While those of you living in Japan may take the combini for granted, to the rest of the world Japanese combinis are nothing short of amazing and light years ahead of the rest of the world.

I would hate to see a foreign company who may not care as much about quality take over.

That said, Couche-Tard seems slightly better than some of the others. But I would still be concerned about quality.

No.

It will not.

Having secured around 29% of the vote, it would need a coalition partner to govern but the other parties have said they are not interested.

That's because the other parties are smart.

There's an old saying, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."

In other words, pay now or pay much, much more later.

What a snowflake.

Good for Europe!

Left or right, if he is guilty, punish him.

The only thing stopping Boeing is its board of directors.

Now what about the pensions?

But rule of law for who? Seems not for the rich.

You do know, Banthu, that everyone can read the news.

The Kursk incursion is doing just fine.

Russian has now lost 3 major ammunition dumps this past week. Oh and another airbase.

The Povrosk offensive has stalled.

And Russia continually kills civilians and then loots everything in sight.

Facts are not accusations. It's a documented fact.

The Federalist Papers (the original ones written by the founders) is very enlightening and a recommended read for everyone no matter who you are or where you live.

It explains in great detail why the founders, in their own words, chose the systems and structures they did.

What happened? Corporations are what happened. Big money moved in and exploited it.

All it did was amplify what was already present in people.

Much like the Japanese saying, "sake-wa-hon-shin-wo-arawasu", the Internet has provided the same thing.

That TV screen needs an adjustment, LOL

Never mind the TV, WoodyLee, that wiring breaks every fire safety rule on earth. :)

He supports deportation? Like that previous bipartisan immigration bill he urged the GOP block after they had agreed to it?

Of course it isn't. And the law says so.

Obvious attempted insurrection is obvious threat to democracy which is obvious to everyone but the enemies of the U.S.

The man who incited an insurrection against the United State government and is a 34 times convicted felon, says what?

Strangerland

Maybe if he stopped calling for violence and stoking the anger and aggression, people wouldn't be responding with the same.

Exactly.

It's time to stop the Trump hate and return to civil discourse.

The man who started an insurrection deserves nothing of the kind.

There's that stochastic terrorism I come to expect from the the GOP.

Meanwhile, the woman who started it all is having very serious regrets.

Newsguard, a media watchdog that monitors for misinformation online, found that Lee had been among the first people to publish a post to social media about the rumor, screenshots of which circulated online.

Lee said she pulled her daughter out of school and is now worried about her safety with so much attention on her family. She is also concerned for the safety of the Haitian community, which she said she did not intend to villainize en masse.

Exactly, John-san. You take it ALL with a grain of salt.

Gene is exactly right. The only exception being an unknown engineering fault by the mfg.

Good for them!

I will never forget that day. Nor the images of people jumping to their death and the thousands of people covered in ash on the streets below who were watching it all firsthand.

She wiped the floor with him.

Or maybe traffic engineers and departments could do their jobs instead of the rest of us doing it for them?

Cry us a river, Russia.

Dang autocorrect again.
