John I hope you lucked out and did not get a copyright strike. Sometimes when itβs live like this they do not ding you. This was an amazing live streamed. Iβm trying very hard to find a way to visit Tokyo. Iβm a quadriplegic in a power wheelchair and accessibility with all my equipment needed is what is holding me back. Iβm doing much investigating on how I can make this happen. I love how you present Tokyo great job. Have a great week ahead. Say hi to your wife and son for me.
I've been on bikes my entire life, obviously not whilst sleeping and eating, and after watching your bike trip I was impressed that you had the confidence to do that considering you had just passed your test. I did laugh when you fell over but not in spite as we've all done that at some point. Making light of it stops you losing confidence and just shrugging it off. Just wish you didn't edit such short videos. Could easily be twice as long.
Elon Musk has allowed free speech on Twitter. Zuckerburg censors free speech and has in the past allowed government intervention on his platforms violating the First Amendment. Musk is a hero, Zuckerburg is a government shill. Threads will be another way for our government to control our speech. Love your vids! Even if you support an un-American social media company.
I was there today but left about 30 minutes after it was supposed to have started, since nothing had happened and no one seemed to know what was going on. Doesn't look like I missed much, honestly π
You could have made a banner and folded it up and carried it and pulled it out when you were walking behind the parade "parade brought to you by Only in Japan "
Oh, man! Watching you eating the chicken…mukbang at its best! That was so much fun! I love your genuine excitement at these types of events…it comes through the screen! Thank you for another fun-filled live from Tokyo. Can't wait for Part 2 of the Motorcycle Adventure. π PS: did it ever downpour?
Even though we have always had permanent rubbish bins in the town centres some get overfilled not emptied some dont use them throw rubbish on the pavement,i always took ours back home with me.
People here in england would not que up like that,a woman was once moaning about waiting in a sm,all que in a supermarket ,i told her were lucky to be able to que up to pay for food as many are dying from starvation.Bloody right people should be more grateful for what they have.
Suckerberg is a clown and a false information machine, he regurgitates the lies the governments WHO CGC WEF want him to spin – he blocks any truth they donβt want.

It looks nice. It has been hot and we have had thunder storms nearly every day for the past week so I would not mind the weather there too much.
That was funny John…the band did the Disney hit list out of nowhere.

If you have a kappa to do a bow the water in its head bowl it loses its power and it has to help you out. That's what I heard about the kappa Yokai.
