You can see many of them go to the middle and eastern side of kyushu. I just lived in Aso for a few years and can't recommend it enough. The takachiho/gokase/beppu areas are jaw-dropping.

Reminds me of soda. Why the hell liquid poison is allowed to exist turns my stomach. You could fill libraries with data linking it to a myriad illnesses and causes of death. Yet they are even allowed to juke it with caffeine for no other re

The climate change alarms have been sounding for decades and yet vehicles keep getting bigger. Even in formerly "doing it right" countries like Japan. Turns out humans will always choose vanity and status symbols over facts. Oh we

Kettlebells are the perfect middle ground for me. Dynamic movements, easy to incorporate strength gains, very little floor space required and one kettlebell is enough to get started. After a few years of kettlebells I feel like my lower bac

Huh? I'm running kde plasma on wayland and flameshot runs like a dream come true. I hit the flameshot icon in the tray, it automatically selects the whole screen to save, or if I click it starts cropping wherever I move the mouse. It&#

It really was magical. It felt like the wild west. I used to buy a copy of 2600 and sit in a cafe reading it just feeling like I could do anything or go anywhere, which I guess I could to a degree back in those days. I left my system admini

It is also the only way to get my city's public transport system to reply to queries about why a bus is extremely late, when/if it is coming. I always get a nice polite reply because it's publicly available. If I call I get s

Feels like every day I run into another reason to never stop taking notes by hand in good old cursive.

My mom just lost about fifteen thousand dollars. The sad part is, she knew full well, for years now, if you hear a certain accent from a cold call, just hang up the phone. She received calls almost every day since she still needs a landline

I was on oxycodone for about 6 weeks for a growth inside my knee. After it was removed, I had to wean off the drugs. Wasn't too bad, took less than a week. Soon after I thought I'd try to kick the caffeine habit. Went from 4 cups,

It's just "one of those things about Japan" that, since citizens don't bring it up, foreigners aren't really allowed to either. I'm just a little salty because I just went to two baseball games in kumamoto wher

I'd love to to try a motorcycle that doesn't disturb people for at least a half kilometre around me while I wear comfy ear protection, sure. Unfortunately that isn't anywhere close to the norm in Japan
