’t remember where I heard of them, but I found フューチャー in my bookmarks and followed it round Youtube. I think I’d listened to it before and kinda dismissed it for being too cutesy, but hearing more of their stuff it made sense and the positivity and enthusiasm and the rhythm section really stuck in me.

Also I love this lyric:

Jellybeans, lollipop,
Chewing gum, ice cream,
Beef, gyoza, fish, oranges,
Everything yummy foods!

There are some real good live videos on YT too.

Here’re some Miis I made of the group:

Peter ‘Beandick’ Dutton

I’ve been playing a cute little game called Tomodachi Life on the 3DS. Since the Wii, Nintendo consoles have these things called Miis—goofy people you design that you can use in some games—and this game involves filling an apartment building with them and dressing them up, making them do songs, keeping them happy, etc. The idea with Miis is that you make one to represent yourself, and yours and your friends’ live in each others’ systems. Tomodachi Life expands on this by making you give them personalities, lets you interact with them, and encourages you to make all sorts of different ones. A little searching will dig up lots of Mii versions of celebrities and things, and these can be shared with QR codes.

So I made Peter Dutton, and decided to treat him horribly. You have to give them a nickname, so I went with ‘Beandick’. Yeah, I dunno.

Here he is getting interviewed on the news:

Here he is looking lonely in a Japanese hotel while I hang on the door doing ninja stuff?

I only fed him once.

This is the time he sold colonial uniforms in the park:

Snoop Dogg wasn’t into it.

Here’s a shot of him giving me money:

Here’s a song I wrote for him to sing:

And here’s his QR code if you want to borrow him:
