The Pheasant Firefighter- One of the tales of the Buddha’s previous lives
It’s the story of the pheasant fire extinguisher, one of the oldest jātaka tales in India, are a vast body of literature from India that collects anecdotes about the Buddha's previous lives, mainly in human and animal form. Jataka stories, were depicted on the railings and torans of the stupas.
Once upon a time, a wild fire burnt down a forest. At that time, a pheasant (the previous life of Buddha), who lived in the forest, saw the fire and tried to extinguish it with his own power. The pheasant flew into the water, dipped its feathers in the water and tried to put out the huge fire with drops of water.
However, the fire was too big and the water was too little. The pheasant became tired and feeble from the frequent trips back and forth, but it did not bother him in the slightest. At that moment, the heavenly deity Śakra (Indra: Ref) came and asked the pheasant, “What are you doing?” The pheasant replied, “I am trying to save this forest because I pity sentient beings. This forest is well shaded and suitable for nurturing living beings. Many of my kind and relatives and many more sentient beings all live here as their refuge. I have physical strength. Seeing this fire, how can I be lazy and slothful and not help the forest?”
The Śakra said, “How long do you intend to stay to extinguish the fire?” The pheasant replied, “I intend to stay until I die”. The Śakra said, “Even if thy mind is so, who knows it?” Thereupon the pheasant swore an oath and said, “My heart is supreme sincere. If this belief is not vain, the fire would surely be extinguished."
At this time, the heavenly beings of the Pure Land (the colour world of purity where all desires are renounced), the great aspiration of the pheasant (Bodhisattva = the Buddha), immediately extinguished the fire. From time immemorial to the present, only this forest has always been dense and unburnt by fire.

Hi my name is Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way and I have long ebony black hair (that's how I got my name) with purple streaks and red tips that reaches my mid-back and icy blue eyes like limpid tears and a lot of people tell me I look like Amy Lee (AN: if u don't know who she is get da hell out of here!). I'm not related to Gerard Way but I wish I was because he's a major fucking hottie. I'm a vampire but my teeth are straight and white. I have pale white skin. I'm also a witch, and I go to a magic school called Hogwarts in England where I'm in the seventh year (I'm seventeen). I'm a goth (in case you couldn't tell) and I wear mostly black. I love Hot Topic and I buy all my clothes from there. For example today I was wearing a black corset with matching lace around it and a black leather miniskirt, pink fishnets and black combat boots. I was wearing black lipstick, white foundation, black eyeliner and red eye shadow. I was walking outside Hogwarts. It was snowing and raining so there was no sun, which I was very happy about. A lot of preps stared at me. I put up my middle finger at them.
"Hey Ebony!" shouted a voice. I looked up. It was... Draco Malfoy!
"What's up Draco?" I asked.
"Nothing." he said shyly.
But then, I heard my friends call me and I had to go away.
fun fact i got a strike on my twitch for reading this during a stream. i got to chapter 20 something and i like to think that a member of twitch staff had to suffer through it.

HISTORY OF JAPANESE ARCHEOLOGY AND SCIENTIFIC THOUGHT.
Episode 2:
Welcome, Japanesearchaeologicalists, to a new installment of Japanese archaeology, seen from a philosophical point of view. Having said that, get comfortable and let's begin.
—
In the previous chapter, we commented that when we are asked questions about certain topics, history, archeology and anthropology, for example: Who were our ancestors? And how did they get to X place? We mention, when archeology itself emerged at the end of the 19th century, 1877, the origin of the anthropology laboratory in 1884 and in 1895 the Japanese archeology society.
-
A person from the 19th century would ask: Who am I, where do I come from? We could ask a: German, Chinese, Norwegian, Japanese, etc. These types of questions remain unanswered to this day. History and archeology have not given them an answer, even other disciplines today know much more, but there is still a long way to go. Japan during the 19th century, especially the end of that period, did not know its own origin. Any Japanese scientist in the 1980s would wonder who were the first Japanese settlers? What led you to settle here? Currently, it is known that the first settlers arrived about 30,000 years ago. Were they the only ones? It is known that the archipelago was inhabited by other inhabitants who were the first settlers. They arrived through the peninsula of China and Korea, both from the north and the south, since the sea level was 120 times lower than today. It is known that the Japanese have two very old books, one dates from 711 and the other from 722 AD. The first is called Kojiki and the second Nihonshoki, the Kojiki tells of the founding of Japan from the year 660 AD by the gods (called kamis), this concept of the divine origin of Japan would last until World War II (2ww). These two books would be the equivalent in Europe of the oldest dating back to Greece and Rome.

