Bahtiyar Duysak Took Down Trump's Twitter Account But He Says It Was A "Mistake"

11:13 cherishe 0 Comments

Bahtiyar Duysak had his claim to fame when he deactivated President Donald Trump's Twitter account on Nov. 3 for precisely 11 minutes. While some deemed him a hero for providing the world 11 minutes of Trump-tweets-free activity, he calls himself an "ordinary guy." Even further from being a hero, Duysak said taking down Trump's account was a mistake.

On Nov. 3, the internet was in hysteria when they found out a Twitter contractor found a way to deactivate the most powerful leader in the world's (with over 20 million followers) Twitter account. Duysak, 28, who is a German native, didn't provide specific details of how he did it, only that it was a *legal* mistake.

"I did a mistake, I confess," Duysak said to CNNTech. "It's not like I was looking for something or planning to do it. It was in front of me, and I didn't do a good job, and I didn't double-check things."

Duysak, who was working for Twitter via a contracting company called Pro Unlimited, explained that he came into contact with Trump's Twitter account after another user reported it, according to CNN. The rest of what actually happened is unclear. Duysak said he didn't realize what he had done until news outlets were releasing Twitter's official statement on Nov. 2 about an employee who "inadvertently deactivated" his account "due to human error."

Duysak described Nov. 2 as a "hectic day" when he made the mistake. "You have a headache, you are tired. We are not machines — this was one of those days."

The contractor also made it very clear that he was not acting alone or from a place of personal vengeance for the president. Duysak said he actually admires Trump's success, telling CNNTech, "He is a very successful person, and I admire his hard work and how he made it to get the highest position. But I think he needs to learn a little as a politician."

While Duysak views himself as ordinary, the rest of the internet thinks otherwise. Ever since Duysak's identity has been revealed, people are campaigning on Twitter for him to be Time's Person of the Year.

Oddly enough, Nov. 2 was intended to be Duysak's last day working for Twitter. Duysak claimed to have spoken with Pro Unlimited and Twitter about his plans to leave in early November, despite his contract being until early 2018, according to CNN. Going out with a bang, much? The German native had plans to return home to Germany after living and working in San Francisco for two years. Rather than extend his work visa, he is now living back home in Germany.

Both Twitter and Pro Unlimited were unable to comment on Duysak and this incident to CNN.

After all is said and done, Duysak told CNN that he believes, as a Twitter employee, he had access to too much power over the internet and shouldn't be able to cause something that catastrophic with one misstep.

"Even if it was on purpose, it still shouldn't have taken place ... because of internal regulations at the company," he told CNNTech. "But all of this, it's not my responsibility and I don't want to say something negative about Twitter because it's a great platform where all people are given the chance to share real time information."

Could his opinions about the tech industry and its access to power be the reason he plans to start a career in banking? Who knows. Either way, this incident has brought to the surface important questions about the power and access our tech companies have over internet activity and personal accounts. If there's anything good that came from Duysak's mistake, it's that conversation.

Duysak also mentioned that he is not worried about repercussions, as he assured that what he did, even mistakingly, was legal. In Duysak's eyes he is a normal guy who made a work mistake, but to the rest of the internet, he will be remembered as the only guy who's ever been able to stop Trump from tweeting. Even if it was only for 11 minutes.

Jenny Slate & Chris Evans Are Reportedly Back Together, So Love Isn't Dead Yet

10:33 cherishe 0 Comments

This year has been mostly garbage, we can all agree on that. So it wasn't too surprising when Jenny Slate and Chris Evans, one of our fave couples, split back in February after one year of dating, leaving us all devastated. It appears as if all hope for 2017 isn't lost, though. Indeed, it looks like Jenny Slate and Chris Evans might be dating again after the two were seen grabbing dinner together in Atlanta while Evans filmed his latest Avengers movie.

Was My MacOS High Sierra Hacked? Here's How To Fix Your Device If It's At Risk

10:33 cherishe 0 Comments

Apple regularly releases software updates for its devices. If you have the storage space to accommodate the download, then you probably opt to get the update as soon as it becomes available. One of the recent updates, though, was accompanied by a very risky glitch. If you downloaded the latest upgrade, then you might be wondering, "Was my MacOS High Sierra hacked?" Well, it was likely at risk due to the the MacOS High Sierra security glitch, but you can fix it.

