Maybe an opinion of somebody who doesn’t live in an almost homogeneous country with their own share of well-known racism issues.

I wouldn’t cite Japanese opinions on racism (especially some random anecdotal ones) as valid opinions on racism.

I thought you meant the other cosplay meltdown of the week. It’s hard to keep track.

Sub it with good rum? Now that the embargo’s gone, an old Havana Club?

This is late 1990s Livejournal brought to video. Fascinating.

And in a rather unfortunate irony, it was the destruction of WWI that made them less eager to fight in WWII - thus furthering the stereotype...

I think you got that stereotype from us Brits, anyway. The problem with the French is that they started losing badly when the modern propaganda tools and proper national stereotyping first appeared - around Napoleonic Wars. Then came the Franco-Prussian war, and Blitzkrieg... They faired better in WWI, but even then…

If you’re undecided, it’s probably safe to vote Bernie. If he wins, the margin of delegates will be too small to change his overall situation. If he loses, your vote didn’t matter anyway.

They’ll always be Puyopuyo clones to me.

“Game over, man. Game over!”

Most retired presidents fund libraries. Obama will fund a kindergarten.

Well somebody has to stay to endorse Malia ‘32

OneDrive is a mess. I have it free with Office, and I still don’t use it. Just between two laptops, on the same wi-fi, I had constant syncing errors daily. Never seen anything like this with either of the competitors.

Ladybaby is nothing but a minstrel show for the Japanese. I know where novelties like these are coming from, and I loathe them with a deep passion, especially when they’re getting confused with proper bands like Babymetal just because of superficial image similarities.

Not really. They’ve been doing this for decades. Them having nukes doesn’t really change anything - a ballistic missile is easier to stop than artillery barrage.

Fox News is not a country.

Yes, well, that will be why neither China nor Russia ever attacked US directly. Doesn’t take a strategic genius to figure this out.

Some of the greatest works of art were created to pursue an (usually religious) agenda, so no.

Oh for fuck’s sake. I can’t hear about this shit anymore. Starve them of spotlight, this is all these whinybabies want.

Jet-lag, definitely. Western bands look even worse when they perform on Japanese TV.
