“On Readers Who Read Manga for Free” This time, I would like to talk about something a little sensitive—no, in fact, something extremely sensitive. That is the issue of readers around the world who consume pirated manga(manga piracy). There are many ways we can think about the problem of “reading manga through piracy overseas.” 1. So is reading manga piracy illegal? Surprisingly, in many cases, it is not(!). But is that really so surprising? Let’s think about what “illegal” actually means for a moment. For something to be considered illegal, it must violate the laws of the country where the person resides. (Although the reality is more complex, let’s simplify it for now.) For reading pirated foreign manga to be illegal, that country must be a member of an international copyright system based on the TRIPS Agreement. After joining such an international copyright system, the country must also revise its domestic copyright laws to align with global standards. Only then does reading pirated foreign works—such as manga and webtoons from Japan and Korea—become illegal in that country. If a country has not done so, then for its citizens, reading pirated versions of foreign manga is not “illegal.” In other words, it is not a criminal act. South Korea joined the international copyright system in 1988. Before that, copying and distributing Japanese manga without authorization was legally permissible. China joined in 2004. Japan, meanwhile, joined as early as 1899. Yes—1899. Even today, there are many countries in the world that are not part of the international copyright system. For citizens of those countries, reading pirated Japanese manga is not a crime. Let me repeat this clearly: it is not illegal. And from the perspective of a creator, this is a very painful truth. However, there is no universal obligation for every country in the world to join the international copyright system. That is a matter of national sovereignty and choice. But still, we may have a better solution. At least, I have been thinking about a possible approach to this issue. For now, I will continue developing this idea a little further. To be contined.

Hard truth… I can speak freely because I’m 65 years old and my pocketful of fucks is seriously depleted. Working as a paralegal at various studios in LA for thirty years…I had the opportunity to observe studio executives closely. They’re generally a slippery and clueless bunch who shouldn’t be allowed near anything remotely creative…but the new regime at Paramount is straight up evil. I assure you. These soulless bastards have nothing but contempt for a show about grace and redemption and the struggle against fascism. ATLA is a mystery to them. They. Do. Not. Value. The. Franchise.

The world spent 30 years calling Japan 'behind.' Still uses cash. Still uses fax. Still has tiny shops run by one old couple. Then the world got 'ahead' — and ended up lonely, rushed, and scrolling at 2 AM. Now the same people are flying to Japan just to feel something they can't name. A meal made by hand. A street that's quiet. A stranger who's kind for no reason. Turns out Japan wasn't behind. It just refused to trade away the things that actually make a life.

I don’t think you are understanding when Europeans say America has no diverse culture they are implying Native Americans don’t count as Americans. We still exist, there’s 564 tribes in America all with our own unique culture & our own imprint on those states big cities.

@Unconventi33449 nobody said they were. but the “thousands of years of american history” comes from native americans. not white colonisers who decimated them & their lands. that history is native american, dont think u should talk about that unless you ARE native american. which that he isnt.

@green_layer @ItsPRaNiTX @unusual_whales Depends on where you live/work. A lot of people DoorDash or use Uber Eats which makes it really easy to get a $28 lunch with fees and tip. The country would be healthier and save money if people knew how to cook/food prep.

@1UnAverageJoe @ItsPRaNiTX @unusual_whales How does a lunch get to be 28 dollars? At the end of the day, who benefits from that? The problem isn't the salary, it's the prices. People should learn to save money, but having to cut out on sandwiches?

JUST IN: 🇺🇸🇮🇱 Axios sources say President Trump was "pissed" during call with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and told him off: "You're f*cking crazy. You'd be in prison if it weren't for me. I'm saving your ass. Everybody hates you now. Everybody hates Israel because of this." "What the f*ck are you doing?"

@thollandrchives @empiremagazine This is what we wanted to see Tom Holland do as Peter. It's obvious he's a really good actor, but the writing for Spiderman has been not do generous for Tom

Tom Holland tells @empiremagazine that he didn’t want to be one more person to abandon Peter Parker in his sad state and that part of what drew him back to the role was the chance of having more creative control. “This is the first time in my tenure as Spider-Man that I was kind of welcomed into the writers’ room.”

@ItsPRaNiTX @unusual_whales He's using an example to simply say live within your means and realize not all salaries can afford certain things. Spending $28 a day on lunch for a 5 day work week is over $500 a month so yeah, it is the lunch versus rent only increasing $800 for the year.

@unusual_whales What's actually getting automated is the predictable 80% of those jobs, not the judgment part. That analyst who just runs the model gets laid off, but the one who knows which model to run and when it's lying doesn't. Skill never stopped being important, it just moved.

@FrosteKing @kristanishere Like Hakari. Yes, he has virtually infinite CE but what use is it if he doesn't reinforce his CT with that? He's a clear example of potential going unrealized because he doesn't need/want to perfect his CT

@kristanishere It's so unfortunate that Gege wrote a way to show how powerful a sorcerer is without mass damage and people are too illiterate to see it. Sukuna could cut a tree and, depending on how he did it, would display unparalleled mastery of sorcery. Scale isn't the end all be all.