According to Tech Crunch, the latest version of MacOS High Sierra (10.13.1) posed a major security risk to its users because it appeared that anyone could log in and gain access to your computer with just one word. By typing "root" in the User Name field (with no password), anyone could log in to a computer running on MacOS High Sierra. To access the login, a user would just have to get to a page that requires a User Name and Password, like the settings found in the Security & Privacy sections of your System Preferences.

The good news is that there are two ways to fix this problem and keep your computer protected, and one of them is super easy.

Apple released a security update for MacOS High Sierra on Wednesday, Nov. 29, according to The Verge. The tech giant is urging Apple users to "install this update as soon as possible," as it says in the update's description. So, the simplest way to protect your computer while running the latest version of High Sierra is to download the latest security update from Apple. If you don't have time to get around to it, you may not have to worry because The Verge reported that Apple was automatically installing the security update on all systems running High Sierra by the end of the day on Wednesday.

Simple fixes are usually the best way to go, but before Wednesday, Nov. 29, there was a workaround in place to protect yourself from the High Sierra security risk first noticed by Lemi Orhan Ergin on Tuesday, Nov. 28 when he posted about it on his Twitter page.

In case the latest security update doesn't work, you can fall back on the workaround that Apple shared on Nov. 28. Apple's statement on the issue instructed High Sierra users to set a password for the User Name "root." To do so, you log in to your Mac with your Administrator account and enable the root User Name. Then, you set a password for the root User Name to ensure that nobody can access your computer by just entering "root." Apple also offered the solution of disabling the root User Name altogether. Full instructions can be found in Apple's statement on the issue here.

Once again, though, if you don't want to go through complicated processes like the aforementioned options, there is a new security update available to fix the issue when running MacOS High Sierra.

This isn't the first time that an Apple update has caused headaches for its users. You might recall that a couple of weeks ago, typing out the letter "i" on your iPhone proved to be a very difficult task. The "i" glitch in iOS 11.1 caused the letter "A" next to a boxed-in question mark to become the new normal all over people's messages and social media posts. Thankfully, Apple released a fix for that in the iOS 11.1.1 update.

From the looks of it, glitches can range from annoying all the way to the level of a security threat. Of course, you don't want to deal with any glitches, but in this fast-paced tech world, they're bound to happen. Granted, this latest one was scary (what with the possibility of all your information being the in the hands of a stranger), but as long as you keep an eye out, you can usually find a workaround to make sure you're always protected.

First-ever permanent Pokémon cafe set to open in Tokyo alongside new Pokémon Center megastore

09:33 cherishe 0 Comments

Missed your chance to eat at the limited-time Pokémon restaurants? The new eatery will be ready for you whenever you come to town.

In recent years, Japan has seen a number of themed restaurants pop up, many of them drawing inspiration from popular anime series. However, most of these are limited-time affairs, meaning that if you’re only going to be in Japan for a short trip, it’s a role of the dice as to what otaku dining options you’ll have.

But next year Tokyo is getting a Pokémon restaurant that fans can eat at any time. Like its limited-time predecessors, the permanent Pokémon Cafe will feature food, drinks, and décor that draws on decades’ worth of Pokémon anime and video game aesthetics.

The new Pokémon Café will be located inside the Takashimaya department store in Tokyo’s Nihonbashi neighborhood, a short walk from either the Nihombashi subway station, as well as Tokyo Station, which is accessible by both subway and surface trains.

Also coming to Takashimaya Nihonbashi is a new Pokémon specialty shop, to be called the Pokémon Center Tokyo DX. In Japan, “DX” is commonly used as an abbreviation for “deluxe,” though the Pokémon Company hasn’t made any promises that the Pokémon Center Tokyo DX will be any larger than the other already-huge Pokémon Center branches in Tokyo and elsewhere in Japan. Most Pokémon Centers do have certain exclusive pieces of merchandise, though, and the presence of Mew in the store’s logo suggests the Pokémon Center Tokyo DX will be the best place to shop for merch for the mysterious Pocket Monster.

