JR East says it will begin introducing one-person operation trains on major Tokyo metropolitan lines from next spring. The main reason is staff shortages. Conductors, chiefly responsible for announcements and door operation, will be re-assigned. nhk.or.jp/shutoken-news/2024…

Fish & chips with a beer in London at £36 (¥7,000) is causing shrieks online. London is certainly expensive but that seems an outlier. A beer and that plate would usually be more like £20-26 (¥4-5,000 yen). Malins in Tokyo charges ¥2-2,500 and ¥800 for an Asahi.

Years ago a Aussie mate of mine was dating a Japanese girl. At McDonalds one day in Osaka he ordered a hamburger but without pickles or onions. She broke up with him saying he should accept things as they are presented to him 😀

The woman does get support from respondents saying she's well rid of a man who might have control issues. If she had corrected her technique, they speculate he would have found something else to criticize.

Kemi Badenoch is the new leader of the Conservative Party in Britain. You'd often see her name in katakana as ケミ・バデノック but it looks like news outlets are now mostly going with ケミ・ベイデノック, which is closer to how her name is pronounced in the UK.
