Judging by how arrests for pot possession here are up, I imagine I'll start getting stopped for being gaijin again this year.

How can you beat Japan with that massive vaccine roll out to 0.3% of the population?

China did...with apparently has no new infections or deaths

You may well be right that it is important, in particular if more or less everyone is wearing the non woven similar to surgical masks people wear here. I'm still not sure that explains it all though - It really has been so much worse in Europe and America even though test and trace were much more d...

This is really disgusting....

Why the UK and other European countries were hit so hard is a mystery but there is no denying the impact. It's been pretty traumatic in comparison. In hindsight, I think it's mostly due to masking. Too many potential mass spreading situations than never panned out here to deny how effective it has ...

Nope, although I do have a relevant condition. Everyone around was a bit surprised as people in their 80s haven't got one yet. Unfortunately my doctor was also surprised and hasn't got any stock yet!

indeed...but I've been informed by the locals (obvious authority on the subject) that stigmas are Japanese culture and must be preserved.

Matsuki, I hope you went further up the main valley and burned your ass at 尻焼温泉 Shiriyaki Onsen. If not, it is worth a repeat journey, hot rocks in the riverbed make the whole flowing river an onsen, and it allows you to fly your "allowing your genitals to be visible in a place open to public ...

Well...they are more cheerleader-esque than what you would get in other countries if they attempted the same thing. Still, who comes up with this shit? (and how does it get approved in a country that drags it's feet on school policies updating to reflect basic human rights?)

I wonder if mother Russia is immune to wokeism....and then I remember the Russian chickas I know talmbout how they would beat up a potential customer rather than be forced to make them a gay-themed cake.

I had my regular visit recently. Shut down and sent on his way within 30 second. Accidentally answered because I thought it was an amazon delivery....they're using plainclothes baba's an jiji's on mamachari to deliver now. WTF?

The one in my local mall consistently has more staff than customers. What a fuggin joke....

Ehhh, I don't have any tattoos and while I am definitely no fan of the whole woke idiocy going on in the west, my whole point was to not be a prude in an product ad. Have you not noticed that the nativist populists are absolutely useless at making any sense or at doing things. All they are really g...

I think, they are right. If the wifey sees a tattoo, she wouldn't buy whatever is advertised, just because of that, even if it has nothing to do with it. Rejection of tattoos seems to be pretty deeply ingrained in their programming. Couldn't you photoshop a long sleeve t-shirt underneath whatever t...