The permanent Pokémon Café and Pokémon Center Tokyo DX are scheduled to open simultaneously on March 14.

How The Weather Affects Your Mood & Your Personality, According To A New Study

09:13 cherishe 0 Comments

A wise author by the name of B.J. Neblett once said, “We are the sum total of our experiences.” Of course, there will always be debate over the influence of nature versus nurture, but the undeniable truth is that what we’re exposed to in the early stages of life can and will strongly impact the development of our personalities, in more ways than we realize. In fact, according to a new study that researched how the weather affects your mood and your personality, it turns out the average temperature of your hometown could be very telling in terms of whether you are more introverted or extroverted.    

The research, which comes from the journal Nature, focused on the behavioral traits of more than 1.5 million people living in both the United States and China, and how their personalities aligned with the average temperature of their hometown. From these observations, it was concluded that those who grew up in environments that were recorded as too hot or too cold were more likely to identify as introverted, while those who lived in areas where the average temperature reached a more mild 72 degrees Fahrenheit were more extroverted.  

Aside from this one study, there's plenty of research supporting the idea that the weather can affect your mood.

For me, as far as seasons go, fall and spring are my favorites. As far as I'm concerned, nothing beats a crisp autumn afternoon when it’s just cool enough to snuggle in an oversized sweater without shivering, or a sunny spring morning with a slight breeze blowing against my favorite denim jacket. In life, comfort is key, and what the weather is like outside can absolutely affect how you're feeling on any given day.

The weather can affect not only how you’re feeling on a daily basis, but also your overall mental health. For example, seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is defined by the Mayo Clinic as a “type of depression that’s related to changing seasons.” Those who suffer from SAD generally show symptoms like low energy and a loss of interest in social activities at the start of winter, and tend to feel better once spring has sprung.

Of course, while SAD is a real, diagnosable form of depression, most of us can relate to the downer that wintertime can often be. I know myself, and once autumnal temps plummet below 50 degrees, I get super lethargic and would much rather hibernate under the blankets with my husband, kitty, and a Netflix marathon than throw on something pretty and grab a drink with my girlfriends. When the last snow of the season has melted and springtime is in full bloom, however, that's a different story.

For most of us, warm temperatures improve our mood, which might be because warmth is said to have an antidepressant effect. Christopher Lowry, PhD, associate professor of integrative physiology and a member of the Center for Neuroscience at the University of Colorado Boulder, told Psychology Today that "spring fever" is seen when our skin becomes warmer, and pleasant stimulation is activated in our brain. In other words, the better the weather conditions, the better we feel mentally and physically.

But even though the weather can affect your mood and your personality, it doesn't completely define who you are as a person.

Let me just say that, for the record, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being an introvert. As long as you can honestly say you’re happy in your lifestyle and that, despite your preference of pets to people, you still make time for your friends and family on occasion, then do you, girl. However, if you are someone who tends to be on the shyer side of the spectrum and are interested in branching out, you absolutely can change your mindset to meet your goal.

While I can agree with the concept of weather affecting mood and how we enjoy spending our free time, people change with their surroundings. Ergo, just because you may have grown up in Alaska spending the majority of your days inside than out, doesn't mean you can't move to Los Angeles and become more active outside the homestead.

That's not to say that moving someplace sunnier is the key to happiness. There's definitely more to your mood than how much sunshine you're soaking in. But the weather of your hometown doesn't automatically determine who you are and who you will be for the rest of your life. Personally, I'm a strong believer that if you change your mind, you can change your mood, so if you're feeling particularly adventurous, take the plunge! But if you're feeling a Friday night in with a bowl of popcorn and movies instead, that's fine, too.

For me, as far as seasons go, fall and spring are my favorites. As far as I'm concerned, nothing beats a crisp autumn afternoon when it’s just cool enough to snuggle in an oversized sweater without shivering, or a sunny spring morning with a slight breeze blowing against my favorite denim jacket. In life, comfort is key, and what the weather is like outside can absolutely affect how you're feeling on any given day.

The weather can affect not only how you’re feeling on a daily basis, but also your overall mental health. For example, seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is defined by the Mayo Clinic as a “type of depression that’s related to changing seasons.” Those who suffer from SAD generally show symptoms like low energy and a loss of interest in social activities at the start of winter, and tend to feel better once spring has sprung.

