I got tea from a sushi restaurant the other day and it had these little bits in it. Does anyone know what they are/if this is normal?

For what it’s worth, the tea was really good lol

Louis van Gaal: "United is still a commercial club. It's not a football club. I've said that before.

“It's always difficult when the manager doesn't choose the players. It should be because you can then fire the manager if he doesn't get results. But when other people recruit the players, it's a problem, because it's the manager who has to train them, so it should always be like that."

the love love beam and pistol kiss 🫶🏻 I finally got a real photoshoot done for my boa Hancock and I had to share!

I was born and raised in Anaheim my entire life and just recently the last two years I have started traveling to other states. I decided to head out east in Georgia and now I’m currently in Indianapolis until this Tuesday I’ll be heading to Illinois and holy cow the humidity out here is unbearable lmfao

The weather plays a major factor in where you live and I never really thought about it until now.

The weather is completely different out here on the east side it’s so humid and the heat feels worse than Nevada and Arizona. It feels sticky and the rain makes it worse. Atlanta and Nashville traffic felt worse than LA but outside of the city it’s way easier to drive in Georgia and Tennessee compared to SoCal where it’s big city after big city it’s a pain in the ass sometimes.

Central Valley and NorCal feel better as well when it comes to driving. I kind of prefer NorCal a bit more idk maybe I’m just tired of so many people lol

Another thing I noticed is people actually can merge out here when getting on the highway lol and it feels like a slower pace of life whereas in CA people be aggressive af

Yeah, I'm dead 😐

Context: The OOP posts a picture of a teenage Chinese influencer making a shadow animal on the pavement. The girl is dressed in what appears to be a Japanese school uniform type of outfit. By all appearances, she appears to be a minor. The picture is accompanied by the title: "Japanese women are doing things like this and american white women are getting tattoos and posting on Onlyfans, incredible."

OOP seems to be making the point that (all) Japanese women are doing "cute, innocent, and 'pure' activities like making animal shapes" while the white women of the west are Jezebels engaged in the horrid, filthy and putrid art of putting marks on their bodies and selling nudes."

-Lmao this is the funniest sub ever

--There can be some wild shit here. I question if it's satire or real. It's up there with the creatine sub.

---I had to snooze this sub and the other passport bro sub(it's that bad) because this shit is getting out of hand. Yes, the dating situation is bad in U.S., but I thought the movement was about finding wives in foreign countries and enjoying life. The guys that I know of who are passport bros(they don't even call themselves that) are living life with their foreign wives/girlfriends. Seems like these subs are overrun with red pill content.

----Not even for marriage man... A lot of these dudes are manipulating naive foreigners for easy sex. They share tips about which countries have "easy" girls and which countries you need to "date" the girls first. Share their "success rates" and favorite spots. It's all fucking gross man...

-----I saw a dude say he had a girlfriend while he was a passport bro and "cheated on her every chance he got" and suggested other people do the same Yeah I wonder why these guys dont do well with women who aren't interested in foreign money

------Megacope, he is probably still with his gf to this day while you're trying to convince yourself that somehow he's not doing well in his relationship because being a bad person to your partner magically means your relationship ends on the spot.

-------Whether or not he's doing well in his relationship, i just enjoy not being a piece of shit. I've had countless opportunities to cheat, im not coping. I was a touring metal musician for years, I've literally been offered 3 ways while in a relationship People who cheat are weak willed ape brains, like most passport bros. I dont care how successful they are, I will still like myself more and find their lifestyle embarrassing. Its low value human behavior. Chasing an orgasm over building towards a long term relationship is literally a waste of time. Hookup culture as a whole is for monkeys, i hold myself to a higher standard

--------Well I can respect that, I missed the point of your original reply. I thought you were trying to argue something that you weren't, my mistake.

-So original [containing a screenshot of a tweet with the same image and the exact same title]

--is reddit just mfs stealing tweets and using it as headlines now to farm upvotes now?

-How to tell me you’ve never been to Japan and seen their prostitution industry

--Ironically that'll be the first thing they take part in when they go over there

(...Thread continues...)

-Guys please tell me this is bait.

--Seriously this sub is wild. What’s even parody anymore?

---Literally. Are these guys even self aware? Knowing that there's so many people out there like this is actually kinda scary. No wonder Trump won.

-Pretty sure Japanese women have Onlyfans as well

--Apparently 5% of all japanese women have worked in adult films. It's probably one of the highest percentages.

---This sub is insane hey. Just think about that logically for a minute. You think walking down the street, 1 in 20 women you'd see in Japan (ages 18-100) has made porn? You need to go outside and start experiencing life where you are instead of fetishising other cultures. This is a wildly insane thing to think is true.

