I love you all but I don't want to see 500 planning post. This is the planning post. There will be one more post and it will be the event post. Any other post will be put in the conbini trash.
From the Mega Post.
>
> Here is my 110% guaranteed to rock out recipe for hanami I've used since 2008.
>
> 0. A Location. I've always done Yoyogi park because its and absolute circus and I love that atmosphere. Everyone is drunk and you see people do dumb shit like swim in the center pond. A good location is key. It needs to be near a good tree or trees, has to be relatively easy to find, and most important you actually need to get it. Scout out the week before when the blooms are starting to blossom so you can get an idea of what area will be the most kawaii. You can do it at other parks as well but the game plan is the same.
> So on the weekend of full bloom you need to get your ass to Yoyogi at the asscrack of dawn to lay your claim. You wont be the only person there at 6am half asleep trying to put down a massive tarp. This is the only 100% way to get the spot you want the most. Pretend your the expeditionary force of a large army of party people and you must set up the forward operating base. This is your duty.
>
> 1. A blue tarp, large. The more people you have the larger the tarp needs to be. I usually go for 100sqm, but work your way up to that level of rage. 15sqm is a good starting point. Amazon has this shit.
>
> 2. A baby pool. Why do you need a baby pool? Where else will your beer and booze go. Have the size of the pool and the area of the tarps match. Amazon has this shit.
>
> 3. Booze. Especially when you can get it delivered. Always bring a couple of cases of "starter beers" to get the pool going. People should BYOB to share. You will usually end up with extra as long as ppl are not dicks. Base access is a godsend because cases of booze on base are like what 15 bucks for bud compared to 50 for a case of asahi. I also have "one weird tip for not having to drag beer halfway across the prefecture."
>
> 4. ICE. This should also be listed as #1 part 2 because ice keeps the booze cold and the people happy. There are services that deliver it in block and rock form, use blocks mostly, have some bags of rock for drinks. At least 10KG if not more to start. Have people bring a couple of bags/blocks of ice along with their booze and food as well.
>
> 5. Food. People should bring food and have enough to share. Domino's delivers and there always vendors. You will be camped out from early morning, bring and MRE or something.
>
> 6. People. Invite everyone. Most people will have multiple hanami to float by and some will base out of your party. Plus depending on the gravity of your party you might attract people from other tarps to want to chill with you.
>
> 7. A screenshot of a google map with your exact location. One zoomed in pretty close and a larger one relative to the layout of the park itself. Cell reception shits itself and maps and chat become spotty and slow. Once you have your spot picked out in the morning and your set up take screenshots of your location and post it. You can also post your GPS coordinates but if there is signal trouble people might to be able to load the map.
>
> I don't ask for money but if you have a few people help co-host if everyone chips in a bit for the first 4 items it won't be expensive. As long as people bring more than they take it works out well and everyone has a good time. There other things that could be done but these the critical items.
>
> Don't ask people for suggestions on shit just pick the spot/day/time and say this is it, bring booze, ice and food. If you set tarp, they will come. Use facebook to make a post, update people during the day, and to broadcast if you need more ice or booze.

This is actually fairly easy to find overseas as well - I've been using it for years in the US (e.g. https://www.amazon.com/Nanami-shichimi-Togarashi-Assorted-Pepper/dp/B072YWMG24 ). Now that I live here, though, I'm trying to find proprietary blends because I love it so much (/u/certnneed if you have any tips I'd love to hear them!)
I'm a teacher at Tsurumi University and I'm making this lecture open to guests who are interested in American history, particularly Pocahontas. Camilla Townsend is a Rutgers University history professor who has written a book about Pocahontas and also a book about Malintzin. The lecture will be in English, but content will be somewhat simplified for my Japanese speaking students. Message me if you're interested in coming, and I'll give you more details. It's free. Tsurumi University is on the Keihin-Tohoku Line, just one stop after Kawasaki if you're coming from Tokyo. Cheers.
These are the ones you are looking for I think... They don't have the Rollei Logo, but are the same hardware.. so unless the Rollei logo is important, I think you can pick it up at any of the large Camera stores (Bic, Yodobashi) around Tokyo... Shinjuku west exit camera-kan is probably your best bet (they have a whole floor of tripods), but the Aki Yodobashi or Yurakucho Bic will probably have it as well.

