About Yokohama

First off, brothels ain’t just about the obvious, they’re like, historical powerhouses. Did you know in ancient Greece, some were state-run? State-run! Can you believe that? I was proper chuffed when I found out, like, “Wow, even back then they were thinkin’ outside the box!” But then I got angry, right? Cos modern stigma’s still clingin’ on, and that’s rubbish. Why can’t we just, like, optimize the human connection paradigm?

After that, I hit up the Takehara Art Museum. I’m not even an art person, but they had this exhibit on local artists. Some of the stuff was wild! Like, one painting looked like a cat threw up on a canvas. I’m standing there, trying to figure out if it’s genius or just plain weird. I’m laughing to myself, and this lady next to me gives me the side-eye. Chill, lady! Art is subjective, right?
