Japan has a relationship with English that no other country has. Signs don't always translate correctly. "Baby in car" instead of "Baby on board." "Fried chickin" on a menu. "Let's enjoy!" on a pencil. To foreigners, it's "Engrish." To Japanese, it's just decoration. The words don't need to make sense. They need to feel modern. And that gap — between what English means to Americans and what it means to Japanese — is where a whole industry lives. "I'll buy it, because it's weird." That's not a mistake. That's a market.

@TwinkBukowski Cialis, mate.

Last night I did the impossible. I convinced the slightly overweight but it went to the right places asian bartender to come check out my “camper van” after her shift. We met at a nearby park and after revealing a lot of sad facts about my life I started to kiss her and wrap my sweater around her neck and shove her into the van where she dutifully sucked me off until I almost came. I then tried to have actual penetrative sex with her but she was squeamish about STDs (which aren’t real) and her lack of trust made me soft. I tried to save the day using my trusty strawberry lubricant but she just laughed at me. She bought a signed copy of my book for $20 and left got in her truck and at 4 AM left. It was a 7 hour campaign.

@eagleseyeinc Why would anyone want to live on Mars? It's a barren hellscape.

things that will happen by 2050, i've dug deep in connection to millennia patterns and obvious present blueprints to get these bookmark and save for the future 1. the world population hits 10b; 8 billion now, 10 billion by 2050. food production needs to increase by 60%, water shortages will affect 5 billion people. 2. AI replaced 800 million jobs; drivers, cashiers, accountants, bankers, lawyers, analysts, technicians, radiologists, chefs, waiters. 800m jobs gone in a snap, the biggest unemployment crisis in human history. 3. most elites will live on mars; spacex plans a colony by 2050, first humans born on another planet. one-way trip, most not wanna come back. 4. the dead come back as AI; their voice, their face, their memories all stored. AI versions of dead relatives will talk to you, death no longer means gone. 5. your face becomes your ID; facial recognition in every store, every street, every building, no anatomy, governments know where you are every second this is where the one world government comes in. 6. cash goes extinct; sweden already 98% cashless and by 2050 physical money is dead, every transaction and every purchase recorded and tracked. 7. lab meat replaces real animals; real meat becomes a luxury only the rich can afford. everyone else eats meat grown in factories from cells. i will personally come back to this tweet in 2051, buena suerte 👍

@JohnMur20497662 @BuenoForMiami You've been lied to.

@BuenoForMiami Uncircumcised men deal with a lifetime of infections. Happy my parents did that for me.

These comments make me incredibly sad. When I discuss circumcision, 100% of the time men comment that they’re so happy they were circumcised as babies because it’s better for them and they wouldn’t want it done as adults. What they don’t seem to understand is that they were robbed - not only of thousands of nerve endings, but of the choice. Study the history of circumcision in the USA: it was implemented to control men, stop masturbation, and reduce pleasure. Also, today’s circumcision is NOT the same as the one in Judaism: that was a small slit, not the full removal of the prepuce and frenulum. Your parents don’t have the right to alter your body for their beliefs. We don’t allow this for anything else; why don’t men matter as much as women?

@retardmode @joeybeastmarket It's true. I was the migrants.

my beautiful date and i ordered over $300 of food thru the qr code trifold on our table. after some time had passed, we flagged a waiter down. he explained that the qr code on our table was switched with someone else’s. we left. on the way out, we passed a table full of bug eyed migrants chowing down on our oysters & steak tartar. i hate qr codes

There are so many subtle societal changes contributing to the declining birth rate. With this QR code I never have to leave my table at the packed and loud Bierhaus. How convenient. Back in the day you’d have to walk past nineteen beautiful women with 6 beers in your hand and to and from the bar to get your drink. Probably 50% of all bar-based relationships started with the walk-by. Hello beautiful I’ll return to you in a moment. Actually wait here. Let’s get one together. What’s your name? You look delicious. Completely erased from society. I’ll never get laid again. If you scan a QR code you are antinatalist

@frontierindica When you're in a self-hating competition and your opponent is an Indian twitter user.

