I see Chinese people in Tokyo wearing them all the time. Even when not listening to music and just talking to friends. It really is like some kind of fashion accessory.

It's also worth noting that, while things like overexercising will quickly set off alarm bells to us in various ways that stop it from feeling good, items that were scarce or not about in abundance long ago like sugar, fats and tabbaco

Sorry, I might be missing something but can you point out where the author is saying they're against this or that its a "concern"? They say it can be disruptive - and explicitly say to whom it is disruptive ("people w

Well now you're really just projecting. The author's point, made in your quoted paragraph and then again in the following two, was clearly that people who are in difficult situations or neuroatypical may be disruptive to "the

A less brain melting way to imagine the "expansion without edge" thing is the classic balloon system. Imagine your entire universe exists across the plain of a semi-deflated balloon and then someone slowly begins to blow it up. Th

I've already taken the most effective security measures against this kind of attack, which is to never answer the phone.

Unless I'm calculating wrong these apartments all sounds huge. Not trying to compete but I live in an apartment in Tokyo with less than 10 square meters and a futon in the loft - I'd happily trade for any of those.

To be fair, if you go in all gun-ho for a huge bite of real wasabi like you would avacado you're going to get a whole load more than most people would mix in with their sushi.

Stores are often intentionally designed in a way specifically to stop direct access to the kinda of thing you'll just "drop in" to pick up. They want you walking past and seeing all the other things you could buy.

I think you're thinking too much about numbers. Outside of its legal definition, an ongoing conflict between two groups can be considered a war. I think its rather about duration (as opposed to one instance of fighting, which would jus

Serious question but is there a reason more isn't invested in public transport? I've only ever lived in the UK before Tokyo but America is rich enough I don't see why they can't do what those places do.

I think they're on the money with the dedicating a few hours a day to study/productivity outside of work - I just can't imagine doing it for the same thing I'm already getting paid for anymore. If they're really int