Nagakura Shinpachi's letter to Sato Hikogoro in 1891
[Full-sized image]
Translation
Dear Sir,
I understand the details of your letter.
As I am about to leave for my hometown, I have a letter from Matsumoto-sensei for you, but I will not be able to see you for a while. As requested, I will send you the letter from him.
Tomorrow on the 27th, I will pass through Kyoto and Osaka to visit the temples. I will inquire about Kondo-sensei's head and the graves of comrades, and I will go to Taniai and Miyagawa to make inquiries.
I would also like to ask for your kind cooperation. I hope you will make every effort to collect all the information you can by the end of July, and I will return to Tokyo in late April to see you.
I offer my deepest sympathies to you.
March 26
Signed, Sugimura Yoshie [T/N: Nagakura Shinpachi’s alternate name]
Sato Toshimasa-san [T/N: Sato Hikogoro’s alternate name]
Please take care of yourself at this time and in the meantime, I would like to extend my best wishes to the Miyagawa, Kasuya, and Hijikata families and, last but not least, to your family.
Current location: Sato Hikogoro Shinsengumi Museum
Commentary
It’s written that he plans to go to Kyoto tomorrow to search for the burial place of Kondo Isami's head and the graves of his comrades. Since the fall of 1890, Nagakura had been scrambling to raise funds from related people for the 23rd anniversary of the deaths of Kondo Isami and Hijikata Toshizo, and to repair the memorial tombs of Shinsengumi members (currently located in front of JR Itabashi Station).
Wikipedia:
In 1868, Kondo Isami, leader of the Shinsengumi, was jailed for twenty days at Itabashi, and beheaded at the execution grounds. A memorial to him stands at the east (Takino-gawa) exit of Itabashi Station. On the right side are engraved the names of forty Shinsengumi people who died in war, and on the left, the names of 64 who died of disease, seppuku, or other causes. To the left of the memorial is a Buddha statue dedicated to people who died without relatives to care for their graves, and to the right, the graves of Kondō and Nagakura Shinpachi, who is said to have erected the memorial. There is also a stone for Hijikata Toshizō, who died in battle at Goryōkaku.
pandanotabi:
The memorial was built by Nagakura Shinpachi, who we have largely to thank for writing detailed memoirs and accounts of the Shinsengumi and their actions, in 1876. Although some have named this as the Shinsengumi Grave, this is incorrect. Despite the fact that Kondou Isami met his end in Itabashi, he is not buried here. His head was sent to Kyoto and his body to Mitaka.
The only actual grave that is located inside the memorial grounds is that of Nagakura Shinpachi.
To the left you can see a stone tablet honoring Kondou Isami, as well as the grave of Nagakura Shinpachi himself. At the center is a monument dedicated to both Kondou Isami and Hijikata Toshizou.
To the right is a large stone tablet engraved with more than 100 names of Shinsengumi men who had died in the years leading up to and immediately following the Meiji Restoration in the Boshin Wars. The very first two names are Kondou Isami and Hijikata Toshizou.
Although the memorial is well-kept and clean, it’s not well-marked. All of the locals however seem to know where it is, so if you ask you’re sure to be able to find it. There are no English explanations, and the place is not very big, but it does have a certain atmosphere appropriate for a memorial site. I would recommend going only if you’re a diehard fan of the Shinsengumi though (like me).

Today's guests are a couple from Sweden who came the day before yesterday. After the perfect sunny weather the other day, today's mountain weather was winter for the first time in a long time. They are quite impressed by the scenery, so I wanted to show them the view.
Thanks to this, we were able to show them a view like this. They were happy that they could not see such a sea of clouds because there are no high mountains in Sweden.
It's like Laputa! I asked her if Ghibli was famous there as well, and she said she especially liked Spirited Away. I would like you to see their new film,” The Boy and the Heron” It's a weird movie. It's not for people who don't like it, but I really enjoyed it.
談笑しながら、ゆっくり楽しく歩く事、小一時間。ドロップポイントに到着です。
We walked slowly and happily for about an hour, chatting and laughing. We arrived at the drop point.
Want some? Oh, Alfort. You know it. Foreigners, you should check out these Bourbon-made snacks, because they are reliable. I also recommend the Lumonde.
