Photo uploading issues

Is anyone else having issues when they try to upload photos to blogs/reviews? I keep getting a message saying upload failed, and I've tried from my computer and my phone (and also tried the "turn it off and turn it on again" approach!) Thanks for any insight!

    I just tried to upload a photo for a review, and yes, I got the upload failed message.

    @TonetoEdo Thank you! I wanted to make sure it wasn't an internet issue on my side of things, but it seems like the whole site must be having issues. I don't think it'll be fixed on the weekend but hopefully next week they'll see this!

    @genkidesu I was able to upload a photo for a blog post, however. Here's hoping the review photo issue gets noticed by the admin on Monday.

Your "buy it for life" purchases in Japan

There's a reddit community I really enjoy reading called r/buyitforlife. As the name suggests, people outline purchases that they've made that truly stand the test of time. Kitchen items, clothing, shoes, etc... What have been your "buy it for life" items here?

How well does your home country insulate homes compared to here?

One thing I struggle with is the lack of insulation in Japanese homes, with summers often feeling like you're living in a sauna and winters feeling like outside is the same temperature as inside. In saying that, my home country isn't fab with insulation either. They're still very much a nation of single paned windows and minimal stuff in the walls to regulate temperature well. Does your home country do insulation well compared to here?

Do you wear kimono? When and where?

In what environments have you worn kimono, hakama, or other traditional clothing? My only kimono experience is Heian period garb - basket hat, veil, and hakama - at a regional festival. I'm curious about daily kimono wear. Have you found a community or school that trains you in kimono wear? How much time do you dedicate to dressing?
