Burned by the Bots!
Tracked by the Twitteratti!

One of my yard sticks has been met, and earlier than anticipated.
So I ask, to delete my tweet and return to my main, or to wait until December 8th and 2 months of this BS to be over?
Well, it's been 5 weeks since I was restricted for a week because I tweeted out song lyrics.
5 weeks since I appealed that restriction.
Someone who was restricted after me has apparently had their restriction lifted.
Twitter has left me to rot.
Well, there we go.
I'll be deleting the tweet that triggered a bot and trying to get back on main.
I just realised that there are about 5 weeks of notifications I'll be getting...
Wish me luck.
@OliverJia1014 Agreed.
Every country has issues, but the only foreigners I know who had continued troubles never tried to assimilate.
They tried to act like Japan was Europe or the US, or should be those places.
I'm hoping to head back next year.
Overall I agree.
I had a few issues with specific xenophobes in Japan, but over all?
My in-laws, & local communities there were more welcoming & accommodating than most Americans are online.
I got told westerners like oliver & I were the return of Showa Era (1926-89) glory, ffs.
@blitztheumbreon@TheTwistedFay It's a myth I've tried to bust 3 times in the last 2 years....
Honestly, I like Shogo; he's great when talking about modern Japan.
But any time he talks history, I press X to doubt, and by the gods do I want to help him with his English...
He's so close!
@TheGothicGoth @OldWaysBob @JenDragonQueen@OceanKeltoi@BionicDance @ByronEugene1 I've stepped away from watching Suris tbh.
I love his reasoning but can't find a central theme that gets my attention anymore.
Like he's cost too wide a net.
I still watch Paul, GM, RR and Viced Rhino though.
@TheGothicGoth @OldWaysBob @JenDragonQueen@OceanKeltoi@BionicDance @ByronEugene1 Considering she supposedly stopped making atheist content to focus on her animation work over a year ago, it's not surprising you wouldn't be instantly familiar with the name.
I'm experiencing some irony at work
I'm a professional ESOL teacher at a Private Training Organisation & my manager needs to be a student
I can barely understand her emails, & when I do she has tone/double meaning issues that take 5+ follow ups to parse out & she blames me.
Back when I was agnostic I got given so much shit by online atheists for "cowardice", "dishonesty" and "covering for theists".
The number of times I've been told that science centre has replaced or superceded philosophy, or that it's unnecessary, is honestly disheartening...
@Frustd_Atheist@blitztheumbreon@TheTwistedFay A little bit of both, sure.
But it doesn't stop their initial presentation of the target from giving them a disadvantage, as far as I can tell.
@blitztheumbreon@TheTwistedFay Is historical BS.
He, like many in the tourist industry in Japan, has swallowed and spread popular myths because tourists think it's cool.
@blitztheumbreon@TheTwistedFay By law.
Osaka expects you to DRIVE on the left like the rest of the country because of law, but WALK on the right because Tokyo had a recognised tradition designed to regulate its bigger population and smaller gates.
I'm sorry to say, but a lot of what Shogo says...