Of course, while SAD is a real, diagnosable form of depression, most of us can relate to the downer that wintertime can often be. I know myself, and once autumnal temps plummet below 50 degrees, I get super lethargic and would much rather hibernate under the blankets with my husband, kitty, and a Netflix marathon than throw on something pretty and grab a drink with my girlfriends. When the last snow of the season has melted and springtime is in full bloom, however, that's a different story.

For most of us, warm temperatures improve our mood, which might be because warmth is said to have an antidepressant effect. Christopher Lowry, PhD, associate professor of integrative physiology and a member of the Center for Neuroscience at the University of Colorado Boulder, told Psychology Today that "spring fever" is seen when our skin becomes warmer, and pleasant stimulation is activated in our brain. In other words, the better the weather conditions, the better we feel mentally and physically.

But even though the weather can affect your mood and your personality, it doesn't completely define who you are as a person.

Let me just say that, for the record, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being an introvert. As long as you can honestly say you’re happy in your lifestyle and that, despite your preference of pets to people, you still make time for your friends and family on occasion, then do you, girl. However, if you are someone who tends to be on the shyer side of the spectrum and are interested in branching out, you absolutely can change your mindset to meet your goal.

While I can agree with the concept of weather affecting mood and how we enjoy spending our free time, people change with their surroundings. Ergo, just because you may have grown up in Alaska spending the majority of your days inside than out, doesn't mean you can't move to Los Angeles and become more active outside the homestead.

That's not to say that moving someplace sunnier is the key to happiness. There's definitely more to your mood than how much sunshine you're soaking in. But the weather of your hometown doesn't automatically determine who you are and who you will be for the rest of your life. Personally, I'm a strong believer that if you change your mind, you can change your mood, so if you're feeling particularly adventurous, take the plunge! But if you're feeling a Friday night in with a bowl of popcorn and movies instead, that's fine, too.

Now you can rent an anime itasha in Japan for the authentic otaku driving experience

08:08 cherishe 0 Comments

Not ready to convert your own car into a shrine for your favorite anime characters? No problem, this rental car company will loan you one!

Anime and cars have always been two of my great passions, and so I can see the appeal of itasha, cars covered with anime character artwork. It’s basically the same concept as wearing a T-shirt of your favorite anime series, just with an automotive application.

But there’s a key difference, in that you can (and should) change your shirt daily. If you’re, say, headed out to spend the day with fellow otaku, you can wear that Attack on Titan shirt with pride, but if you’re going out to a fancy restaurant with your boyfriend or girlfriend’s parents, you can put on something more appropriate instead. On the other hand, once you turn your car into an itasha, it’s not a quick or cheap process to undo.

Now, though, Nissan has come up with a brilliant way to let you sample the itasha life for a day.

Like many automakers in Japan, Nissan has its own car rental chain. From December 1, Nissan will be offering customers the chance to rent a special Note e-Power hatchback with livery featuring the schoolgirl idol cast of hit anime Love Live! Sunshine!!

A follow-up to the original Love Live!, Sunshine!! takes place in the seaside Shizuoka Prefecture town of Numazu, and its background art incorporates a number of actual locations from the city. As such, Numazu, like a number of other real-world anime settings, has seen a jump in tourism from anime fans coming on “pilgrimages” to the area, and so Nissan Rentacar’s Numazu Station branch, located right outside the rail hub, is the proud branch offering the anime ride.

▼ The backside is especially packed with idols.

The Love Live! Sunshine!! car is available for rental daily from 8 a.m. or 2 p.m., priced at 8,640 yen (US$77). No mention has been made of how long the rental lasts, but since there’s only one rental itasha on offer, the rental period would seem to be roughly six hours, which should give you plenty of time to see the local sights and snap pictures to show off to fellow fans.

▼ Remember, U.S. travelers, you can drive in Japan as long as you have an International Driver’s Permit, which is a $20 translation you can get in minutes from any AAA branch.

