In their defense, the way the game presents text is directly modeled on twitter so it’s entirely on brand. Messaging bungled it, but also I don’t think people have much faith in the new owners

I think there's a bright future ahead for anyone who can popularize a translation of Giddens' "double hermeneutics," often abbreviated as "double-h," into Japanese not as "ダブルH" but as "WH"

Does anyone have any good resources/books even to help lecturers design better PPT slides? I get by, of course, but I want to think through it a bit more carefully.

I heard this crazy thing about The Last Samurai on a podcast but I can’t verify it (who has access to DVD featuretres these days anyway?) certainly of interest to @davidleheny.bsky.social

Surely I’m not the only person who thinks this is aesthetically speaking the equivalent of your crystal aunt posting weird angel pictures on Facebook.

Starting from 20th February, the National Diet Library will allow photocopies of physical sources to be delivered as a PDF rather than by post This is thanks to a new provision in the 2021 revision to the Copyright Act www.ndl.go.jp/jp/news/fy20...

I've been lax in plugging the Waseda podcast, but I particularly enjoyed this discussion with Prof. Liu-Farrer about migration in Asia. We talk about the artificial ideas of "skilled" migration, and how labour flows in Asia impact both sending and receiving nations: www.waseda.jp/top/en/news/...

Bit worrying that the reaction from the number one news podcast in Japan to the Gaza “take-over” news was rendered in the most positive way possible for Trump.

Please repost, friends in Japan! Dr. Anna Wozny (PhD, University of Michigan) will speak at Waseda University's Graduate School of Asia-Pacific Studies next Thursday (February 13) at 4 p.m. on "The 'Marriage-Hunting' Market and Gendered Governance in Japan." All are welcome. Thanks for reposting!

If you were under the impression that Japanese media is broadly representative of expert opinion and mainstream science with regards to climate change, I regret to inform you that is changing extremely rapidly. Just an outlier but: www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTjV...

The joke below operates on the logic that the present conditions of life are incapable of sustaining a "Home Alone" scenario. But I would like to clarify that the truth is in fact the opposite: the present mode of life is best understood as a perpetual "Home Alone" scenario. Allow me to explain.

Whatever one’s gripes with the JCP, their newspaper plays a crucial role in the way Japanese democracy actually functions. But it is a function that is laundered through subsequent reporting. This is particularly an issue because subscription rates are plummeting
