Jeg kan sagtens se formålet med at kirken giver lokalsamfundet mulighed for at mødes i lokaler som giver anledning til rolig eftertanke, og samhørighed. Jeg ville ønske at der var et mere moderne alternativ.

Der hvor filmen knækker for mig er at ordføreren skal være en præst som forkynder Guds budskab. Hvis Gud vil mig noget, så kan han sende mig en e-mail. Jeg behøver ikke præstens fortolkning af hvad han/hun tror at have forstået.

Det pisser mig også af at kirken som den eneste grundejer i landet har lov til at lave veto mod udsigten til vindmøller på andre folks grunde.

Jeg synes desuden at ritualerne med at hælde vand i hovedet af spædbørn og servere slatne kiks og doven portvin til mindreårige konfirmander er meget ude af trit med nutiden.

Derfor har jeg meldt mig ud af kirken.

Honestly, the bamboo "forest" isn't worth a visit. I wonder if they post this news just to attract more tourists. The same story has been posted year after year.

It's just a place where someone once planted a lot of bamboo thinking they'd need it as a ressource. They didn't need it so they just left it there.

It dates back about a thousand years, so I guess it's "natural" now, but it's basically the remains of a human made plantation, albeit old.

The famous path through it is about a hundred meters long and a great spot to take that photo. I didn't feel immersed in the forest at all, because the entry and exit is visible through the entire "attraction".

There's a nice temple with an impressive garden close by and some random rich rock star dude also build a mansion with a garden on top of the mountain next to the forest, and that's it.

The whole thing felt like the kind of place that you only want to go if you're a tourist with nothing better to do.

Kyoto is still worth visiting as a whole. The thousand gates on mt. Inari is a much better use of your time.

Kirken er et fordyrende og forkludrende mellemled mellem de troende og Gud.

Jeg har ikke problemer med kristendommen. Jeg har problemer med kirken. De skal ikke have ret til at bestemme noget som helst over de danskere som ikke frivilligt er medlem af deres klub.

The G is silent in English words starting with gn. Gnarly gnats is pronounced narly nats.

There's not a lot of those words anyway

Gnu and gnome are exceptions only when used to describe the software. The gnu animal and the mythical gnome creature are pronounced with silent gs.

I know it's completely off-topic, but anyway. No, I'm fine with the rake. That's what's makes it funny.

It's the drawing of the skater that is too good, and that doesn't add up with the other details being wrong. Someone who can draw a skater that good wouldn't make the other things that wrong or even random.

The rake is drawn as doing a frontside shove-it, popped from mid-air and failing because of gravity suddenly changing in the middle of the sequence. The skater is "obviously" doing a varial heelflip instead of a frontside shove-it.

So that's the clue to why I thought it was drawn off an actual picture. That the background is also a copy of the original only reaffirms my theory.

In hindsight I can also see that the skater is obviously Andrew Reynolds. The tuck and landing is his signature style.

The last picture in the meme always bothered me, because the sequence doesn't make any sense physically. (Popping the rake from mid air and doing the wrong flip and such)

So, I went on to find the sequence that I believe it was drawn from.

Japanese working culture is ... different.

https://metropolisjapan.com/resignation-agencies/

Tl:dr;

The top-cited reason for using resignation agencies, at 40.7%, was that companies refused to let them quit. Other reasons included fear of backlash if they resigned alone or their work environment discouraged employees from quitting independently.

I'm going with "no", because it's a shit product for the environment when you have batteries and electronics fitted into rubber. If the battery runs out, the electronic breaks or the rubber wears out, the entire product is likely to be discarded and burned together.

If you want to attach small lights to your shoes, go ahead. You can then also transfer the lights to your next pair of shoes, change the battery and repair or discard of everything separately.

It's mentioned in the article.

Makes sense. They buy guns because they're scared of people.