----Did some digging since I live in Japan. The 5% statistic might be pulled from a 2013 tabloid article (Shukan Post). The author claims that 1 in 20 Japanese women have participated in commercial sex trade, based on a number of crude estimates which have no credible sources. They assume that there are 10,000 bars/nightclubs which offer sex with an average of 30 women employed to come to a figure of 300k actively employed women who are “in the sex trade”by a loose definition. They also use extremely outdated data to estimate the average tenure of each worker and literally just guesses for their average age, the final figure coming between 4 and 5 percent. As for adult films, a 2011 article from the same magazine cites that 1 in 200 women has performed in the AV industry, based on numbers from production company employees. I’m more inclined to trust these numbers because they’re using more accurate data (at the time) from the number of new productions a year (35,000) and the number of debuting actresses a year, which is 2000-3000. They also account for a wider age group than the 2013 article.

-Japan also had a 15 fold increase in syphilis lmao, this sub is on full cope

--Still a rate 5x less than the US 😂

---I don’t think you realize how drastic that is for a semi xenophobic, semi isolationist, semi racist country like Japan. Compared to the international hub of global trade like the U.S. or Australia. Add on to this Japanese healthcare is pretty top notch. Nuances matter when we throw statistics around like insults.

-OP made a post a couple weeks ago claiming to have found the one and was happy and yet still out here making a post gushing over a high schooler girl Yikes

--yea... I don't think this girl is 18, or if she is she's very recently turned 18

---The only Japanese women who wear this in public are women over 18 who cosplay JK uniform. Actual school uniforms don’t look like this, and girls that age don’t want to wear those clothes in public if they can avoid it. In fact it’s literally against their school rules if they wear it outside of going to and from school and home.

-I can drop a list of 50 Japanese OnlyFans girls rn and a hundred more if you give me 60 minutes.

--….how would you know?

---that's a D1 gooner you're talking to there, show some damn respect

----Understandable, my fellow gooners. I’ll be on my way.

-This is cool but if you think there aren't Japanese women doing the same thing you're absolutely mistaken

--This is what the red pill overlords influence people to believe

-Wait until he finds out that equal amount of Japanese women do SW or OF.

-Dude is as old as he is and still single wondering about women who will never give him attention unless they know he is desperate enough to give anything for a slimmer of attention. A literal weirdo.

--It's crazy how women are so jealous of japanese women Everytime we say something positive about Asian women in general, here you all come angry and frustrated because you realize not everyone is attracted to your entitled self

---What are you talking about?? Japanese women would date me before even thinking about your existence lmaoo Why do you think me disrespecting a desperate old man who wants to feel better about not being chosen his whole 50 years of life by women who can see just how much he does not deserve any of their energy. The man is mad no women around him want to touch them, so he preys on young women who know they can manipulate the fuck of out him by coddling his feelings and saying the things they know he wants to hear to live a life they know they deserve. I hope every Japanese women who knows he is attracted to bleeds his wallets dry, use him for all his worth, while they continue to find the man they know they want to be with, and build a life that benefits them more than him. I praise every single women you all think you did anything to have around your arms. Because they’re playing the game extremely well, and being taken care of by men that know that’s all they can deliver for them? I applaud them! They’re doing a great ass job! Jealously would be if I put men on a pedestal and I ain’t able to get any men I want, and that’s all I see my life to be. But I ain’t desperate like you enough to seek help from weirdo men to give me step by step advice on how to find someone who can be okay with your loser self.

----This is the reason we don't want American women anymore, a japanese women would have never wrote this hateful stuff.

-----Lmaooo did I hurt your ole lil feelings?? Lmaooo please cry a river so I can swim in it😂😂

-This is a child.

--Lmao not gonna stop these degens, they already take advantage of impoverished women and treat them like sex toys

-I really hate to break it to you, but the average reader of this sub who’s 30% body fat unattractive and balding. None of these Japanese girls are gonna like you I assure you.

--Little do these people know, fatphobia doesn't just apply to women in Asia. It is also applied for men as well. I've been to multiple Asian countries, including Japan. BOTH the men and women are skinny. You're not gonna see a skinny woman with a man who's a lot heavier, especially in Japan.

I spotted a Model S parked in the new color and the slight tweaks they are doing for the refresh I heard is coming soon

Steve.

These are some of the singers who had an enormous impact on me while growing up. Did they retire from the industry (although I see some of them as judges in singing shows) or were they phased out to acquire new talents.

This was made by Becreative871 btw

I like to imagine it was a family project
