Some good Japan election news: Bigot Sugita Mio, who's called LGBTQ people "unproductive" and referred to Ainu people as "cosplayers," has lost her bid for a seat in Japan's Upper House. Seems voters have had enough of her hateful theatrics.
I'm sure we haven't heard the last from this cosplay politician. But for now, at least, she continues to have zero voice in Japan's government.

The image is a cartoon depicting a humorous interaction between a man and a woman. The man, seated at a desk with a computer, appears shocked and confused. He has a balding head, a large nose, and is wearing a white shirt. The woman, standing beside him, has long black hair, wears a pink top and pink pants, and looks concerned. The man is saying, "But how can it be fake if it says exactly what I think?" while the woman responds, "No, Dad... that's fake news." The background is a simple blue, and the artist's signature, "Daniel Paz," is visible in the bottom left corner. The cartoon humorously addresses the issue of misinformation and the tendency to believe information that aligns with one's preconceived notions.
