My team always delivers, but sometimes they outdo themselves. This article is fucking amazing.

Answerman - All Killer, No Filler and The One Piece Question
What's the deal with all that filler in One Piece - and why add a definite article to the title for the reboot? Jerome has answers.

I'm not certain what amuses me more, the fact that he misquotes a 1995 law that was repealed in 2018, or the fact that he basically admits the allegations were retracted because the "would-be-victim" would otherwise be "sued on grounds of defamation."

[Christopher Macdonald @ANN_Ed]

Frederico Antonio Russo (FAR) is trying to suppress the articles about his alleged grooming of a child. He to has threatened to file a complaint with the EDPB if ANN does not remove the articles.

[Christopher Macdonald @ANN_Ed]

@DoubleHexagon01 @lissbevs It's a fairly obvious assumption that it was FAR responding, but it's still an assumption. We *CAN NOT* publish assumption as fact. We have to let readers make the obvious assumption themselves.

[Christopher Macdonald @ANN_Ed]

@lissbevs We use his full name in the first paragraph. The rest of the article uses the abbreviation. Standard practice to use an abbreviation, nickname, or last name after the first mention.

I'm still interacting on X to reply to things related to ANN. Please feel free to @ me if there's anything I should look at.

For personal posts, commentary on the industry, and food pics from Japan, I've moved to bluer and fairer skies.

I'll try to be a bit more active.

They don't want "interculturalism," they want monoculturalism. Only
people who look, act and speak like them should apply; “Otherwise, it’s not a good idea to come here."

Bigot.

[Christopher Macdonald @ANN_Ed]

Ugh. Québec Immigration Minister @RobergeJeanFra1 is bringing the multicultural vs interculturalism dog whistle back as an excuse to enact racist, anti-immigration and exclusionary policies masked as policies to encourage secularism and sexual equality.

[Christopher Macdonald @ANN_Ed]

@worldofcrap Wow, I haven't heard anyone mention Aka-chan to Boku in over a decade. I think it was you who first introduced me to it.

Get enough to cover your debts, pay for your end-of-life affairs, and leave a bit to the people you love. If you die unexpectedly, they're going to be torn up; don't add a financial burden to their misery.

[Christopher Macdonald @ANN_Ed]

Folks, are you working? Do you contribute to your family financially in any way? Is there anyone who would want to spend money to see that you get a proper burial and memorial? Get fucking life insurance. Even (especially even) if you're young. It doesn't need to be a lot.

[Christopher Macdonald @ANN_Ed]

Ironically/unfortunately, the more you think "I can't afford life insurance," the more your family probably needs you to have it. A $100k policy will probably cost you less than $20 a month if you're healthy. https://t.co/bDIAS2p5px

Are any of my followers using Safari on Mac right now? Could you send me a screenshot of the top of the front page of ANN? Specifically looking to see if the Aliya Sometimes Hides her Feelings in Russian skin is being cut off like this:

Guess I know what I'm doing on my last day in Tokyo (Monday)

[Christopher Macdonald @ANN_Ed]

Just saw these two sitting on the corner of the Shibuya Scramble Crossing yesterday.

[Christopher Macdonald @ANN_Ed]

I've been saying it since I was a teenager: religion and culture are not valid excuses for bigotry, oppression and prejudice.

[Christopher Macdonald @ANN_Ed]

BBC has a segment on the Your Lie in April stage play (starts at 14:00) which features a few comments from ANN's UK reporter, Andrew Osmond. https://t.co/boMnaIldx1
