ちょっとソート Chotto Thought

a very eye-opening thing happened to me

how do you know what you’re seeing is real…? ;)

were you productive today?

って思いません？

i’m going to be talking about one of the biggest figures and tradition of Christmas, Santa Claus. honestly, i learned a lot of new things from this episode

a little serious episode that i’m excited but nervous to put it out to the world! freedom of speech is something people in America are very proud of and value. as important as it is, i don’t think we can draw a definite line of what freedom of speech isn’t, and whether if any of us really have that “freedom of speech”

a genuine question I had last week

most of the time, im glad i’m Japanese, and i’m even more grateful that i can say that. also i’m going to talk about comparing different countries and why that’s not necessarily giving us an accurate picture of the world.

I’ve compiled a list of different age expectations and limitations that are set in various countries.

sense of belonging, i feel like, is something pretty much everyone i know longs for. but is that our goal? should it be our goal?

Having spent my college life in one of the most vocal schools in the country, I’m pretty used to seeing protests. This episode may be inconclusive, but I’m throwing an important question here: “what has the purpose of protests become?” It feels to me that a lot of us are protesting for the sake of protesting and not really clarifying the desired outcomes at times.

Throughout the years, I was taught to be optimistic and was ingrained the idea that being pessimistic was inherently “bad”. Is that always true? I’m going to be talking about these two characteristics, toxic positivity, and how I’ve been trying to find the balance in between

End of the year slump, post-break slump, whatever you call it, lack of motivation hits different when it’s in the winter.

Football (or soccer if you’re American) is the sport of the season this year, at least if you’re not in the states. I’ll be talking a bit about the FIFA World Cup and its history.

Spending time by yourself, especially eating, going somewhere by yourself, might not be for everyone. But I just want to say here that it’s pretty amazing.

Thanksgiving is coming up. ってかそれってなんやねん

one of my guilty pleasures include shopping. these days, i’ve been more conscious about where i shop my clothes at, but it’s not always perfect. in this episode, i’ll be talking about a resource i’ve found recently about clothing brands.

who’s considered a good leader? why are there limited traits that resemble a “leader”? my rant continues.

Confronting someone is almost always hard. What if they take things wrong? What if the relationship between us change dramatically? Even though it is something crucial and difficult, we don’t necessarily learn how to go about it at school.

今回は全部日本語です！

i grew up saying this phrase in Japanese a lot, so adjusting myself to not use it, especially at work, has been a bit of a learning curve.

Now a days, everyone seems to be talking about Twitter and its acquisition. I don’t know if I have an opinion on that, but I do have a question about the social media platform in general.

I switched my dentist recently, and I’m glad that I did
