“Cardboard Cooler” with cooling function using frozen plastic bottles.

I thought it was ridiculous to make your own air conditioner out of cheap materials, but apparently it's actually quite cool.

However, the author of the article says that “the wind smells a little like metal.”

The article is in Japanese, but for details, please refer to the link below.

Yes. I am a feminist, though I am skeptical.

Some feminists argue(Article in Japanese) that the gender equality brought about by feminism also liberates men from the suffering unique to them.

I take a similar stance, believing that the 'gender equality' brought about by male feminism, which seeks happiness for men, also liberates women from the suffering unique to them. In some ways, I am a reactionary feminist.

Previously, I was a male feminist with old-fashioned thinking, striving to eliminate only women's suffering, not men's.

However, I changed my mind after the Japanese government, where I live, adopted a policy of allocating "female admission quotas" at prestigious universities, including national universities, as part of its affirmative action program, modeled on America's racial admission quotas.

Even back when I supported traditional feminism, I was critical of the current state of university education in Japan, where there are public women's universities but no public men's universities. I also believe that expanding these quotas to general universities would violate the Constitution, which proclaims gender equality. I cannot trust traditional Japanese feminism, which supports the unconstitutional status quo, and that is why I have become the skeptical feminist I mentioned earlier.

I'm not an Anglophone, so I apologize if the grammar in this comment is incorrect.

This playlist is not my work, so I cannot include songs mentioned in the comments.

To address this issue, I created a playlist that includes two songs I already know and songs recommended in the comments.

I've divided the songs into two themes: "Frog Croaking" and "Frog Themes."

To avoid confusion about the playlist's themes, I've reorganized them into two playlists: one for songs that fit the "Frog Croaking" theme and one for the newly released "Frog Names."
