「子供を生むことがますますステータスの証のようになっているように思えてならない
本当に子供が欲しいならなんだかんだうまく行くものだと他の人は言う
しかし育児に必要な最低限の費用だけでも私には借金なしには払えない
本当に子供がほしいならアイオワ州みたいなド田舎に移住すればいいじゃないか、とも言われる
ああそれはいい考えだ、今までの人生を何もかも捨てて保育施設も何もないところで社会的に孤立しよう！」
アメリカも大変やね

例えば、One More Time,One More Chance（山崎まさよし主演映画）→秒速5センチメートル

ススキノの首切り事件、女性の方が最初レイプされておまけに動画まで撮られてたって報道がでている。
In the Susukino decapitation case, it is reported that the woman was raped first and was even videotaped.
自分には同棲している彼女がいるんだけれど、その報道見た時に、彼女がボロボロ泣き出した。
I have a live-in girlfriend, and when she saw the news report, she burst into tears.
どうしたのって聞いても泣くばかりだったんだけれど、少しずつ話してくれて、「自分も殺したかった自分も殺したかった」って言うんだよ。
When I asked her what was wrong, she just cried, but little by little she started talking to me and said, "I wanted to kill him and I wanted to kill myself."
彼女も俺と付き合う前、性暴行の被害者になってしまっていたことを話してくれた。
She also told me that she had been a victim of sexual assault before she started dating me.
もちろん警察に行ったけれど、何回も警察官相手に再現させられてそれでも犯人は捕まえられず、おまけに逮捕したとしても、起訴するまでの被害者の負担の大きさや刑事罰の軽さ（たった数年）伝えられてただただ絶望だけして帰ってきたって。
Of course, she went to the police, but after being made to reenact the crime several times by the police officers, she was still unable to catch the perpetrator, and even if she was arrested, she came home only in despair after being told of the burden on the victim to prosecute and the light criminal penalty (only a few years).
ずっと負けてたまるかと、仕事も辞めず俺とも出会って付き合ってみたけれど、ずっと辛いままで絶望は消えなくて、でも俺にも事件のことは言えなかった。
She thought she couldn't keep losing, so she didn't quit her job and tried to meet and date me, but it remained painful and the despair didn't go away, but she couldn't tell me about the incident either.
それはやっぱり言ってもどうしようもないし、言うことで自分が救われるとも思えなかったからそうだし、俺に汚れてると思われて嫌われるのもずっと怖かったらしい。
To her, there was nothing she could do about it, and she didn't think that she would be saved by saying it, and it seemed that she was always afraid of being hated by me because she thought I was dirty.
でもレイプした相手を家族総出で殺したススキノの事件見て、自分もずっと相手を殺したかったって気持ちに気が付いたら、色々耐えきれなくて言葉に出してしまったらしい。
But when she saw the Susukino decapitation case which the whole family killed the rapist, she realized that she wanted to kill him all along, too, and it seems she couldn't stand it any more and ended up speaking out.
もちろんそれを行動に移すことはできないけれど、殺したかったって言葉に出来たことに、ありがとうって言うんだよ…。
Of course she can't put it into action, but she says thank you for being able to say she wanted to kill him.
俺は、この事件の猟奇的な部分だけ見て、怖いなー、位にしか思ってなかったが、レイプ含め性犯罪って被害者を心の底から狂わせてしまうのかもしれないって彼女のおかげで気が付くことができた。
When I saw only the bizarre part of this incident, I thought nothing more than "scary", she made me realize that sexual crimes including rape might drive the victim insane to the core.
いや、正直に言うと、性犯罪が被害者に対してもたらす凶悪さを知らなかった自分自身に、今実はめちゃくちゃ嫌悪感を感じてる。
No, to be honest, I actually hate myself for not knowing the atrocities that sex crimes bring to their victims.
だってさ、普通の男が目にするエロコンテンツに、性犯罪ものって普通に多いし。自分だって痴漢ものや盗撮で抜いたこともある。罪悪感なんてほとんど感じたこともなかった。
Because, you know, there are many sexual crimes in the erotic contents that ordinary men see.
I have masturbated to molestation and voyeurism myself.
I have never felt guilty about it.
自分は普通の男だと思ってたけれど、エロと暴力？加害欲？支配欲？がごちゃ混ぜになって、もしかしたら取り返しのつかないとこまで来てるんじゃないかって怖くなった。
I thought I was a normal guy, but Eroticism and Violence? Aggression? A desire to dominate? I was afraid that I might have reached a point where I could not take it back.
