WHAT'S HAPPENING IN JAPAN SHOULD BE STUDIED.
Japan's jobless rate came in at 2.5%, missing the 2.4% expected by just 0.1 points.
If you look at the number that's a very small miss but for Japan it is not.
To count as unemployed in Japan, you have to be not working, actively job hunting in the past week, and ready to start immediately.
Anyone who gave up looking doesn't even show up in this number.
Japan's labor force itself has been shrinking.
In July, it dropped by 240,000 people to an 11-month low, and the share of the population working or looking for work fell from 64.4% to 64.1%.
In August, the picture shifted.
Employment rose by 300,000 people, and the number of unemployed rose by 100,000 people. More people came back into the job market, and not all of them found work right away.
In other words, unemployment had stayed low mostly because fewer people were in the workforce to begin with, not because jobs were plentiful. Now that more people are returning to look for work, the cracks are starting to show.
The jobs to applicants ratio was at 1.18 in July, and it's still at 1.18 in August, unchanged for 3 straight months. That means there are more job openings than people applying.
That's a labor market that's supposed to be too tight for unemployment to rise at all.
So a miss like this, even a small one, is a signal.
If unemployment ticks up in a country that structurally doesn't have enough workers, real hiring demand is cooling.
Combine that with the Bond market crisis, weakening currency and the unwanted inflation. You can understand the seriousness of situation and how bad Japan is stuck.

“When in Rome, do as the Romans do.”
Every country has customs, rules, and things outsiders are expected to learn. Japan is not asking for something unusual. Japan is asking you to do what people have always done
when they enter someone else's society:
observe, learn, adapt.

Solution To Heart attack
Save someone's life by sharing
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The video claims patting the inner elbow is a "solution" or self-salvation for heart attack based on unproven TCM ideas, but cardiologists and fact-checks confirm no scientific evidence supports this and it can dangerously delay emergency care.

欧州は技術はあったが核は使わなかった。
アメリカは核兵器で人間を焼いてしまった。
日本人を。
わけのわからない異教徒だし異人種だからどうでもよかった。
しかも朝の通勤通学時間に、一般人だらけの街に2発も落として焼き尽くした。
躊躇はなかった。
あの後さらに淡々とデータ収集した。しかも長期間だった。治療はしなかった。
まともな精神の医者や科学者なら気が狂う。
アメリカ人は表では言わないけど原爆のことは凄く後悔してるから、日本人に会うといまだに贖罪感丸出しで特別扱いしてくる。私にはわかってる。
住んでた時もそうだった。
でもそんな同情を今更されても困る。
私は性格が悪いから、国際法の授業でも、比較政治の授業でも、政治哲学の授業でも、アメリカ人白人生徒や欧州人生徒や教員相手に原爆被害の実態や数を淡々と話してやった。
日本人から話されてショックで無言な人が沢山いた。
議論になったこともあった。
30年前はまだあれは正しかったと真顔でいう人だらけだった。
意外だけど、韓国や中国やロシアやインドやパキスタンやペルーやアフガニスタンやトルコやケニアやアルメニアやウズベキスタンやベトナムやメキシコの人は同情していた。
やはり皆ひどかったと知っていた。中国人も一般の人は日本人に同情心がある人も沢山いる。
ロードオブザリングの指輪は核兵器の比喩だけど、あの話はイギリス人が書いた。
あの話にはトールキンが戦場で見た光景も比喩としてでてくる。
毒ガスや機関銃や戦車の恐怖、遠くに見える炎とか。
トールキンは家族の代わりだった友達が戦死した。
あれはアメリカから出てきた話ではない。
AIは多分原爆のようなものになる。
リアルなスカイネット。
ジェームズ・キャメロンはターミネーターで描いていた。
スカイネットの恐怖を。
あの映画は最初低予算のB級作品で作るのが大変で、主役は英語が訛りまくったオーストリア人のシュワルツェネッガーだし、話は陰惨だし、ヒロインは不細工だし、全くアメリカ的ではない話だった。
しかも80年代のアメリカで。軽薄でちゃらちゃらしていた時代にあの暗い話。
ターミネーター2の原爆描写はアメリカ映画の中でも核の恐ろしさをきちんと描いていて貴重だった。あれは珍しい。
キャメロンは原爆にも詳しくて次の映画は原爆の話らしい。
あの人は感覚がアメリカ的じゃない。鋭い人だ。
鋭い人が作った映画や文学は未来を予測する。
だからスカイネットの暴走は起きる。
パラメータの間違いか、インプットの質の低さによる間違いか、プログラムの暴走か、どれかはわからない。
ただ間違いは起きると思う。

