Hey, y’all! Just another random, loudmouthed, opinionated, Southern-fried nerdy American living abroad.

I’m moving off kbin to lemmy, so I won’t be posting from here (unless kbin social gets it together).

It also might have been because electricity costs recently shot up between 24-46% all around Japan a month or so ago. Tokyo prices went up about 25% and it was 46% in Hokkaido. Just in time for summer. They might’ve been trying to save money by having it off at night.

When BioWare announced they had made each planet on Andromeda bigger than the largest area in Inquisition, my stomach sank, because Inquisition had already been pushing it with the bloat.

I watched a review by this YouTuber who hated Andromeda but decided to give it another shot on a whim, only this time to just do the main and loyalty missions, and he said it was like night and day and the game actually was good and the story felt better and like there were actual stakes. All that more for the sake of more hurt the game more than a lot of folks realize.

Case in point, just compare Mass Effect 1 (about 30 hours) to Mass Effect Andromeda (well over 100 hours).

25-30 is perfect to me. I’m currently playing Mass Effect, and I’m at about 30 hours and on the last mission. Just long enough to get in the world but not so long that it wears out its welcome.

I'd much rather have a focused game than one full of collectathon bloat with more for the sake of more.

...it's still Japan and they have a long way to go when it comes to gender equality, I'm afraid. I mean, case in point: Japanese city apologizes after advising pregnant women to cook, clean and give husbands massages.

...yeah, THAT'S not really insulting at all.

stopthatgirl7 OP , to worldnews in Osaka Expo asks for overtime cap exemption as time pressure mounts
@stopthatgirl7@kbin.social avatar

Now imagine that thing everywhere, including on multiple poster-sized digital ads in the subway stations and even on the fricking manhole covers.

@stopthatgirl7@kbin.social avatar

It's just the next world expo. I'm not sure why a Japanese newspaper would explain what the Osaka Expo is, when it's pretty much impossible over here to not see mentions of it fricking everywhere, or that horror show of a mascot?

...sorry, I live in Osaka and I've seen far too much of Myaku-Myaku on ads EVERYWHERE. It's even on the damn manhole covers.

@stopthatgirl7@kbin.social avatar

This expo is a mess no one in Osaka is all that interested in and also, the mascot for it, Myaku-Myaku, is a Lovecraftian horror.

First malaria, now leprosy. What is going on here?!

It’s wild to me how it’s always the folks who have never actually posted an actual article themselves who are the first to comment “is this news?” Like. Post something you consider newsworthy instead.

Yeah, there’s sadly a lot of toxicity so far over here. I think a big part of it is there’s not so much active mod management. You’ve got to stop the toxicity when it starts out it becomes the culture. I’m kinda sad to see kbin and lemmy becoming just like Reddit in that respect.

But half the South is Black. By just referring to “Southern culture,” you’re both completely erasing half the population in many places and reinforcing the idea of white as default. Call it what it is: evangelical white Southern culture. Don’t let the real identity of the folks being racist dipshits get erased.
