  1. Here is an incredible eulogy for Anthony Bourdain ( )written by David Simon aka I met the man once and I had no idea who he was. He was polite, curious, and funny. He followed me on twitter, one of of 753 I considered that an honor.

  2. I'd love to wish Happy to more people but I'm clocking out for the night. Today was a long rewarding haul--sometimes, things come to fruition. It's nice when they day. お休み

  3. Today I found common ground with my junior high-school locker partner who is a vocal Trump supporter. We can agree on some key issues 😉

  4. The geometry, design and lighting of this apartment complex in Minato ward I find to be mesmerizing. Otherworldly.

  5. The highlight of my day as a freelance journalist: showing up late for a social function because of work, helping clean up, and carrying home all the leftovers. Hello half-eaten block of Comte cheese & 10 dark chocolate bars! Viva la France!

  6. Fuck “thoughts and prayers”. I’d rather have gun control laws and body armor. Contrary to popular belief, Japan has guns—It’s just very difficult to get licensed to use them. They’re 122 million people here. We had less than 10 gun deaths last year.

  8. I don't understand the esoterica of soccer. However even though Japan lost tonight, they still advance in the World Cup. Banzai!

  9. There's a special place in hell for clickbait article writers, where they are forever tormented by signs that say: "Would u believe there's an EXIT here?" "This is the cure for damnation that God doesn't want u to know about." Each sign leads to a metaphysical ZERGNET & agony

  10. The Japanese reads, “I’m not a newspaper reporter.” The French reads, “I’m not a journalist.” There is a difference. But thanks to this book, I can now almost say in French: “Je suis journaliste”. But since I’m learning from a Japanese textbook, my Frenc…

  11. Here’s a question about definitions. What is the difference between a newspaper reporter and a journalist? Are they always the same? Should I make a Venn diagram?

    Gene, I’m going to fix this problem. Can I perhaps interest you in my ICO for Waluigi coin (WLC), bult on the latest DonkeyKong nano-blockchain technology? It will do for Waluigi what bitcoin did for currency:liberate it. Ads on Facecook coming soon

    That is a Green-tea old fashioned.

  14. Tomorrow it’s Japan versus Poland. Gotta say, I’m rooting for Japan 🇯🇵 on that one. And not only so I can sell all this stuff off on Mercari. 😎⚽️

  15. Yay! Korea 🇰🇷--we won! 🥂Let’s all celebrate by drinking makkori aka “milky death”. ⚽️ Then again, maybe not. I’ve been rooting for Korea ever since they just won right now. A huge fan for several minutes

  16. Green-tea Old Fashioned. Yamazaki whiskey 🥃 + 🍵 matcha + kuromitsu. Vanilla bitters. A darn fine cocktail. Gold leaf on the ice cube is the finishing touch.

  17. We'd like to provide more investigative journalism and insightful writing at Japan Subculture Research Center. And feed our intern(s) If you ♥️ Japan or have a dark sense of humor: Smash the paypal button Donations and RTs welcome.

  18. JSRC ( ) now is a more inclusive on-line (non-profit) magazine covering the underworld, popular culture, social issues in Japan. And sometimes, we just post for our own amusement & yours Try the Matcha Better F*ck, our contribution to mixology

  19. I got a lovely message from reminding me that what we do as a community matters. I agree. How as a community can we make FB stop selling our information to nazis and fascists, stop censoring nudity but not racism, share the wealth with content providers and us?♥️
