After yesterday’s bloodbath I’m down just under ¥2,000,000. Sounds bad but all of my stocks bar two are up YTD. And I’ll be getting a nice amount of dividends in November and December.

I was teaching a 高校一年生 class about British music and forgot the name of the singer, Ed something, who wrote Shape of You. I described him as having red, messy hair.
I was surprised that no one knew. They were all just shouting 知らん,知らん

How on earth do you hack a fridge and is it possible to hack mine for the incoming Niigata winter?

What is it with Japan and the uk and about 60 more countries telling us to prepare 3 days of supplies?
Is it just scaremongering as people frequently fast for even longer?
It’s a strange number. 3 months I can understand but 3 days 🤷♂️

Mount Myoko has its first covering of snow of the year. Pretty much average timing but the forecast ain’t looking good for the skiers

I’ve been spending all my free time on genealogy recently.
I know nothing about my mum’s dad’s side as he died when my mum was 3.
Turns out my great grandfather was arrested for theft at 9.
His sentence was 5 days in prison and 5 years in a reformatory.
Then he died in WW1

Peak oil, Y2K, population bomb, the impending ice age, Covid, acid rain, mad cow disease, sars, bird flu, swine flu, the Mayan calander
Is the Russian plague the next to join the list of things that weren’t so bad or never happened? Or should we be really scared 👀

I unconsciously hit the algorithm jackpot.
Now I’m not being fed loads of mundane shite but rather lots of videos about the music and culture of the 80s

Newspaper advertisements from January 1996.
Never been to gaspanic but seems a bit pricey then

I was going through some old studying material and this popped up.
This is what they gave new ALTs living in and around Joetsu in 1994

Crazy financial things Japanese do
1. Work the same job for less money after turning 60
2. Accept ridiculously low part time jobs
3. Work overtime for free
Add your own

Japanese people are increasingly secretive over even small things.
Unless, that is, they are in an eikaiwa class where they blurt out everything as they don’t have the language skills to deflect.

Not heard this in years. Didn’t even know it had other verses.
