Never forget when LeBron James tried to doxx and threaten the life of a white police officer for killing a black woman before he had any facts about what actually happened. Then the bodycam footage came out and showed that the officer heroically SAVED a black woman’s life that was about to be stabbed to death.
After this, LeBron deleted the post in shame but MILLIONS of people had already seen it and many of them still believe it today. He never apologized to the officer for doing this… just moved on like it never happened.
LeBron James is legitimately a terrible person.
Daveigh Chase has sadly passed away at the age of 35.
She was the voice of Lilo in ‘Lilo & Stitch’ & Chihiro in the English dub of ‘Spirited Away’.
Unforgivable 😭💦
Someone burned a sacred shimenawa at a shrine… A woman in her 50s has been arrested on the spot for property damage in Naka Ward, Hiroshima.
A shimenawa is the sacred barrier that separates the divine world of the gods from our everyday world.
How could anyone set fire to something so holy? It’s absolutely unforgivable.
Arson is a serious crime, yet her name hasn’t been released in the reports… Is it a foreigner again? Or religion-related?
This kind of thing breaks my heart. We must protect Japan’s shrines and cultural heritage. 🇯🇵🙏

Imagine your lunch racing toward you
down a slide made of bamboo.
You have a pair of chopsticks
and about one second to catch it.
This is nagashi somen.
Cold spring water runs down
a split bamboo channel.
The cook drops in bundles of thin white noodles
and shouts "Here it comes!"
The noodles shoot past you.
You stab. You miss. You laugh.
You catch the next batch,
dunk them in cold dipping broth,
and eat them still chilled from the stream.
It started in 1959,
next to a gorge in Kyushu,
as a way to beat the summer heat.
Now whole families sit along the bamboo,
kids and grandparents,
all failing and laughing together.
It's not really about the noodles.
It never was.
On a hot Japanese summer day,
locals don't reach for ice cream.
They go find a mountain of snow.
It's called kakigori.
Not crushed ice.
Not a slushie.
Ice shaved so fine
it lands on your tongue like a snowflake
and melts before you can chew it.
The good shops build it into a tower
taller than the bowl,
then bury it in fresh fruit:
strawberries, mango, banana,
a river of sweet condensed milk
running down the whole mountain.
About $8.
There's even a rule:
start from the top, gently,
or the whole thing collapses.
A thousand years ago,
only emperors could afford ice in summer.
Now anyone can eat a snow mountain
covered in fruit
for the price of a sandwich.
