The Radioactive Man Who Returned To Fukushima To Feed The Animals That Everyone Else Left Behind

Naoto Matsumura is the only human brave enough to live in Fukushima’s 12.5-mile exclusion zone

He fled at first but returned to take care of the animals that were left behind

He returned for his own animals at first, but realized that so many more needed his help, too

Matsumura, who is 55 years old, knows that the radiation is harmful, but he “refuses to worry about it”

“They also told me that I wouldn’t get sick for 30 or 40 years. I’ll most likely be dead by then anyway, so I couldn’t care less”

Matsumura discovered that thousands of cows had died locked in barns

He also freed many animals that had been left chained up by their owners

Many of them now rely on him for food

The government has forbidden him from staying, but that doesn’t stop him either

He started in 2011 and is still going strong 4 years later

He relies solely on donations from supporters to work with and feed the animals

His supporters are calling him the ‘guardian of Fukushima’s animals’

The man clearly has a sense of humor as well

This hero deserves way more notes.

[psychedelicsex]

There should be a way to donate to this guy

[psychedelicsex]

Actually I spent some time and I found a link to donate to him. Click here to be sent to a website where you can donate to his efforts

[sew-birb]

This guy is amazing, and reminds me of the spirits of Miyazaki’s films…it’s like he’s the guardian spirit of Fukushima’s abandoned animals

[big-wired]

If ever there is a definition of kindhearted badass, it is this dude. Please share and donate.

Heard some important information on Twitter today, and thought I’d post it here for anyone who may not have heard it. This is actually a thing, devised by human rights organisation called Karma Nirvana.

I’ll try my best to describe this. It’s a video with a mash-up of a bunch of different Disney movies, set to a song that’s a mash-up of a bunch of other songs. That in and of itself wouldn’t make it praiseworthy, but this is DONE SO WELL that just, holy cow.

important PSA about when your car is smoking

like literally smoking from the engine

white and you smell pancakes? it’s the coolant. panic and pull over, but you’ll live

a slight blue tinge? it’s the oil. panic and pull over, but you’ll live

grey, looks like fire smoke? gasoline; the most combustable and dangerous. pull over and leave the vehicle, pray.

sharing because i didn’t know this when my car started smoking white yesterday and i was so afraid for my life.

There are 3 bullet holes in my room. One grazed my arm. I am writing this post from the hospital.

I live in an apartment with my mom and my 9 year old sister. Our neighbors are drug dealers and have been terrorizing us since they moved next door. They fought their dogs in our yard. They shot my moms car windows out. They verbally threatened to assault my mom. And tonight, our apartment was caught in their crossfire. About 5 bullets penetrated our apartment, there were a total of about 30-40 gunshots I heard in all. 3 of those bullets entered the apartment right next to my bed, where I was sitting then the gunshots began. If I hadve ducked even 10 seconds later than I did, I would’ve taken 3 bullets to directly to the torso.

We have reported their activities to police three times, and all three times nothing was done. None of the officers even went over to their apartment to ask any questions. They always came in, stayed for a few minutes and listened, then left. I even showed them video evidence of the dogfights they’d have in our yard, which i would insert here but it is too graphic to show and I don’t want my identity out there. and still nothing was done.

We cannot live like this any longer. We need a new home. My mother is an entrepreneur and makes our living solely on ebay. She does well, but we still do not have any money leftover and things are always tight. I don’t have a job, I quit my job to take care of my aging grandmother who lost mobility about three months ago. We need a miracle. I am too afraid to go back to that place. I don’t know what we can do, but money talks and if we can put enough money down, we can get a small rent to own house in a better neighborhood. On top of this, I don’t have health insurance, and the bill for my er visit is looming.

Please. I saw my sister scream “I don’t wanna die” as my arm bled and I held her to try to comfort her as the shots were still firing. I don’t wanna see that again. We cannot stay here and wait for something worse to happen. If there’s any way anyone can help us, even $1, please please please I am begging you, find it in your heart to do so. And even if you can’t or don’t want to, if you’re from the u.s., help us by using your voting power to get these fucking guns off the streets and out of the hands of people like the ones who nearly killed me today.

Guys, this post has slowed down quite a bit, and we’re so so close to getting the down payment for the house, we’ve talked to the company and with my mom and my money combined with the money we’ve raised we’re only $250 away from the initial payment to move in! If you can reblog please help! It’s very much appreciated! My mom and I appreciate everyone who’s sent messages and reblogged and donated we really do. We’re soooo close to this we’re soooo close

so you’ve seen gifs of simone giertz’s shitty robots, right? of course you have.

she’s amazing. she’s hilarious. she’s a woman in STEM, kicking ass.

she just found out she has a brain tumor.

the doctors are pretty sure it’s benign, but it’s big, and she’s gonna have to have pretty major surgery which is gonna keep her from making videos for a while.

while she’s recovering, her patreon is pretty much gonna be her only source of income, so if you enjoy the gifs of her videos, or just want to support a pretty awesome chick who needs some help, you might want to kick a few dollars over that way.

(i’m not associated with simone in any way, i don’t know her - other than the fact that she favorited one of my tweets once! - but i absolutely adore her personality and her work and i haven’t seen any posts about this, so i figured i’d put something up.)

