EVERYONE SERIOUSLY PLEASE PASS THIS MESSAGE AND SIGN TO SHOW YOUR OBJECTION.

IT HELPS US.

IT HELPS ME.

PLEASE REBLOG AND PASS. HELP JAPAN PLEASE.

JAPANESE GOVERNMENT IS CRAZY AND KILLING US.

I hope my followers here understand how serious I am when I mention *this type of subject* on this tumblr and ask you for help.

It’s really hard for me to tell you what’s really going on in Japan these days, for seven months since 3.11, but to tell you the very truth, my head has been pretty occupied with the threat of spreading radiation and spreading-but-secretly-hidden food contamination.

I cannot/don’t want to believe this is what is happening in my own country. sob.

follow also the links below(the videos are mostly in English)

PLEASE REBLOG AND SPREAD THIS POST, AND PLEASE SIGN. Arigato.

thank you, Kumako-san, for passing this on! ;w;
likewise, i’ll reblog this again because the deadline is close. 

please please sign if you hope to visit a Japan that is safer for the future! or if you hope to live in Japan at any point in life! it broke my heart when i heard several tourist spots i had not yet seen (like Nikko and Hiraizumi) already having become highly contaminated. and no one ever supported Chernobyl by eating all their food (unlike what’s going on in Japan right now).

if you love Japan, you know the thing to do!

For anyone who isn’t sure what this meme is all about, ‘w’ is like an equivalent of ‘lol’ in Japanese, and is an abbreviation of ‘warau’, which means ‘to laugh or smile’.  The kanji for ‘warau’, 笑, is also used in this way.

Posts will be on the slow side for a while.

Sorry followers, but there won’t be many posts for the next couple of weeks as the admin is going to be without internet in a day or two and is then flying to Japan on Sunday. I have a couple of memes queued for when I can’t get online (as far ahead as I can schedule things, that is) but in the mean time, if you have an idea for a meme, please submit it!