人の一生ぶち壊すような行為で抜いてたなんて、自分の過去のオナニーネタ思い出すと吐き気がするようになったし、頭が割れそうに痛くなる。
I began to feel nauseous and my head hurt like it was going to crack when I remembered my past masturbatory material, that I was masturbating in an act that would ruin a person's life.
彼女は、まだたまに夜になると子供みたいにワーワー泣いてる。殺したかったって言葉を言うと安心するみたいで、そのあと寝てる。たまに、死にたかったって呟くこともある。
She still cries like a child sometimes at night.
She seems to be relieved when I say the words "I wanted to kill him," and then she goes to sleep.
Sometimes she mumbles that she wanted to die.
俺は、まだ自分のことも彼女のこともどうすることもできていない。
I still haven't figured out what to do about myself or about her.
これからもずっと一緒にいたいけれど、自分が自分に抱く自己嫌悪の向き合い方はまだどうしたらいいかわからない。
I want to be with her for the rest of my life, but I still don't know how to deal with the self-loathing I have for myself.
でも自分のことをいくら憎んだって、自分は性犯罪を行う側の性別にいるんだってことは変わらない、けど性犯罪にあう女性を減らしていきたいという気持ちはある。
No matter how much I hate myself, the fact that I belong to the gender that perpetrates sexual crimes remains unchanged. However, I do have a desire to reduce the number of women who become victims of sexual crimes.
彼女にどうしてかわからないけれど、ごめんって謝りながら、俺に出来ることは無いか聞いたら
I don't know why, but I apologized and asked her if there was anything I could do.
「今まで一人で性犯罪防止の活動に賛同してたけれど、もしよければ一緒に読んで、出来ることを一緒にしたい」って。
She said, "I've always supported activities for preventing sexual crimes on my own, but if you're willing, I'd like us to read together and do what we can together."
Change.orgってサイトで不同意性交罪の法律作ることへの署名をするとか、今まで一人でしていたらしい。（俺はこの法律自体のことも知らなかった）
She seems to have been signing petitions on Change.org to create laws against non-consensual intercourse, something she had been doing on her own until now. (I wasn't even aware of this law itself.)
I told her that I would also start signing petitions together from now on.
あと、ポルノサイトからクレジット会社や銀行が撤退するよう働きかける海外の動きが、日本に来るようにっていうのが願いらしい。
Also, she seems to have a wish that the overseas movement to encourage credit card companies and banks to withdraw from pornography sites would come to Japan.
VISAがpornhubから手を引いたんだよって教えてくれた。
She informed me that VISA has pulled out from Pornhub.
彼女が過去に撮られたかもしれない動画がネットに載っているんじゃないかって考えるたびに、撮る暴力、売る暴力、売る場所を作る暴力、買って楽しむ暴力、全部が怖くて憎くてたまらなくなった。
Every time I think that there might be videos of her from the past out there on the internet, the violence of filming, the violence of selling, the violence of creating platforms for selling, the violence of buying and enjoying – it all becomes so frightening, loathsome, and unbearable.
でもそういう場所で抜いてた自分もいる訳で。あーまた吐きそう。でも吐くだけで済む自分はなんて楽なんだろうな。180cmある男なんて、痴漢もされなきゃレイプもされない妊娠も絶対しないし。
But I've also been someone who masturbated on those kinds of sites.
But how easy it must be for someone like me who can just throw up and be done with it.
Being a 180cm tall man, I'll never experience groping, rape, or even pregnancy.
とりあえず、pcolle gcolle palpis とか盗撮動画売買サイトの決済会社(楽天銀行とか大手も普通にいるのな）には、暴力で金を稼ぐの辞めてくれって問い合わせしてみるつもり。
For now, I plan to contact payment companies of voyeurism video trading sites like pcolle, gcolle, and palpis (there are even major ones like Rakuten Bank involved) and urge them to stop facilitating violent profit-making.
It's probably pointless to talk to the website operators anyway.
なんも変わらないかもしれないが、なんもしなくてもなんの被害にも合わない加害側の性がするべき贖罪の欠片のつもりでいる。
Even if nothing changes, I intend to hold onto the fragment of atonement that comes with feeling the responsibility of the gender that doesn't experience any harm or victimization without doing anything.
