Japan A does not exist. Zen Japan does not exist. It’s all dopamine addicted consumerism and hedonism. Dollar store goodies, alcoholism, Don-Quixotism, putting cool rims and window tint on your Toyota Prius.

I’m joking about the Quixotism btw. I just wanted to pay tribute to the Don Quijote stores, a great window into the Japanese dopagaki (ドパガキ) mind. If anything the Japanese mind is the opposite of quixotic. It’s why leftist idealism is so rare there.

Isn’t this true about k-pop tho? Their fans insist on «Hell Joseon», but claim it’s why the girls/twinks are skilled. They’re Squid Gamed™, then exploited & slaving 24/7 for perfection, making their "art" better than Western amateurism.
“people are obsessed with japanese media but clearly HATE japanese people” is the worst pseudo intellectual babble you’ll hear regurgitated on this site. imagine if someone said this about like, a guy criticising America or American culture while liking Breaking Bad

This isn’t normal. Covers for 2021-2024 Defense White Papers were austere or abstract. It’s a new direction to rely on relatable quirkchungus™ graphic design
Japan’s government has released its 2026 defense white paper (yes, this is the cover page). The document directly addresses Japan’s population-driven manpower shortages, drawing on lessons from Ukraine and pitching a force structure highly reliant on drone systems.

Sleep tight. Tomorrow is the prison tuna-salad birthday cake day.

I love how the Japanese do lighting. It seems like everywhere you go, it's low and warm lighting. It's pleasant.

Google earth aéroplane aerials make it very easy. Hardest part is finding the room type by matching pics.

I think the birthrate crisis is a big deal, and shows something is very wrong in our societies. But it’s hard to articulate that without sounding like a “why won’t the women sex me” incel.
Speaking of Don Quijote stores, famous Japan expert ™ Luigi Mangione blames them for Japan’s birthrate crisis 🤔

PAKiStan is an acronym. My world turned upside down The “i” was added later to ease pronunciation.

I hate the saying “nine-to-five job”. Nobody has such amazing conditions. It’s always eight-to-five, or nine-to-six. At least.

Japanese immigrants grew all the berries in America. Then America decided to shove them all in concentration camps, decimating supply. The very merry berry industry vows to never repeat this mistake. Signed FTAs ensure a steady supply of berries from Canada, Mexico, and Peru.
Berries are naturally available a few days a year. But because they are so delicious, the miracle of capitalism makes them available year-round. Fuck seasonal produce. The capitalist consumer eats what he wants, when he wants it

The anti-AI left-ish crowd are ironically most prone to get one-shotted by AI (see: Thélyson Orélien debacle) — they live life with blinders on, and can’t recognize its tics.
Anti-AI YouTube channel with millions of views & 150k subs is 96% AI scripted according to Pangram

Alice Weidel (AfD leader) barely spends time in Germany. She lives with her Sri Lanka born film producer wife in some deep Swiss village, where they raise two sons. Oh, and she’s an expert on the Chinese pension system.

Nope. I’ve never seen a nation that loves extremely bright neon white lights as much as Japan. Pics are avg living rooms. Luxury hotels can give off very wrong impressions.
I love how the Japanese do lighting. It seems like everywhere you go, it's low and warm lighting. It's pleasant.