そんじゃま行ってみましょうか。
Let's go there, then.
うっすら新雪載っかってて見た目は悪くない。
It is not bad looking with a little fresh snow on it.
滑ってみると下地は硬め。
The substrate is hard when you ski on it.
まあ悪くはないが。
Well, not bad.
彼女はツリーランは慣れていないというのでオープン斜面をどうぞ。
She said she was not used to tree runs, so here are the open slopes.
彼はフォーフォー言いながら勢いよく降りてきました。
He came down with great vigor, saying Hooooo!!!
他はガスってるのに、我々が滑るとこだけ晴れてる。ラッキー!
It's clear where we are skiing, while it's cloudy in the other areas. Lucky!
標高下がると下地も柔らかくなり、木の間隔も広く、斜度も緩いので彼女も楽しそうでした。
The lower the elevation, the softer the substrate, the wider the tree spacing, and the gentler the slope, the more she seemed to enjoy it.
無論、彼も。
ここ、良かったね。登り返してもう一本行く?行きたい!
And him, of course.
Here, that was nice. Do you want to climb back up and go for another one? I'd love to!
登りかえしながら、植物生物学者の彼女は橅に興味津々。
While climbing back up, the plant biologist was intrigued by the beech.
うわ〜。すごい模様〜。綺麗〜。
Wow. Amazing patterns. Beautiful.
ほら見て、この苔。こんなの初めて見たわ。写真撮っといて。
Look at this moss. I've never seen anything like this. Take a picture.
確かに橅の模様って面白いですよね。
Certainly the pattern of the beech is interesting.
2本目を滑る頃には流石にガスってきました。まあ林だから問題ないけど。
By the time we skied the second run, it was foggy. Well, it's a forest, so it's not a problem.
更に降ってくると、下地が更に柔らかくなり、雪は重いけど楽しかったです。
As we skied further down, the substrate became even softer and the snow was heavy but fun.
We finished a little early, so We went to eat ramen. Even though it was a weekday, all the restaurants were so crowded that I almost became a refugee from lunch, as they say. The ramen I finally ate was delicious.
Today's AniAnimal is this white cat on Nero's head from "Hetalia World★Stars OVA". Lots of tourists asked Belgium where Nello was, and she thought they were looking for (Emperor) Nero.
今日のアニアニマルは『ヘタリア World★Stars 初収録新作エピソード OVA』のネロの頭の上の白猫です。観光客がよくベルギーにネロはどこにいるのか尋ねたが、彼女は(皇帝)ネロを探しているのだと思った。
Similar to my last post about Spanish or Portuguese , this is how to tell the difference between chinese and Japanese, because of just how similar they look! (Keep in mind I'm only studying Japanese and don't know ANY Chinese, so some of this may be off! SORRYYY!!!)
GENERAL HISTORY AND BACKGROUND:
One of the big things that makes Japanese and Chinese writing so similar is that Japanese takes many words from Chinese and puts them into in the Kanji writing system, which has over 50,000 separate characters, although the average native japanese speaker knows between 1500 and 2500. Along with hiragana, which is used for words in/from Japan. Then theres katakana which is used for foreign words, (like names and foods) and each writing system is used interchangeably and can be mixed up even in the same sentence! (Its REALLY confusing)
In Japanese too (but not for foreign words) each word can have 1 or 2 translations, either in hiragana or kanji. All Kanji does to a word is turns it into a more complicated, but more comprehensive version to make it more recognizable and faster to read. (SO CONFUSING)
For example, the word for cat in hiragana is ねこ, (pronounced Ne-ko) while in kanji it would be 猫 (also pronounced Ne-ko!). They're pronounced the exact same, but written differently.
a good example of this would be numbers! The translation to japanese would be either いち (hiragana) or 一 (kanji) both the hiragana and kanji pronunciation would be the same, which would be I-chi. In chinese, one would also be 一, but pronounced Yī this time! same writing, different pronunciations!
Although, not all Japanese words have Kanji set to them. So to fill in the gaps, they have to use the other writing systems like Katakana and Hiragana. Every sentence can be written multiple ways!
VISUAL DIFFERENCES AND.. NOT HISTORY:
So, lets say I wanted to translate "My brother Oliver is from the united states" into both Japanese and Chinese. In japanese, words like oliver and United states would be translated into katakana since they are foreign words. while in chinese they would find the closest character to match the sound.
