If I don't see multiple ~media reporters~ columns about the extraordinarily irresponsible Wall Street Journal report from yesterday morning — and their extensive promotion of that inflammatory report — you all should just pack up and go home.

In honor of #AdultSwim 's 24th Anniversary I put together a retrospective piece for my university newspaper. Unfortunately it got bumped off, but it was able to be put up on the website. Hope y'all enjoy!

Pressure from callers? Did they work out a deal? Visa bending the knee as the Japanese public & politicians become aware of the situation?
Regardless, keep calling. This is a very positive sign
