So my resolve today is NOT TOO OPEN ANY ONLINE ADS just for a day.

I started darning my shirts and sweaters this year, so my vision is to make mending clothes fashionable and cool!

「日本のいちばん長い日」の半藤一利さん。
記事本文より

①国民的熱狂をつくってはいけない。そのためにも言論の自由・出版の自由こそが生命である。
 ②最大の危機において日本人は抽象的な観念論を好む。それを警戒せよ。すなわちリアリズムに徹せよ。
 ③日本型タコツボにおけるエリート小集団主義(例・旧日本陸軍参謀本部作戦課)の弊害を常に心せよ。
 ④国際的常識の欠如に絶えず気を配るべし。
 ⑤すぐに成果を求める短兵急な発想をやめよ。ロングレンジのものの見方を心がけよ。

This is a little piece I wrote explaining what I was doing career wise over the last 3 years. Please excuse my poor writing. Although I love writing in Japanese I never wrote anything longer than 140 letters in English (lol).

So everyone in this small interpretation industry was gravely affected by the Pandemic. I am no exception.

Really strange that it's still raining in May in the bay area.
I hope this doesn't worsen the flood in areas affected by the melting snow....

I don't know what to think about more people leaving Fox with Carlson to watch News Max. The divide was already clear, but the gap getting wider...

I am curious as to what made Thomas to be as conservative (or to be a part of wealthy establishment) as he is...

Whatever the case, the US court and justice system has become one of the biggest disappointments for me since I came here.