俺はまだ、加害と暴力と支配とエロの境目の切り離し方がわからない。ただ日本のエロコンテンツは、あまりにもそれがぐちゃぐちゃになってることで成り立ってるのは実感としてわかる。
I still don't understand how to separate the boundaries between perpetration, violence, dominance, and eroticism.
However, I do realize on a visceral level that much of Japan's erotic content thrives on this confusing mixture.
二次元とリアルは切り離して考えろよっていう意見もあるだろうけれど、でも認知が歪まない保証なんてないし、それに二次元なら動物を虐待して楽しんでいいのかって言ったらそれには大多数の人間は嫌悪感抱くよな。それが女性が対象になると途端にOKになるのは歪んでるよな。まあそれで抜いてた俺も最低なのは今も変わらない。
While there might be opinions urging to separate the realm of 2D from reality, there's no assurance that cognition won't become distorted. Moreover, if it were about the 2D world, if someone were to enjoy animal abuse, the majority of people would feel a sense of repulsion.
It's twisted that when it involves women, it suddenly becomes acceptable.
Well, even considering that, I still haven't changed my belief that I was despicable for masturbating on such behavior.
死にたくなるほど殺したくなるほど、被害者を追い詰める性犯罪は、やっぱりエロネタとして扱っちゃいけないんだよ。
Sexual crimes that make women want to die and make woman want to kill, those that corner the victims, should never be treated as mere erotic material.
でも大切な人がその被害にあうまで、そう思えなかった俺自身、最低だな。でも出来ることをやりたいと思う。
But I couldn't think that way until someone dear to me became a victim. I'm ashamed of myself.
But I want to do what I can.

2017年の夏、ジェンマ・マクガフ(Gemma McGough)は失業していたが、英国の上位1％の富裕層の仲間入りを果たしたところでもあった。自らが経営する企業「Product Compliance Specialists」を売却し、大富豪になったため、二度と働かなくて済む境遇になった。
19年、マクガフは「Eleos Compliance」を創業し、透明性と社会や環境に配慮した企業に与えられる「B Corp認証」も取得した。彼女は新会社から給料を受け取ることにしたものの、収入の大半は投資、債券、賃貸不動産などの資産収入が占めるようになった。
すると突然、マクガフのもとに、節税のために法の抜け穴を利用する方法を指南する不穏な文書が複数の会計士から山のように届いた。そこでマクガフは給与所得に課される税率と比べて、資産売却による所得に課される税率が低いのはなぜかなのか分析した。
マクガフはふたつの結論を得た。ひとつは英国の税制は不公平だということ。もうひとつは、自分はもっと納税して社会に貢献できるはずだ、ということだった。
公平性と常識を貫くための手段
富豪たちは激しい競争を勝ち抜いて富を手に入れたにもかかわらず、なぜ「富裕層に課税せよ」と声を上げるのだろうか？ マクガフは、自分は「経済的に困窮している」労働者階級の出身なので、いまの資産で「もう十分」と思いがちなのかもしれないと語る。
マクガフは16歳で退学して最初の仕事に就き、「ノートPC2台と連絡先のリスト1枚」だけで元夫とともに最初の会社を立ち上げた。運とタイミングが功を奏し、マクガフのRFコンプライアンス企業は成長産業の一端を担うほどになった。そして欧州連合（EU）出身の労働者を雇用できたこともマクガフの成功につながった。
Patriotic Millionairesのメンバーは、健康で教育を受けた労働者人口を維持し、可処分所得がある中間層の消費者の双方を支えるためには、富裕税が役立つという経済的な根拠を示したいと考えている。裕福な実業家がより多くの税金を支払うことで、社会の安定性も高まるため、彼ら自身のためにもなると主張しているのだ。