Because our "healthy traditional diet" is what medieval peasants barely scraped together to survive famines and droughts, and we turned that into a virtue signalling purity spiral where carb maxxing became culture. 4 aloo paranthas dripping in butter for breakfast. Full plate rice-daal-alu sabzi-puri for lunch. 6 rotis with watery daal and 2 pieces of analogue paneer drowned in seed oil gravy for dinner. 62% of the average Indian's calories come from carbs, only 12% from protein. We now have 101 million diabetics and 136 million pre-diabetics. Wonder why. Our "traditional home cooked food" is basically a toxic cocktail of superstition, historical ignorance, and scientific illiteracy cosplaying as culture.

@alreadydawn Lived in Vietnam 12 years. Never seen an Amazon package. There are other services here.

Amazon's last-mile delivery is tailored to each country. In Japan, packages are left in a pile on the street. Something something high-trust society. In Vietnam, some packages are delivered via boats. Special terrain require special solutions. In India, not only is the receiver required to present at the time of delivery, the deliverer must open the package right then and there.. due to the prevalence of scams from the deliverer's side.

@shanaka86 A roof would fix this.

Look at this image carefully. You are looking at a Chinese commercial satellite photograph of Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia. Every red box is an artificial intelligence model identifying a US military aircraft by type. Every label is in Mandarin. And the base you are looking at is the one Iran fired ballistic missiles at on Saturday night. A company called MizarVision, founded five years ago in Hangzhou, published this. Not the Pentagon. Not the CIA. Not a classified intelligence briefing delivered to the Situation Room. A Chinese startup with access to sub-meter resolution Earth observation satellites and an AI object detection model that can distinguish a KC-135 Stratotanker from a KC-46 Pegasus from orbit. Aviation Week confirmed what the image shows. Fifteen KC-135 aerial refueling tankers. Six KC-46 Pegasus tankers. Six E-3 Sentry airborne early warning aircraft, which is significant because only thirty one E-3s remain in the entire US Air Force inventory worldwide, meaning roughly a fifth of America’s operational AWACS fleet is parked on a single ramp in the Saudi desert. Two E-11A Battlefield Airborne Communications Nodes. C-130 Hercules transports. C-5 Galaxy heavy lifters. The backbone of Operation Epic Fury, catalogued from space and published on Weibo. This is the base that Iran targeted. AFP journalists in Riyadh reported explosions in the eastern part of the capital with thick smoke rising. The Saudi Foreign Ministry condemned Iranian attacks targeting Riyadh and the Eastern Province. Saudi air defenses intercepted the projectiles. But the image you are looking at was published days before the strike. Which means Iran had exactly the same intelligence picture that MizarVision gave the entire world for free. This is what the democratization of intelligence looks like. In 1991, only the United States could see individual aircraft on a ramp from space. In 2003, a handful of nations had that capability. In 2026, a Chinese startup publishes annotated satellite imagery of American force dispositions on social media, and Aviation Week runs the analysis before the first missile is fired. Defence Security Asia captured what this means: sub-meter resolution imagery distinguishing individual aircraft types fundamentally alters the secrecy calculus of pre-strike deployments. You cannot mass two hundred aircraft across half a dozen bases and keep it secret when commercial satellites photograph every ramp twice a day and AI models label every airframe before an analyst finishes their coffee. The age of hidden buildups is over. Every deployment is now observable, catalogued, and published in near real time by companies with no security clearance and no allegiance to anyone. The next war will not be planned in secret. It will be watched from orbit by everyone, in every language, simultaneously. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

@timzzo @KoketsoResane Sought, not sort :)

@KoketsoResane COBOL guys are actually sort after and they're earning big, I doubt this is going to change any time soon. Even the DOGE wizz kids were bamboozled with data they extracted from those backends.

This is actually insane. Had a lecturer back in the day who was one of the few people in South Africa who was sensei-level in COBOL. The lecturing was his side-hustle - an idea whispered to him by his wife to “give back”. Mans made so much money from maintaining a large retail bank’s backend COBOL systems that he would rock up at lectures slightly late and still wearing his biker boots. Those who know, know. Solid lecturer though, if you had a good foundation.

