@lowlandsapien I hate to say this, but imo, Toyota is on their way out with the direction that the new CEO is taking the company. He’s pushing the EV scam and abandoning everything that has made and kept Toyota great. Only the war machine will get any new “good” vehicles from them from now on.
Every year, across Japan there are literally hundreds of Firework Festivals. "Yonshakudama" is the largest firework shell in the world launched for the Katakai-Matsuri Festival: 420 kg of weight

⚠️ Free food out there ⚠️
Many are overscheduled, overworked, zonked-out, depressed, zombies-- too "busy" to bother to harvest fruit.
I knock if I see an apple tree and they BEG me to take away the fruit.
I offer cider in exchange but they often just want the fruit gone.
.@JoeRogan on UFOs: "It could be that it's some super sophisticated U.S. controlled drone that was built in some sort of program that was top secret, and it has some new super sophisticated propulsion system that they don't want us to know about, and so they pretend it's coming from another world.
They say these are off-world crafts exhibiting behavior that are impossible to replicate in America. I wonder because if they are talking about it like that and literally saying off-world.
Boy, I get suspicious because they are not super honest about anything. Why would they be honest about spaceships?"
Hello all, this is important:
Welcome to Autumn. This kicks off the Cozy SZN, which winds our way toward the hardship season of Winter. As we transition this equinox, know that this is the season of cozy. Of candles, warm drinks, family, and friends. The cold nights are a reminder to get out and enjoy the outdoors while you still can.
The first 2/3 of Cozy SZN are also Spooky SZN. It is a time to get in tune with those that came before us, who are no longer here, and remember their wisdom, and to provide memories to the young ones that will outlast you.
Take care, and happy Fall, friends.
