@Karai_Dan yeah but you could also eat like 定食 and soba everyday and feel healthy
English
@samcraigjohnson He’s in the USA. I’d reckon if anyone visits the USA as a tourist and eats out every meal they could come to the same conclusion.
English
it's extremely easy to eat healthy here, it's called cooking at home
dan ⚡️@mynamebedan
i’m gonna be real here: the whole “japanese people are so healthy because of their food” is nonsense. it’s legitimately hard to eat a high protein, clean meal here. everything is junk. they just walk a gajillion miles a day so it all evens out

@kjnkjp @Divergent7651 I had a dream last night I was stealing gold bars so I feel really positive about the future

@Divergent7651 cash; escaping into the mountains and stocking up on gas canisters and canned food

fellas is it leftist to enjoy a fun penis festival without getting a massive erection like justin here
Justin Aukema@aukemajk
This blanket respect 4 “culture” is a product of moral relativism & neo-Left thought that infects the political right 2. Some cultural practices R better than others; some deserve to be kept & others don’t. If U can’t accept that, U secretly hate civilization & R a closet Leftist

@CacheThatCheque anytime I go home to the US I remember why I love japan
English
I try not to blackpill too much about Japan because as bad as it is sometimes, it’s still better than many other places
Takezo@bonowskiz
@Chris_arnade Just got back too. I’ve been going back and forth between Japan periodically since the early 90s. This time it was almost radicalizing. It’s never been more depressing to get off the plane in America.

"gated". the skill you could learn yourself online anytime.
Rohan Paul@rohanpaul_ai
Software used to be gated by roughly 20 million professional developers up until last year. Good ideas still needed engineers, co-founders, time, and months of app work. Now, anyone can build. ~ Wabi CEO Eugenia Kuyda

@rhiannon_io probably easiest is to just go to an izakaya and sit at the counter. but for actual classes coto academy is good.
English
Landed in Tokyo yesterday. 🇯🇵
How does one find like… irl Japanese classes / practice groups for English speakers?
Not something too formal… just opportunities to practice.
Idk exactly what I’m asking for. 😂

@allie__voss the recipes in the US are like buy 15 herbs and spend 7 hours on a meal. recipes in asia are like throw these 3 sauces with some meat and vegetables and it will be done in 4 minutes.
English
I don't even believe people who say they can't cook
Maybe you don't enjoy it, maybe you can't do anything high-level, or maybe you've just never tried, but you CAN follow basic directions if you're literate
Laura Hudson 🇨🇦@latterdaylaura
I’m so over the “I’m such a quirky girl, I can’t cook” trope. Like it should be genuinely concerning if a functional adult cannot make themself a basic meal. “Lol I can’t boil an egg” actually scares me.

@katakana_kurisu can't imagine what the strategy would even be. LLMs aren't good at math (or telling the truth)
English
@samcraigjohnson People eventually going to get wrecked using something like that.

How can this be the first AI hedge fund when I just saw a different 18y old with no experience launch an AI hedge fund yesterday

I don't like this at all
"sparkling water" is marketing speak
"club soda" is too, but it's far enough back and at least refers to a real place

@katakana_kurisu "US is so great b/c a wealthy person can always bail me out" lol
English
@samcraigjohnson Even funnier is the quote “why can’t I break the law if I’m rich?”
English
"wow japan is so safe!"
"why are you arresting me for breaking the law!?!"
Leah Goodridge@leahfrombklyn
Excuse me??? I had no idea that Adderall is illegal in Japan (yes even if prescribed from another country) and that if you have it, they will promptly arrest you.
