Jumbo, the #Dutch supermarket chain, introduced slow checkouts when it discovered some people enjoy chatting while paying for their goods.

 The added personal touch is helping many people, especially the elderly, deal with loneliness.
I'm really pleased with how the new pitch cover for Folk Remedy has turned out. Let's hope publishers like it too!

明けましておめでとうございます!

Happy New Year, Mastodon!

2023 is the year of the #rabbit here in #Japan. Rabbits are not a very common #yokai theme, but they do turn up in a few important places in #Japanese #folklore.

One of the best-known folkloric rabbits is the one who lives in the #moon, also known as gyokuto, or the jade rabbit.

You can find out more about the folklore surrounding this cute little bunny at https://yokai.com/gyokuto/

玉兎 ぎょくと Translation: jade rabbit Alternate names: tsuki no usagi, getto (moon rabbit) Habitat: the moon Diet: unknown; presumably mochi Appearance: The dark spots visible on the full moon are said to resemble a rabbit who lives in the moon.

Happy New Year! The Namahage are yokai from the north western part of Japan in Akita prefecture. On New Year’s Eve they visit people’s houses and accept offerings of Mochi.

If you’re a newlywed couple, you greet the namahage in formal attire and offer sake and food.

🎍明けましておめでとうございます!🎍

Happy New Year! 2023 is year of the water rabbit. Japan celebrates with the Gregorian calendar, which is why you might see a bunch of Japanese rabbit art earlier than other East Asian cultures.