インドに6年住んで、日本人に一番伝えたいこと。
会社休んでも会社は回る
メールすぐ返さなくても世界は終わらない
予定狂ってもなんとかなる
ちょっと人に迷惑かけても生きていける
仕事がうまくいかなくても飯はうまい
日本人はもっと
「まあええか」
を輸入した方がいい。
カレーより先に🇮🇳

China’s defense minister just told the world to “suppress the resurgence of historical dregs.”
He never said Japan. Everyone in the room knew he meant Japan.
At the Xiangshan Forum today, Dong Jun urged countries to stay “highly vigilant against all latent manifestations of hegemony, militarism and historical revisionism” and not “turn a blind eye.” The target was PM Takaichi’s 2025 remark that Chinese force against Taiwan could trigger Japan’s Self-Defense Forces.
Official Japan was not invited. A former Japanese prime minister who attended publicly called on Takaichi to retract it.
Chinese coast guard ships now run routine “law enforcement” patrols around the Senkakus and east of Taiwan. PLA vessels have fired live rounds inside waters Japan claims as its EEZ. China-Russia bombers fly joint patrols near Japanese airspace.
He warned the world about Japanese militarism at a forum Tokyo wasn’t invited to, one week before Xi meets Trump, while running the most assertive military posture in the region in decades.

Since they’ve secured 10 BRICS countries and ASEAN, they’ve effectively taken control of Taiwan via the northern route. Next up is, of course, Okinawa. That’s why the U.S. is pulling out.

Prime Minister Takaichi and her lover, Osaka Governor Yoshimura, have arrived in Okinawa… and from there, they’re pouring 300 billion yen of taxpayers’ money into it. I’m sick of it.

🚨BREAKING:🚨CHINESE PRESIDENT XI REVEALS TO PRESIDENT TRUMP LIST OF DEMOCRAT POLITICIANS, WOKE GENERALS WHO TOLD HIM TO "IGNORE" WHAT TRUMP SAYS, GO THROUGH THEM FOR ALL FOREIGN POLICY MATTERS IN SECRET BACK CHANNEL - In his HIGH STAKES overseas trip to China, President Trump has reportedly worked out a deal to establish friendlier relations with Chinese President Xi and his country wherein Xi is said to have given up A MASSIVE LIST OF TOP US POLITICIANS AND GENERALS who have been betraying our country by undermining the foreign policy of the Trump administration with China in exchange for our President agreeing to ease economic sanctions on the communist country. Democrat Senators Mark Kelly of Arizona, Elissa Slotkin of Michigan, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and former WOKE Generals Mark Milley, James Mattis and John Kelly from President Trump's first term in office are said to be KEY PLAYERS on this TREASONOUS list, allegedly telling their counterparts in the Chinese government to effectively IGNORE the US Commander in Chief and his administration and to instead negotiate all US/China policy matters with them through TOP SECRET BACK CHANNELS. They allegedly told Xi and his government that this is necessary because President Trump is "unstable" and "a threat to the global order" and that they would pursue more "China friendly policies" with The Chinese Communist Party in exchange for their own financial benefit. In other words, these TURNCOATS engaged in yet another COUP ATTEMPT against the duly elected President of The United States, working with a hostile foreign government. Do YOU agree with President Trump that these SCUM are truly THE ENEMY WITHIN? 👊🏻🔥🇺🇸
