Trinity Sale Day 1 Reddit post is here.

So today in Japan Spirited Away was being rerun on TV on the Friday Roadshow Japanese program. To commemorate that, the Japanese official Studio Ghibli twitter let people ask them questions a few days ago and then they answered several of the questions today. I compiled all of the questions and answers into one post and thought it'd be worth sharing. I tried my best to translate with my abilities as I'm not fluent in Japanese, but I provided context for further things just in case. Links are provided to the original question and answer for every part by clicking on the Q or A section.

EDIT: I realized I missed a lot of questions for the Q&A so I have added them now. Everything before the "where was the most difficult scene to draw?" is new.

Q: Thank you for your many questions. Q: Is it true about the rumors that "Spirited Away" has an subsequent story about a phantom after, and that it was shown only in some movie theaters? Or is it just an urban legend?

A: It's an urban legend. Miyazaki: "At first, I was planning to start from Chihiro's house. Chihiro's room was a path for yokai, and she talked about going to a bathhouse with my mother. But I quit because it felt dull. So it would be interesting if such rumors were circulating!"

Q: Why did you decide on the title "Sen and Chihiro's Spirited Away"? (referring to the Japanese title of Spirited Away which is: Sen to Chihiro Kamikakushi) Were there any other candidates for the title?

A: At the stage of the completed proposal that was drafted on November 2, 1999, it was "Sen's Spirited Away". At some stage, the movie was titled "Sen and Chihiro's Spirited Away" because it was about Chihiro's story.

Q: What is the meaning of the mysterious Daruma-like rock in front of the tunnel?

A: The image board says "Stone person (actually a frog person)"...

Q: Do you have any plans to build that tunnel in Ghibli Park?

A: I asked Goro, who is building the acclaimed Ghibli Park under construction.

Goro said: "I'm making 'that tunnel' in 'that work'~ (laughs)"

*(Both question and answer in th

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

#John Doe

> "When you're always stuck in situations where there's no way to fight back... It starts messing with you. In here. You feel trapped. Angry. Detached from yourself. ...It sucks."

In a society where the strength of a person's supernatural Ability determines thier worth John was seemingly born a cripple, without any ability. To survive the violent pastimes of the more powerful John received martial arts training from his cripple father. But during middle school, his Ability manifested. After learning the ins and outs of his complex Ability: Aura Manipulation (which allows the user to sense the Ability aura of others as well as alter thier own) he took his school by storm climbing the hierarchy and easily becoming King, the publicly recognized most powerful student, he kept his position through violent beatings to anyone who defied him. Eventually one of his closest friends betrayed him, gathering all of his classmates to turn on him together and hope him see reason. After goading the mob into a fight John beat them all. As a result he was picked up by the authorities and exposed to mentally scarring readjustment classes.

Soon after he went to the prestigious private school, Wellston High. There he acted as a cripple still, intent on hiding his past. He even befriended the most powerful student there, Seraphina. However, those in power at the school didn't take well to his cocky behavior and attempted to humble the "cripple" to his place. The instance caused a chain of events that led to John taking over and establishing a new reign of terror over Wellston. Eventually, he was confronted and defeated by Seraphina, suspended and began a journey to fix his own flaws. Now he has returned to Wellston again his Ability known to the public and his anger better in check, John has since turned down his position as King and hopes to integrate into the school's social climate once again.

Feats marked as [Cripple] are preformed while John is trying to hide his Ability and power, and not fighting to his fullest.

Millî Mücadele yıllarında gösterdiği gayretle Anka­ra Hükümeti’nce takdirle karşılanan Bediüzzaman Said Nursi, Mustafa Kemal Paşa tara­fından ısrarla Ankara’ya çağrıldı. 7 Ka­sım 1922’de davete icabet eden Bediüz­zaman için iki gün sonra Büyük Millet Meclisi’nde resmî bir “Hoşamedi” töreni düzenlendi. Ancak Meclis onun gelişini kutlarken Bediüzzaman gördüğü tablo karşısında tam bir hayal kırıklığına uğ­rayacaktır. Özellikle milletvekillerinin Batı hayranlığı ve dinî hayatlarındaki zayıflık ziyadesiyle üzmüştür kendisini. Bunun üzerine düşünce ve eleştirilerini bir beyanname şeklinde kaleme alarak bunu hem milletvekillerine, hem de Mustafa Kemal’e gönderir.

Daha önce İngilizlere karşı yazdı­ğı Hutuvat-ı Sitte risalesiyle Mustafa Kemal’in takdirini kazanmıştı. Aynı şekilde Mustafa Kemal de vaktiyle Bediüzzaman’ın övgüsüne mazhar ol­muştu. Ancak birazdan Cumhurbaş­kanlığı Arşivi’nden temin ettiğimiz metnini okuyacağınız beyanname on­ları karşı karşıya getirdi. Sadece iki şahsı değil, onların nezdinde iki zih­niyeti ileride sonsuza kadar ayıracak olan ve Tarihçe-i Hayat’ta ufak tefek farklarla yer alan 23 Kasım 1922 ta­rihli bu önemli beyannameyi aşağıda görebilirsiniz.

