What do you think a nation should do when violently attacked? Your premise only cites the response, not the catalyst that triggered it. We found peace and partnership. Let’s celebrate that as a win together… lest we revisit all of Japan’s’ crimes and atrocities. Every nation has an ugly past. We look forward, together.

@coffee_nakayama I understand why you’re a virgin still.

40歳の童貞なのですが 今夜、57歳の彼女に僕の初体験をお願いしようと思うのですがどうでしょうか？ ダメならやめときます

@AgingAnarchist Knowing Japanese is a wonderful skill and asset. The challenge is how to leverage it as part of your profession.

大学卒業して仕事探してたとき、友達の米国人が「お前は日本語を話すというすげえスキルがあるじゃないか。簡単に仕事見つかるに決まってる。アメリカ人を見てみろ。英語しか話せないやつばっかりだろ？」と言われて検索したらフルタイムの仕事は一つもなかった。アメリカで日本語話せても需要ないよ。

@atoreiyu200001 Rude x 1,000 anywhere.

I want to ask people around the world who are not Japanese. At the restroom near Fushimi Inari Shrine last night — a sacred place — someone left diapers covered in feces and piles of trash in the hand-washing area and just walked away. Is this considered normal behavior where you come from? To whoever did this — what the hell is wrong with you? This isn’t just bad manners — it’s disgusting, disrespectful, and completely unacceptable. This is a place of worship, not a garbage dump. If anyone thinks this kind of behavior is okay, that’s the problem. Clean up your own filth and learn some basic respect. Don’t you all agree?

@tacowasa2nd We spend a fortune on our own crumbling infrastructure too. It’s just that the rules and regulations are so strict that everything is super slow and expensive.

なんでアメリカ人って、遠い外国での戦争には莫大な費用をかけるのに、自国の老朽化したインフラの更新に使う金はケチるの?

@pirooooon3 Does Japan benefit if there is not nuclear destruction of Israel? Japan and the rest of the world (including financial markets) will benefit from greater stability and predictability. Less uncertainty.

@tanpukunokami Thoughtfulness and good manners unlocks enormous openness and generosity for most Americans, particularly in the heartland. Most will go out of their way to be kind and helpful. Conversely, selfishness and rudeness will create road blocks and boundaries.

My American friends. One day I hope to make it out to the States and experience your country firsthand. Before I do, there’s something I’d love to hear from you. What are some things tourists do that come across as rude or disrespectful in America?

A bit more… American Deaths (Directly or via Proxies, since 1979) • Total Americans killed: ~900–1,000+ (mostly military, some civilians) • 1983 Beirut barracks bombing (Hezbollah): 241 US service members • 2003–2011 Iraq (Iran-backed militias): At least 603 US troops • Khobar Towers 1996: 19 US airmen • October 7, 2023 Hamas attack: ~46 Americans • Other attacks (embassies, proxies): Hundreds more Iranian Civilians Killed by Regime (Direct Repression) • Executions (2025 alone): At least 1,639 (highest in decades; average >4 per day) • January 2026 protests crackdown: Official ~3,117; independent estimates 6,000–36,500 • 2019 protests: ~1,500 • Cumulative since 1979 (executions + crackdowns): Tens of thousands (higher estimates over 100,000 including early post-revolution period) Broader Civilian/Regional Deaths via Proxies (Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis, etc.) • October 7, 2023 + Gaza war: ~1,200 on Oct 7; tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians in subsequent conflict • Lebanon/Hezbollah conflicts: Thousands of civilians over decades • Yemen (Houthis) and other proxy wars: Thousands across Iraq, Syria, Yemen, and beyond • Overall regional civilian toll (attributable to Iran/proxies since 1979): Tens to hundreds of thousands

@pirooooon3 The main reasons from the US side is about neutralizing Iran’s nuclear/missile threats, weakening its military and proxy network, and (in some rhetoric) promoting regime change for regional security.

アメリカ人に聞きたい トランプ大統領とアメリカ人は イランを占領したいのか？ それとも他の理由があるのか？ 日本人の私にはらアメリカが どうしてイランを攻撃するのは分からない 日本はホルムズ海峡が閉鎖されて 医療品が不足して困っている

@pirooooon3 Tidy. Be respectful.

ホテルをチェックアウト時の画像 友達に見せたら 『ちゃんとベッドを片付けて帰ろうよ』 と言われました ベッドを綺麗に片付けて帰る 使ったままで帰るのか どちらが正しいですか？ ①片付ける ②使ったまま ③その他 #マナー

@maimai_ahaha Take more risks.