Definitely the easiest thing to do is buy a prepaid sim card. You can get 1 gig for 15 days for like $20 at a train station, airport or on amazon. Most of them you can charge more data if you need more. This is the one I'm using

Amazon Japan is a good recommendation. I constantly use them to get he's shipping is super fast
https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B07VQRCRL1/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?_encoding=UTF8&imageClass=hi-res&keywords=tsum+tsum%E3%82%B9%E3%82%A4%E3%83%83%E3%83%81&phoneCarrier=wifi&phoneType=Android&qid=1573201650&rd=1&sr=8-1&view=Touch9
If you're talking about the kind you can buy at a toy store with the wearable vest etc, they are strictly speaking not allowed if they don't have the gitei (技術基準適合証明) markings etc - like when you buy a laptop and it has the FCC markings underneath. Amazon US will not ship Recoil guns to Japan which is a likely sign they're a no-go.
Obviously plenty of people use non-regulated phones etc in Japan and it might not be that big a deal in practice, but that's why you wouldn't be able to import it and would have to buy it in the US and put it in your suitcase or something.
Beside the technical issues, I imagine if a group of foreigners were to play laser tag in a park etc they'd be counting down the minutes until someone reported it to police/security and they got a courtesy visit.
Get the Tokyo Pink Guide, it will get you started. In my experience, it's best to either speak fluent Japanese or go with a Japanese friend (I did the latter for this kind of thing).
I use this liquid detergent and just give it a good squeeze all around before starting the machine. It's nice and does not leave any smell on the dishes. I didn't really like the powder that was recommended by the brand.
Disclaimer: this is an affiliate amazon link because who does not need beer money?
Thanks I think I'll have all I need to start, Tokyu hands seems like a good place to find the basic
gearsstuff.I also saw this bad boy on Amazon but I might start with a Merkur.
>I assumed as much; I was just being snarky as per this subreddit's rules
Fair enough, rules are rules.
Hey there. If you are on a business trip in Japan again in the future, use Amazon Japan! You can ship to conbini (Convenience stores) near where you work / sleep. You don't pay anything for the pick up. SUPER convenient.

Here's a quick guide: https://medium.com/@lazypatric/ordering-stuff-online-and-picking-it-up-at-a-konbini-adac3ad98c45#.qpgfr2wbr
You make an important point about distinguishing between 'white' and 'jewish.' But, here's an article that discusses that concept:
https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2016/12/are-jews-white/509453/
There's also a book about the disappearing lines between the two groups:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/081352590X
Historically, the Irish, Italians, and others, like the Jews, were not considered 'white' in the US but eventually, due to various sociocultural and economic factors came to be included under the standard of 'white.' The problem isn't that people are white but what some people who identify as white do with that identity. Aaron Schlossberg is important, because his 'white privilege' is evident even in how he treats other Jews (with whom he disagrees).
See more on his various public rants:
https://heavy.com/news/2018/05/aaron-schlossberg/
Jews, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, etc are free to believe what they will, but to identify oneself based not on one's actions or words, but rather how one looks (skin color, gender, body type/shape, etc) can be problematic since such things aren't controllable (yes, there are instances where they are but that doesn't mean that in all instances they are).
Schlossberg might have a Jewish name and claim to be Jewish but he doesn't appear to be following the Talmud or Torah. Whatever Mr. Whitey Kentucky is following must be the cult philosophy of white: I am white therefore I am great (i.e. uncontrollable factors such as to whom one will be born make him great) and at the same time that P.OC. are not equal to him.
I'm not sure where you are getting the numbers for 95% control of trade and 60% of the slaves. These ideas seem to come from anti-Jewish rhetoric, not facts (although a fairly liberal site, useful facts):
https://www.haaretz.com/opinion/.premium-labour-s-latest-blaming-jews-for-slave-trade-1.5390569
It appears the facts that you note regarding Jews are drawn from a 1994 academic study that has proven to be quite flawed:
https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/1995/09/slavery-and-the-jews/376462/
Here, the reviewer (Winthrop Jordan) of that flawed study, the reviewer being a famed professor and scholar of slavery and black American history, debunks all those myths.
In any case, thank you for the support. I do appreciate it, but I would like to emphasize that only those who have done wrong (or benefit from wrongs) should be held responsible (insofar as they are guilty). Everyone has done something wrong somewhere; it's not about being perfect, but rather about accepting responsibility instead of shirking it for self-perceived superiority.

Maybe they are still around somewhere?
You can buy disposable BBQs from outdoor stores and Donki. Make sure the area you are in allows outdoor fires.
Like this https://www.amazon.co.jp/A-Plus-%E3%82%A8%E3%83%BC%E3%83%97%E3%83%A9%E3%82%B9-CASUS-%E3%82%A4%E3%83%B3%E3%82%B9%E3%82%BF%E3%83%B3%E3%83%88%E3%82%AF%E3%83%A9%E3%83%95%E3%83%88%E3%82%B0%E3%83%AA%E3%83%AB/dp/B06XSWH2BH/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=%E4%BD%BF%E3%81%84%E6%8D%A8%E3%81%A6%E3%83%90%E3%83%BC%E3%83%99%E3%82%AD%E3%83%A5%E3%83%BC&qid=1564977466&s=gateway&sr=8-1
It’s also on Amazon.co.jp
It’s called the “ 藍三昧 黄地草花シリーズ“ ...something “yellow” flower series...
Viewing it on Amazon in English-language mode gives us a funny translation of “bluer fucking ball” ...
ETA And, it's also available on AMAZON.COM
Albeit for around $27 instead of JPY 800...
