宅配便

制作中 F100 テンペラ

It's hot, isn't it?、と先月からもう何度書いたことか朝から「“もう今日の予定はありません”」とリマインダーに表示されるとちょっと寂しいような「“もう” だけ余計だよ」と口を尖らせたくなるような気持になります。But ok、このくそ暑いのに出かけずに済むだけマシかと自分の仕事?にかかります

Then、決まったように “ピンポーン” と宅急便が来るわたしはどちらかと言えばクーラーが苦手(体が冷えて胃腸の調子が悪くなる扇風機の風も直接は当てない)なので汗をかきながら一人の時はいわゆる“パンツ一丁(と薄いTシャツだけ)” で仕事をしていますですからそれが鳴るとあわててそこらにあるズボンなりに脚を突っ込みながら転びそうに玄関に走って行く最近では何も言わずに荷物を置いていくだけのことも増えましたがそれでも毎日のようにピンポーンが来ます

手を洗う時間もないちょっと手間取るとするとすぐ「不在連絡票」を置かれてしまいます再配達も気の毒だしこちらも面倒くさい一日に3枚も不在票を置かれたことがあります玄関に辿り着くまで数秒長くかかったからでしょう宅配の人も秒単位で動かないと仕事が終えられず待つ余裕などないのだろうと推察します
 宅配便は便利ですができれば人を使わずに済ましたいと業界では考えているに違いありませんドローンやロボットの方がもっと“酷使” できるし見方によっては単純作業の一種でもあるので効率化が進めば人件費より安くなることも可能だからです

いずれは宅配もドローンやロボットがやる仕事になるのでしょう。But、At that time、宅配の仕事をしている人たちに “時間の余裕ができた” とはわたしはたぶん思いません。probably、ただ職を失ったに過ぎないでしょうから

Imperial headquarters announcement

08/04uploaded to。Please take a look

"As little information as possible that makes you feel minor.、The method of disseminating information that "uploads as much information as possible" is called "Imperial Headquarters Announcement".、This name seems to be a sarcastic reference to the coverage of the Japanese military in the Pacific War.。Russian government in Ukraine war、Various reports from the military、People in the so-called Western world, including Japan, seem to be calling it that and making fun of it.。

But、This was not only true for the Japanese military at the time.、any country in the world、I'm still doing it (and probably will continue to do so)。In the world of sports and politics、Approximately where there is "conflict"、Depending on the time, it may turn into lip service or slander.、everywhere、I think it is necessary to consider that what happens in dimensions is rather normal.。

Us too、When you're not feeling well, you don't want to hear unpleasant things as much as possible.。Even if that is true, I want to avoid having three or four bad things happen.、I choose only unpleasant news to change my mood.、I purposely look for elements of laughter.。that's a natural feeling、On the contrary, it can lead to people being taken advantage of and letting their guard down.。That is the essence of the "Imperial Headquarters Announcement"。

Even if you are making YouTube、There is no correlation between the effort put into creating and the actual number of views.。And、When you tell people about it, rather than when it goes well.、I tend to choose stories of failure.。その方が聞く方が上位にあるという心理が働いて、Because I think you can listen to it comfortably.、This is also a small “reverse” “Imperial Headquarters Announcement” kind of thing.。Even though it was important news, I was not informed.、Because it's heavy、It's not that there aren't people who would be better off just covering their ears to the news itself.。It's a matter of degree、It is necessary to put a check mark on any information that says "may be announced by Imperial Headquarters".、Today, the end of the war approaches、I'm thinking。Tomorrow is Hiroshima Atomic Bomb Day。

where did the flowers go

“At the seaside” watercolor (in progress)

BBC reporter on the front lines of the Ukraine war、A scene from on-site reporting from the Ukrainian side。until you reach the soldier、It's just a little time、The surrounding scenery is also reflected in the shaking of the camera.、I'll come into view。Is it about waist height?、The grass is rather tall、It grows all along the side of a small road in a field.、There are lots of white flowers blooming and swaying in the breeze.。under that flower、The soldier is lying on his stomach and firing his gun rapidly.。The moment I saw the video、I couldn't help but remember the melody of "Where Did the Flowers Go?"。

"Where did the flowers go?"、As an anti-war song for the Vietnam War、At that time, it was sung by young people all over the world.。Pete Seeger wrote this song、Appears in a passage from Russian writer Sholokhov's "The Quiet Don"、Apparently it was inspired by Ukrainian folk songs.。This song is deeply related to both countries.、This may be the song I want young people in Russia and Ukraine to sing the most right now.。
This song is、America, a party to the war、It quickly spread among young people.、As the situation spread, the 20-year Vietnam War ended with America's "defeat."。

just like America、Anti-war sentiment spreads from Russia、Can we move towards an end to the war?。please、I wish it were like that、Looking at modern Russia、It is impossible to imagine the path that will lead from the rise of anti-war consciousness to its end.。unless one of us gives up、1This is a situation that I don't think will end in a year or two.。
Even if you just look at the history of Europe, you will see words like "30 Years War" and "100 Years War".。Last year, the US withdrew、The Afghan conflict, which has just reached a tentative conclusion, took 20 years.。It's been 20 years since the Vietnam War.。More than 10 years have passed since the Syrian civil war、It continues even now。We may need to be prepared for the possibility that this war will last that long.。

with many lives、Huge amount of money to throw away。I'm sure everyone thinks that if they used that money for future generations...、That feeling、Why does that flower last forever?、Will it not reach the person who is waiting?。
