#HYDE 氏の「オーストリア共和国有功栄誉銀章」授与式にご招待いただき、オーストリア大使館で特別なひとときを過ごしました🇦🇹
I first discovered HYDE’s voice through “Red Swan,” and it’s still my favorite song he sings.
On Friday, at the Austrian Embassy in Tokyo, HYDE (@HydeOfficial_ ) received the Silver Decoration of Honour for Services to the Republic of Austria in recognition of his work bringing Austria and Japan closer through music and culture 🇦🇹🇯🇵
It was a small gathering, so there was time to meet people and talk between photos. After the ceremony, I had a chance to chat briefly with HYDE about his time in Vienna and Salzburg and the upcoming production of #MOZART!, in which I’ll be playing Colloredo. I’m heading to Salzburg myself soon, so it was especially nice to hear about his visit.
During the ceremony, we watched a short film looking back on his work as Austria’s tourism ambassador. Seeing those familiar streets brought back memories of the years I lived in Vienna. Even watching from Tokyo, it still felt like home.
Congratulations, HYDE, and thank you to the Austrian Embassy for inviting me.

My sister just walked in and found this.
Her little boy turned the entire PS5 and both controllers into a blue marker canvas. She’s still standing there staring at it, not even sure how to react.
One thing’s clear: the damage is done. But how do you actually explain to a small kid that this was wrong without turning the whole thing into chaos?
What would you do in her place?
for those who don't know, steroid use with young people is an epidemic right now. This dude will be dead soon.
I think he is like 21, and he looks 50+
This is not healthy, this is mental illness at this point.