だがマクガフは、経済格差が拡大し公共サービスが劣化している時代に、公平性と常識を貫くための手段として富裕税を捉えている。英国人の富裕層の1％は、最貧困層の70％が有する資産の合計よりも多くの資産を保有している。「社会全体が機能不全に陥っていても関係なく暮らせる大金を、富裕層が保有していることが問題だと思います」とマクガフは述べる。「国は、大富豪にしかるべき税負担をしてもらうべきです」

『愛国的大富豪』の英国支部が最近設立され、現在30人のメンバーを擁するまでに成長している。このグループは、「極端な富の終焉を加速させる」ために税制の見直しを求めている。
メンバーのゲーリー・スティーブンソン（Gary Stevenson)(35歳）は、「税制を労働者から、基本的にすべてを所有し、税金を納めず、働かない超富裕層にシフトする必要がある」と語った。
スティーブンソンはイースト・ロンドンのイルフォードの貧しい家庭に育ったが、シティバンクのトップ・トレーダーとして数百万ポンドを稼ぐまでになった。
彼は、世界が「経済災害」に向かっているという強い信念を持っている。二度と働く必要がなかった彼は、2014年に銀行を退職し、低賃金と手の届かない住宅に反対するキャンペーンブログ「Wealth Economics」を立ち上げた。
「大金持ちには基本的に何も課税されないこのシステムを何とかしない限り、この問題はどんどん悪化していく」と彼は言う。
愛国的大富豪は、キャピタルゲイン税を所得税に合わせることを望んでいる。
同グループはまた、360万ポンド以上の資産家に対し、年率2％から始まる「小規模な」累進富裕税の導入を主張している。これは全メンバーに影響するという。また、相続税の「大幅な引き上げ」も提唱している。
これは、できるだけ多くの資金を避難させようとする多くの大富豪にとっては忌まわしいものである。
(中略)
もう一人のメンバー、ジュリア・デイヴィス(Julia Davies)は、彼女が設立したバックパック会社オスプレー・ヨーロッパの株式を売却し、数百万ドルを手にした。
50歳の元弁護士は、その金の一部を使って環境基金We Have The Powerを設立した。イングランドの南海岸に2人の子供と住むデイヴィスは、昨年『愛国的大富豪』に加わった。彼女は、現在の税制は、余裕のない一般労働者を直撃していると語った。
「パンデミックによって、社会で本当に重要なのは誰なのか、真のキーパーソンは誰なのかが浮き彫りになりました」と彼女は言う。
しかし、愛国的大富豪が超富裕層を大量に勧誘する可能性はまだ低そうだ

ある意味課税されて当然の大富豪はおいとくとして、自分自身はいくらあればお金は充分か？の問題、難しいよね
ワイくんは運良く日本人に生まれ、なんとなくITの仕事をしているため、給与を貰いすぎている人々のひとりな訳だが、
レールから外れた人生を歩んでるのと、人よりもできないことが多いのと、いろいろあって面倒見ないといけないものが多いのと、
なんとなくITの仕事してるだけで別に何ができる訳でもないので、そこそこお金は稼げるうちに稼いで溜め込んではおきたい
贅沢もしたい
また犬飼いたい。フラフラ生きとるから犬や自分自身や身内がどんな状況でも責任持てるか自信無くて飼えんのよな・・・
犬飼う程度の贅沢はしたいけど、週末を過ごすためのセカンドハウスってレベルの贅沢はいらないし理解もできない(目の保養ではある)
海外も行きたい。サンフランシスコ→ニューヨーク→ハワイの3つを2週間くらいで巡りたい
でも高級ホテルではなくていい。安全で電気水でトラブル起きなそうならなんでもいい
(ハワイだけはリゾート地だからかまぁ無理がない範囲でそれっぽいホテルに泊まれそうなら泊まりたい)

本当に信じてほしいならWordreferenceかStackexchange辺りで以下の点について複数のネイティブに尋ねてこいよ
some people take being proficient in one language not being in anotherは文法的に正しくわかりやすく正式な英語かどうか
It's 1,000 years early for a young man like you to f*ck against me.のようにfuck againstをmess withの意味で使うのは一般的かどうか(普通はfuck withを使う)
あと仮にネイティブだったとしてもそれだけで信用に足るわけじゃない
菅総理の件でネイティブを信用できたのは、1人や2人のネイティブではなく全員が同じことを言っていたから
君の意見は大多数のネイティブや辞書の記述に真っ向から反対するものだから、ネイティブだったとしても参考にならない
数学や科学では大多数が間違っていて1人だけが正しいという状況がありうるが、言語は良くも悪くも多数派が絶対正義なわけ
でなければlong time no seeなんていう文法的に間違った表現は使われるはずがない
Wikipediaにもgoing toは比較的インフォーマルだと書いてある
The going-to future is relatively informal; in more formal contexts it may be replaced by the will/shall future, or by expressions such as plan(s) to, expect(s) to, is/are expected to, etc.
