Insipid

Like or dislike Abe, this still was a shocking event for Japanese people. Peace of mind is something valuable that has been lost in a country where gun violence is extraordinarily rare.

Yes, there are a few, and no, they aren't out of line. The one near me is next to a Sunoco, and the Marathon typically has its gas a few cents cheaper, lol

I participate more in an international internet forum these days, and one of the people said they write English more often than their native language these days to the point where they don't think they can write something formal like a school essay anymore in their native language. I thought that's quite an interesting phenomenon. I'm also greatly losing interest in befriending stereotypical monolingual Americans who have no interest in other cultures ever again. I suppose I can't hold something like that against certain people, but whatever.

I guess I can use weeb speak again here. otanjoubi omedetou gozaimasu, nameraka hanzaisha

Yamagami, the suspect, claimed the Unification Church had caused his mother to go into bankruptcy, and he accused Abe of allowing it to come into Japan. This "church" is more like a Jehovah's Witness cult: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unification_Church So there's the actual motive.

I know, but there were still two stores relatively close to me. The pandemic killed them.

Shame, I really liked their cream of spinach, although I'd only get it like twice a year.

lawl, my mother just arrived in Japan two days ago. She's the neurotic and superstitious type too, so. That's all I really have to add. I'm not gonna pretend to know the motivations behind the attack. And although public violence is rarer in Japan, I'm not certain political assassinations actually are that much rarer. And if you go back to the feudal days, they probably were more common than in the West. Charlie Chaplin was almost assassinated when another Japanese prime minister was a few years before the start of WW2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_15_Incident There's also this:

Duolingo is shit anyway. I was more referring to the ability to find resources and native speakers by using the internet.

Learning a foreign language is one of the most rewarding things you can do with the internet, imo. So there's a suggestion.

I felt so good to claim soybomb, the very first account. It even had that SwimInsider rank when I got it. Unfortunately, it didn't do anything, and when the admin found out it was claimed they removed the rank.

What did you get banned for?

I remember one time there was a discussion about Japanese kanji in IB, and the way he tried explaining it works was completely wrong. I was honestly pretty shocked, and from that point onward I really questioned his "authority." I never said anything about it because I really didn't like interacting with him. He was just fortunate there weren't any IBers who were serious about learning Japanese. Had he tried his crap on certain subreddits, he would have been castigated by other white men that like to claim authority on Asian cultural studies.

No, not the Japanese gambling game, but the Korean drama. I honestly feel like it's the best thing I've watched since Breaking Bad ended.

I'm sure some things will happen by then. It's still the working hours after all.

Maybe it's just time for a new constitution. It may seem like such a radical idea to the American mind, but constitutions have been rewritten frequently in most other countries. To say something is unconstitutional based on a document written such a long time ago seems pretty retarded. A lot has changed since then.

At this point, I'm just popping up here and there to hopefully see the final moments of the one real iteration of the ASMB. That survey held recently makes me think the mods are having similar sentiments to OP. That pathetic joke of a discord doesn't count.

Good enough. This happened like two weeks after my main was banned, back in April. My upstairs neighbor, the one directly above my unit, had killed himself. I was sleeping under his corpse for four days until he was discovered. I wasn't that close with him. I just know when his husband died last year, he became for depressed and reclusive. I think he also wasn't able to afford rent anymore, as he talked about moving. Still, the apartments really aren't that expensive, so he must have fallen on some very hard times. I know he was also a baton twirler in the gay parades that happen this time of year.

I'm still alive - although to be honest, I don't think anyone gives a shit. It's bnmjy. I'm just not that into this community anymore. Been coming here less and less. So if I stop coming here, just assume I've completely lost interest. A few people have my contact info, so. I do have a morbid mental health tale, that doesn't particularly involve me, but did affect me, if you guys are interested.

I hope Kudasai is doing all right.

Since when do Atheists worship anything? Maybe some dick-ride Richard Dawkins but . . . that's not really the same thing.
