In Danish, million is 'million'. With me so far? Problems start with billion which is 'milliard'. Ok, we can work with that, but only today I learn that trillion is 'billion'. Come on guys.

Actors in Ginza promote a film by performing scenes live on the street.

1950（昭和25）年東京・銀座に現れた、東宝映画「また逢う日まで」の奇想天外な宣伝。屋台のような枠の中で、登場人物に扮した男女が劇中のワンシーンを演じる。演じ終わると彼ら自身が屋台を移動させ、別の場所でまた「演技」をする

Deepl translation

1950 (Shōwa 25) An extraordinary promotional campaign for Toho's film ‘Until We Meet Again’ appeared in Tokyo's Ginza district. Within a stall-like frame, men and women dressed as characters from the film performed scenes from the movie. Upon finishing their performance, they themselves moved the stall to another location to perform again.

'Skagen.' (1889) Eilif Petersen first visited Skagen in Denmark in 1884 and visited Paris the following year where he saw work by Monet and Alfred Sisley, both of whom had a profound influence in the way he depicted light on sand and moving water.

JD Vance and Peter Thiel are running a sustained operation out of the White House designed to acquire Greenland, either voluntarily or by force. Thiel has laid out plans for what he intends to do with the island nation in past writings. It doesn't entail the consent of the Greenlanders for anything.

They routinely go through archives and decode ancient ciphers purely for fun.” All crime writers rush to typewriters.

How did James Brown ever make a living in the world of words? "I didn’t really know what I would be visiting, but as a former NME writer it dawned on me that I was finally swapping sex and drugs and rock’n’roll for seeds and buds and garden rollers." www.thetimes.com/life-style/p...

James Brown once embodied the party lifestyle. So how did he become obsessed with exotic seeds and secateurs?

I’ve always felt people should pronounce words exactly how they want (though I’m not keen on ‘haitch’ or ‘mischiev-i-ous’). But pronouncing the ‘j’ in Beijing softly like French ‘je’ instead of hard like ‘jingle’ pains me because people think it’s accurate. It isn’t.

In 2010, Mark Zuckberberg became Time's "Person of The Year". The article is surreal reading today. Here are just two quotes: "As for money, his indifference to it is almost pathological" "Facebook wants to...tame the howling mob...The Internet, and the whole world, will feel more like a family"

Harald Slott-Møller's 'Summer Day,' (1888) was painted in Skagen, in the far north of Denmark, the fishing town made famous by artists who first discovered the area and its special quality of light in the 1800s.

Yes, that's my impression too, coming from even tidier Denmark. Has the feeling of the UK in the late '70s.
