Clearly the girl wasn't thinking in the right frame of mind. The prosecutors need to be reminded that this wasn't something a person would do with a logical mind! What a complete waste of tax-payers money!

A lot of left leaners running to this site from X. I won't be surprised if it goes the way of Wewe and others though. Trying to go into competition with X is like throwing a glass of water against the rain.

Explain to me what you like about Trump.

Everything! That and the fact he's not a Democrat!

Though, I will admit, he's far more likely to try to turn the military on Americans themselves than America's foes.

Lol. No.

You just know someone is going to use this one day washing shoes, the next making giant smoothies. No-one notices until they find something nefarious amongst the blended strawberries!

Posted in: Planet 'on the brink', with new heat records likely in 2024: U.N. See in context

You can literally fit every person on the planet on Manhattan island. No such thing as overpopulation on a global level. Yet we're expected to believe the leftist trolls, most of whom have never done anything to combat the issues at hand, that the world is on the brink?

Lol

Posted in: McDonald's operations in Japan resume after IT outage See in context

This isn't the full story. It happened in many businesses across Japan and the globe. Shopping in YouMe Town this afternoon and shelves were almost empty because a software glitch (apparently) rendered deliveries useless as drivers were not able to see digital manifests. In store operations were also affected and item scanners and self-checkout tills were not operating as usual. The poor staff had to check baskets for items not given their labeled discounts. Something fishy here.

Posted in: Potentially dirty and broken used shinkansen food/beverage carts on sale in Japan for ¥100,000 See in context

Although pricier on board than the convenience store, getting coffee et-al from the cart was always part of the experience of traveling here.

It's a service that'll be missed.

Posted in: Central Tokyo condo average price tops ¥100 mil for 1st time See in context

Those traditional houses are dangerous. The heavy roof looks nice but not recommended. Also remote areas are not connected easily to necessities such as hospitals supermarkets and so on. Better to live in the city, especially as we age.

They are built to withstand whatever mother nature throws at them.

I live in the sticks, with a big house, very large garden, paid 15% of the price of the Tokyo condo for a 3 year old house, and all amenities are less than 15 minutes away in any direction.

Originally from London, you couidn't pay me to go back or move to Tokyo. Much prefer the peace of mind countryside living gives me as I age.

Due to climate change, landslides have increased by 50% in a decade.

No evidence whatsoever to support such a claim!

Posted in: 'Friends' star Matthew Perry, 54, found dead at home See in context

As information trickles out, it seems the drowning is a result of unconsciousness due to the heart attack.

Regardless, we can all thank him for his service to putting a smile on our faces. Personally, I don't feel he was given the credit he deserved for his roles after Friends, but he's an actor none of us will forget anytime soon.

RIP Matthew Perry and thank you for the laughs!

I can't wait to hear the apologies the assemblyman will be making, even though he wasn't involved. Sad that the entire family suffers for one's stupidity. They should be in mourning, more than anything.

Sounds like you're ridiculing his family as though they're going to make excuses for him.

Can we spare a thought of the absolute anguish and heartbreak his mother, and possibly his father, are going through right now? As a father to three boys here, my oldest being 22, I would be absolutely heartbroken that my boy did something like this. Not just for him, but for the victims and their families.

Safe to say, this guy has sealed his fate. RIP to all those who had their lives taken.

Wrong. Biden IS the worst President in History! Period!

Posted in: Teacher moonlighting as bar host arrested in Nagoya See in context

The man is just trying to earn some extra cash. Teacher salaries are not great as it is, so you can't blame him for wanting to boost his income. If he knew the law pertaining to soliciting though, well, he only has himself to blame.

Police officials said there is a possibility of overreaction to something that may turn out to be harmless.

Given that the owner later claimed the package, I'd say so. But understandable.

Posted in: Kishida outlines plans to tackle falling birthrate See in context

It's expensive to have a kid here. And the rules for getting kids into kindergarten are ridiculous! Especially if you're a part time worker, you have to be working a minimum 60 hours a month. If not, your kid doesn't get in to school and you basically have to quit working. Then, if you make more than the average wage, you pay between $600 - $1k+ /month for fees!

Kishida needs a reality check, especially given how expensive everything has become on his watch!