For this first foray into itasha rentals, Nissan Rentcar is limiting availability only to the Numazu Station branch. But the company has locations across Japan, including in the otaku mecca of Tokyo’s Akihabara neighborhood, so if there turns out to be enough demand for the Love Live! Sunshine!! car, we might eventually see rental itasha offered elsewhere too.

Perfect-location Osaka hotel’s rates start at just 15 bucks, give you no reason not to visit

07:13 cherishe 0 Comments

Unbeatable price still puts you in the heart of the city’s entertainment district.

For many travelers, all they’re really looking for in a hotel is a place to sleep. Sure, luxury amenities might sound nice, but if you’re spending your days sightseeing and your nights sampling the local dining and nightlife options, you’re going to be asleep for most of the time you’re in the hotel, and all those unused facilities and fancy furnishings are just adding to your bill.

The problem, though, is that less expensive hotels are often stuck in out-of-the-way neighborhoods, and with nothing interesting to see you might end up spending more time in your bare-bones hotel room than you’d imagined. But that’s not a problem with Wasabi Osaka, a capsule hotel that’s located right in the heart of Osaka’s entertainment district, but with rates as low as 1,700 yen (US$15) a night. Even when we stopped by on a Saturday night, we paid just 2,500 yen.

Wasabi is just a five-minute walk from Namba Station, providing immediate access to the restaurants, pubs, bars, and shops of Namba, Osaka’s most lively neighborhood and a must-visit for any trip to the city.

▼ The hotel has an English website where reservations can be made, and the wasabi-colored sign makes the hotel easy to spot.

Head up to the second-floor common area, and you might at first think you’ve stumbled into a bookstore by mistake, since Wasabi has a collection of 5,000 books from around the world for guests to peruse at their leisure. There’s also free Wi-Fi, if you’ve got important stuff to read online.

In addition, Wasabi provides complimentary soft drinks, both hot and cold, and miso soup.

Guests can check in anytime between 3 p.m. and midnight (check-ins after midnight carry an additional 500-yen fee). However, you’re given free in-and-out privileges, so the smart thing to do is to come early to secure a sleeping space, then head out to explore the city.

As with all capsule hotels, sleeping spaces are cozily proportioned, but that doesn’t mean that Wasabi cheaped out on the bedding. The futons are from Nishikawa Sangyo, a respected Tokyo-based company whose roots go back all the way to the year 1566.

While many capsule hotels only accept male guests, Wasabi also welcomes female travelers, who’re given their own secure sleeping floor.

The shower area is remarkably clean, with soap and combination shampoo/conditioner provided. Towels can be rented for 200 yen, assuming you didn’t pick one up beforehand at the 100-yen store.

If Wasabi’s low rates have you thinking you might be staying in Osaka long enough to use up all your clean clothes, there’s an on-site laundry area.


Breakfast is offered for 450 yen, with options such as rice balls, pancakes, and ham and eggs. You will have to order it the night before, though. Alternatively, this being Namba, there’s no shortage of inexpensive cafes and places to pick up food within easy walking distance of the hotel.

With rates that are less expensive than a moderately fancy sushi dinner, Wasabi Osaka makes staying for a few nights in Osaka an extremely affordable travel plan. And if you need a great way to get to Osaka in the first place, we can help you with that too.

Promotional video for new Girls und Panzer movie shows girls dancing while cleaning a tank

06:03 cherishe 0 Comments

Suds, brooms, tanks, and dancing. What more could you want?

A new video starring girls in high school gym clothes dancing while cleaning a tank recently dropped on YouTube, and it’s bizarrely entertaining. Some might wonder if it’s some kind of marketing ploy for the Japan-Self Defense Force, or if it’s part of some kind of military convention, but it’s actually a promotional video for the upcoming movie sequel to the anime Girls und Panzer!

Girls und Panzer features high school girls who practice the ancient art of sensha-dou, or war-tank fighting. It sounds strange, but it was wildly popular, and has also been released as a manga series, novel, OVA, video game, and animated film. It was so beloved by fans that it inspired multiple gimmicks, like tank noodles, tank sushi, and even decorative items. It’s even caused a surge in popularity of the Japan Self Defense Force.

