Don’t be fooled by my internet handle, I am not a white man. I buy stocks and align boxes in PowerPoint for a living.

記者「なぜ高市は支持率高いのか」
石破「国民がアホだから」
石破よ、さすがに記者が欲しすぎる100点満点の回答を出しすぎだろ。自重せねばならない。

My clients and I are on a two-week business trip through remote regions and islands in deep Japan, meeting suppliers and customers while conducting site inspections. I handle most of the conversation, and everyone has been remarkably friendly and welcoming.

Not buying the dip this Friday.
1. No-trade Friday.
2. Every stock worth buying has skyrocketed in the past few years; a 10% dip does not mean it is cheap.
3. I don’t fully understand the current situation, nor do I claim to.
4. More is yet to come.

None of the dumb racism observed on Japanese social media has escaped to offline world yet. This is a key indicator and what keeps the hopeful part alive in me, that those discriminatory opinions are only converged in the online cesspool, not yet overflowing into daily life.

Well, if anyone read history books, this episode aired before World War II. In the name of “national security,” killing foreigners, meaning Chinese and Koreans, is considered necessary. This shifts blame for an incompetent government.
【災害で弱った日本が攻撃される可能性】
これ、防災庁発足の日の会見としては、かなり踏み込んだ話だと思う。
細野豪志防災大臣
「東日本大震災の時、頭の片隅で“万が一、この時に日本有事が起こったら”と考えた」
「ただ、率直に言って、当時は日本に対する同情があったと思う」
「“弱ってる日本を攻撃するってさすがにできないね”という空気が世界の中にあった」
「あれからまもなく16年」
「世界は大きく変わった」
「そこ(日本が災害で弱っている所)は、むしろ突いてくる可能性が出てきてる」
「どこの国とは言わない」
「小泉防衛大臣とも話しており、非常に深刻な課題だと認識している」

A couple of years before COVID, I had a chance to have a discussion with a couple of elected Japanese politicians about Taiwan. The political vibe was entirely different back then. But they do support the idea that Japan should intervene if a hot war breaks out.

The next question I asked was “How many SDF and civilian casualties will be acceptable for you to support Taiwan?”
None of them have ever put any thought into this. They are confused about why there is any possibility that casualties will happen.

Trying this feature today. Notion AI has improved a lot while adding the credit system, forcing users to purchase tokens at a premium. Not sure about coding; as a text-based consultant, I have never used up Notion credits added with my ChatGPT subscription.
Your Notion Agent can now use a computer to create and edit files.
Go from a conversation to a finished Excel spreadsheet, Word doc, PowerPoint deck, or PDF. All without leaving Notion.

Similar experience 10 years ago. They are intentionally finding arbitrary reasons to reject you from opening a new account. Still a great bank. But I know I am not worth being their customer😂 a shareholder will do.
2年半日本に住んでて、就職もしてる知り合い🇰🇷が今日池袋のUFJ銀行に口座開設に行ったら「日本語わかりますか？」って聞かれて、わかりますって言ったら「この文章を読んでください」って言われたから普通に目で読んでたら、「聞こえるように声に出して日本語で読んでください。」って言われたって…

Without a court order is wild. Most Japanese won’t understand this because it is their cultural imprint that people need to follow orders from the authorities, no questions asked. This is not how modern society works anymore.

I have been buying SBG for a while now. Because I missed a couple of windows to cash my profits and the price has been dropping like a fly, I am now in deep minus with shit loads of stocks on hand…

The client is extremely sensitive about travel experiences. They always want us to book the hotel as cheaply as possible.
So, we spent the day booking 10+ different hotels so that we can have the lowest possible rate during the whole trip, saving them about 200k JPY. 1/4

The billable day rate we are going to add to their bill is about 700k JPY/day, and we will bill them for "travel planning".
The person in charge won't mind because it is his/her "good work" that saved the company 200k. The extra human labor is put into a larger pool. 2/4
