I just learned that “bento” (弁当), as in the box lunch, uses “ben” 弁 meaning “dialect” and not “ben” 便 meaning “convenient,” and I am irrationally annoyed.
Ballot finally received Friday, Nov. 4 in Japan. Mailing back first thing in the morning Saturday, Nov. 5. Will they get it by Noon Fri EST? #WillItCount #IDontLikeThisGame

My ballot is allegedly still in the mail, hoping to see it soon. Waiting to see if my vote gets counted [before or after my Congress-critter, City Council, and School Board are seated]. 🙄 (Before offering advice, know that I am >6500mi from my State's nearest Elections Office)

The secret to passing the JLPT is to stop studying Japanese and instead study for the JLPT
