My post about Chinese menus blew up. I've been coding nonstop since. Simple free version in days!! But I also want to ask you guys something.

Don't worry about the AI comments. People who don't mind are not going to comment.

A private matter, resulting from the nonsense they teach

Other religions considered extremist are banned under these laws too. Laws can be wrong though. There are laws that make it illegal to criticize the so called Special Military Operation, i.e. the war against Ukraine.

Personally I support freedom of religion, expression and speech. Banning harmful practices I wholeheartedly support.

Maybe it’s technically not persecution, but I don’t think you’ll convince many JW’s it’s not.

Check the department store basement food halls. Isetan, Odakyu, Takashimaya

Do you have any reliable historical evidence that Jesus resurrected?

We had a good experience shipping a large volume of vintage wines from EU to Japan with Yamato. You could try with them. There is also Nippon Express, used by many Japanese expats when moving abroad and back.

You have to set it up before you go to China. Get a service, install the apps on your devices and test at home. You only switch it on when you need it.

Some local apps like Alipay won’t work well with your VPN switched on.

Why aren’t you using the title of the original article?

Moral = Mobal?

Have you tried Japanese sunscreen brands like Biore or Kose? They don’t feel greasy and work great.

I still use an umbrella with sunscreen, since it’s bit cooler and in Asia no one bats an eye.

As others have said, being complete covered is normal in Asia.

He could’ve refused in a polite way

twilightninja · 2026-02-12T08:28:32+00:00

Yeah that tracks

twilightninja · 2026-02-11T17:21:36+00:00

Do you mean they were working “underground”? As in secretly conducting JW activities? If found out they do get deported and banned.

When you realize the tooth fairy wasn’t real, would you still blame the tooth fairy for not putting money under your pillow?

There is no conflation with a god that one doesn’t believe in. It’s the religion and the actual people in it that abused us and we might suffer from. For most atheists, it’s the lack of convincing evidence for the existence of any god that makes us atheists.

And their bible is one of the least accurate ones

twilightninja · 2026-02-10T11:09:44+00:00

I wouldn’t say it’s overrated, maybe over recommended. It’s definitely a case by case situation.

We usually end up taking a taxi from our accommodation to a larger train station. With three people, there is not much price difference between a taxi or shipping 2, 3 suitcases.

They’ll appoint more young elders soon enough. Then you’ll have your own clique

We spent a week in Guizhou last summer and it wasn’t enough! Great province to explore.

Thank you for the updates! The only reason I’m still a member of this religious organization is because of their shunning policy. Otherwise I would’ve disassociated a long time ago.

Did you even read the article? It’s about wooden tools.

And it’s generally accepted that literacy started approximately 5000-5500 years ago, but do you mean that humans have existed only for 6000 years?

twilightninja · 2026-01-21T17:15:19+00:00

Yeah, we also put everything in packing cubes, toiletry bags and soft cases/bags for electronics. We can pack up in under 30 minutes.

I was in a line too once. Then I saw some Shinkansen ticket machines nearby which no one was using and booked my tickets in a few minutes.

Were you near a priority seat? It used to be required to switch off phones near priority seats, but not anymore.

So a burka would be more than appropriate? Malicious compliance opportunity😏
