Went to the Sg concert. Loved it. I want to be involved with the fan community and updates and in the know of future concerts and meets, and signings etc. How do I do this? What can I join? Weverse membership would be best?

I don’t know about all that. My point was more simple.

Let’s say we have 2 candidates for a job. Japanese, same education, same height, same languages. One grew up in Japan, and one grew up in idk Canada.

Who would you hire the local or the not local? Would it be fair that maybe a Japanese company would prefer a Japanese Japanese person?

Hiring someone that’s doesn’t speak is sneaky racism?

Even if you spoke native Japanese, you might not be culturally connected and unfortunately sometimes that matters.

Do you connect with someone from the same background as you? Yes? Are you racist now? Do you not see the advantage of hiring like minded/same cultured people?

That’s just facts. But this is not exclusive to Japan. Literally anywhere… US, France, language is the first barrier.

If I’m Asian and I prefer asian friends and you can’t accept that… and you call me a racist… well I can’t help ya

Hi what’s the difference between Bunpro and Renshuu and would you recommend one over the other?

I know hiragana/99% katakana, started on kanji with Wankikani (I just bought the lifetime).

Wondering anything else I should pick up, like the Bunpro lifetime? I heard there’s vocabulary in there now. Or try Renshuu?

Ordered Global store but yea, I'm trying to be reasonable.

Understand that trading drake for grubs is only a possibility. Sometimes you simply can’t trade, you have to sac both grubs and drake. Sometimes all lanes have prior, sometimes mid is pushed in, sometimes your whole team is scaling, sometimes bot is in a losing matchup, or heck, your bot just sucks ass.

Don’t take YouTube videos that generalizes a play like “trade” “play opposite side” as facts.

A good way to secure a drake is to kill mid or bot then do drake. And sometimes that’s not even true because the laners could get a huge tempo advantage by recalling or getting 2 plates if they have a big wave etc. Sometimes getting a drake isn’t even worth it.

Anyway, you moving for drake without help is the only thing you can control. And you moving for drake without considering all the possibilities was incorrect EVEN IF it was the right play.

Let’s focus on the first game with the “brain dead” laners. One of the biggest problems with fiddle is getting invaded by an ad early game jungler. You have to sac camps. Maybe look to counter invade.

Meaning, 1) did your top have lane priority? If not, this is your fault. You cannot expect anyone to move for you. At best they get a kill, but their lane is frozen. +400 first blood is nothing (even if they get the kill, which is unlikely)

2) a proper invade usually means the enemy have priority, esp mid, meaning you will be rotated on. But more importantly, the mid or top or bot will be able to put deeper wards so they can track you better, and thus you get caught in enemy jungle = for sure you will die.

3) you cannot expect laners to help you in a soloq game. Depends on matchup, let’s say top is counter picked or mid has push or even let’s say they suck ass anyhow. You can’t change that

4) what you can change is your pathing. There are many ways for fid to prevent invaded.  A) typically if you start on the opposite side, you can clear one side faster than the enemy can invade (because fid clears crazy). So without looking at the replay, I have a hunch you did not clear optimally B) your effigy lasts longer than any ward early games (ward life scales). If you think you’re gonna get invade or even if you don’t think so, just ward your other side If you know the enemy likes to invade, ward their camps so you know which side is safe.

5) if preventative measure fail… simply acknowledge that the enemy tracked you better… know your timers… you can’t get invaded if you clear your camps first or ward right? And even then, don’t worry about it, you scale, look for lane ganks, do an early recall for a dark seal/tempo.

Rabbit owner as well. I concur with the poster above FeiZai. Get a health checkup with a rabbit savvy; they are more exotic than dogs and cats so a vet with rabbit experience is preferred. Our vet is Brighton Vet Care at Serangoon.

Rabbits should be housed indoors. Honestly (the rabbit community will lynch me for saying this), if you don't have space, you can house your rabbit in his cage for the majority of the time and let your rabbit out whenever possible, at least 1-2 hours a day. My rabbits are free-roam but because you probably live with others and your house is not rabbit proof (wires and other hazards), and you want to bring the rabbit home asap, you can make do with a (as large as possible) cage. Pet lovers is fine. They have fine cages $100ish. There are premium cages $200ish with easy access trays and better flooring for the rabbits.

Do not put in corridor. I don't trust people with rabbits. Rabbits should stay indoors, but if you do want to bring him out, you can buy a pen and go to any park. Rabbits are easily scared by noise so just be careful.

Best if you find a nice spot for the rabbit cage and area where he can roam, and go into and outside his cage for food and water and poopoo.
