While I was riding my shitty old mamachari home from the river this evening, I had to stop on a narrow residential street near my house to let a crimson Lamborghini Revuelto pass coming the other way.
All kinds of odd juxtaposition there.

We need journalists to help, too. Write articles about how terrible it is, and how bad it makes it look the company. Name and shame the people in the credits responsible for the travesty. Contact the company for comment.
Be the loudest, most annoying voice possible.

This company absolutely hates their customers and the product they sell. Nobody should give them money. They should not be in business.

I well understand that different cultures have different ways of conveying and processing information, but there are limits, right? Humans have human brains.
So, when I see a Japanese presentation with slides covered in 45 text boxes with text in fonts as small as 8 point, I can say: THIS IS BAD.

For the [ast few years I've been editing the short fiction for Star Ship Sofa, a venerable SF (not F/H) podcast. It's a small joint, and I've turned it primarily into a reprint market as we can afford only $50 per story.
I've also turned it into a reprint market because writers need money fast. 🧵

My wife kept recommending me the movie Black House/黒い家. It's a serial killer/psychopath movie about insurance fraud(?) from a novel by Kishi Yusuke, none of which really "hits" with me. But it's on U-next so I started it and HOLY SHIT. It's bonkers.

Translator problems: Author makes up an entire prefecture with its own private railway and makes a map of fifteen stations *that are never mentioned in the text.* Do those names actually have readings, or are they just mixed and matched kanji? Does it matter?
