At Mount fuji
Forget the rest of the fireworks around the world, these are the best. HNY.
The finale HOLY SHIT!!!
This is actually the first time I was impressed by a firework
For anyone interested, the music is by a composer named Thomas Bergersen, and the piece playing is called Homecoming from his Illusions album. I listen to his music whenever I need to be inspired to write.

i have this headcanon that lily evans was the type of person to wear a different hairstyle every single day. she tried really hard to try something different/new all of the time. the younger gryffindors asked her to braid their hair for them whenever she had the time.

Dean: Cheers love! Give us a kiss then!

EVERYONE SAY THANK YOU STACEY ABRAMS, A DARK SKINNED EDUCATED BLACK WOMAN TO DO THE WORK THAT SHE DID IN GEORGIA TO FIGHT VOTER SUPPRESSION, INTIMIDATION AND POLL TAXES AND TURNING GEORGIA BLUE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THIRTY FCKING YEARS
Just want to say how proud of i am of america right now. Removing a dictator during a dictatorship is near impossible (typically it takes civil war or a death/ power vacuum) but for four years you’ve been fighting back and now you’re fighting a heavily rigged, horribly unfair election and not giving Trump that “landslide victory” dictators typically get. I want you to know that many of us across the world, see those 50/50 looking results and don’t see america as half and half but 30% cultists who were given an easy vote and 70% people who’s vote was very hard to get out (we saw the lines, we saw the fake ballotboxes) and often outright thrown away. We hear that more people voted for Biden than have ever voted for a candidate before. We see your judges fighting to have every vote counted and the diverse new congressfolks you’ve voted in. The narrative of a close race omits that one team had skates on a downhill road and the other had an obstacle couse littered with dirty needles, fences to break through, barbed wire to crawl under and rabid dogs blocking the way.
I actually needed to hear this I think. All I’ve been hearing for the last few years is how terrible America is and I know that reputation is earned but I and so many other people have been fighting this whole time because we love our country and trust our institutions and don’t want to see them fall and I know we’re not the best neighbors to have but we’re trying and it makes me so happy to see that someone, anyone, understands that we’re trying.
Me, about to become the new owner of the local Denny’s
wow i wonder if that 300 year gap could be explained by any outside factors…….whoa! for some reason it lines up with the timeline of britain’s invasion and subsequent colonization of ireland! wild, huh? i wonder if the two are connected in some way? i guess the world will never know….
“why do the Irish hate the English so much? It couldn’t have been *that* bad!!”
This was in place till 1973.
Seeing non irish people reblogging this makes me happy
Whys a dead wife so common as a backstory for male heroes when divorce exists and its 10000% funnier
If indigenous ppl are talking about their struggles and how systematic oppression effect them and your immediate response is “I’m not American, it’s not like that here in (Insert country)” you’re a racist. There’s indigenous ppl where you live, no matter where you are. The Ainu of Japan, the Sámi of Europe, the indigenous Palestinians, the Äynu in China, the First Nations of Canada, the Khoeisans of South Africa, Maoli of Hawaii and many more. Stop denying indigenous ppls’ existence.
I don’t know what it’s like living with so few brain cells
I can’t believe this shit. Cause all of this is ignoring ACTUAL Terf dogwhistles.
So from me your tired fucking Trans Lesbian some of the common ones are
Rad/Radical in their url especially paired with Feminism
“Gender Critical”
Any weird spelling of woman most commonly Womyn, and ESPECIALLY Womyn-born-Womyn
A downright freaky obsession with vagina’s
Checkmark flag in description (very common on twitter)
Talk about Men invading Women’s Spaces (ESPECIALLY Bathrooms)
Talk about Men pretending to be lesbians
Talk about Men getting resources devoted to women (The last three are SO important because that can certainly happen, but who do you think the “Men” they’re talking about are? It is VERY important to have some critical reading skills here)
These are all about TERFs specifically. As in the Trans Exclusionist Radical Feminists. NOT Common Transphobia/Transmisogyny (Which is different. They are not the same) And not something that I wanna talk about right now, if someone wants to add more feel free.
The one thing I want to add is that what you should get to make sure you aren’t following TERF rhetoric is to GET SHINIGAMIEYES. A Chrome and Firefox extension! It allows you to see both pro-trans and anti-trans links!
(Btw all the “dogwhistles” in the original twitter screenshot are NOT TERF Dogwhistles if it wasn’t clear. That person just hates Lesbians)
Also if you think you are dealing with a cryptoterf its important to check who they are reblogging from
Yeah. Exactly.
Wow. Just wow. They all walked right into that… shoved their foot’s so far into their mouths they’re gagging on them.
I normally don’t reblog politics but this? This is ridiculous
This is from several years ago, but it’s not like they’ve gotten any smarter.
yeah but little remember
THEY VOTE EVERY SINGLE TIME!!!
SO GO TO VOTE AND DON’T LISTEN TO POLL
POLL IS NOT A VOTE
(questo vale anche per gli italiani , perché i minion del felpa & co sempre vanno a votare)
FRIENDS OF MINE IN PORTLAND ARE SAYING EVERY DAY THE DHS IS IN PORTLAND THE SIZE OF THE PROTESTS DOUBLE

