I didn't manage to catch him Live today but the vibe of walking in Tokyo.

I could watch a #NinjaMonkey/#HappyGaijin steam any time live or on repeat.

If one seat free, when flying Economy, is poor man's Business Class, and a row is poor man's First, then having almost an entire Economy cabin must be poor man's Charter plane 🤣

Yeah me too I'll pick an openable windows over High speed any day.

Some of the best videos and photos were on a tiny line in Japan that still had them.

I am far from a Coffee or Caffeine snob so whether it's instant with UHT Milk or even Barley Tea I will drink it especially if it comes with my hotel stay.

Poll from Project Untethered - YouTube

What's your approach to travel coffee/caffeine needs?

It is relatively easy to get Mew in Gen One. In all three of the games, you can get it with the trainer glitch, assuming you have the right Pokémon in your party, and you can even have a Mew before Brock.

Someone should throw these Dual typings into a ROM hack and have Mikey play it. I think it'd be hilarious.

I think you can enjoy Pokemon Yellow if you play it for the glitches. Play around with MissingNo and Mew glitches and have it require a little more effort than B/R.

It does make it easy to farm comments, you just slightly mispronounce them and suddenly you get a decent amount of free "Um Actually" posts.

Instead of tipping say thank you by leaving a highly rated well-written review on your favourite travel app, sharing links across social media, or simply by coming back again and being a repeat customer; these help businesses a lot more than tips.

Don't tip in NZ or Taiwan either; you make life worse for locals. Do a Google search asking "Do I tip" BEFORE you leave.

Stop TIPPING in Japan, Really!

That and Hostess clubs, where you only pay for a woman to talk to you, are the weirdest things in Japan; they even invented Escorts, i.e. prostitutes without sex.

For being a place where Sex work is less taboo and partners get a pass, they seem to have a lot of places that are Sex work adjacent.

The weird part isn't the soap; the weird part is that it's not a brothel. I guess it's kinda like the champagne room in Strip Club.

Designing zoning laws so it's hard to convert Office blocks into Apartments or mixed use residential was almost as stupid as preventing residential around stations.

Does anyone know if Ceramics get lumped in with the Stoneage era? Also Do Ceramics come before Metals come first?

I always imagine developing Metal because you already have the ceramic furnace.

Honorable Mention Japanese Curry

1. Sushi, it really is something else when experienced in Japan

Cliffdog01 @cliffdog01.bsky.social · 7d

5. Gyudon is amazing, and most are 24/7. Often time feels more Japanese than the hotel breakfast buffets.

4. Okonomiyaki

3. Soba noodles (I like Soba more than Ramen)

2. Yakiniku, yes this is a cheaty way to put all meat in a single spot.

My list of food to try in Japan would be ...

6. Natto with rice, not everything you should try should be "good"; though I do like it, especially when combined with Mapo Tofu and rice.

Ranking must try foods in Japan 🇯🇵

A Museum I really like the look of on G.maps is a preservation railway Kyushutetsudo-Kinenkan Station. It's in Minatomachi near Kitakyushu and goes up to the northern point to the island of Kyushu

I hope this was successful enough for Alex to repeat with other rare aircraft on Charter like DC-3, 4's, floatplanes, or Soviet era planes.

I think lawmakers in the US should not be paid during shutdowns and receive a fine ideally $1000/dy.

To those who aren't Military quit; it seems to solve a lot of problems around pay. If you work as an air traffic controller can anywhere.

Do federal employees work during a shutdown?

I mean there is a machine gun co-driver position in a Sherman Tank so you can definitely pickup a girlfriend in a tank.

It's certainly an interesting date but anyone dating a person with a Tank knows what they signed up for.

In all seriousness, I'm waiting for the next Generation of the Steam Deck or any other company to release a big box noobie version of Linux.

Until then I've just been using an Android Smartphone and SmartTV. Honestly the one complaint is Word Processors.
