Never at a Loss for Words - "word" idioms

TikTok has announced it will block young users on the social networking platform from using certain beauty filters on photographs.

The filters allow users to edit photos and do things like make people's skin look clearer, their eyes a little bigger or their lips a little fuller.

Some filters also allow users to change their skin color, and it can be hard to see when a photograph has been edited in this way.

People under the age of 18 will be blocked from using these filters, some of which are created by users and others that are made by the app.

TikTok announced the changes after a report by Internet Matters, a children's online safety organization. The organization found that these beauty filters could be damaging to children's mental health because they put young people under pressure to look a certain way.

This can damage children's self-esteem and cause anxiety, experts say.

Christine Grahn from TikTok said on LinkedIn: "If our users don't feel safe, they won't bring their true selves to TikTok and the platform just wouldn't be the same."

One TikTok user told The Guardian in 2022 that she had considered getting cosmetic surgery after a period of using beauty filters on the app.

Fun filters that allow children to add dog noses or rabbit ears to images will still be available to use.

One problem with the ban is that not all users enter their real ages when signing up to TikTok. The company said it would soon be trying out new machine learning systems that could help find out when users had entered the incorrect age.

TikTok is under pressure to stop under 13s from using the platform by giving false dates of birth.

Children's safety charities want all social media sites to do more to make the platforms safe spaces for young people.

L’histoire sans filtre de la Crète

Sam is a meteor from outer space. After leaving his homeland orbit, Sam was pulled towards the nearest large planet. When entering Earth’s atmosphere, he faced so much resistance. This created extremely high temperatures which burned away layers and layers of his body. As a result, Sam, who used to be giant when floating in space, became so little that he could fit in a fisherman’s hand.
 
The overwhelming amount of pain Sam suffered as a result of his entry caused him to fall into a deep state of unconsciousness. When Sam struck the Earth, he was fast asleep. 

Waking up and opening his eyes, Sam sees nothing but a vast cloudless blue sky. An enormous wave of peace and serenity washes over him. He is like a newborn baby experiencing the wonder and mystery of life for the first time. For a few moments, this serene blueness the only mental phenomenon swimming around his meteor consciousness. Seconds later, questions appear. 

Where am I? What happened? What comes next?

Due to his traumatic experience, Sam has lost all memory of his life before coming to Earth. He rolls over and looks down the beach. There are some large laughing figures running around, chasing a flying red disk. Further away there are two large ones holding long boards under their arms while walking into the water. Closer to Sam, there are several little figures picking up other rocks and showing each other. 

“Wow, look at that one!” says one of the little boys. “It looks like emerald. With a little bit of sapphire too!” 

I wish that those boys will pick me up and take me with them… I want to explore, to see precisely what life on Earth has to offer…

“Come quick!” yells one of the boys, eagerly running straight to Sam. “Look at this one! It’s so strange and ugly, but fascinating at the same time!” 

“Grab it, quick! Before mom sees!” 

A distant voice calls for the two children to return to the family car. “Boys, we’re going now. Hurry up.”

CHI VIENE A CENA?

こんにちは！Atsushiです。
今日の天気は晴れ。
気温は26℃、暑いです。
他の地域では雨が強く降っているようです。

今日は都道府県シリーズ4つ目を話します。
今日は岩手県について、です。
岩手県は青森県の南、秋田県の東にあります。


大きさ、面積は、15,000km2
人口は、約1,190,000人

県の木　ナンブアカマツ
県の花　キリ
県の鳥　キジ

有名なご当地グルメは、(ご当地はその地域だけの、という意味です)

盛岡じゃじゃ麺です。これは、『白龍』というお店の人が戦前に、昔の満州（今の中国）で食べたものをもとに作ったようです。

そして、盛岡冷麺です。これは、朝鮮半島から日本に移住した人が盛岡で冷麺の販売をはじめたことがはじまりなようです。


最後にわんこそばです。
岩手では昔は米より蕎麦の栽培が盛んでした。
ですが、蕎麦は茹でなければならず一度にたくさん茹でる事もできません。そこで、何回にも分けて少しずつの蕎麦を出しておかわりしてもらう事で、そばを出す時間を短くしたようです。たくさんの蕎麦をゆで続けて何回にも分けて出すことで、みんながお腹一杯になるまで食べる事ができるのが「わんこそば」だそうです。


観光で有名なのは、
中尊寺金色堂(ちゅうそんじこんじきどう)ですかね。
お寺ですね。仏教思想の影響で中尊寺の庭は、極楽浄土をあらわしている、ともいわれています。
私も行ったことはありませんが、学校の歴史の授業で何度も聞いたことがあります。
これがある地域は世界遺産にもなっています。


個人的に興味があるのは、わんこそば、ですね。
そばが大好きなので、どれぐらい食べれるか、挑戦してみたいです。


ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

ではまた！
