Trump pardoned Charles Kushner, the father of his Jewish son-in-law, Jared Kushner.

Yes.

Trump has Charles Kushner, to serve as the next US ambassador to France.

We know, we talked about it yesterday.

So what, I should not post about it?

I buy my glasses from a ¥100 shop, five at a time. Reading only. I would have to pay about ¥16,000 if I got them from an optician.

Posted in: Liverpool flip script on Man City to take commanding Premier League lead See in context

The Slot era's start has been wonderful and even better than Klopp's first year. The team members click and work with each other. They are currently missing from the Man City team.

Nothing can be taken away from Pep Guardiola the greatest manager in the Premier League.

Newcastle are up next.

The bombing and killing will not stop even if all the hostages are released. Israel has no end-game plan.

Trump needs to read the news. Gaza is already hell on earth. 50,000 dead including women, children, and babies. Destruction of all the buildings. Restricted aid trucks.

I know the number but I don’t have a card. Nobody ever asked me to get a card or sent me one to my knowledge. My health card is valid until next August, expect I’ll get a letter from city hall before then.

Probably nothing will happen unless you make it. Before next August you will need a My Number card from your city office.

I haven’t even got a My Number card, far as I know was never sent one unless my ex took it.

Everyone has a "number". Go to your city office and sort it because you will need it for your healthcare.

MY Number is only valid for five years for use in the ATM. My Resident Card is for 7 years. After the first five years, I renew My Number. Two years later I renewed my Residents Card and then also My Number again.

I will continue to use my Health Card until it expires next summer. It was renewed yearly after I retired. I have used My Number once and without problem. Just scan the card.

Liverpool was brilliant, with Gapko scoring the first goal in 12 minutes. Man City was disorganized and lacked teamwork. Guardiola is the best manager in the Premier League, having won six out of seven titles. Liverpool are 8 points clear at the top.

The fire services should be able to establish the cause of the fire. Dying in a fire, even from smoke inhalation is a dreadful way to die.

Looking at the video there is a large rear balcony untouched by the fire.

Posted in: Over 100 countries back plastic treaty caps as talks reach fierce finish See in context

Bottled water is sold in PET plastic bottles. Millions of them. An estimated 1.3 billion plastic bottles are used each day across the world, which is about 1 million per minute. Many end up in the rivers and oceans helping to create microplastics.

Japan imports PET bottles of water from Europe and the US. Crazy when Japan has water, plain and mineral.

Trump remains a felon and was found liable for sexual abuse. There is no way back to a clean sheet. A police mugshot remains on file.

Some Japanese litter, throwing bento boxes and drink cans out of their car windows. When I walk along a beautiful river, I'm disgusted to find even a single piece of litter that could harm the wildlife. Unfortunately, there's always more than one piece.