The latest addition to the Girl-Pan collection is this promotional “dance movie” entitled “SEN-SHA”, which, without a clarifying kanji, can be conveniently interpreted as either “car washing” or “tank”. Since this is the newest installation in about two years, the new movie has been highly anticipated, and this video does plenty to boost the hype, as the clip is carefully designed to be very loyal to the designs in the anime, from the costumes and hair to the sets and props.

▼ The five main dancers are made up to look like the main characters of the anime.

▼ The tank used in the video is a movie prop. It’s a Panzer IV, which plays a pivotal role in the anime.

▼ This storage yard is a replica of one that appears in the anime.

We also love the inexplicable and somewhat shady appearance of Japanese pro wrestler Masahiro Chono, who for some reason drives the girls and their tank to the storage yard. He’s known to be a big fan of the series, but why he is included in the video is a mystery that may never be solved.

Though it’s a quirky advertisement for the new movie, we can’t deny that it’s a pretty entertaining video. Dance scenes in water showers, tutting (a dance style using only hand movements) while riding in a tank, and large group choreography designed by the dance troop s**t kingz make for pretty neat viewing, regardless of whether you’re a fan of the anime or not.

The new movie, Girls und Panzer: The Final Chapter Part 1, is the first of a six-part movie series, and is set to be released in Japanese theaters on December 9. It takes place after the original series, so if this dance video has piqued your interest and you haven’t seen the anime yet, go check it out before you see The Final Chapter Part 1. 

And in other movie news, get hyped with us because the Fullmetal Alchemist live action film is also coming out soon!

Ghibli reveals genre of Hayao Miyazaki’s next anime, and that it’s also working on new CG film

05:03 cherishe 0 Comments

“Ghibli will continue making movies,” veteran producer vows as Miyazaki returns to the genre that made him a legend.

Hayao Miyazaki coming out of retirement for the second time may have been a forgone conclusion, but that doesn’t mean the anticipation is any less intense for his upcoming anime film, titled How Will You Live? Miyazaki’s latest project is expected to premiere in Japanese theaters in or around 2020, and given the immense international acclaim he’s acquired in the latter half of his career, should reach overseas audiences not too long after.

The film shares its title with a 1937 novel by Genzaburo Yoshino, which follows a teenager’s emotional development and his relationship with his peers and uncle. However, much as Miyazaki’s The Wind Rises, (which was billed as his final film upon release in 2013) was not an adaptation of the book of the same name, neither is Miyazaki’s How Will You Live?

Instead, the new anime will be a fantasy action/adventure, as revealed by Studio Ghibli producer and career-long Miyazaki collaborator Toshio Suzuki, who’s seen Miyazaki’s annotated storyboards for the first 20 minutes of How Will You Live? “The content of the film is very different from what you’d expect from the title. It’s a grand fantasy. Looking at the storyboards, I could easily understand why Miya-san changed his mind about retiring,” Suzuki said, using the nickname he often does for Miyazaki. “He couldn’t have his career end with The Wind Rises. His reputation, after all, was built on his fantasy action/adventure works.”

It’s true that The Wind Rises, a fictionalized story of the life of the developer of Mitsubishi’s World War II-era Zero fighter plane, was much more grounded in real-world settings and situations (its fantastic dream sequences not withstanding). And while they may not fit into the standard blockbuster mold, it’s true that many of Miyazaki’s most memorable works, such as Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, Castle in the Sky Laputa, and Spirited Away, contain significant fantasy adventure elements, as well as heart-pounding acton scenes. 1997’s Princess Mononoke, Miyazaki’s first attempt to put an endnote on his career as an anime filmmaker, also fits into the category.

Suzuki also took the opportunity to assert that while Ghibli has taken an extended breather, releasing no feature-length anime since 2014’s When Marnie Was There, the company isn’t done making animation by a long shot. The producer revealed that concurrent with the new Hayao Miyazaki production, Studio Ghibli is also working on a CG film to be directed by the elder Miyazaki’s son, Goro, director of the 2011 Ghibli anime From Up on Poppy Hill and the 2014 CG TV series Ronja, the Robber’s Daughter.

“Ghibli will continue making movies,” Suzuki declared. “That’s the path we follow, and all we can do is continue, until the day we can’t anymore.”

