The deletions have started.
I made a pointed and insightful comment illuminating the similarity between Madonnas plastic surgeried face and the ruins of Pompeii which was viciously stricken from the public record.

These types of stories pop up every so often, don't they? Japanese are so clean and orderly... "The house was basically a 'trash house' - you couldn't walk anywhere in this four-room home without stepping on some garbage..."

How people stay sane in Japan is the mystery for me. It's just too much. The funny farm staff must be exhausted hours before they wake up.

I really detest the idea of using AI. I would rather die suddenly from dementia than "converse" with a fucking computer program. Fuck me fuck me fuck me.

I really detest the idea of using AI. The pics I've run through it are a total fuck up. Fails to read the prompts at all and completely rogers up the generation of legible words and numbers. That said, shit is changing fast.

I really detest the idea of using AI. The pics I've run through it are a total fuck up. Fails to read the prompts at all and completely rogers up the generation of legible words and numbers. That said, shit is changing fast. For reasons to do with my family and my siblings' friends, I know some big brained computer programmers fairly well who work for FB, Google, and other firms. They all use AI for programming, but most of them live in the middle of nowhere and do not want anything to do with AI as an "assistant" or whatever, which I get. However fast things are changing, I can't see it being any replacement for a two-stroke engine at full throttle in terms of enjoying life. Put me on a boat and drive around a lake when I lose my mind. I'll be pleased as punch. Yes, computers are useful, but the buzz around AI is, from what the big brains tell me, just a lot of marketing shit so the tech bros can get investor money. Who knows?!! These guys make nearly a million a year writing programs. They know something the market wants. They also disconnect entirely after work and do things like ride ATV's where most people wouldn't even know that humans can get to such places.

Can't comment directly on another comment and they are submitted to a moderation process first? May take a while for "JD Huang" to make an appearance but I will try...

I got no problem at all with some nepo baby warpig scion of war criminals getting murdered in broad daylight by one of his loyal subjects armed with a - fucking LOL - toy gun. NOOOOOOOOOOO PROBLEM AT ALL.

I wonder if this dude is doing some kinda theater like that Avocado-whatever dude. If not some crazy reality Youtube going down and do I hit the Sub Button or not?

Being an honorary Western country means Japan gets to call their ancient faerie folk "Outside Planet People"

Not sure why the special mention of the Alkonis case as US military personnel have gotten away with all kinds of heinous crimes in Japan over the years. Better to have mentioned some French guy who got into a tussle with a 60-something Japanese guy who died from hitting his head after being pushed over by the froggie...

I saw this same story on japantoday and thought they way they wrote it was odd --
"While “I don’t remember” is an infamously common defense offered in criminal cases in Japan, the tourist may be in for a rude awakening if he thinks it’s going to function as a get-out-of-jail free phrase for him. For starters, “I don’t remember” is most commonly used as a defense in cases of physical violence, groping, or destruction of property involving kicking, smashing, or other forms of forceful impact."

Fuck. The American teen is in for an education.
Sad to read about the 60-something Japanese dude. What the fuck?!
Didn't know about the Alkonis case. Strange sentencing and outcome.
Heard about some young guy killing an older guy he didn't know for something like 200, 000 Yen. Fucked up stuff. So-called "dark jobs" seem pretty fucking obviously wrong.

Yes this incident was very tragic: "No recollection" Hopefully this frog wanker gets 40 years to think about his stupidity. Colonialism cast a long and tragic shadow. Japan continuing to kowtow to the West and resisting a stronger pivot to Asia, making real amends with China and Korea makes me sad... Elections in Japan today - going great for the new PM

In a weird way this makes me miss living in Japan, where culturally sleeping while working is kind of okay.
I knew I achieved official gaijinness when I could nap for 10 minutes between stations, but not miss mine.
