In #Norway, there is still a gap between the intelligentsia, who support the #EU, and ordinary people, who are strongly opposed to it. Typically, a journalist will portray #Brexit as a big mistake, while the comment section tells the journalist and the EU to go ***k themselves. Norway is in the #EEA, essentially a partial EU membership. We must implement directives but have no EU seat. Many people feel our politicians betrayed us by joining it, and think it's even worse than an EU membership.
#MayThe4th “Star Wars - fan page” http://bookw.it/95YH5G
Every book about Star Wars is here!
“The franchise began in 1977 with the release of the film Star Wars (subtitled Episode IV: A New Hope in 1981[2][3]), which became a worldwide pop culture phenomenon. It was followed by the similarly successful sequels The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Return of the Jedi (1983); these three films constitute the original Star Wars trilogy.”
I showed all the Star Wars to my sons as liberal education. Because why not. There are SW codes hidden everywhere in culture and communication. They should know what means May the 4th be with you.
I love so much Snape's speaking manner. THAT creates his unforgettable character.
Today is Star Wars day I know but this spring vacation week (in Japan) I have been watching whole Harry Potter series every night and today was 5. Very enjoyed🎆
What's the best piece of writing in English to explain Mastodon to the uninitiated?
(Please boost)
マストドン次のアップデートから言語でフィルターできるようになる件、殆ど日本語対応だろうと考えざるを得ない。これで一層連合の乖離が進むのかな。
巨大な日本のインスタンスでは、ジニーのハラスメント案件からマストドン管理者同士のパワーゲームまで発展してる件は話題になってるんだろうか。それとも日本語インスタンスの外の話だから知らない、もしくは知ってても関係ないと思ってる?
Boosted BBC's toot, mentioned Japan's ultra-luxurious train, really made me think about Snowpiecer's train and I feel I might be troubled by a nightmare of the image of oppressed people packed its backmost wagon with green square food...
ジニーの件はまだもめてるのか。
どの日本人向けインスタンスもプライバシーポリシーを原文の英語表記のまま運用しているところがほとんどだけど、日本語に翻訳されたプライバシーポリシーのPRが出されている。

BTW my hamster is sick. but he is now quite old as a hamster. I have to accept it.
when you feel to make a haiku, please include a seasonal word in it. If not, it is called Senryu, not haiku. OK?
well it is time to clean my hamster cage.
I visited duolingo yesterday but disappointed since from Jp only English is available. I want to learn European Portuguese but looks it isn't there...is it?
インスタンス管理者であろうがなかろうが、ハラスメントはサスペンド、というドラマがあった模様。色々考えさせられる。日本ではこういう対応はできないだろうな、と悲しく思う。
Friday #cocktailhour #recipe: Dark and Stormy
4 cl spiced rum
10 cl ginger beer
1 cl lime juice
lime slice to garnish
Add a few ice cubes to your glass; squeeze a lime wedge over the ice. Pour the ginger beer over the ice.
I prefer a strongly spiced ginger beer like Fentimans or Fever Tree.
Gently pour the rum into the glass. This is where you get the color gradation.
Garnish with a lime slice. Feel smug you've made such an attractive drink. (Stir before drinking.)