40代以上のおじさんに聞きたい。 20代の頃の自分に 今会えるとしたら何て言いますか？ 「もっと遊べ」？ 「もっと貯金しろ」？ 「あの子に告白しとけ」？ 一言だけ教えてください。 21歳の私に言われてると思って聞きます🥺

@learning_yohei We do but usually only at private schools. Fancy.

日本から投稿しています🇯🇵アメリカ人に質問があります。どうしてアメリカ人の学生は制服を着ないのですか？🇺🇸日本では、大学を除いて、多くの学校で制服を着ています。🇯🇵😳

@ankoromochuu Such a beautifully worded and thoughtful response and observation. You captured the essence in the purest way. 😎

最近、気づいたけど、アメリカ人はとてもお世辞が上手。 彼らのコミュニケーション能力は素晴らしい。 日本人はそれを素直に捉えてしまうことがあって、褒められ慣れてない私たちは有頂天になってしまう… 私たちは謙虚さを忘れてはいけない。 私は最近、謙虚さに欠けていた気がする。 気をつけます。

Good: * Freedom, while it lasts * Gorgeous and varied wilderness and terrain of all kinds * Diverse communities of Americans that love America (Japanese Americans, Italian Americans, etc.) * The greatest of friends, the worst of enemies Bad: * Cancel culture by some that blocks dialogue and reconciliation * Outsiders financing civil unrest to protest leaders they don't support * Tolerance for fraud and inefficiency * K - 12 public education

@CollinRugg I'm not reading it. I don't care. His actions make his manifesto meaningless, and he'll get not attention from me.

NEW: The manifesto for alleged White House Correspondents’ Dinner gunman Cole Allen has been released. In the manifesto, Allen mocked Secret Service for being "incompetent" and for the poor security at the hotel. Here is the manifesto, in part, per the New York Post: "Hello everybody! So I may have given a lot of people a surprise today. Let me start off by apologizing to everyone whose trust I abused. ... On to why I did any of this: I am a citizen of the United States of America. What my representatives do reflects on me. And I am no longer willing to permit a ped*phile, rap*st, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes. ... Administration officials (not including Mr. Patel): they are targets, prioritized from highest-ranking to lowest Secret Service: they are targets only if necessary, and to be incapacitated non-lethally if possible (aka, I hope they’re wearing body armor because center mass with shotguns messes up people who *aren’t* Hotel Security: not targets if at all possible (aka unless they shoot at me) ... Rebuttals to objections: Objection 1: As a Christian, you should turn the other cheek. Rebuttal: Turning the other cheek is for when you yourself are oppressed. I’m not the person raped in a detention camp. I’m not the fisherman executed without trial. I’m not a schoolkid blown up or a child starved or a teenage girl abused by the many criminals in this administration. ... Thank you all for everything. Sincerely, Cole “coldForce” “Friendly Federal Assassin” Allen PS: Ok now that all the sappy stuff is done, what the hell is the Secret Service doing? Sorry, gonna rant a bit here and drop the formal tone. Like, I expected security cameras at every bend, bugged hotel rooms, armed agents every 10 feet, metal detectors out the wazoo. What I got (who knows, maybe they’re pranking me!) is nothing. No damn security. Not in transport. Not in the hotel. Not in the event. Like, the one thing that I immediately noticed walking into the hotel is the sense of arrogance. I walk in with multiple weapons and not a single person there considers the possibility that I could be a threat. The security at the event is all outside, focused on protestors and current arrivals, because apparently no one thought about what happens if someone checks in the day before. ... Video: @AsraNomani

@NekorinEnglish "My bad. Let's go get some tacos."

アメリカ人と結婚して、アメリカ在住10年超だけど、 日本との「謝り方の差」がヤバすぎる 🇯🇵 日本 「すみません」 「申し訳ございません」 「ご迷惑をおかけしました」 「私の確認不足です」 「以後気をつけます」 「全部こちらの責任です」 「私が悪かったです」 🇺🇸 アメリカ↓

@learning_yohei No no... we only eat very tiny portions. Oh wait, we're not French. Yes. Big chonks for portions, very typically.

アメリカ人っていつもこんな大きくて美味しそうなステーキ食べてるの？僕にも食べさせてよ！🥩🍴🤭 🇺🇸🤝🇯🇵