複複複複製を超えた適切な実体や感覚を持たず、イエスノーノーウイルスの使用はかなり隠喩的だ。「ウイルス」という言葉は複複ウイルス以上の意味を持っている。
Having no proper substance, or sense beyond its re re re replication, yes no no usage of virus is ever metaphorical. The word ‘virus’ is more re re virus.
no usage of virus is ever metaphorical
は「どんなウイルスの使用法も決して比喩的ではない＝直接的だ」
って意味じゃないんかな
そっちのほうが「ちゃんとした実体や感覚を持たずにひたすら複製するだけ」という前半部の意味とつながる
The word ‘virus’ is more re re virus.
は「ウイルスという単語は、それ自体が複製され続けるウイルスのようなものだ」
という意味だと思うんだが
Yes No Yes No Yes Yes No longer それは何を意味しているのか？しかしどうやってそれは広がるのか？
Yes No Yes No Yes Yes No longer what does it mean? but how does it spread?
これは、「Yes No Yes No Yes Yes」といった言葉に対して、もはや「何を意味しているのか」ではなく「どう広がるのか」が問題とされる、ということだろう
つまり「記号論はウイルス技術学へと転落する」ということの具体例というわけ
ちなみにChatGPTによるとYes No Yes No Yes Yes Noはウイルスが複製拡散する様子を模しているらしい
The repetition of "Yes No Yes No Yes Yes No" emphasizes the notion of spreading and replicating, similar to how a virus multiplies and propagates itself.
やれやれ、反論できないから英語でマウント取るしかないとか情けねえな
I looked through the state of the union you mentioned but it's actually a lot more informal than you made it out to be. I thought you were talking about a full fledged formal writing like legal documents, but this is definitely nowhere close to that. I can see why Biden used "going to" in this speech since it's fairly colloquial (though not over the top, just the right amount of colloquial language so the entire nation can understand it without difficulty) and thus falls well within the semantic range of the phrase "going to".
As my Dad used to say, a job is about a lot more than a paycheck. It’s about your dignity. It’s about respect. It’s about being able to look your kid in the eye and say, “Honey –it’s going to be OK,” and mean it.
Also
I write more in English than Japanese. Have been for over 10 years.
Yet you've made a basic grammar mistake here, oh well : "some people take being proficient in one language not being in another"
Should've written like this "some people are proficient in one language but not in another"
The fact you speak more definitively in a formal setting, and the fact "going to" is informal (or not) are 2 different things. Cambridge dictionary is correct in that "going to" is used in more informal setting. It's that YOU are reading it wrong. It is not an informal expression. And by the way, some people take being proficient in one language not being in another, but they can actually co-exist. I write more in English than Japanese. Have been for over 10 years.
いやいや電車の例でbe going toを使うと堅苦しすぎるとか言ってたじゃん
「be going toもまだ文語的」←こういうのもさ、ちゃんとソース示した上で言おうね
ネイティブはbe going toはカジュアルで口語的だとはっきり言ってるから
Use "will" in writing and "going to" when speaking.
https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/87900/going-to-vs-will
‘Going to’ is less formal / more conversational, and widely used for personal things that are likely to happen in the fairly near future.
For most people, "is going to" is just a more casual way to say "will". Since it is more casual, it's not used as much in formal writing, etc. Conversely, "will" often has a more formal sound, and people often prefer "is going to" in casual conversation.

you have to try to compete with me by NOT a word but a CONTETNT, can you understand?

your mounting style is typical ugly japanese way, are you aware of your ugliness?
In a discussion about the case, someone raised an objection to "someone who was not a party to the incident, who was not from Nagasaki, and who was not from Hiroshima, complaining about it. Seeing that opinion made me aware of my position, so I will say what I must say.
I was born in Nagasaki and am a third-generation A-bomb survivor.
I say this because I grew up hearing the stories of the A-bomb damage directly from those who suffered from the atomic bombings.
I feel that it is unacceptable for someone like me to speak about the A-bomb damage.
However, there are few A-bomb survivors left, so I will speak up.
In Nagasaki, children grow up hearing stories about the atomic bombing. We were made to sit in the gymnasium of an elementary school in the middle of summer, where there was not even an air conditioner or a fan, and for nearly an hour we were made to listen to stories about the atomic bombing. It was hard for me anyway.
I think it was even more painful for the elderly people who told the stories. But I don't think an elementary school kid could have imagined that. I, too, have forgotten most of the stories I was told. I can only remember one or two at most.
Another thing is that at this time of year, pictures of the victims of the atomic bombing are pasted up in the hallways.
In other parts of the country, these are grotesque images that would cause a fuss from the parents who are always nagging about them.
Recently, even the A-bomb museum has become more gentle in its exhibits, and most of the radical and horrifying exhibits that would have traumatized visitors have been removed.
