A turkey in an apartment.

We have wild turkeys that live in our town and have no problem taking over the street and pecking at cars.  I leaned on the horn and scared them off, but I really had to lean on it before they got the hint.

But, they aint easy to hunt. In urban areas they aint scared of people.

The Southern Baptist Convention, the second largest faith group in the US, said that the organization was under federal investigation over accusations of mishandling sexual abuse claims.



A 300-page independent report in May found that leaders of the SBC had minimized sexual abuse claims for years and lied to congregants about them.

Is she fired?

I guess it feels like you got fired when they just cancel you out of the blue and not renew your contract.

Japanese government tells young people to drink more booze

The Japanese have been drinking much less on average, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. Whereas in 1995, a person would on average consume roughly 26 gallons a year, that amount fell to 19.8 gallons in 2020. Since 1.7% of Japan's tax revenue derives from taxes on alcohol, this drop in alcohol consumption is regarded by the country's National Tax Agency as a problem. Less drinking means less revenue — a fact the NTA finds hard to swallow with the country facing a $348 billion deficit.



The Japan Times reported that Japan's liquor tax revenue experienced a historic drop in 2020, falling by nearly $812 million. The pandemic's impact on restaurants and bars that would otherwise have served alcohol is said to be partly to blame.



The NTA also believes social factors to have been responsible. Those who began to work from home are believed to have begun questioning "whether they need to continue the habit of drinking with colleagues to deepen communication."



Additionally, the Japanese population is shrinking and aging. Citizens over the age of 65 constitute more than a quarter of the population.



In an effort to rejuvenate this revenue stream, the Japanese government has recently launched a campaign to get more young people drinking more alcohol. Part of this initiative involves a nationwide competition inviting persons ages 20-39 to provide ideas for ways to prompt people to drink.

The Japanese government cares more about sin taxes than the health of it's citizens.

A friend who worked in Japan as a teacher lived there for about three years. She told me she will never go back. She said the country is beautiful but she does not want to go back there again to work and live. I can't remember the exact cause she gave me.
