YuyoDrift 1540 Posted July 31, 2019 @secret_no_03 This is correct. Brazil has had the highest concentration of Japanese immigrants in all of the world for some time. I did some digging a while back cuz I found out that I'm either 1/5 Japanese or Chinese on my mom's side. Apparently Mexico had a large migration of Japanese and Chinese immigrants at some point, and most of central Mexico eventually became mixed race in some way (mom is from there too). If you know the singer Ana Gabriel (1/2 chinese), then you can pretty much guess what my mom actually looks like, as she's been asked on the street if she was related to her lol. 1 1 secret_no_03 and Gesu reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For the longest time the migrant and immigrant, ie the blue collar jobs in Japan were done by Brazilian immigrants until they decided on needing an influx of foreign workers for next year's Olympics.

At least mine has the propensity to. I thought I was busy until life kicked me in the gonads so hard I didn't have time to worry or think. I just had time to do. I was in survival mode then. Before I knew it, I went two years without thinking about relationships in the most neutral zen state of mind ever and because of that I stumbled into my current relationship. By that point, I didn't even want it. It was hell, but it was also tranquil. I don't suggest you put yourself through hell to suppress your feelings, but just beware of where your mind wanders when it goes off. It can come back with thoughts and feelings you don't need and aren't prepared for. 1 itsukoii reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zeus 7997 Posted August 5, 2019 I'm going through my Facebook nuking any trace of my thoughts because I'm not in the business of digital archaeologists of the future digging through my records because they have a bone to pick with me, and I'm surprised by how much the ancient contents of my news feed are a graveyard of dead links. Some of the links don't even indicate what the content originally was, and there are some links that look live and lead nowhere. It is interesting how we take for granted that things stay around on the internet, but clearly only certain things stay around. It will be troubling in the future to go back and find news articles about events that are happening today if companies can purge articles from their website once they figure they aren't making enough money off of it. 1 2 YuyoDrift, Gesu and Komorebi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SubThatSong 75 Posted August 5, 2019 It's actually been a year now since I moved to live alone. I can't believe how time flies. Or how comfortable I am being alone and dedicating myself to my hobby. Maybe I'm meant to be alone? Am I going to be alone forever? Could there possibly be someone I could be fully comfortable with that would understand my quirks? Do I even want that? How am I so easily over a ten year long relationship that even ended in me being the one that was dumped out of the blue? I'm such an asshole for ghosting people who tried to start real relationships with me. 1 nullmoon reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