@AnEsotericTruth @CaptainArinze Think he probably knows that too...

@CaptainArinze I'm not going to go full monkey mode like Speed did, ever. I know this because I'm not retard*d and I understand it's not a real plane.

A Level D simulator used for type rating and recurrent training provides maximum realism. There is not much difference between a Level D simulator and the actual aircraft. The only difference is that if it crashes, you will just scream and shout as Speed did. And this is not even a Level D simulator.

@DrClaytonForre1 @BasilTheGreat It's not real. Composed to encourage hatred.

@OnlyNakedTruth I've had the same thought. My grandad was almost executed in WW2. His squad had been captured and the German soldiers didn't want to bring them in, I guess. Someone higher-ranking caught wind of it and put a stop to it just in time.

My father once told me this story. My great grandparents were just newly married and had to cross a seasonal river. They were on a bullock cart that got stuck in the middle of the stream as water began to rise. They were afraid for their lives but somehow made it safe. Sometimes I think about it. I wouldn’t have existed had they not managed to cross the river

@xdelmar59 @goldstar002 Yup. Doesn't exactly scream "medical professional"

@goldstar002 Ok dude...so your laughing at it really undermines what credibility your experience might lend you. Just sayin'

The notable thing is that the Great Pyramid remained as the world’s tallest building for almost 4000 years It was only surpassed by the Lincoln Cathedral in the 14th century It was such a colossal endeavor that subsequent pharaohs and dynasties never attempted its repetition, and ultimately opted for discrete rock cut tombs hidden from the eye The great pyramid probably consumed 2% of total Egyptian economic output yearly during its construction, and 1% of the total population (higher as a percentage of the workforce)

@solanaskeptic @iwsfutcmd @onlyfuns09 I also count the time I went to an Ethiopian restaurant as one of the best meals of my life!

@iwsfutcmd @onlyfuns09 If youre talking about the Oakland Ethopian restaurant I think youre talking about one of the greatest meals of my entire life. Amazing.

one of the worst things i heard during the heyday of cultural-appropriation-etc.-discourse was when i was telling a very, ahem, politically savvy acquaintance who lived in Oakland how much i love the Ethiopian food there, and they said they didn't go to Ethiopian restaurants because they were afraid they'd be an ignorant white person and do something potentially offensive there and i was like "what the actual fuck. the Ethiopians who run those restaurants *want your money*. that's why they decided to open a restaurant!"

@levelsio Looks like this guy went from 0 to 35km a week, though.

This is why I avoid running like the plague personally High odds you position your feet wrong and then running on asphalt makes it worse because it doesn't bounce like running on sand or grass would I can't count how many people I know who have knee injuries from running, it's not worth it for me I do cardio on a Concept2 bicycle in my gym and have never had any injury in my life

@dogismyquant @MarmotRespecter Hit the > on their bio, then look for this:

VPN account, so this is a 3rd worlder trying to make a living but anyways, mutual gratitude is really important for all long term relationships--you should never stop thanking your significant other or relatives or friends for literally every thing they do this is critical even in purely business relationships so why wouldnt it be with your spouse lol

@GuruAnaerobic The squat of the upper body.

I love dips, the exercise itself FEELS satisfying. Two sessions a week. First session is weighted - second is bodyweight only. Always supersetted with chin-ups (weighted/unweighted in the same manner). Note: As you age, the arms naturally lose less strength than the posterior chain and quads. Even if the reduction in strength was equal, a 15% drop in arm power doesn't have anywhere near the impact as a 15% drop in leg power.

@QuantumAlteredX Industrial revolution + imagination.

How did they know AI was going to take over the world a hundred years ago when supposedly none of it existed at all, nor did any of the tech leading up to it and it was all a pipe dream. Books going as far back as 1909. Tons of them from the 40s on. Bothers me. And if they knew, why go out of their way to make it happen? Are we repeating a cycle?

Everyone I know that’s worked for Elon has experienced this. The feedback is rough and expectations are exacting. But it creates a system that’s more and more functional over time (to the point of accomplishing semi-impossible things) Winners prioritize truth over feelings.
