No, it's 2.5 eggs per dollar

I totally lost my ability to tell whether or not I was hungry. I don't keep a regular meal schedule anyway so it was hard for my body to adjust back, I think.

32 hours after making a dumb bet. It messed up my appetite for months afterwards. I got $20 though. Not worth it.

That's a strange assumption to make. No, they are not all taxi drivers, shop owners, or carriers of anything especially heavy, to my knowledge.

The page you link says that Golden Hour and Blue Hour occur during both sunrise and sunset, so I'm not sure how that shows what the difference is between sunrise and sunset.

Hibike! Euphonium was directed by Ishihara Tatsuya, who has also done a bunch of other must-watch anime.
Kanon 2006, Clannad, Haruhi Suzumiya, Nichijou, Dragon Maid S, and of course Hibike! Euphonium.

This is my list of every anime that depicted the New York City WTC Twin Towers contemporaneously. That is, only including anime from 1973 to 2001. This is not about 9/11, this is about documenting how anime portrayed one of the most iconic city skylines while it was still around.
However, I believe this list is not complete. If you know of any anime that show the twin towers, please let me know so I can add it to the list. Some of these are easy to find; if they are tagged as taking place in New York on AniDB then it's a quick skim through the show/movie to look. However others, like the Kimagure Orange Road movie, are much more difficult.

Accepting pleas from other comments here, Canada could get away with about this. And if they have the whole Pacific border, I'll also throw in Hawaii for free.

I'm extremely skeptical that tens of millions of people, a huge percentage of the working population, make any significant income from TikTok. Do you have a source for that?

I looked up "bulldogging" and it seems to be where somebody rides a bull and then tries to wrestle it to the ground. You can see in the image the aftermath of the bulldogging; the bull has its head sideways and horn being held by a guy sitting on the ground. You can see his legs, coat, and face

I mostly agree although rather than saying author intention is a vital aspect of art I would say it can be, but that the raw, uninformed experience is almost always more important

So often I have friends read a book or watch a movie and say "I don't really get it, it doesn't make sense, I didn't really like it" and then some time later they'll come back and say "actually, I read the Wikipedia article about it and now I understand. The author actually intended it to be about [xyz]"
Um, what? If those themes and ideas were not evident in the original story, then what does it matter what the author intended? Surely the author also intended to write a cohesive and understandable story (and evidently failed, for you). Surely the author intended to convey those themes in the story itself. You didn't enjoy the movie, you enjoyed reading the Wikipedia article about the movie.
If author intention actually matters to non-meta media analysis, then that totally undermines anything the author actually does to convey the ideas in the work itself.
If (to make a specific example) my friend watches Mamoru Oshii's Angel's Egg and concludes only from the Wikipedia article about it that it's abstractly about Oshii's loss of religion, then that totally ignores everything in the movie that does or doesn't convey those themes just to create a shallow interpretation based on what the author was allegedly trying to do.

ie: the main character finds out that everybody else is an actor and everything aside from their own actions are staged. My personal vote is that it would be pretty funny for Death Note to end like that
