@JayLuvsBeauty1 @wesrap @RepDennisBonnen While I do get that, it’s a really sorry excuse for being responsible. Do you mean that people are robots, have no will to make responsible choices based on what they’ve seen in the news over months? They NEED an order to comply? smh

@ChristinaKerby Riiiight? Can’t live without my washlet! And my parents-in-law have one with a BLOWDRYER. Yes, you read that right.

@ChristinaKerby @tdmv Mariko Williams! As far as I know she’s in Oakland, CA. Haven’t seen her in years though. Hope everything is going well and that you’re completely in the clear now! ❤️

@ChristinaKerby @tdmv Hi Christina, from Kyoto. Saw your name mentioned in the Japan Times and then noticed that Mariko, my former colleague in Yokohama, is a common friend. What an ordeal you’ve all been through! I wish you all the best and a quick docking. ❤️

@sanji_kinchan @3bluefrog 皆さんも言っていますが、COVID-19 が外国で始まったにしても、外国人の問題ではありません。顔と国籍だけで、保菌していないこと、確認出来ますか。私はアメリカ人で、20年間、日本に滞在している者です。私の顔を見て、白人なのでお断りになりますか。考え方が単純すぎます。

[前澤友作 @yousuck2020]

自分の力だけではどうしようもできない人に、人生を立て直す「きっかけ」という名のお金（今回は100万円）が配られたらどうなるか？人生好転させられないか？

自分次第だから努力しろ、って突き放すのではなく、社会全体でチャンスを与えることできるのでは？