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

It really does, I swear!

Az önce bulaşıkları kaldırırken inanılmaz bir şey oldu. Üç tane kavanoz yerlerinden oynadı, düştü ve havadayken birini sağ elimle, birini sol elimle diğerini de sol kolumun içiyle havada yakaladım. Reflekslerimin hala canlı olması beni sevindirdi.

Daha sonra içeriye bir Shao-Lin rahibi girdi. "Hımm" dedi, "Sen hangi okuldansın? Yılan ve Turna mı, Maymun okulu mu yoksa Kaplan ve Ejderha mı?" diye sordu. Ben de İTİKATTE EHL-İ SÜNNET VE'L CEMAAT, AMELDE DE HANEFİYİM ULAAAANNNNN diye bağırarak suratına kavanozlardan birini attım. Mutfakta ufak bir boğuşma gerçekleşti. Adama rendeyle saldırdım, spatula ile karşılık verdi. Sonra teknik değiştirerek Wing-tsuna geçtim, "Hımmm demek Ip-Man'ın öğrencisisin" dedi, Ben daha da sinirlendim, benim tek öğretmenim 2. Abdulhamid, o da olmazsa Nitche'dir" dedim. Shao-Lin rahibini ağır yaraladım ama kaçtı, ben de ufak tefek yerlerimden yaralandım. Neyse ailesiyle konuştuk, kan parası falan tatlıya bağladık.

Hej! Kreskis mi timante: Bruno en la mur’ proksimas:

Ĉiam mi lin aŭdas, lia voĉo min deprimas,

Ĉiu lia vorto falas kvazaŭ sabl’, ĉŝ, ĉŝ, ĉŝ

La klopodan povon oni ne estimas,

Famili’ suferas, sed li daŭre krimas,

Liajn profetaĵojn komprenus nur diabl’...

Aŭ ĉu de vi kapabl’?

Du metra alt', sur la dorso rat', *****

Se li vokas vin, ne venu sur strat',

Ĉion scias pri vi, por ke sonu kri’ (hej)

Promesitas kaj estos de mi

Al mi diris li ke mia pov'

Kreskos kvazaŭ beroj de vin'

“To understand is difficult; to act is easy.” -Sun Yat-sen

Hello everyone, my name is NothingHere, and I am the current moderation lead for the TNO submod, The Red Order: First Days of Eurasia. 100 years ago today, the Qing Empire saw the beginning of the Wuchang Uprising, an uprising which turned into a revolution, ending over 2,000 years of imperial rule in China. To celebrate such an important event in Chinese history, we shall be exploring the first year of gameplay for the Republic of China. Before that however, I first would like to thank our current China Team Lead, Offensive Orangutan, who will be giving you a tour of the Republic today. I would also like to thank our Writing Lead mmm for editing many pieces of writing you will see today, and finally the entire China Team for their contribution to this project as a whole. With that out of the way, here is Offensive Orangutan with the rest of the diary.

Hello, this is Offensive Orangutan. First off, welcome to the second TRO Dev Diary! Second off, I hate every single one of you. Before we begin with key gameplay elements and themes, I would like to bore you with an unhealthy injection of lore.

History:

With the victory of Bukharin over his adversaries in the Soviet Union, the Kuomintang, much like in real life, would have still committed the massacres and pogroms against the Communists. Bukharin historically never much advocated a severe foreign policy in regards to the Chinese Question, and here he simply reenacts the events of real life, at least to a point. It is only with the events of the Japanese invasion that things take a turn.

Much like real life, the Kuomintang and the Communists are forced into a united front on orders of the Comintern and the Xi'an Incident. The Soviet Union continues its assistance to China, and eventually, a stalemate is reached at the Battle of Tai’erzhuang. Things do not change until one fateful day, when the American behemoth is awoken from its slumber.

With Joseph Kennedy Sr. as President of the United States, it is Albert Wedermeyer, as opposed to Joseph "Vinegar Joe" Stilwell, who is sent to China to assist Chiang Kai Shek's forces. An ardent anti-communist, Wedermeyer managed to find a compatriot in Chiang Kai-shek, reinforcing a far more sympathetic view of the Kuomintang in this timeline as opposed to the dismal one held by the Roose

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

When I got home, they were still there.

What did 0 say to 8 ?

" Nice Belt "

So What did 3 say to 8 ?

" Hey, you two stop making out "

I won't be doing that today!

She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.

Thank you all for listening.

There hasn't been a post all year!

It’s pronounced “Noel.”
