Of Course.

Of course.

Please be honest.....reblog if you actually care about me

Well I didn't know that. but yeah 4% and heavily censored does sound more accurate. God I hope Kim is not into the MLP fandom. Unlike Trump, we don't want that kind of association in our community. And i would have nothing personal against the NK people accept their biggest pastime is reportedly daydreaming about killing me and my family. So you'll forgive my lack of interest in their culture. But if I'm mistaken I apologize on behalf of your friend. Only negative stuff makes it to the US.

Well to put it bluntly, how the average NK people there are living doesn’t seem too far off from how most Japanese were living during the Imperial times, which regrettably didn’t even know what was happening outside of their lands. Much of their lives, from the divine leader worship & fervour to the edging on starvation & desperation, much resemble how many NK folks (including soldiers) are facing these & are often weakened or even dead from hunger.

The Untold Story of Japan's First People

In the 20th century, Japanese anthropologists and officials tried to hide the existence of the Indigenous Ainu. Then the Ainu fought back.

Yet some examples that show that traditional or not, cultures don’t necessarily die, but they evolve with the times. In fact, cultures live on by adapting to the times (including the modern), & the Ainu culture is doing just that especially after the recognition of the group. In light of the old ways dying, may the new Ainu ways make way for use while old ways be preserved. Either way, may the tongue be taken with the other cultural facets for modern timing.

(Take this picture into your heart.) Given my parents religious backgrounds, this ties into how despite my mother having been daughter of a shrine keeper, it doesn’t conflict with the Buddhist traditions kept bey her side of the family. Both have quite some Buddhist traditions (Mahayana & Vajrayana respectively) along with Shintoism & Tengriism (by the respective parents) in a syncretic form, as is common in the societies of East & Central Asia. Choose your own spiritual path, but think well on the picture above while making your own choice.

Little Nephew’s day

Today (morning for me & brother’s family) is my younger nephew Ishijiro’s first birthday, so if you’d like to say something in wishing a safe day, please don’t hesitate to say it. I really can’t wait to video chat with my brother later today. Don’t be afraid to send a little something, I’ll be sure to pass it along.
