Edo Kiriko: Shimmering Art for Your Table
Edo kiriko glassware is one of Japan’s most coveted crafts, prized for its complexity and beauty — here's where to buy it.

#Japan 🇯🇵 finally got their first female PM! Unfortunately, I don’t like most of her far-right political views, such as opposition to same-sex marriage, desire to amend Japan’s pacifist constitution, support for anti-immigration policies, and downplaying of Japanese war crimes.

As #Japan #LNG imports peak, #China’s now dominates #naturalgas imports.

Figured it was finally time to watch Audition (オーディション, 1999) today. Always meant to.

Audition (1999)
Seven years after the death of his wife, widower Shigeharu seeks advice on how to find a new wife from a colleague. Taking advantage of their position as a film company, they stage an audition. Interviewing a series of women, Shigeharu is enchanted by the quiet Asami. But soon things take a twisted turn as Asami isn’t what she seems to be.

#Japan #Alte Menschen hinter Gittern

Weltspiegel: Japan: Senioren in Gefängnissen, zwischen Pflege und Haft - hier anschauen
Japan gilt als das Land mit dem höchsten Anteil an Senioren im Alter von 65 Jahren oder älter. Das zeigt sich auch in den Gefängnissen. Immer mehr alte Menschen sind hinter Gittern. Darunter auch viele Pflegebedürftige zwischen 70 und 90 Jahren. Aber die Haftanstalten richten sich auf Bedürfnisse älterer Insassen ein. Es wird Krankengymnastik und Essen für Zahnlose geboten, an Demenz erkrankte Häftlinge erhalten Gedächtnistraining. Angeblich begehen Senioren mitunter absichtlich Straft…

Japan sweats through hottest July on record
Japan sweltered through its hottest July since records began in 1898, the weather agency has reported, warning of further "severe heat" in the month ahead.

Brutal 😢 🤦‍♂️
I can’t help but think of the weird coincidence of this and Pink Floyd’s lyrical, (racist) connection of Japanese manufacturing/loss of English manufacturing, and Maggie Thatcher and the Falklands war, and the promise of post WWII prosperity… etc etc in their 1983 song The Post War Dream. It’s a song worth seeking out. Seems England has reached new depths of regressiveness, and now Japan is joining in.

Congratulations to Japan on electing your first female leader!
I find this incredibly ironic… because Japan is often portrayed, with reason, as a place with deep misogynistic traditions/a highly patriarchal society that carries on to this day…
But here they are, finally breaking the government’s glass ceiling… and Canada? The USA? Many European countries?
A reminder not to throw stones in glass houses!

The top hot spots in Tokyo: Revealing the impact of climate change through data fusion
Global climate change is making temperatures hotter, particularly in densely populated cities, which can adversely affect the health of residents. While mitigation efforts are urgent, it is hard for urban planners to identify exactly where to target as accurate, long-term climate records created over fine spatial scales have been unavailable.
