The vast new ‘whaling ship’ that Japan hopes will revive a shrinking industry

In the new vessel, the whaling industry envisions an age of prosperity and rising demand, ultimately guaranteeing the future of the most controversial ingredient in Japan’s culinary repertoire

The new vessel’s range of 13,000km is fuelling suspicion that,
five years after Japan abandoned its controversial “scientific” hunts in the Southern Ocean and resumed commercial whaling along its own coastline,
Japan is again preparing to slaughter the mammals far from its own shores.

@cdarwin That's the kind of ship you could watch explode and think, "Am I clapping loudly enough?"

Time Magazine's Trump interviews present a dictator-in-waiting, and are important documents for everyone right now.

Read it all. This is as clear a warning as you'll see of what's to come.

(It's too bad, however, that the magazine "lightly edited" the transcripts -- this means the editors cleaned up his notorious word salad, giving a false impression of sorts.)

@ScriptFanix I was thinking that, too, but it doesn't seem like we're there yet, as a species. But in general, I fully agree.

You should use your feet to pick things up because:

  • It helps keep you limber.
  • Spying aliens will think you're more formidable than their initial reconnaissance suggested.

Chess Grandmaster Anna Muzychuk refuses to play in Saudi Arabia and says: "In a few days, I will lose two world titles, back to back." Because I decided not to go to Saudi Arabia. I refuse to play by special rules, to wear abaya, to be accompanied by a man so I can leave the hotel, so I don't feel like a second class person.

"I will follow my principles and not compete in the World Fast Chess and Blitz Championship where in just 5 days I could have won more money than dozens of other tournaments combined." This is all very nasty but the sad part is no one seems to care. Bitter feelings but can't go back. "

I don't know whether to laugh at the absurdity of people who fear Satan or cry because they still exist in 2024.

@Threadbane That's really interesting. I never thought of it that way.

Gustodon,
@Gustodon@mas.to avatar

@jztusk That's interesting, too. But just to walk through it, if Christians fear Satan and tell stories about the threats he poses, surely there must be some expectation that God could destroy Satan if he wanted to. I'm having trouble finding that. It seems like, ultimately, Satan will be trapped in Hell. Why not destroyed?

(Just curious about your opinion. I have no supernatural beliefs.)

Now I turn on the light, I used to be able to sleep at night.

Plug in to my TV, hey I'm used to the lies they're telling me." -- The Fixx, 'Driven Out,' 1989

@emptywheel Kaitlan Collins is a performer; her commitment to journalistic integrity is non-existent.
