I've been a part of the @Cryptomories team/mods since the early days. I tried to keep the team focused in the chaos during the heyday and did my best to add value to the team. I also was the lead in stewarding the mental health utility from inception to conclusion. This among many other responsiblities.
However, now that the project is focused intensly on shipping a game, it's time for me to step aside and let gaming become front and center. We will always be a strong advocate of mental health, but we are a web3 gaming and lifestyle brand. Mental health is just one part of the overall vision. It's time to focus on its core business and execute. I'm so very grateful of all the support the FaMorie gave me for my ideas over the years. I'm truly humbled by the impact the therapy utility was able to make on people from all over the world.
If any project is looking for an ops guy/project manager I'm available. I'm not done impacting people's lives for the better through web3. On to my next adventure.
This week marks the end of my active trading days. I’ve completely blown up my account on AI stock options. I was reckless and went all in right before this washout. Honestly, I’m happy about it. I can get my life back from looking at charts all day and opining on what ifs. I’ve moved what’s left of my trading account into bitcoin and will just accumulate and not trade it. Congrats to those that made life changing wealth and was able to walk out of the casino. I got close several times but flew too close to the sun. Good luck everyone 🫡
Anyone who truly understands Japanese culture should know that Shinto/buddhism is inextricably integrated into the culture and western religion ergo western philosophy is completely foreign to deeply rooted Japanese value sets. You can notice the difference the Japanese version of Christianity. You would have to undo the fundamental underpinning of Japanese culture to convert them all into the western idea of Catholicism. Now a Japanese version would maybe possible but I’m sure most orthodox Catholics would reject this version.
None of your drivel is insightful. Of course a strict catholic would find these things sacrilegious. You need therapy not x. You’ve realized that for half your life you’ve tried integrating in a society whose culture compels you commit idolatry to fully integrate. Just leave Japan and stop trying to put your internal struggles on others who don’t care. Just come out and be more direct with your problem with Japan, your pseudo intellectual banter isn’t going to turn people to Christ. It’s disingenuous. A wolf in sheep’s clothing. You’ve reminded me why I left the church.
My take on this is if a business allows babies/kids then at some point in the day there will be one crying and being unruly. I tend to choose practicality over principle. Parents are responsible for addressing it, but at best you only reduce the incidence even with excellent parenting. Kids are unpredictable chimps. If you’re eating when someone’s kid goes off that is 100% of your experience you’ve paid for. Restaurants need to either be family friendly or not or have adult only zones. This discussion is good for society to set expectations on “family friendly” zones. I think family friendly will just get more unruly in the future. The trend is always going down, not sure how society turns parenting around at this point.
I can’t quite describe how infuriating people like this are. They think they are on some higher intellectual plane and he clearly has an agenda to degrade Shinto to elevate his Catholic agenda. He won’t come out and own his intentions and instead poses questions to gaslight people.
@timothyjphelan@Schultzinator11 What exactly is your point? Because the question is extremely ignorant sounding for someone who’s lived in Japan 40+ years
@roninmercllc@ninjanuity@harukaawake Unironically the Japanese experience with the west during these times was very similar to the Native American’s experience.
@StupidRiceball@bunburyoudoujp I was eating in a cafe in yakushima and the owner had a giant poster of Ken Watanabe from the last samurai hanging on the wall.
