Prime Minister Theresa May invited Trump just days after he took office in January 2017

I don’t know which is more depressing: that Donald Trump is still in office, or that Mrs May is.

I wonder how efficient this can be. What percentage of the energy consumed by the transmitter will arrive in the receiver? Particularly if the two aren’t within inches of each other.

I just do not understand what the 37 percent see in him.

Seems rather low pay.

I think I’ll just watch the highlights on TV.

Apparently the museum has a cafe where the customers sit on stools.

If they could prove that black holes emit Hawking radiation, that would be interesting. Regrettably it would be too tardy for the late physicist to get the Nobel prize.

So when GRR Martin brings our the last two books, David Benioff and Dan Weiss could sue him for copying their plot details!

Why am I not surprised?

The UK House of Commons Speaker (Bercow) has a cat called Order.

True!

4.5 hours to explosion and counting. What an amazing bit of science. Hope it all works.

Here we go again.

Nothing says blossom-time like a sea of blue tarps.

Not appealing to me -

Tape still the cheapest way for DATA backup.

I would be suprised. A terabyte usb drive is under 10000 yen, but it would take an awful lot of tape to hold that much data, methinks.

You know things are getting too far when you have to watch a commercial before the mirror shows you own reflection.

Lack of leg room coupled with the seat in front being reclined into my face.

when the mirror is used as a washstand mirror of a bathroom in the office, it becomes easier to manage the physical conditions of each employee

So they’re spying on me taking a leak? Jeez.

The man in the photo unfortunately seems to have very different sized arms.

Yuki. Apt name?

Not afraid of us seeing his short-comings.

Looks like the dummy on the scooter is about to be marmalised.

meet the new emperor on May 4

And May the 4th be with him.

Text on lens says f=18.3mm

Pretty useless if it doesn’t zoom at all, imho.

If Japan's so smart, how do you account for its work-life balance?

And this is in spite of Brexit. I wonder what WTO tariffs will be on beer exported to the EU in the event of a no-deal. Presumably 'small beer' to the lovers of London Pride.

A slippery slope indeed. And before you know it, a moderator will have deleted your upload.
