Briefly. Most of it is osmosis from the wife.
Discussion
The culture here is inspiring. I love this country and I love their personal hygiene focus
Visiting Japan makes you realize America is the land of poopy buttholes
And messy/inconsiderate people
And shitty food
And weak ass 7-11’s
Etc.
Raw assholes everywhere.
True, so raw AND so poopy. It’s a miracle us Muricans don’t have a shit ton of butthole infections
I frequently argue this with people. If you see shit ANYWHERE on your body, in your house, on your shoes, you DO NOT USE PAPER TO CLEAN IT UP. There’s always water and a disinfectant. But here we are living like puritans
What are the rates of colon cancer in the US vs Japan?
Not sure but The Science™️ i just quickly found claims it has been increasing in Japan while US has been in a slight age-adjusted decline since the mid 80’s
Wouldn’t that indicate we are eating more poisoned foods that are sitting in our colons?? Surely a strawberry chilling in your sphincter isn’t going to give you higher rates of cancer
(I don’t shove strawberries in my butt)
Absolutely. Even the most mundane details here are much higher effort than what I see in most places in the states.
Quality mindset
That being said, the Japanese have very little land, beef, individual autonomy, privacy, freedom, gun rights, entreprenuerial spirit, and ability to save for retirement.
Also: technology in Japan is like the future from the POV of the 80s. They literally skipped the desktop internet. Fax is still a thing.
Americans should be grateful for the unique gifts that they have.
Yes without a doubt. I wouldn't trade my situation for anything, but I would also love to see Japan liberated from the banking cartel. That would fix some of those issues for them.
So far I'm not seeing any sign of Bitcoin adoption here, but once the conference starts I might learn some things.
When I was there i saw bitcoin flash on one of those huge electronic billboards in shinjuku i think. But then also bcash and meth 😔
But bitcoin was most prominent 😄
The scammers will be glowing this round.
I can't wait for the FTX documentary to come out. If it's done right it will orange pill a ton of people.
Aye. The Princes of the Yen is holding them back.
We integrated alot into my household. Wet towelettes while eating. Bidets in the bathrooms. No shoes inside (slippers only). Frequent baths (with minerals/oils).
That sounds incredible. I started the no shoes indoors practice years ago and I genuinely can't imagine how people live any other way this point.
Currently saving up for a nice bidet that plays a song and opens automatically when I open the door to the toilet. Royalty experience. 👑