Who's Playing Mulan In The Live-Action Movie? Liu Yifei Is Disney's Newest Princess

12:40 cherishe 0 Comments

Ladies and gentlemen, we officially have our Mulan! After a yearlong, worldwide search for an actress to portray the iconic lead role in the upcoming live-action remake of Mulan, Disney has finally made its choice. Chinese actress Liu Yifei will pick up the sword to play one of Disney's most badass "princesses" in the highly anticipated remake, as reported by the Hollywood Reporter, and you should be pumped because Yifei seems like the perfect choice. Here's what you need to know about our Liu Yifei, our live-action Mulan.

For one thing, Liu Yifei is already a super popular actress and model in China, and has proven herself in some major kung fu movies before now. Though most of her movies are in Chinese, she does speak English fluently thanks to spending part of her childhood in New York, and has nabbed major parts in English-speaking movies such as 2008's The Forbidden Kingdom alongside Jackie Chan and Jet Li, and 2014's Outcast with Nicolas Cage. She is also widely known in China for her good looks, becoming one of the country's most popular models and earning the media nickname "Fairy Sister."

Liu Yifei is also a pop singer, who's released two albums and recorded songs for the soundtracks of several of the films she's been in. While this sounds like it would be a huge help in her casting as Mulan since the original 1998 animated movie featured several iconic songs, we probably won't be hearing her singing voice at all in the upcoming remake. Back in March, the director of the live-action Mulan, Niki Caro, revealed that she is not planning on including any of the original songs in her adaptation. So even though Liu Yifei definitely has the voice for it, it sounds like we won't be hearing her rendition of "Reflection."

Liu Yifei's casting comes at the end of an extensive worldwide search by Disney for its Mulan star. Casting directors began their search in the fall of 2016, reportedly visiting five continents in order to track down the perfect actress for the part. Though they travelled the globe to find their lead, the studio reportedly did focus their search on ethnically Chinese young women in order to keep the casting culturally accurate to the film. It sounds like a very similar process to the one that Disney underwent to cast its lead in the live-action Aladdin, which also went to an actor relatively unknown to American audiences, Mena Massoud, after a long worldwide search.

This is the first bit of casting news to come from the live-action Mulan. I think we can all rest assured that Yifei will make an excellent Mulan, and now fans are waiting to see which actors will fill out the rest of the beloved main roles in the movie, including the wise-cracking dragon Mushu (originally voiced by Eddie Murphy) and Mulan's military captain and love interest Li Shang (originally voiced by B. D. Wong). I have a sneaking suspicion that Mulan may decide to cast a really big A-lister for the part of Mushu, just going off how they cast Will Smith as Aladdin's scene-stealing comic relief character. There hasn't really been any talk of that yet, though, so we will have to just wait to see how the cast fills out.

The only bad news is that we are going to have to wait a long time before we actually get to see the live-action Mulan on the big screen. The movie was originally scheduled to come out towards the end of 2018, but recently got pushed back to sometime in 2019.

Japan’s most popular pub chain rolls beer price back to what it was in 1980 for celebration

09:33 cherishe 0 Comments

Always a good choice for a beer, Hub is about to become an even better one.

Since opening its first branch in 1980, Japan’s Hub chain of bars has been a stalwart ally to fans of adult beverages. With convenient locations, low prices, a friendly atmosphere, and English menus, the Hub’s English-style pubs have built up a diverse clientele of both Japanese and expat college students and young professionals.

That broad appeal has been good to Hub, and the company has announced that as of December 4 it’ll be listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. To celebrate the achievement, on that day all Hub locations will be offering draft beer, all day long, for just 180 yen (US$1.60).

Why 180 yen? Because that was the price of beer at Hub’s first branch in Kobe’s Sannomiya neighborhood when it opened 37 years ago, which means if you factor in inflation, on December 4 Hub’s beer will be even cheaper than it was when the chain was founded.

Oh, and unlike many bars in Japan, Hub has no cover charge, and its tax-included prices, plus the lack of tipping in Japanese society, means that 180 yen is the total, final price of that beer. Granted, the 180-yen promotion is for a half-pint, but there’s no limit to how many glasses you can drink at that price, and 360 yen, total, for a full pint is still a great deal. And besides, regardless of glass size, 180-yen beer is a great excuse to go drinking on a Monday.

