@OldManLefty1 @billybatsonwhiz It is OK to paraphrase Pelley's words (which is what you did). It's not OK to attribute what you paraphrased as the actual words Pelley used. It doesn't matter if you are accurately conveying what Pelley actually said.

@ArturGalata This kind of behavior should be an instant fine. Stamp it on their passport and they can pay an imbecile nuisance fee as they exit. So sick of this behavior.

@TalBeerySec I actually use this button all the time!

@RealKidPoker The UAE has price controls on about a dozen "essential" items including staple foods and household items. The policy is regularly reevaluated and narrow in scope.

The majority of the population in the UAE isn't well off and they benefit greatly from this policy.

@PaprikaGirl_JP In the more inaka areas, they go a step further and put newspaper on the floor directly underneath the nest to catch the droppings. I always know there's a nest above when I see the newspapers taped on the ground.

@mizunocaitlin Oh, I understand. Some things should remain sacred. Hand-drawn hanamarus definitely in that category.

@zunamondin @JeremiahDJohns @hankgreen Interestingly, I don't think carbon footprint is even in the top 3 reasons why they don't drive as much as the US. Oftentimes it's simply inconvenient to drive/park rather than to walk or take public transport.

[Mio Shibata @mioshibata]

@JeremiahDJohns @hankgreen A big problem in the US is overconsumption. The convenience-first mentality needs to change. Yes Japanese people own cars. But they don't drive every day, everywhere. It's not the default when deciding how to get somewhere. It's often the 3rd choice after walking / public transp.

@sanfrecceREGINA かっこいい！🤩💪🏼👸🏻

@aishiterutokyo Brilliant, thanks! It's like you do this for a living or something. 😎

[Mio Shibata @mioshibata]

@aishiterutokyo Can we get a quick half-time report please?

[Mio Shibata @mioshibata]

@aishiterutokyo From the replays it looks like the entirety of the ball did not cross. As girigiri as it gets.

[Mio Shibata @mioshibata]

@aishiterutokyo Linesman had a nightmare. Iran multiple foul throws all game. Seems insignificant but their long throw ins are clearly part of their offensive strategy. That final foul throw starts the lead up to the play that ends in a penalty being awarded. 🤡

@ChadAHolloway There are lots of closed field events in poker. Why don't we see non-seniors enter senior events or non-dealers in dealers-only events? Or how about non-veterans in veterans-only events? Why do some men insist on taking this stance only when it comes to women's events? Pathetic.

[Mio Shibata @mioshibata]

@yo_samuteki @ShootOsaka Yes, because western immigrants are "expats" and the rest of us are immigrants.

[Mio Shibata @mioshibata]

@yo_samuteki I think your take lacks some nuance. 外人is simplified from 外国人which literally means "person from outside [our] country." So from a 1st person POV, a Japanese person may use 外国人to refer to foreigners (aka non-Japanese) whether you are saying it in Japan or not.

@Burritodesu Ahhh...Good luck! Finding a good cross-cultural name can be difficult.

[Mio Shibata @mioshibata]

@Burritodesu How about Leo?
