Why shogunate kyuu fail to get Outou? I watched the whole thing but man, I think I forgot something. Rewinded, but I sick at reading in between the lines. The author has to spell it out for me in order to see. Does Kiguchi Zanta have any feelings for Shichika? That showgirl pun was one that I didn't understand. I'm kinda dumb when it comes to reading out hints.
Wanted to start talking about sleazy cheesy trash. So shot this after therapy last night. Open to suggestions of other stuff to talk about in this format.
Damn this was an amazing read.
>Jonathan Kuminga ambled past a horde of drunk college students as he surveyed the spectacle of a Monday night on the Las Vegas Strip. Cascades of neon. The off-pitch melody of an Elvis impersonator. Showgirls posing for pictures.
>“I’m too old for these streets,” Kuminga said. “It’s just the way I look at myself. I’m not that young kid anymore.”
>Las Vegas has been called the adult Disneyland. Kuminga, the Golden State Warriors’ rookie forward, can’t buy beer for another two-plus years. But at 18, he seems wiser than people twice his age.
>Growing up in the Congo — formerly Zaire — amid one of the bloodiest conflicts since World War II, Kuminga witnessed atrocities he won’t discuss. “Why dwell on the past?” he said. “The future is bright.”

Warriors fans call him a potential franchise player. And in Kuminga’s Twitter direct messages, young Congolese players call him an inspiration.
>Though Kuminga hasn’t visited his home country in sub-Saharan Africa since he left his mother and father at age 13, he keeps the Congo’s 92.6 million people front of mind. The Congolese flag sits next to his social media handles. Last year, in an article for the Players’ Tribune — a site that publishes pro athletes’ first-person stories — Kuminga penned a letter to “All the Kids Back Home.”
>Three months ago, as hundreds of thousands of people fled Goma to escape lava from a nearby volcano, he donated a significant portion of his $500,000 salary from the G League — the NBA’s developmental organization — to relief efforts.
>“If I was out there still, I was going to be one of those kids running from the volcano,” he said. “I’ve been through a lot of things in life that the regular person can’t understand. Still, I never forget how fortunate I am. I’m one of the lucky ones.”
