Do Americans realize that THEY are the ones who pay tariffs? Not the importing country?

Unlike your smartphone, at least magazines don't have batteries that suddenly run out while you are riding the train.

There is a movie about this guy called "Shinjuku Tiger" (新宿タイガー) made 5 or 6 years ago.

When I was a university exchange student in the late 1990s, I watched SNL with dorm mates, and it was really funny. When I'm in the US occasionally these days, I watch it, but it is not funny now.

Why only 18 years?

Lots of people die, and he uses this as a useful tool for promoting his agenda. A totally inhuman human. What a jerk!

I'm pretty sure that Trump supporters do not realize or understand that they are paying for the tariffs. They add to their cost of living.

What are the sizes of the condos you are talking about here? 1LDK, 2LDK, 3LDK?

Developing AI means we'll all lose our jobs.

Please explain this to me. Conservative Republicans are anti-LGBTQ (Trump criticized trans in his speech), so why did they start the show with "YMCA", which is like the gay national anthem?

If you are in Shinjuku in Tokyo, go to Cafe de L'Ambre! It has been there since the 1955, and has a real Showa atmosphere!

So what's the big thing about TikTok? Go to another platform.

Very nostalgic! I was in that room in 1998 taking the exam for Tokyo University. And I passed! It's a great place to study.

Sometimes it seems like they are all here in Shinjuku! Not complaining, but...

I'm just curious, but the sign has English and Korean, but no Japanese.

They are raising the lodging tax to reduce overtourism, and yet they expect to make a huge amount of money. How does that work?

Nippon Steel has too much business and US Steel doesn't have enough. US Steel would do much better under Nippon Steel. Is the US becoming a socialist state controlled economy rather than capitalist?

If things are so bad here, why do they keep coming here? You are making them look stupid. I know several personally. They are not stupid, and they are very happy working here.

I read that Nippon Steel has too much business and US Steel doesn't have enough and may go bankrupt, so the combination seems like an ideal business deal. What could go wrong?

Maybe they want to live there because if war breaks out, they think that the sky around these military facilities will be well protected.

I think that a bigger problem is that only about 60% of Japanese ever get married. What can be done to support the remaining 40% to get married? Increasing the marriage rate seems more important to me.

They don't say who bought them.

Sell viewing tickets for 10,000 yen each. Make a lot of money!

A foreign friend of mine says only Japanese could invent a sport for obese guys. What is that supposed to mean?

Just did the procedure of integrating My Number and health insurance cards. It took 5 minutes. It is all computerized. Just type in a few numbers and you're done.

Where is it?

I guess he got carried away and didn't know when to stop.

HANG!!! I don't want my tax money to be providing food and housing for this murder for the rest of his life. And put pictures of his wife and daughter in his cell.

According to friends of mine, there is a group of people who believe they intentionally let Otani hit lots of home runs and score lots of points because the attention and publicity he brings to baseball is more important than winning the game.

Maybe he was just jet lagged.
