How are people able to run blogs at this site?

I have tried repeatedly over the months going back and double checking everything meticulously before "Creating" but this blog refuses to accept anything I attempt publishing. I have posted several initial posts and have done the EXACT same thing but am being refused telling me "unable to save." Is there a secret coded message here or something I am missing? Are there a specific amount of hyper links that we are limited to? What's the max wording on any one blog? Is it my browser? What about my moniker, maybe this site is rejecting my moniker name? I mean, damn, what gives here? It was so frustrating that I deleted this blog bookmark and then after several months attempted posting just now. Same damn thing. I'll be damned if i can figure this out.

    Have you emailed the team directly? Are you leaving your browser open a long time? The only time I ever had a problem is when I left a post half written, came back hours later and tried to finish and post it. If I need time to finish an article I write it on Word first then copy and paste over. I hope you can figure it out or get some help from the team.

    It seems that from February to May, you posted quite a lot. Did you update your computer, change browsers, or make any other major changes around the end of May that could be conflicting with the website? Also, like Saitama said, the support team is really the best place to go with this. Good luck!

    I had the same issue in #SummerInJapan Campaign. The things which I have noticed is, When you upload big images it takes time to upload, and resize to screen.So if you are uploading many images just wait for each 1 or 2 images , until they resize as screen size.If you still find difficulty try to email admin directly on email or on there facebook page, and I am sure they will reply back to you :)

Blogs from the summer that ought to be in the pick up?

I've been reading everybody avidly, and have learned about culture and currents thanks to the blogs! The PICK UP selections under the blog tab are from winter/spring 2025. What would you say are some blog contributions that stood out in the last two months or so?

Japan features that would be a bug in your country? And the opposite?

What features in Japan's culture would be considered a bug in your home country? Or the other way around - an aspect of daily life in your home country that wouldn't fly here in Japan? I've got one. In Japan, many sliding doors in industrial and institutional buildings are designed to make noise. The rattle indicates comings and goings. I worked in institutional buildings in Canada with silent doors and soft closing mechanisms.

Reflections on our home countries after living in Japan

I think one thing living in Japan has given me is an appreciation of things my country does really well, and things it doesn't do so well in comparison to here. For instance, I think Australia is great with annual leave entitlements. You get four weeks automatically (some workplaces offer even more!) and there's not any guilt associated with taking it. Something we don't do so well is public transport. I know that Australia is a massive country, but there has been talk of creating a high speed rail option from Melbourne to Sydney for ages, and nothing has ever come of it. It's basically an 8 hour drive or flying. Also, inner city trains are regularly not on time. What are the things you think your home country does better or worse than Japan?

Hair Color Treatments for Greying Hair

For those of you who have colored grey hair, I'm curious about the hair color treatments available in most drugstores. They seem simpler to use than box dyes. It's been many years since I've colored my hair. It's a chestnut brown and my grey is more silver. I don't hate it but the grey is dry and making me feel like I look older than I am. I'm especially interested in the natural brands that are non-permanent. For example Rishiri Kombu sounds like a decent option. Looking forward to your recommendations and experience.