I don't know how elementary schools now teach about the A-bomb damage. But when I was in elementary school, there were photos on display.
There was one photo that I just couldn't face as an elementary school student. It was a picture of Taniguchi Sumiteru(谷口稜曄). If you search for it, you can find it. It is a shocking picture, but I would still like you to see it.
I couldn't pass through the hallway where the photo was displayed, so I always took the long way around to another floor to avoid seeing the photo.
My grandfather was under the bomb and went to the burnt ruins of the bomb to look for his sister. I can understand now that he couldn't turn away or go another way.
There would have been a mountain of people still alive and moaning in the ruins of the burnt ruins. There would have been many more who would have died out in agony.
My grandfather walked for miles and miles, towing a rear wheelchair, through the narrow streets of rubble-strewn Nagasaki in search of his sister.
My grandfather was not a child then. But of course there were elementary school children who did the same thing he did. I am not speculating that there were. There were. I heard the story from him, and I still remember it.
A young brother and sister found their father's corpse in the ruins of the fire and burned it themselves. They didn't have enough wood to burn him alive, and when they saw his brain spilling out, they ran away, and that was the last time they ever saw him again.
I can never forget that story I heard when I was a kid, and even now it's painful and painful, my hands are shaking and I'm crying.
I keep wondering how that old man who ran away from his father's brain was able to expose to the public the unimaginably horrible trauma, the scar that will never heal, even after all these years.
Now I think I understand a little.
Why I can't help but talk about my grandfather and the old man now, even as I remember my own trauma.
Because this level of suffering is nothing compared to their words being forgotten.
It's nothing compared to the tremendous suffering that once existed that will be forgotten, like my hands shaking, my heart palpitating, my nose running with vertigo, and so on.
My grandfather, who went through an unimaginable hell, lived to see his grandchildren born, and met his sister's death in the ruins of the fire.
In other words, my grandfather was one of the happiest people in the ruins of the fire.
My grandfather and that old man were, after all, just people wading in the depths of hell.
I think that the suffering that even people who had experienced unimaginable pain could not imagine was lying like pebbles on the ground in Nagasaki 78 years ago, and no one paid any attention to it.
Their suffering, which I can't even imagine, is nothing compared to the countless, unimaginable suffering they witnessed, which they pretend never happened.
Memories fade inexorably with each passing human mouth. The memories that those people could never allow to be forgotten are almost forgotten.
The tremendous suffering of 78 years ago is mostly gone, never to be recounted.
Those who suffered the most from the atomic bombing died rotting in the ruins of the fire without being able to tell anyone about it.
Many of those who saw it with their own eyes kept their mouths shut and took it with them to their graves. Most of those who spoke a few words are still in their graves.
Compared to the words of the old men, my own words are so light. I would rather keep my mouth shut than speak in such light words.
But still, someone has to take over. I realize that even my words, which are so light, are only the top of the voices that are left in this world to carry on the story of the atomic bombing.
I know how it feels to think that I am the only one. Still, I hope that you will not shut your mouth. I know that I have closed my mouth because I thought I shouldn't talk about it, and that is the result.
Sometimes I almost choose to stop imagining the unimaginable suffering and live my life consuming other people's suffering for fun.
I am writing this while I still have some imagination of the suffering of the old people whose voices, faces, and even words I can no longer recall.

I have seen some posts asking if they should talk about "the case" even though they were not involved in it and were not born in Nagasaki or Hiroshima, and I am a bit aware of it, so I have to say what I have to say. I say this because I was born in Nagasaki, am a third generation atomic bomb survivor, and grew up hearing the stories of those who experienced the atomic bombing firsthand. I know it's a little bit too much for me, but I'm going to say this because there are very few survivors left.
In Nagasaki, children grow up hearing stories about the atomic bombing. They were stuffed into sushi for nearly an hour in the gymnasium of an elementary school in the middle of summer, with no air conditioner or fan, and told stories about the atomic bombing. That was a hard time for me. I think it must have been even harder for the old people who told the stories, but there was no way an elementary school kid could imagine such a thing, and I had forgotten most of the stories I had been told for a long time. I have forgotten most of the stories I was told. I can only remember one or two at most. There is one more hard thing. Every year around this time, a row of grotesque images that would drive the PTA crazy in other areas are prominently displayed in the hallways. These days, I hear that the atomic bomb museum has been bleached out and many of the radical and horrifying exhibits that traumatized visitors have been taken down. I don't know if they are still there, but they were there when I was in elementary school.
