初心者スレッドで愚痴ってたものです。管理人さんLINEでオプチャ作ってください笑 私も作りましたが、訴求力がないと思うので 本当に良いことを伝えても消されてしまう世の中なんだなと 私のプロフィールを見ていただければわかると思いますが、かなり勢いよくバズってても消されるんですよね
1時間で10,000表示、コメント60以上の議論が成立していた投稿が、ある日本系サブで削除された。さらに7日BAN + 警告まで来た。議論で勝てない側が黙らせる側に近いと、勝った側が消える。Xのアルゴリズム検閲と本質的に何が違うのか分からなくなった。SNSは「自由な議論の場」と言われるけど、実態はプラットフォーム個別の権力構造に支配されている。みんなは似たような体験ある?
Delusional is a lazy substitute for an actual counter‑argument. RAND Corporation estimated Japan loses ~2.9% of GDP to sleep deprivation — worst among countries studied. Calling the cops doesn't solve it either; bōsōzoku bend their plates so they can't be ID'd. Hypothesis first, develop from there — that's how discussion works.
Glad to hear that — not many people seem to agree, so your comment means a lot. Whether or not I live in the countryside, even people who work in Tokyo but live in the suburbs deal with bōsōzoku. The reason I compared them to bicycles is that most cyclists are just regular people commuting or running errands. Bōsōzoku, on the other hand, are doing it purely for their own self‑satisfaction — making noise nobody asked for. And honestly, it's not just bōsōzoku — modified mufflers, unnecessarily loud exhausts, and revving engines for no reason shouldn't be tolerated in the first place.
Sleep deprivation definitely happens. Maybe the GDP framing was an exaggeration, but the next morning's performance is absolutely going to drop. The core of my question is: why crack down hard on bicycles — which people genuinely need for daily life, school runs, picking up kids — while ignoring bōsōzoku, who literally nobody benefits from? I'd say 99% of people would be happy if they disappeared. And about calling the police — these guys bend their license plates so they can't be identified, so reporting them doesn't actually lead to arrests.
最近思うことがある。日本で仕事ができて、家族も持ち、立派な生活をしているにもかかわらず、
未来につながる社会問題や政治問題に関しては、
目を背け、口を閉ざす。
彼らはオトナではない。
天才少年のようだと。
社会問題などは関係ないというオトナじゃないってこと。

What worries me most is that they renamed "emergency clause" to "clause for maintaining Diet functions." And honestly, from what I see around me, over 80% of people don't even know this clause exists. Most probably only know about Article 9. If this is genuinely important, they should be running ads and clearly explaining what they're trying to buy with this. To me it just looks like they're hiding it.
people keep bringing up "germany amended their constitution 60+ times" like it's a gotcha, but they always leave out the eternity clause — article 79(3) literally makes it impossible to touch human dignity, democracy, or the federal structure. germany amends around those locked principles, not through them. japan's pro-amendment crowd never talks about building that kind of guardrail, which is the actual issue.
Japanese people aren't usually good with spicy food, so I think the spiciness has become almost addictive — like an attraction or thrill ride. There's a super spicy ramen shop in Nagoya called Ajisen that always has long lines too. Personally, I don't recommend it though, since it can affect your esophagus, stomach, and intestines.
Japanese people love ramen and call it their "soul food," but almost no ramen shops use domestically grown wheat. The chashu pork is foreign meat too. 80% of soba buckwheat is imported. The soybeans in tofu and natto are mostly foreign. Recently, even gyudon chains started using imported rice — and consumers don't seem to care at all.For those of you who love Japan and live here — what do you think about this? Does it bother you, or is it just the reality of a globalized food system?
Japanese rank Annoying Behaviors by Foreign Tourists on Trains: 1. Noisy conversations and boisterous behavior (69.1%), 2. How luggage is carried and placed (41.9%) 3. Posture while seated (26.2%) 4. Strong scents (perfume, fabric softener, etc.) (24.8%) 5. Loitering near doors (24.1%)
I'm Japanese, but while Japanese people do follow manners, a lot of them rush to grab seats first, and once they sit down they have this attitude like "I'm not giving this up to anyone." I always find it embarrassing to watch.
Does hiring really require some special skill? Can interviews actually assess someone's ability?I looked into it, and turns out universities and well-known research institutions have concluded that interviewer judgment adds no value.I suck at interviews.Especially the question "Why did you choose our company out of all the others?" — that's just a template question to me.
