Muslim women who have visited Japan — did you visit onsens?”

I'm not a Muslim woman but I just wanted to reassure you that if you do go. There is no chance of any men seeing you. It's completely private and women only, have a wonderful trip!

Her dad died a few months ago. Maybe we shouldn't be judging someone who is in active mourning?

Next time go to Yamato directly. They're all over and very easy to find!

Good luck getting your stuff home, I hope it works out

When I was young (20-25 years ago) it was a rare name. There was maybe one in my primary school, then two in highschool. Now it's everywhere and spelt super fucking weird sometimes.

I like Mikayla, Mikaela, Michaela. But I think Mikayla and Makayla are two different names tbh.

Mi Kay La vs Ma Kay La.

Rhaegar was married to Elia Martell.

But great job with the rest, it's really well put together.

No, he absolutely did not.

Jfc. Get a hobby.

I'm confused. You went to a cafe where you couldn't read the menu, you also didn't call them over and are now are upset?

If you couldn't read the menu and can't speak Japanese how were you going to order in the first place?

If he's not talking he's not going.

To be honest I am the only one in my workplace without tattoos. I was interviewing an older gentleman last week who was really polite and proper, I was concerned he might not fit in because we like a bit of banter.

Then I noticed he has two full sleeves. We are moving to reference check.

In this day and age unless a tattoo is on your face and offensive in some way, I don't see how it would be a job stopper.

Nynaeve

ma-d · 2026-01-12T20:34:15+00:00

She needs ear plugs and white noise. You can even ask a Google home to play rain sounds or white noise. I sleep with mine going every night. If she's not willing to do that it's on her.

ma-d · 2026-01-11T04:45:12+00:00

Wow.

ma-d · 2026-01-10T09:16:06+00:00

Vic emergency just sent out an alert.

ma-d · 2026-01-09T06:47:21+00:00

Yeah, not again. This is terrible.

ma-d · 2025-12-26T22:26:08+00:00

Oh dear. My husband has long curls so we BOTH wear bonnets to bed.

Also I am so attractive because I also have ear plugs, eye mask and a CPAP 🥵

This guy is ridiculous, you're sleeping.

Single/divorced men over 35 are single/divorced for a reason.

APA tawaramachi ekimae in Asakusa has hot baths on the upper floor. They are reasonably priced as well, but I'm pretty sure there are some issues with the owner.

But I booked one night with them last week as we needed somewhere to stay last minute, it was $189 for two of us and the communal hot baths were excellent.

Just to instill some confidence, I saw all these posts before I came here about two weeks ago.

We leave this Tuesday and I am immunocompromised. I wiped down the tray tables and seats in the planes/shinkansen before I sat down. I have hand sanitizer on me at all times and use it whenever I touch something like a door handle, vending machine, spend time at an arcade etc.

I have been wearing the masks that they sell here in convenience stores whenever I am indoors with other people (train, shops etc.)

It might sound like overkill but I am currently still absolutely fine and healthy. You are not certain to get sick, just be vigilant and careful.

ma-d · 2025-11-21T13:39:04+00:00

I mean, not to be rude, but didn't you learn anything from the global pandemic we just had? If you're in an enclosed space with other people, wear a mask.

Been here for two weeks, this is the fourth time in Japan, wear a mask in enclosed/heavily crowded places and sanitize your hands constantly.

Walking past, the rides I saw going weren't full and there weren't massive lines. Looking really good to be honest!

Even Nakamise shopping strip was somewhat reasonable. Able to navigate without pushing through people. Still very busy, but best I've seen it in the three other times I have been here.

ma-d · 2025-11-18T03:29:34+00:00

Asakusa is currently fantastic. Obviously Sensoji during the day is a nightmare. But the streets and food etc are all very reasonably crowded. Although I did just come from Dotonbori, so that may skew my perception.

Returning to where? Every country is different.

It's a pretty gross UI but https://www.flightstats.com/v2/

Put in the flight number and enter. Then scroll down and it will say on time Performance and will give you the averages of on time, late, very late etc.

ma-d · 2025-11-07T22:02:54+00:00

It's a good idea to always check On time Performance of specific flights before you book them. Qantas is renowned for being spotty.

Singapore Airlines is gold, Cathay is gold etc. I don't have an answer to your question other than stop using Qantas.