There was one photo that I just couldn't face when I was in elementary school. It is a picture of Sumiteru Taniguchi. If you search for it, you can find it. It is a shocking picture, but I would like you to take a look at it. I couldn't pass through the hallway where the photo was posted, so I always took the long way around to another floor of the school building to avoid seeing the photo.
Now I'm thinking that my grandfather, who headed into the burnt ruins to look for his sister, couldn't have turned away or taken a different path. There would have been a mountain of people still alive and moaning, not just pictures, and a mountain more who would have given up at the end of their suffering. He walked for miles and miles, towing his handcart through the narrow streets of rubble-strewn Nagasaki in search of his sister. My grandfather was not a child at the time, but of course there were children who did similar things. Not that there wouldn't have been. There were. I heard the story from him, and I still remember it. A young brother and sister found their father's body in the ruins of a fire and they burned it. They didn't have enough wood to burn his body, and when they saw the raw brain that spilled out, they ran away and that was the last time they ever saw him anymore.
I can never forget the story I heard when I was a kid, and even now it is painful and painful, my hands are shaking and I am crying. I keep wondering how the old man who escaped from that father's brain could have been able to unravel the most horrible trauma imaginable and expose it to the public with scars that will never heal.
Now I think I can understand a little.
The reason I can't help but talk about my grandfather and that old man, even if I have to rehash my own trauma, is that this level of suffering is nothing compared to the fact that their words will be forgotten. My hands shaking, my heart palpitating and dizzy, my nose running with tears, it's nothing compared to the tremendous suffering that was once there and will be forgotten.
My grandfather, who went through an unimaginable hell, lived to see his grandchildren born, and met his sister's death in the ruins of the fire. In other words, my grandfather was one of the happiest people in the ruins of the fire. My grandfather and that old man were, after all, just people wading in the depths of hell. I think that the suffering that even people who had experienced unimaginable pain could not imagine was lying like pebbles in Nagasaki 78 years ago, and no one paid any attention to it. Their suffering, which I can't even imagine, is nothing compared to the countless, tremendous suffering they witnessed, which they pretend never happened.
Memories fade inexorably every time people talk about them. The memories that those people could not allow to be forgotten are now largely forgotten; the tremendous suffering of 78 years ago is mostly gone, never to be recounted again. Those who suffered the most from the atomic bombing died rotting in the ruins of the fire, unable to tell anyone about it. Many of those who saw it with their own eyes kept their mouths shut and took it with them to their graves. Most of those who spoke a few words are now under the grave.
Compared to the words of the old men, my own words are so light. I would rather keep my mouth shut than speak in such light words. But still, someone has to take over. I realize that even my words, which are so light, are only the top of the voices that are left in this world to carry on the story of the atomic bombing. I know how it feels to wonder if someone like myself is allowed to speak about this. Still, I hope that you will not shut your mouth. This is the result of our silence.
Sometimes I almost choose to stop imagining the unimaginable suffering and live my life consuming other people's suffering for the fun of it. I am writing this while I still have some imagination of the suffering of the old people whose voices, faces, and even words I can no longer recall.
Translator's note: The original post in Japanese is a response to a post by a Japanese contributor who wondered if he was qualified to speak out on the subject of the A-bomb when he was not from Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but still spoke out about Barbie and the A-bomb. I translated it here because I think it deserves to be read by the world.
I must talk about various things regarding the Barbie incident.
I saw a post about it from someone who is neither directly involved nor from Nagasaki or Hiroshima, and it made me realize that there are things I must say.
I was born in Nagasaki and grew up listening to stories from the survivors, being a third-generation survivor myself. Most survivors are no longer with us, so I feel compelled to speak up.
In Nagasaki, kids grow up hearing about the atomic bomb. We were packed like sushi in a gymnasium without air conditioning or even fans during the scorching summer, and we listened to stories about the bomb. It was incredibly tough for me.
I imagine it was even harder for the elderly who spoke about their experiences. As a child, I couldn't fully comprehend their pain, and now, I can hardly remember most of the stories I heard. I can only recall one or two.
Every year during this time, gruesome images that would make PTA elsewhere go crazy were displayed in the hallways. I heard that many of the horrifying exhibits that used to traumatize visitors at the Atomic Bomb Museum have been removed, and the museum has been considerably sanitized. I'm not sure about the current situation, but that's how it was when I was there.
