  • I doubt they would have cancelled the visa. Immigration doesn't have access to your medical records. It is more likely that they may not have renewed her working visa if she was currently unemployed. Unfortunate but you have to follow the rules of the visa.

  • So why don't you read it on the platform (lemmy) it is hosted, and therefore best viewed on?

  • Thanks for being so patient with me. I wasn't aware of the term liminal spaces, but looked into it. I guess I don't have those feelings, but understand that some (many) people do.

    If anyone else stumbles across this, I found this page insightful.

  • Thanks for the insight. I think the back wall is actually glass, as you can see there is a door on the far right. It is pretty common to have an outdoor open air bathing section at hot springs, so I guess that is what is there.

    I guess if one has never been to a hot spring or bathhouse before then this image could appear odd.

  • Perhaps eyes popping in disbelief? I didn't get it either.

  • I wouldn't do that. It sounds like a full time job, of which I assume you already have. To me it would feel weird, like a power imbalance.

    What happens when you don't have time or energy to complete your tasks. Will he kick you out? Is your name on the lease?

    Organising clothes and belongings is something I'd only do for family.

    But, you know your roommate best, so do what you feel is right.

    Maybe you can do a one month trial run?

  • Worryingly, examination of those recently deceased has found high levels of dihydrogen monoxide in their bodies, leading scientists to ponder whether every person who knowingly or unknowingly consumes this chemical will actually one day die.

  • Here in Japan, travel agents are still around. The brick and mortar ones have actually branched out to offer their services online, too.

    I assume they mostly survive on people who want to book a package tour, which are insanely popular here.

    Some of them will now charge a consultation fee whether you buy something or not, so you can see how the industry is hurting.

    Although I'm not a boomer, I did use one last year as they are great for just showing you all the options in a very clear way. With just an hour to spare to book a family trip, it was the way to go (for me at least).

    I do think that next time I will use them to consult, but then book online to avoid their fee. Also, it seems that booking though the agent makes the ticket less flexible (the airline will lock out some parts of their website and tell you to have the agent do the thing which you wanted to)

    So, yeah, it'll be just like shopping. Go to the store to look and get info, then buy online to save money.

  • It would except for the fact that shoe sizes here, from babies to adults are only sized in centimetres. If there are international sizes printed on the shoes, they have no meaning to residents in Japan. Check the tag inside your shoes; If they have international sizes printed on them, you'll see Japan's is in centimetres, and may have EE (or more Es) next to it to denote width. If there is nothing, then they are standard width.

    Children's clothing is also sized in centimetres. Makes things really simple.

  • No trash cans in the parks around here. Train stations tend to only have trash cans on the platforms, not inside the station (just my experience, not definitive). You just learn to carry your trash with you until you find somewhere to dispose of it. I don't see the big deal. If you do buy something from a street vendor say in a park or at a festival, they will provide a way to dispose of it. Also, it is not so common to eat whilst walking, so it reduces the problem considerably.

  • Hey be careful there. The heat may also melt the glue holding all the panels together lol

  • Bundle, flipboard, NHK News

  • Thanks so much. You are fantastic!

  • Silly question, but have you already set up family sharing? Are you able to access other services included in the subscription!

  • It finally lets you select the display language! Hurray! Scrolling is still choppy AF though. It's basically the same as the mobile app, which isn't saying much.
