Same here. But its hovering around 5C, rain, wind, hail, thunder then sun. Rinse and repeat..........

[Wage Slave]

5C in August? Where are you?

5C in August? Where are you?

Ozzy, Kiwi, Chili, or Argo?

Ah yes, Of course. Oz, I seem to recall.

[Taka-Okami]

Ozzy, Kiwi, Chili, or Argo?

Yeah in Oz atm. Gettin sick of this shitty cold weather....

[Grumpy Gramps]

Lots of wind, lots of rain here right now makes for good comfy poncho/wellies doggie walks. Unfortunately considerably more than 5°C.

Finally, wl'll all know, if there is any truth about the weather in the bible:

Will the 2017 solar eclipse cause a secret planet called 'Nibiru' to destroy Earth next month?

Conspiracy theorists around the world are claiming that a planet will collide with Earth this September - and that the coming solar eclipse will signal the apocalypse's beginning.

David Meade, author of 'Planet X – The 2017 Arrival', asserts the planet Nibiru (also known as Planet X) will crash into our own on 23 September 2017.

Although scientists deny the planet's existence, Meade is convinced he is right after finding bible passages to support his claims.

Earlier this year Meade asserted that Nibiru would crash into Earth in October, however he has now moved the date forward a few weeks.

The Great American Eclipse - the total solar eclipse which will enshroud parts of the US in complete darkness on 21 August - now apparently indicates the planet's arrival.

Too hot here anyway, so bring it on!

[Mike Oxlong]

We've had three earthquakes in the last two days, which is fairly unusual for this part of the country. There were also two more in Kyushu's far south. The end is nigh!

I cannot understand why krazy-korean Jomon cavemen thought Japan was a good place to inhabit.

Tokyo-weather.jpg

The public address system in Ota-ku Tokyo was blasting heat warnings at noontime like a tsunami was imminent.

[BigInJapan]

The public address system in Ota-ku Tokyo was blasting heat warnings at noontime like a tsunami was imminent.

In my little corner of Fukuoka, the neighbourhood PA system has been announcing heat warnings daily usually by 10AM (for the last couple of weeks).
Make sure you stay cool*, drink lots of fluids, and don't stay outside in the direct sun for too long, etc.
*I think most of the casualties of heatstroke are oldsters stuck inside with no A/C.

Well that bitch of a typhoon Lan started out threatening us, but finally skipped by last night with hardly a blow job. Hope Tokyo at least gets fucked. Good luck suckers!

Lots of rain here, but not much wind.

[Wage Slave]

It's been raining pretty much non stop for the last week. All the typhoons we have had for a while have been little more than some proper wind and heavy rain - there have been a couple of near misses for flooding but nothing really serious. I hope the same is true of this one. The amount of rain we have already had makes me a bit nervous though - flooding is such a bitch. Spring tide was yesterday and that doesn't help at all. Monday morning will be a bit nervous for quite a few people.

[Takechanpoo]

my northern tama area has no worries about both flood and landslid regardless how big typhoon comes.

[Wage Slave]

My rather expensive area has zero worries from either as well so you can cut the gloating, worm. Unlike you, I have friends who live in areas that are vulnerable. And unlike you, I am capable of empathy. I'd be careful of that by the way as it's a classic sign of sociopathic and psychopathic personality disorder.

[Takechanpoo]

I cannot understand why krazy-korean Jomon cavemen thought Japan was a good place to inhabit.

jomon people is classified as Haplogroup D and came to this island about 15000 ago while yayoi people is classfied as Haplogroup O.
jomon was not ancient korean, needless to say and its even suspicious the mainstream of yayoi was ancient korean. recent studies have shown that some of yayois lived around yangtze river. you can say at most some of yayois were ancient korean.

かつて盛んに唱えられていた日本人南方起源説が、否定された。人種の違いを識別できる「血液型Gｍ遺伝子」の分布から、日本人の先祖はロシアのバイカル湖から南下してきたことが判明したのだ。「日本民族バイカル湖畔起源説」である（松本秀雄『日本人は何処から来たか』ＮＨＫブックス）。さらに、ＤＮＡ研究の進化によって、新人（ホモ・サピエンス）が15万年前にアフリカ大陸に生まれ、その後世界各地に散らばっていったことも証明された。

父から息子につながっていくY染色体の研究が急速に進み、日本人のルーツ探しが一気に加速したのだ。ちなみに、Y染色体はA～Tの系統に分かれ、日本人に関わりの深かったのはDとOの系統だ。

バイカル湖畔から南下し華北に暮らしていたＤ系統だが、漢民族の圧迫から逃れるためにさらに南下し日本列島にやってきて、縄文人の中核を形成した。かたや、弥生時代に渡来した人々は長江流域で水稲栽培をしていたO系統だ。やはり、漢民族に滅ぼされて逃れてきたという。また、朝鮮半島の人びともO系統である。

　現代の日本人の体の中に占めるＤ系統の割合は3割、O系統は5割と、渡来系の比率が高い。この数字だけ見れば、やはり渡来人に先住民が圧倒されたと思えてくる。　しかし、前回示した「少数渡来」「先住民との融合」「列島人の稲作民化」「継承された縄文文化」「稲作民の人口爆発」という有力な仮説を用いれば、謎はなくなる

actually i was in my childhood. i could not understand other peoples emotions by standing on their viewpoints. and abused and killed cats and dogs in my neighborhood by beating, cutting and stabbing their eyes, ear, tail and belly. but studying philosophy(mainly german) in the high school and university days saved me.

[Wage Slave]

Saved you from what. Prison? Secure psychiatric facility? I hate to say this but that's not exactly high standards.

Just a question, Takechan, but did you also have the urge in your childhood to start fires, and did you wet your bed until you were a teenager?

[Wage Slave]

Are you sure you want to go down this road Russell? Probably the most interesting training session I ever did was led by a psychiatric nurse. Quite a revelation - she was in no doubt at all that the diagnosis you really don't want to have is personality disorder and severe personality disorder basically means lock him up and throw away the key. Dangerous stuff. Far more dangerous than schizophrenic or something like that.

Nah, Takechan should be fine...

What makes a child psychopathic?

The concept of a psychopathic child makes people queasy. The two categories seem incompatible. Children, even badly behaved ones, are viewed as maintaining some fundamental innocence, whereas psychopaths are seen as fundamentally depraved. Neither stereotype is totally true. Children, just like adults, are capable of cruelty and violence, and even highly psychopathic people are not cruel or violent all of the time.

Psychopathy is a developmental disorder. It doesn’t emerge out of nowhere in adulthood – all psychopathic adults show signs during adolescence or childhood.

But this doesn’t mean we should label a child a psychopath – far from it. No responsible researcher or clinician ever would. Even though every adult psychopath began as a psychopathic child, the reverse is not true: many children with high psychopathy scores do not go on to become adult psychopaths. And remission can occur in response to favourable changes in a child’s environment, or as a result of innate developmental processes.

its more simple and boring. no physical phenomenon had been shown except for biting nails.
my brain just lived in my own la la land in which i didnt notice if someone came to hate me for my careless words and deeds.
its so-called the state that 空気が読めない(you cant read the atmosphere)
studying philosophy saved me from the la la land.

So, what did you study, German or Philosophy?

And what is your take on Nietzsche?

Since I live in Japan, it's definately not lalaland...

Also... wind and rain... 980mb... not too bad pressure wise...
