Japan’s current trajectory (lack of desire to expand beyond what is considered “sustainable”) reminds me of this: https://t.co/gmtXBM4QDS

🐦
Obon coming up, as well at the Olympics. Perhaps Japan will continue manage to keep infections under control. But it’s sort of a metaphor for Japan’s entire way of dealing with things. It’s frustratingly conservative and highly effective, and you wonder why there’s no birth here?

🐦
The reservation system proudly uses the QR code (invented in Japan!). It comes through the mail (JP Post ftw!). It comes with a paper trail, the reservation ticket doubles as a nationwide (intl?) vaccine passport (bureaucracy ftw!). And it prioritizes the ruling class(austerity!)
2021-05-27 07:46:28 +0900
🐦
Third, our neighbors can’t do it for themselves and so have asked us to do it for them—even though I likely won’t be vaccinated till next year. We also did Junko’s parents reservation. We know many others with similar stories. But, what about all the people who don’t have help?
2021-05-27 07:46:27 +0900
🐦
Second, there are still plenty of people who still don’t want to—Why make it more difficult for them? You can reserve on web, LINE, and phone. With the above in mind, most of the over 65 set are only going to do the former (easiest/most comfortable for them). So it gets clogged.
2021-05-27 07:46:27 +0900
🐦
First, you’re forcing people to ‘reserve’ their time to make a reservation. Why not just open all the registration at once and let me people do it when they want? It’s like, why even have a booking system at all if you’re going to close and open it all the time?
2021-05-27 07:46:26 +0900
🐦
In Ako the vaccination reservation is like trying to get concert tickets, but for people over 65. You have to log on (phone, LINE, or web) at a specific time, and try to get a reservation in. It’s so backwards and inefficient. 🧵

So you know that song that’s like “the thigh bone’s connected to the hip bone”? There’s a Japanese version that for cultural reasons (see Departures), has disturbed entire generations of Japanese children (from: @zuuchinook ) https://t.co/XZTSMximM3

@SomsenRuben Reminded of this quote. Gotta keep exchanging, discussing, debating into infinity, creating knowledge—Earth appears to be the only place in the universe where it’s happening, too. Even if we found another place, it’d still be the rarest thing in the universe. https://t.co/iegudmRlks
