Something incredible is happening on reddit. I'm tempted to say these people have way too much time, but this is legit amazing. #RecursionFTW
It keeps going!
And going...
And going...
And going!
Oh lord, there are multiple branches!
Somebody's cat got involved...
Somebody tried (and failed) to close the loop...
And somebody tried to chart out all the branches...
Here is an interactive web app that offers a definitive tree of all the branches. You can click on each image to link through to the original reddit post for that image.

A thread of images from a Japanese illustrated history of America from 1861.

Here is George Washington (with bow and arrow) pictured alongside the Goddess of America. 1/
Here is Christopher Columbus (seated at center) reporting his discovery of America to Queen Isabella of Spain.

So far, kinda normal, but wait for it.... 2/
Now it's the American Revolution. Here is George Washington defending his wife "Carol" from a British official named "Asura" (same characters as the Buddhist deity). 3/

As feared the Japanese government is forcing AirBnB to cancel tens of thousands of fully booked and paid reservations. This is the worst possible way the government could have dealt with this issue. 1/
The law was only passed in March, but a hard June 15 deadline gave hosts only a few months to get fully licensed and registered before reservations would start getting canceled. 2/
The registration process is incredibly onerous, requiring over a *dozen* official documents from multiple government agencies, several of which are by law not available to foreigners, even if they own homes in Japan. 3/

A thread of Chinese internet nicknames for NBA players.

China is crazy for the NBA, but official sources use boring phonetic transcriptions, failing to take advantage of Chinese characters having both sound and meaning. Chinese netizens have "improved" on these official names.
Lebron James - 小皇帝 "The Little Emperor"

A play on the English "King James" that is also a slang term for a "spoiled only child" under China's "One Child Policy"

Used more when Lebron was young but now mostly by Lebron haters. His fans prefer 詹皇 (Zhan Wang or "King James").
Russell Westbrook - 威少 "Wei Dude"

Russ's phonetic name in Chinese (衛斯特布魯克 wei si te bu lu ke) is really long so they shortened it to "Wei Dude."

They also upgraded the "wei" from "guarding" (衛) to "dominating" (威).

People who spend too much time on airplanes,

What are the literal, actual things that made your traveling easier?

Asking for my holiday list.
A few things that I don't travel without:
Silk eye-mask
Pencil bag filled with computer cords, international adaptors, and plugs
MILK cosmetics face oil and solid moisturizers
Weird solid Egyptian moisturizer
ZOMIG for migraine
Cashmere throw
Disposable toothbrushes
Audiobooks
It may be evil but I love my Kindle Fire.

OMG she showed up and she's under oath.

They are going full kamikaze here.....
She is completely opened up to perjury charges now.....
I spent a week and a half confident Ford & her lawyers wouldn't put themselves in this position, but here we are.

They've walked into a trap.

NOBODY is going to be allowed to try this bullshit against an innocent man ever again.

Keep watching.

Should I ramble about Yoshida Shin, or at least what he's done? 🤔
I'll take Qu and Siliva's likes as a Yes. Okay, let's see.
This is Yoshida Shin himself. Pretty average guy. Pretty unsuspecting. Can't talk much on his early work, as it goes back to some really generic 90s anime.

Trumpalago: The Deepest State Continues...
Ivanka stabbed the knife into the gaps between her fingers, her hand a blur as she moved left to right then right to left. The tattooed man rubbed his chin, his eyes transfixed.
"Satisfied?" she asked.
He nodded.
"So we have a deal."
"20 of my best men."
"Good."
Sarah Sanders typed away on her laptop as Hope Hicks lit a cigar. "Are you gettin' all this, Sarah?" "Yes ma'am." "Good."
Hope was fed up. This whole operation, since day one, had been a complete clusterfuck. Shit was going to change, if she had to make heads roll.
