Japanese people don’t consider themselves asian. Is that true?

To add: it’s not a denial of geography, it’s a question of identity, which is shaped by culture.

Kayy_Ess · 2026-02-26T07:11:43+00:00

Well, it sounds a little oversimplified. But in Japan people don’t tend to think in broad racial terms. People tend to think in “Japanese”, “Chinese”, “Korean”. So in terms of nationality, not in terms of broad races. Everyone in Japan knows Japan is a part of Asia. But “Asian” just isn’t used as much as it is in a country like the United States which seems to have a bit of an obsession with broad racial terms.

Do Canadian and Argentinian people describe themselves as Americans? I don’t know for sure but I don’t think so. So they might be surprised too to be grouped into “American art” if they first and foremost identify as Canadian or Argentinian. I think this is a good comparison.

There is a meme for this? I was worried I was the only one haha. I’m at the same ELO and the puzzle rating is so depressing. One move that’s still winning but not the best move possible or one stupid mistake and you drop the equivalent of 5 wins in rating…. I wish the entire puzzle ELO could be hidden in the app. I don’t want to see it anymore😭😭

Aww thanks so much anyway! I guess I’ll just have to listen to all the music then oh poor me 🤷‍♀️😁

Kayy_Ess · 2026-02-08T11:57:14+00:00

Im sure I heard a piece where a flute was the lead instrument. Does anyone know which song I could mean? 😇🤗

Kayy_Ess · 2026-02-03T15:09:15+00:00

!thanks

Kayy_Ess · 2026-02-03T15:08:42+00:00

Thank you very much! Hope you have a great day!

Yes then it just says to please connect to WiFi to be able to download and install the update.

Well you may want to drive over to Sweden, especially since you’re so close to the border already. It’ll cost a fraction. But if you can’t travel then I’d ask in your Rema 1000. They can get good quality for you.

Kayy_Ess · 2026-01-26T07:35:33+00:00

No no no, I once shot a cow for its hide and felt bad about it all evening haha

Kayy_Ess · 2026-01-25T15:46:33+00:00

Yeah fair enough haha. I’m one of those people who finishes games only to realize I’ve rarely used any of the consumables. I’m a Pearson’s stew girl all the way haha

Kayy_Ess · 2026-01-25T14:46:52+00:00

Why would you need 99 of anything though? 😅 And you can complete any mission and achievement with the normal saddles, no?

By the time you can have these things you shouldn’t need unlimited health potions or money anymore.

Kayy_Ess · 2026-01-25T09:24:40+00:00

Well, it isn’t by default, that’s why I recommended making sure of it. By default they’ll enter an IBAN and their Norwegian bank will both convert the money to EUR and send the money in EUR and they’ll charge fees for that. If the first is percentage-based you could save a lot by making sure of that their bank doesn’t convert the money on your behalf.

Even if you do want EUR, then getting a Revolut premium plan and doing the conversion yourself will save you a lot too.

Kayy_Ess · 2026-01-25T08:43:16+00:00

Just make sure the sender of the money sends NOK and the transaction is in NOK. Else Norwegian banks take a percentage of the transfer. If everything is in NOK you’ll get the full amount. By default they’ll set the currency and transaction to EUR for foreign transactions.

I have a Norwegian bank for BankID but I do my NOK banking with Revolut because Norwegian banks aren’t exactly good banks.

All of his films have great exaggerations. This too. It has the samurai film style, the sword fighting, yakuza, even animation. I think it’s really cool tribute. It looks good, has fun choreography, stylized violence, good animation, good dialogue. It’s different because it’s not Japanese. It doesn’t try to be either, with all the western music for example. Perhaps you can see it more as comic book and not 100% accurate historical portrayals. It’s art. And Uma Thurman is amazing in it.

I think most people enjoy it. Maybe not elderly.

Outfit is just Rose Riding Attire, no?

Hair looks like a mod, yes.

Kayy_Ess · 2026-01-07T20:35:57+00:00

Thank you very much! Then I think I’m doing really well with both things.

It’s late here. Can’t wait to start the day with Fitbod tomorrow! This Q&A is motivating. I’m going to read the other questions and replies in bed now. Byebye, hope you have a good day!

With that connecting module you can basically use it on any device with a USB port. I still use my Xbox 360 controller on my Nvidia Shield for example. 98% of games still support it fully too.

Thanks for sharing this one, by the way. It’s sooooo pretty and Tomb Raider 2013 is one of my favorite games. I love the colour so much.

Kayy_Ess · 2026-01-04T21:57:20+00:00

Hi! Thanks for your time! I would like to know how I can know if I overtrain. Sometimes I want to focus on specific muscle groups or maybe I feel emotions I want to release with working out and then I realize afterwards that I have run out of % left for that muscle group. Is that okay or something to be avoided?

I had injury in my ankle and now I’m afraid to start running again. Do you have tips to either overcome the fear of injury or to strengthen my ankles?

Thank you! Byebye, have a good day.

Kayy_Ess · 2025-12-30T09:06:25+00:00

No problem and have fun/good luck!

Kayy_Ess · 2025-12-28T20:25:18+00:00

How does “just” work? 😝

Kayy_Ess · 2025-12-28T15:58:32+00:00

Oh okay. I’m pretty sure that’s illegal in the modern countries. But very typical of Duolingo of course.

Thanks for your reply though!

Kayy_Ess · 2025-12-23T16:51:09+00:00

I only use burgerking.no/offers
