I have Friday movie night online with my friends in California. I live in Japan. So Daylight Savings means I log in at 9am Saturday morning for 6 months, and 10am for 6 months.
Do I live 17 hours in the future or 18? What month is it?
He looks like he's taking delivery of Han Solo in carbonite from Boba Fett
There's a party in my brain and EVERYONE'S INVITED!
The aging are the biggest voting block in Japan. Young people are not going to get any money from the government to help them start a family until they become a majority, and that is never going to happen as the generations shrink. Foreigners are a convenient distraction from that inconvenient truth
I accidentally started a cult.
Ooo! Maybe "I'm your huckleberry" will make a comeback!
Worse than that, it seems to be implying that we are now so morally evolved beyond that time that it should be ancient history, but a cursory glance at the current sociopolitical state of the US and that analysis comes apart so fast you could get hit by shrapnel
Welcome to the Bones-of-Dust club, little sister. We have cookies... and ibuprofen.

I'm ambivalent about that.
A sticker received for finishing a Great King Yeti the One Pounder at Burger King in Japan.
That's great, and all, but I prefer the store music down at the DONKI
My favorite Ninja fact is because of a cultural misunderstanding the popular culture version of a Ninja is dressed like a Japanese stage hand.
Sadly, there are no Denny's west of Osaka, so I am about 10 hours drive from the closest one.
Did you go there just for cheese?

I was even excited about AI when it was about protein folding simulation and bulk translation of cuneiform tablets, before it became about putting artists out of work and generating revenge porn & CSAM.
This is what happens when you have writers who neither like nor understand the franchise they are writing for. Why didn't they get the setting right? Because they never paid attention to the source material.
Are you saying turtles are still and contemplative? You really haven't spent much time around turtles, have you?
Libertarians are like housecats, completely dependent on systems they do not appreciate or understand.
Why would I ever stop?
I just imagine him getting carved up as he struggles to pull the thing out of the wall.
Aw... I had high hopes for that one. Looked like it had a "12 Monkeys but absurdist comedy" vibe going on, based on the trailer.
I think the proper follow up question is "was that before or after the brain worm?"
Nice job on the gems.
My summary of Japanese culture has always been "fetishized fetishism and weaponized cute"
That's called "scraping the bottom of the barrel and coming up with barrel."
It suits you
One grandma died when my mom was young, and step-grandma didn't like grandpa's kids very much. No talking to them. Dad's mom died in a mental institution. Never met her, and step-grandma got bullied by her daughter into cutting all grandad's kids out of her will, so,... hard nope all around, thanks.
