Business opportunity: Tinfoil hats and clothing!
and a big bowl of nuts.

I agree with this but not because of EM.
Portman perches on a living room chair, and her daughter clings to her like a tiny koala. It’s nearing naptime, and like most children in 2018, her daughter has begun whining for the phone. “You don’t need that. It’s not good for you,” says Portman, gently wrapping her in a hug. “Let’s get you some tea.”

Two men, both biologists and both employees of the U.S. Forest Service, spotted an unidentified walking creature in a forest somewhere in the Pacific Northwest. Last seen: lumbering between a pair of trees. Cue Byrne, who at the time was director of the Bigfoot Information Center and Exhibition in The Dalles, Ore.
...
Byrne bagged the sample and had it delivered to the FBI. In one letter to the bureau, he asked if an agent could “arrange for a comparative analysis of some hairs that we have here which we are unable to identify.” In another, he stressed the urgency of the inquiry: “Please understand that our research here is serious. That this is a serious question that needs answering.”

He never heard back. Until Wednesday, when the bureau released its four-decade-old Bigfoot files.

She usually buys a size 16 and ordered the bikini along with several other items including a swimsuit, shorts and a top online.

Katrina then stockpiled the summertime wear and left it in the packaging ready for her holiday on June 23 to see family and friends.

However, when Katrina went to try on the bikini, she was left stunned after discovering Boohoo had incorrectly sent two size eight bikini bottoms.

I thought half black half Japanese was completely unacceptable in Japan (actually nothing but pure Japanese) ? Are things changing?
The current generation seems to have left some of that behind on the superficial social level. Being (or at least trying to be) culturally Japanese is a big factor if you live there. It's not a multicultural society by any means but after working for a Japanese company (Fujitsu) for 10 years I saw them adapting quickly to a changing world because they had no choice.

You can look like a 'Black' man but be very Japanese.
