A farce called "Torch Relay"

The "Torch Relay" campaign for the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics, which is one year behind, began at J-Village in Fukushima Prefecture.。I started in Fukushima prefecture、The former Abe administration, which advocated the "Reconstruction Olympics,"、This is to appeal to the inside and outside that the influence of the nuclear power plant is all Under Control (actually, even after 10 years.、It does not stand even the prospect of taking out the debris, but)。

I watched the video of the "Torch Relay" event in Fukushima Prefecture on the Internet.。The beginning is a huge bus of Coca-Cola Company。Behind them, the buses of sponsor companies line up one after another.、Employees or volunteers dressed in red waving their hands along the road and running around、Distribute PET bottles to people who line up and applaud。I don't know where the essential runners are。What on earth is this "mere stupid fuss"?。Why this happens。Why aren't NHK and other major media outlets reporting this as it is?。

There is only one reason。The Olympics and Paralympics are not for athletes and sports lovers、Not at all for "proof of overcoming corona"、Because it's all in the interests of sponsors and IOC officials.。More than half of the people question or oppose the current Olympics、While some countries have withdrawn from participating in the event under Corona as it does not benefit the health of the athletes.、With the departure of the "Torch Relay," which can be said to be a push、This is the first event of a sponsor company。Awareness of sponsor companies that "at least want to pay for advertising expenses"、The true intention of the IOC, who wants to get a huge broadcasting rights fee, is clearly revealed.。

Drop the beautiful sound of "the torch" on the ground、This ugly event that tramples even more double and triple、It can be said that it is an act of desecrating sports as much as possible.。The IOC will take the lead in waving the flag、It is nothing but the philosophical suicide of the IOC itself。Oh dear、You probably realize that such a philosophy has no meaning other than the advertising effect.。The biggest victims are the players。Organizing Committee and Sponsors、Between the people、I think I'm in a situation where I can hardly say what I really mean。The word "torch" is appropriate for athletes。Don't let the money dead。Not a "torch relay"、At best, it should be called something like "Olympic sponsorship relay"。Under such circumstances、How to enjoy the Tokyo Olympics、I have no choice but to throw my brain into muddy water。

The word "self-polishing"

制作中。What should I do from now on?

The word "self-polishing" has come to be often heard under the corona sickness.。Telework (working by connecting each computer at work and home online) reduces the time spent on commuting.、I have time to improve my skills。Distance learning for college students (although this is also teleworking)、For some reason this is Japanese)、You will be able to freely set the class time at your own discretion、You can also get a qualification at a double school etc.、By creating an environment where you can spend time on your hobbies、Means to brush up yourself。

What I saw on the Internet was a female college student's "shape up"。It seems that it is a popular YouTuber、This is not just two birds with one stone, but three birds with one stone.、It seems to be four birds。

But、I'm always wondering where the point of view is (as is the case with everything)。Skill up is also for work at the company。If you can work smoothly in the company, it will help you to improve your position.、Certainly there is nothing I can't say for myself。But、If when you quit the company it's useless elsewhere、Isn't that skill improvement ultimately for the company?。Shape up that seems to be 100%、Where are the aesthetic standards、I have to think about why I want to be that way、You can be captivated by maniac diets and muscle training。

How about me。After corona? Put a lot of apps on your computer or iPad so that you can use them、I spend a lot of time practicing how to use it。But、Can I draw a picture if I can't use a computer?。The iPad etc. certainly feels convenient、On the contrary, there may be something to lose.。At first glance, it seems that the society is becoming a problem if you can't use a computer.、Maybe it's just a selfish belief that it's "common sense."。Don't "polish yourself" become "wear yourself"、You have to think twice。

Closed supermarket nearby

"Young people" watercolor 2021.3

A nearby supermarket closed today。At the nearest supermarket, about 10 minutes on foot from home、I went shopping as if it were a convenience store。I've been told that the store will be closed about 10 days ago.、I went to peep in the evening to see what kind of situation it was。

My wife had been out for a few days, saying "almost nothing on the shelves" or "fresh food is normal".。Finally closed today、I went out with something cheaper in the evening, but it seems that it was late。Admission is restricted、When you enter the store after lining up、Just having a "half price" tag on most shelves、Most of the items other than meat and some side dishes were gone。

I took a few shots of empty shelves and people going back and forth。I don't know the reason for closing the store so far、New construction? Newly refurbished? I don't know if it will open or close。I don't know if it's affected by the corona、Maybe it's because of the generation that the word "closed" is somehow associated with a dark image、I am particularly aware of the gap between the crowded people in the store and the empty product shelves.。Are young people catching the following information, such as "Thank you so far"、I'm calling out to the clerk with a bright voice。

I hear about the closing of small stores in the news, etc.、I didn't have much experience seeing a store of a reasonable size closing in front of me。I think that various things symbolically overlapped there and I felt a slight shock.。Not nostalgia、Anxiety like a visible step in what is about to happen。
