🌱 Gardening

A sole sunflower remains now that September is here. A large late-blooming Autumn Beauty is the final sunflower in my garden this year. The tithonias are continuing to bloom very nicely. I see hummingbirds most days and am very glad for always including tithonias. The ox-eye sunflowers finally bloomed this week.

🍿 Movies

• Akira, 1988 (Watched: 2026-09-05)

I saw the 4K re-release of Akira in theatres this weekend. The artwork was absolutely gorgeous. I watched the version with subs rather than dubs. I walked away feeling like I didn’t quite get it. I am inspired to finish reading the manga now.