Gomez gives out better relationship advice than like 90% of dudes.

[obstinate-nocturna]

Gomez Addams is a suave motherfucker who loves his wife more than his own life.

Everyone should want a Gomez. He’s p cool.

[breelandwalker]

Gomez and Morticia Addams actually have a very loving and extremely healthy relationship, both in the old TV show and in the more recent movies. They were also one of the first television couples to be shown to have an active (albeit offscreen) sex life. Their frank attitude towards sexuality was shocking in its’ time, but their relationship and their family dynamic is actually more functional and more…dare I say it…sane than most families portrayed on TV.

The comedy in the show came from the family’s “odd” lifestyle, rather than from infighting and petty bickering, or worse, as was common on other shows of the time, thinly veiled references to spousal abuse. They didn’t make fun of each other or act like their children were creatures from another world. Were they strange and outside of social norms? Yes. Were they united in creating a loving home and being good, supportive parents? Absolutely.

These two support and adore their children, care for an aging mother and an estranged brother, put family before everything, and they love each other, wholly, fiercely, without reserve. They are every bit as much in love after at least a decade of marriage as they were the day they met.

Relationship goals. LIFE goals.

[avotica]

Just remembered in the second movie when their third child became “normal” for a period and although they were shocked and didn’t know how to handle it, they didn’t mistreat the child or love it any less. They accepted the difference, even though it was hard for them.

Posts about Gomez and Morticia Addams are almost always uplifting and I’m happy to have them on my dash, but I think my favorite bit about this conversation is what Gomez is actually saying to Fester.

It’s nobody’s surprise that many of the aesthetic and thematic elements of The Addams Family in its various incarnations are influenced by Gothic tradition (not goth, that mostly came later. And not Goth, that was much much much too early), and I think Gomez’s words are a dead bullseye in terms of Gothic mentality.

“Make her feel like she’s the most sublime creature on earth”

The sublime is a recurring theme throughout Gothic literature. Although the word (like “awesome”) has lost a lot of it’s original luster over the intervening decades, sublime doesn’t really mean elevated and lofty (or even heavenly) as it’s often used today, but rather something possessing the power and grandeur to induce awe and veneration in the mind of the beholder. Although less than divine, something sublime possessed a wildness and power that transcended human ability to control…or even to comprehend.

Sublime is standing at the edge of the Grand Canyon leaning as far as you dare over the railing and still not being able to see the canyon floor below. Sublime is warrior-queen Galadriel being tempted by the One Ring. Sublime is waking up in the middle of the night in the heart of a wild thunderstorm.

“Make her feel like she’s the most sublime creature on earth”

Gomez isn’t advising Fester to treat a woman he fancies like a princess, or even elevate her to pedestal of angelic nature (who’s idea was it to equate femininity with purity anyway? What a laughable and historically damaging idea. Shame on whatever dead (probably) white dudes promoted that!)

Gomez is advising Fester that if he truly loves a woman he must do everything he can to remind her of how she’s an untameable force of nature who’s grandeur brings him to his knees in awe and terror. Just like Morticia, for Gomez.

I’ll sign off with one of my most favorite quotes of all time, because it feels suddenly very relevant:

“When I find myself surrounded by so much beauty, I feel as if I am the eye of a hurricane.”

The reason blm belongs at pride is:

A. To show solidarity for our black lgbt siblings, especially seeing as how black trans women are victimized at a higher rate than any other group.

B. Because we share similar enemies and have similar goals, and historically, black, gay, and trans liberation have all gone hand in hand.

[glitchlight]

c. the founders of blm are lgbt and doing great work and we should celebrate and welcome them when theyre in lgbt spaces

[arathergrimreaper]

d. black trans women are literally the reason we have pride in the first place

hi everyone im still pissed we never learnt in school that shakespeare was bi and wrote the sonnets about a dude and a woc he was into

[secretgaygentdanvers]

hi everyone im still pissed that we were told emily dickinson was a spinster when she spent her whole life writing love letters to a woman

[secretgaygentdanvers]

hi everyone im still pissed about the fact that we never got taught any of the super super gay Greek myths. it seems impossible to think they managed to pick all the hetero myths when Greece was just THAT gay but guess what? they did.

[secretgaygentdanvers]

hi everyone virginia woolf was also bi im still pissed that so much of literature is queer and has queer coding within it that deserves to be analysed through that lens in the same way that we don’t ignore the gender of an author, but sexuality is never mentioned in highschool literature classes

[renthebarbarian]

hi everyone i’m still pissed that we were never taught that da vinci was gay af and that the ideal the western world has of jesus (white, long straight brown hair) was based on one of his male lovers

[cryoverkiltmilk]

The general rule? History is more feminist, less white, and more queer than you have been led to believe.

[absentmindedproff]

This reminds me of when we were talking about Frederick the great in world history when our teacher bashed our book.

“In the book it says when Frederick the great was 18, he ran away with his tutor. What the book fails to mention is he ran away with his tutor who was his lover.”

“Oh cool girls could be tutors back then!” One random kid

“No.”

The whole class went batshit.