In japanese, quotation marks are represented with 「 and 」 , while in chinese its still " and "!
Keep in mind that compared to kanji, katakana and hiragana are much simpler!
(im taking these translations from google so take the writing with a grain of salt!!)
so, in katakana, oliver = オリバー and united states = アメリカ . these translations basically sound out the words, so if you were saying it it would sound pretty close to english! (O-ri-ba, and a-me-ri-ka)
the direct translation to japanese would be 私の弟のオリバーはアメリカ出身です. pay attention to the complexity of each symbol and now look over at the chinese translation, which would be 我的兄弟奥利弗来自美国. the characters are MUCH more complicated! To make up for that, sentences in japanese are more likely to be longer length wise because of the breaking up of the words (but not always!)
So, lets try with a couple more examples! make sure to be looking at the characters and the complexity of each of them!
Sentence: I need to go to the convenience store
Japanese: コンビニに行かなければなりません
Chinese: 我要去便利店
Sentence: Which curtain should we get?
Japanese:どのカーテンを買おうか?
Chinese: 我们应该买哪种窗帘?
Sentence: Can I get another chip?
Japanese: 別のチップを入手できますか?
Chinese:我可以再买一个芯片吗?
Sentence: I was responsible for what happened to John F. Kennedy
Japanese: ジョン・F・ケネディに起こったことの責任は私にあった
Chinese: 我对约翰·F·肯尼迪的遭遇负有责任
Sentence: I like to play video games in my free time
Japanese: 私は自由時間にビデオゲームをするのが好きです
Chinese: 我喜欢在空闲时间玩电子游戏
Sentence: He asked me, "Can I pet that cat over there?"
Japanese: 彼は私に「あそこの猫を撫でてもいいですか?」と尋ねました。
Chinese: 他问我:“我可以摸摸那边的猫吗?”
Many things i have said in this could be wrong, so feel free to correct me! I just am tired of people mixing up these languages and these are some of the things that I have learned (other than knowing some japanese lmfao) have fun in whatever you choose to do with this!!

An anecdote about Sakura (Indra: Ref), living on the peak of Mt Meru
Buddha told his disciples this:
"Long ago, there was a battle between Sakra and King Asura, and the defeated King Asura was brought to Sakra's palace. However, King Asura abused Sakra violently, which Sakra listened in silence. One of his retainers asked Sakra: 'Are you afraid of King Asura?' Sakra replied, 'When an opponent gets angry like this, I think the best way to calm a foolish person is to remain calm and quiet’.” (Samyuttha Nikaya 11.1)

Please be cautious and read the title, description and warning cards on the animatic videos if you decide to watch them. If you've got specific triggers I'd recommend even more caution when watching animatics of fandoms you don't know, since sometimes canon-typical themes don't get warnings.
Please keep in mind that I don't know all the media and fandoms of the animatics provided as examples and I don't have the time (nor the will) to research them all. Don't come into my notes or my ask box complaining about them being included, I will simply block you. If a ship animatic included is about an adult and a minor, do tell me and I'll take it out of the post
ALSO keep in mind that I don't know all the artists submitted; in fact, even if I do know them I do not know absolutely nothing about them as people (I do not have twitter nor tiktok) and I could not POSSIBLY have the time to research ALL of the artists' controversies and what came of them so PLEASE don't flood my inbox with the artists' entire crime list.
