Oh apparently Kappabashi-dori is the kitchenware district of Tokyo! Like they sell everything from knives, to trays, to earthenware, to aprons, to actual cooking machinery and such, to things like wax food replicas for display in eatery windows (seriously those things are amazingly well made and an artform unto themselves I swear), everything a restaurateur would need... is that the right word? Restauranteur??

Also Don Quixote is a really weird store but absolutely amazing... Though they do have a strangely alluring penguin girl mascot advertising their tights line.

Apparently back in May Patriot Prayer leader Joey Gibson showed up in Albany. It was a nothing burger of an event.
They held it on Saturday by the Capital which got no traffic because it's dead there on the weekends.
Then they went to the Planned Parenthood which is miles away and was closed.
I don't know how to feel about the lack of counter protesters. The event happened unnoticed and the lack of counterprotests probably helped.

backing up to Videogame Translation War Stories:
there was also a halloween event quest set in the Court of the Spider Queen and you get to meet her courtiers, including the Keeper of the Royal Eggs
"eggs" in German - "Eier" - is also a colloquial term for testicles
we eventually settled on translating that NPC as "Königlicher Eierwärmer".
"Warmer of the Royal Balls"