Wholesome compares to cops killing innocent people in America.
Splatoon cops
Oh and also -
Why don’t you roll up in a futon and maybe you’ll calm down?
This is one of the dumbest takes I’ve ever seen about the police, people heard this and I see unironic comments saying “uwu japan so soft and sweet compared to barbarian usa.” Absolute nonsense!
Japan “boasts” of a whopping 99% conviction rate in criminal cases. This is statistically horseshit, and the only way to “achieve” such a feat is through a lot of lying and through the assumption that, because someone’s been arrested, then that person must be guilty.
The way Japanese law enforcement manages to convict someone, even for minor offences, is to hold them in cells under constant interrogation until they break down and sign a legal confession. The punishment can range from paying a fine to jail time, but the thing is that indefinite detention is a clear violation of human rights. Often they do it without citing any charges. Lawyers can’t access their clients. The police do not make their methods transparent. Why do you think Ace Attorney has you playing on the side of the defense? Because prosecutors and the police often work together to ensure a conviction as quickly as possible. The simple act of being arrested often means you’re fucked. And that’s not even getting into what that means for your social image and employment prospects. Japan also has the death penalty.
That quirky news report about Japanese crime being so nonexistent that cops don’t have anything to do? A total myth. Police make up honeypot traps over trivialities like stolent bikes to amuse themselves while they ignore cases of domestic violence, train chikan, and theft. The police turn a blind eye to organised crime and corruption (the seedy nature of pachinko parlours is an open secret)—often they have close relations with yakuza, and a lot of people say that yakuza aren’t a problem now, but what isn’t a problem about people who make money off child prostitution, loan sharking, and the drug trade?
What about the fact that you can’t film anything if the police don’t want you to? They can totally seize footage related to a detention and destroy it if it doesn’t paint them in a good light. A man was suffocated to death by an officer in front of a police box and the camerographer who filmed the incident was immediately told to turn the footage in to the police.
What about that Nissan exec who was jailed? Sure, no sympathy for corporate types, that’s fine, but isn’t it convenient that pretty much the only high profile arrest was of the Brazilian born French-Lebanese man? Did I mention that the police are racist and xenophobic? If you’re a Nigerian tout in Roppongi the police will absolutely keep a closer eye on you than on the middle aged salaryman groping schoolgirls on the train.
Not convinced yet? How about the fact that leftist activity and group organisation immediately puts people under scrutiny? Does anyone who called the Japanese police “wholesome” want to talk to the Zengakuren student activists who were attacked by them?
Like, it’s good that in Japan there’s a lesser chance of dying at their hands, but I’m honestly baffled that the first reaction people had when reading about them was to fawn and coo instead of getting suspicious over such positive headlines. But the reality is that cops aren’t your friends anywhere. They exist to uphold the status quo, not to really protect people—but that’d be too much of a bummer for the commenters on this thread, apparently. Taking the time to actually read about Japanese police would go against their image of Japan as this desexualised, neutered country where absolutely nothing bad ever happens.

Im reblogging myself in light of current events and because too many people in the notes gushing about “splatoon cops” got on my nerves. Japanese people are also protesting in support of BLM and i’ve already seen sooo many white expat weeaboos angrily screaming about “black politics infiltrating beautiful japan!!” 🤮
