but feel fine at 0F
Granted electricity is more complicated than a coat, but you absolutely need tools to feel “fine” at either temperature. Humans don’t survive at 0F without fire or clothes, whereas 100F just needs a water supply. In the modern world this translates to a shelter with heating vs AC

Yeah I had a similar experience buying one at a festival and was not a huge fan, which surprised me as I like chicken skin in general. But the way they do it on the skewers is just not appetizing.
Had to look up denkushi, as I’d just seen them called kawa, and seems like it’s the term one izakaya chain called shinjidai uses. Apparently there’s only like 5 of them in Tohoku so I’ve never been to one.

What’s that character from? I vaguely remember him from a viral video that went around, kinda like the you are a pirate, but from a kid’s show in a foreign language

- Comment on Denominator, go Mercator 2 days ago:
It works for any shipping lines
The Mercator projection was designed for use in marine navigation because of its unique property of representing any course of constant bearing as a straight segment. Such a course, known as a rhumb (alternately called a rhumb line or loxodrome) is preferred in marine navigation because ships can sail in a constant compass direction.

Does this mean the original tomato varieties from South America aren’t being grown anymore? Is this one of those things like they weren’t very good, like watermelons 200 years ago being mostly green inside with only a little red and then they were gradually bred for more fruit content?

Yeah, along with words changing meaning over time. I’m sure most people in Japan familiar who are online are aware of the newer meaning.
It’s like that old batman comic where the joker is mad about the newspaper writing about his boner

as someone who’s Dutch, the way this all works in English is so absurd
Yeah but don’t you say Japan instead of Nihon/Nippon? Every language does this to a certain extent.

Just remember that “no” is the particle that indicates possession, so you need to show what it’s possessing if you use it.
Sore can be used as a subject or object directly:
それを説明して下さい。
Explain that please.Compared to:
その話を説明して下さい。 Explain that conversation please.
Using “no” to show possession can be used without indicating the possessed word with regular nouns, but not the kono/sono/ano words.

- Comment on Learning Japanese 2 weeks ago:
Or any country really. I’d be curious to see if a chart of languages ranked on how many countries’ endonyms are also the same word in that language. But there’s definitely no language that doesn’t have exonyms.

It’s absolutely amazing how such a massive show with a huge fanbase completely tapped into the story managed to fuck it up so hard that literally everyone stopped talking about it immediately after the finale. It takes garbage writing of epic proportions to make every single one of your viewers wish they’d never seen your show.
I’d seen shows blow their stories before but never one with the amount of money and talent this one had.

They’re good sandwiches for a bit, but after awhile the lack of substance really gets to you. With the single bread type and an almost complete lack of deli meat (and good toppings like cheese and pickles being scarce) i just really miss sandwich culture
