Multi-Function Power Tower Pull Up, Dip Bar Station... new gym addition

 


I can not read Japanese...
Hear we go...
PERFECT FIT!!
Fitness is my Lifestyle.

I live in a new society of unquestioning masked obidience

 


The unicorn virus has been down graded to the common cold and YET, 3 years in.... 95% of Japan is STILL masked up and boostered. Oddly, there is a sudden spike in deaths from "turbo cancer", reportedly more deaths than in WWII. Blind obedience. No one seems to notice a correlation.
A lot of restaurants especially in Tokyo, sanitize and temperature check their customers and give them partitioned socially distanced boxes to sit in... like lab rats. 
A mask is now revered as "polite etiquette and good manners." I make dinner parties at home now and do my best to avoid  the nausiating lunacy. NO, I have never worn a subservient pointless face nappy and I never will.

FOOD is your IMMUNITY. Eat Smart. Avoid doctors.

After a rediculous 3 year unnecessary scamdemic hiatus, Matsuri season is back on.



 What isa "matsuri?"  FESTIVAL FOR THE GODS
In each small town in Japan we have shrines jinja that hold gods of the city. This several thousand kilogram float kami is in the form of a large innately hand carved box made of wood and god metals, represents the good will and fortune for the people and business in the town. So every year at the beginnning and end of summer, to celebrate the shrines deity, many of the residents of each town, mostly males perform a procession, carrying the kami on their shoulders through the streets of the town mikoshi from sunrise to sunset to insure peace and prosperity for the coming year.

I participated in my town’s matsuri, a few times. Western religions are conditioned to believe one should not pray to objects and many foreigners might not find it appropriate to participate in a matsuri. I am not endoctrinated by religion. 
There is something much more to this festival than "a religious event". It is a festival latent with a profound sense of comradely and team work. The act of sharing the burden of carrying that heavy kami through the town in the hot sun all day made me feel closer to the individuals who were sharing that weight with me. Comradely is the lining that fabricates the Japanese society. People work together and share burden. The matsuri festival was not only a time of worship and celebration, it is also a time for the town’s people work hard together to replenish bonds through team work, build friendships and strengthen the town’s comradely.

日本のそれぞれの町には、神様が祭られている神社があります。1000kgもあろうかと思われる手製の木と金属で出来ている箱(神輿)に神様を乗せ、それぞれの分隊ごとにそれを担ぎ、町の繁栄や人々の幸運を願います。毎年夏の終わりに行われる重要なお祭りは、それぞれの町からたくさんの男性が、来年の地域の幸運と繁栄を願って、朝から晩まで肩で神輿を担ぎます。 私は私の町の祭りに参加しています。西洋の文化では、信仰をする心があっても、何かの形のあるものに祈りをささげると言うことはなく、外国人たちは、信仰心を持たなくても祭りに参加しています。しかし、この祭りには、ただみんなで盛り上がるだけでなく、何かがあるのです。この祭りは、深い人間関係によって成り立ちます。暑い夏の日に、重い神輿、神様を共に担ぐと言うことは、困難なことを皆で分かち合いながらやりとげるという事を教えてくれます チームワーク”です。これは日本の社会において重要なポイントです。人々は、共に働き、困難を分かち合うのです。祭りは、神を崇拝したり、祝ったりするだけでなく、友情を育んだり、町の連携を強くする、そういう意義も担っているのです。

Japan has COMPLETELY lost the fucking PLOT

 

I have not been ANYWHERE ( aside from a couple dinners which you've seen the photos), in 3 years since this unicorn virus nonsense BULLSHIT here in Japan started. It may be finished where you are but HERE... it is GUNS BLAZING PARANOIA.  I am in a shopping mall. 
*I live in the country and hardley a 5G tower exist around my area but driving into the city, huge 5G towers EVERY half a mile. I can literally feel the radiation zapping through me. The only person here with no mask. I am in HELL.
There is a really loud demanding speaker blaring on repeat  
"Wear a mask! remain social distancing! shop safe!"
"Wear a mask! remain social distancing! shop safe!"
"Wear a mask! remain social distancing! shop safe!"
Then I had a FULL BLOWN panic attack (first time). My entire body is shaking and I can barely even walk or catch my breath. Gotta take a break in the ladies room.  It took me forever to get my camera still to take this photo.  I feel like I'm in a fucking insane assilum. It is like walking amoung the fucking living dead. I dont even think these people are real. Just part of the holography. 
...
I could only stay 30 minutes and lost my appetite and desire to buy ANYTHING.  I did by a nice tie for Hidenori and some donuts for my Japanese Mama and Papa. I was an hour and 30 minute from home and it was dark outside. I was absolutely paralyzed with fear and terrified to drive. Had to make it though 5 really long tunnels deep in the mountains.  I've never been so petrified with unexplainable fear and disorientation in my entire life. I was shaking for 6 hours. 
What a fucking nightmare. Holy fucking shit.  
I cried like a baby too, when I finally made it home. 
Feeling a bit better today, but nauseous and still quite shaken up.
...
It is so very saddening for me, to experience the complete and utter deterioration of this beautiful society. Makes me sick to my stomach everytime I see a mask or the shop attendent wearing blue plastic gloves  and sterilizing them with hand sanitizer before they touch the cash register. They wont even touch your shopping bag. You have to bag it yourself. I snap, though. I make them do their fucking job and put my item in the fucking bag and hand it to me like they got some fucking sense. They do it too. Then I politely tell them Covid is fake and their masks and gloves are pointless, before I leave the shop.

10 More Interesting Things about Japan...

  • Grilled cow tongue and raw horse liver with onions and ginger are popular dishes in Japan. Both are very tastey!
  • Japan is the 10th most populous country in the world with a population we are told, of over 127 million people.
  • Melons are very expensive in Japan. One melon can exceed $400.
  • 85% of the coffee produced in Jamaica is exported to Japan.
  • When you slurp your noodles loudly in Japan, it is considered a sign that you are enjoying the meal. I've tried, but its actually difficult to slurp the way Japanese do.
  • Tokyo, the capital city of Japan, handles over 2000 tonnes of fish daily, making it the world’s largest fish market.  And Japan consumes 80% of the world's seafood.
  • The raised floors in Japanese buildings indicate where you should take off your shoes and put on your slippers. Tatami rooms indicate where you take off your slippers. I dont wear public slippers.
  • The term "Geisha" means "person of the arts". What I did not know is that the first Geisha were men. 
  • Japan experiences about 1500 earthquakes per year.
  • The life expectancy of the Japanese is about 84 years an average of 10 years more than that of the United States (according to the narrative). As many abulances Ive been hearing this year since the role out of the death jabs, I'd venture to guess those numbers will decrease.