3 Signs You're Being Negged & How To Put A Stop To It

09:28 cherishe 0 Comments

I hate the novelty pet names our generation gives to bad dating manners (see: "breadcrumbing" or "benching," lest we forget the OG "ghosting"). When it comes to "negging," though, I'm torn. While my slogan remains "Adding The Suffix '-ing' To A Bad Behavior Doesn't Make It Cute 2018," I do appreciate that the popularization of the term negging has brought attention to the behavior itself. There have always been signs you're being negged, but maybe you've missed them until now.

If you are wondering what negging is, you're not alone. I've heard the term plenty, and I still gave it a Google to make sure I had interpreted it correctly. I also spoke to behavioral scientist and clinician Clarissa Silva, you know, for non-Google confirmation and stuff. "Negging is a form emotional manipulation that lowers self-confidence and self-esteem to create a co-dependence on the manipulator," she says.

Basically, negging is a backhanded compliment. Insult-flirting. A subtle way of making you feel "less than." My initial Google of the term brought me to a website created by a man who had trouble getting laid early on in his life. Apparently, he now advises men with similar grievances online. His article recommended such negs as "Your nose is a little red. You’re like an Eskimo. Cool," and "You remind me of my little sister." What I recommend? GIVING THESE KINDS OF COMMENTS A HARD PASS.

So how do you know if you're being negged? It's not always as obvious as the aforementioned website's lame ways of approaching a human woman. Here are some more subtle signs of negging to look out for.

1. They Comment On Your Appearance In Ways That Make You Feel Insecure

If your partner, or even a stranger at the bar, makes a comment about what you are wearing or what your face looks like, it's a good idea to pay attention to how that comment makes you feel. "You have really pretty eyes" is a totally flattering, acceptable compliment, while "Wow, do you get your eyelashes done?" or "When did you last get your brows done?" are definitely designed to make you feel at least a little bit badly.

2. They Compare You To Other Women

Another major red flag that indicates negging is "comparison to other women to create doubt in you," says Silva. Yes, even to their "younger sister." If someone compares you to Meghan Markle in a good way, great. Fine. That's fair — we'd all take it. However, if someone is pointing out where your flaws lie in relation to other women they know, or have seen on Suits, they're negging you, and it's pretty gross.

3. They Self-Deprecate To Get You To Pity Them

If your partner or date is consistently talking down on themselves, they're engaging in another form of negging. Silva says that a partner may engage in self-deprecation to get you to pity them, thus maintaining their dominance in the relationship. "Emotionally needy types need you to fill the gap of what they are lacking themselves," says Silva. "They need you to be there to act as a lifeline to their emptiness."

So why do people engage in this awful behavior? Does it really get them laid? I can tell you that, while I have been known to have crushes on certain withholding men, I have never been turned on by a man who has been straight up mean to me.

And it's not only men who do it. "Negging is not just about male dominance, it’s about what I call the 'predatorial type,'" says Silva. "They exert a false sense of power to mask their own weakness and self-hatred. They resent and admire their prey because they embody what they wish they could be."

What To Do About It

If you are reading this, and you think you may be in a relationship with someone who negs you, there are steps that you can take to put an end to it. First, Silva recommends you take note of the signs of negging, as recognizing them will allow you to not engage with them. Second, it's important to take a look at your own self-worth: Are you being treated in the way you truly deserve to be treated?

"It may be that you surrounded yourself with people who didn't deserve you, and they were able to convince you that you were at their level," explains Silva. It's important to surround yourself with people who value you. Being treated properly will remind you just how effed up negging really is, especially from a partner who is supposed to care about you.

If you're looking to move past a specific negative relationship, or a general tendency to date people who make themselves superior to you, Silva recommends looking at dating like a social experiment. "Treat dating like you are collecting data on what you want and don’t want," she says. "See what combinations of qualities and characteristics better complement you."

I will back her recommendation up with real-life experiment: I am in the midst of a 51 first date experiment, and while I'm only on date 10, I've already decided that the majority of men out there are good guys. Also, I've only been negged on one out of 10 of those dates, so that's good, I guess? Baby steps.