There was one photograph that I could never bear to look at as a child – a picture of Tadashi Taniguchi. You can find it if you search, but it's a shocking image with a viewer discretion warning. Still, I want people to see it.
I couldn't walk down the hallway where that photo was displayed, and I always took a different route, avoiding it so I wouldn't have to see it.
Now, I think of my grandpa who went to the ruins to search for my sister. He couldn't look away or take a different path. The pain must have been unimaginable.
Besides photographs, there were many living people moaning in pain back then, and there must have been even more who succumbed to suffering.
My grandpa walked for miles, pulling a handcart through the debris-laden streets of Nagasaki, searching for my sister.
Even though my grandpa was not a child, I'm sure there were elementary school kids who did similar things. I don't just think they might have been there; they were there. I heard the stories from the people themselves, and I still remember them.
I can't forget the stories I heard as a child, such as the young siblings finding their father's burnt corpse in the ruins and cremating him. They didn't have enough firewood, and their father ended up half-burnt. They ran away after seeing the brain tissue oozing out, and that became their final farewell.
I can never forget those stories I heard as a child, and even now, they still bring pain and suffering, making my hands tremble and tears flow.
I wonder how my grandpa, who ran away from that father's brain tissue, could expose his unimaginable trauma and everlasting scars to the world.
Now, I feel like I understand a little.
Even someone like me, who experienced such unimaginable trauma, has gone through pain that I can't even imagine being compared to being discarded, forgotten, and ignored. Compared to what those people experienced, my suffering means nothing.
My trembling hands and the palpitations and dizziness I experienced are nothing compared to the tremendous pain that many others went through.
Memories fade irreversibly every time they pass through people's lips. The memories that I couldn't bear to be forgotten are almost forgotten now.
The unimaginable pain that existed 78 years ago has mostly disappeared, and we can no longer pass it on.
The people who suffered the most from the atomic bomb perished in the ruins, rotting away without being able to convey it to anyone.
Even those who saw it with their own eyes mostly took the memories with them to their graves. Most of them are now under the tombstones.
Compared to the words of the elderly, my words seem so light. I think that speaking with such light words would be better than keeping silent, as silence has led to this result.
I feel like I might occasionally choose to stop imagining the unimaginable pain and consume the suffering of others in an amusing way to live on.
Before I forget the pain and suffering of those elderly people, whose faces and voices I can no longer recall, I will leave this here.

1994.7.25 竹内まりやのベストアルバム「Impressions」発売 山下達郎がライナーノーツを執筆 「駅」のライナーノーツ全文
「87年のアルバム「リクエスト」のコンセプトのひとつに、「他人に書いた作品を自分で歌う」というのがあり、「けんかをやめて」「元気を出して」などと同じく、この作品も、もともとは、さる有名アイドル・シンガーのために書かれたものである。
まりやは当初、この曲を自分で歌うことに難色を示していた。マイナー・メロの「歌謡曲的」なアプローチだからというのがその理由だったのだが、歌謡曲とそれ程縁のない（？）私の耳には、この曲はとどちらかといえばイタリア風に聞こえたし、また、そのアイドル・シンガーがこの曲に対して示した解釈のひどさに、かなり憤慨していたこともあって、ぜひとも自分の手でアレンジしてみたいという誘惑にかられ、彼女を説得してレコーディングまでこぎつけた。
その後このヴァージョンは有線放送で1位になるなど、今では竹内まりやの代表作のひとつとなっている。メデタシ、メデタシ」

「クリス ここまでは若くてかわいらしいアイドルにピッタリな曲が多いんですけど、「駅」とかはまた違いますよね。
竹内 「駅」は確かに違いますね。頼まれたときから、明菜ちゃんには濡れた哀愁メロディの曲を絶対書きたいと勝手に思っていて。そのマイナーメロディの雰囲気に合わせて、昔の恋人を駅で偶然見かけてすれ違う……というストーリーを彼女の写真を見ながら組み立てていきましたね。歌詞自体は当時の私が歌ってもそんなに違和感のないものだったと思いますけど、マイナーコードであれだけベタな歌謡曲メロディを書いたことはなかったんで、それ自体が面白かった。
竹内 本当にそうなんですよ。明菜ちゃんの持ってる佇まいやイメージがそういう発想をくれたと思ってます。自分で歌う曲じゃないからこそ、ああいう哀愁メロディにしたわけですから。明菜ちゃんという素材があってこその曲だったと思いますよ」