JEFFREY SACHS: "We are seeing a massacre in front of our eyes—it is absolutely inhumane; it is absolutely war crimes; it is arguably, I personally think, likely genocidal according to the legal standards of the 1948 Genocide Convention. And so, all of this is shocking to me—that this does go on day by day in full view. We haven't had genocides captured by video feed day by day. We have IDF forces standing with their thumbs up as they blow up universities, mosques, hospitals, and apartment buildings—it's unbelievable. We have members of the Israeli cabinet preaching hate. We've seen these religious nationalist extremist rabbis talk about killing all the people in Gaza. 'And do you mean the children?' the Rabbi is asked. 'Yes, the children. They can grow up to be terrorists.' We're seeing things that are absolutely unconscionable, and we need Israeli leaders and intellectuals to stand up and say that is not acceptable for our country and our society. And we're not seeing it, but we need to see that. This is the first point on the scale. Well, there's no limit to what's possible because there are hundreds of thousands of people who are profoundly undernourished right now. Food rations have been to a minimum, or not rations. Actually, we have seen emaciated children come to the remaining hospitals and die. We see people swarming the food relief and then being killed. We see people being killed by the inanity of America dropping food packages and killing people underneath by the weight of these packages falling to the Earth rather than the decency of opening up a supply line for food, fuel, water, which is absolutely a necessity under the conventions of war that Israel plainly violates day by day, and the US remains complicit. So, the scale—if Israel attacks Rafah, where it has pushed the people of Gaza into an unbelievable concentration of people in the South, saying, 'That's where you're safe,' and then starts an incursion into Rafah, God knows how many more thousands, tens of thousands will die if there's no aid relief. Heaven knows what's going to happen. And so, this isn't something that we should be pondering as an intellectual or forecasting exercise; it's something that should end today, and it could end today. It could end by the United States government saying, 'We are not providing the munitions for slaughter, period.' That would end it. Israel cannot do this one day without the United States. But all the hand-wringing, all the complaining, all these supposed statements by Biden—that Netanyahu is an asshole, and I'm quoting him, I'm not making that statement, I'm quoting what has been in the papers—that's meaningless if we continue to provide the munitions. And we have the statements by Biden and Blinken that there are no red lines for Israel. It's meaningless. So, it's really amazing to me. I travel all over the world. I'm talking to leaders all over the world. People are stunned at this continuing in this way, day by day. They don't understand what's happened to the United States of America. Israel—they don't like what they see, but the United States of America, they don't understand."
ねぇ、僕の声が聞こえるなら
ちゃんとこっちを見て返事をしてよ
すぐに君が顔を背けるのは
僕の事を嫌いだからなのかい?
Come on, if you can hear my voice,
be sure to look me in the eyes when you respond.
Is it that you're always so quick to look away from me
because you hate me?
違うだろ、君はいつでもそうだ
本当の自分を僕には見せない
「欲しい?」と聞けば「い��ない」と言うし
「教えて?」と聞けば「知らない」と言う
No, that can't be it; you're always like that.
You never let me see your true self.
Whenever I ask you, "do you want some?" you reply, "no, I don't,"
and whenever I ask you, "won't you tell me about it?" you reply, "don't bother."
それでもずっと一緒にいたら
少しぐらい理解できるのかな?
時間が掛かっても
君の素直な目を見たいから
If we were always together,
would you, despite all that, be able to understand me just a little bit better?
I want to spend all my time
gazing into your steadfast eyes.
全ての原子が引き合うように
僕の心も君に近づくよ
どこにいてもいつの間にか
すぐそばに移動してるの
As if every atom of my being feels the pull,
my heart draws ever closer to you.
Wherever you may be, before I realize it
I find myself moving right to your side.
僕と君の間に働く
不思議な力に名前をつけたら
うまく言葉じゃ表せないけど
あえて言うならそれは…
I can't convey it well with words,
but if I were to put a name
to this mysterious force at play between us,
then I might even be so bold as to call it...
あぁ、やっぱり言うのはやめておこう
君が尋ねるまでしまっておこう
辛くて苦しくて泣きそうでも
優しく伝えてあげられるように
Agh, yeah, I'd better not say it.
Even if keeping quiet breaks my heart, tears me apart, and puts me on the verge of tears,
I'll set it aside until you ask about it
so that I'll be able to tell you gently when the time comes.
どうしたら良いか分からなければ
何もかも壊して捨ててしまえ
それで僕と君が
向き合えるのなら構わない
If you ever find yourself at a loss for what to do,
then just destroy everything you've got and leave it all behind.
If that's what it'll take
to bring the two of us together, I don't mind at all.
僕にとっては好きか嫌いか
ただそれだけで十分なのに
何故か気になってしまうよ
今君はどうしてるの?
In my world, deciding whether I love something or hate it
is as much as I bother to care,
but for some reason, I've developed an interest in you.
Whatever are you up to now?
全ての原子が引き合うように
僕の心も君に近づくよ
どこにいてもいつの間にか
すぐそばに移動してるの
As if every atom of my being feels the pull,
my heart draws ever closer to you.
Wherever you may be, before I realize it
I find myself moving right to your side.
僕にとっては好きか嫌いか
ただそれだけで十分だけど
一つだけ例外が存在してる
君の事だよ
In my world, deciding whether I love something or hate it
is as much as I bother to care,
but one sole exception exists.
That exception is you.
