MODERATORS
Hiratsuka Raichō, born on this day in 1886, was an anarchist writer, journalist, political activist, and pioneering Japanese feminist. Her efforts helped legalize Japanese women joining political organizations in 1922.
Upon graduating from university, Hiratsuka founded Japan's first all-women literary magazine, Seitō (青鞜, literally "Bluestocking"), in 1911.
Hiratsuka began the first issue with the words, "In the beginning, woman was the sun", a reference to the Shinto goddess Amaterasu, and to the spiritual independence which women had lost. Adopting the pen name "Raichō" ("Thunderbird"), she began to call for a women's spiritual revolution.
Hiratsuka also founded the New Women's Association with fellow women's rights activist Ichikawa Fusae. It was largely through this group's efforts that the Article 5 of the Police Security Regulations, which barred women from joining political organizations and holding or attending political meetings, was overturned in 1922.

Me: Oh look, boosters from old sets of Pokemon tcg that are fairly cheap. Those will surely appreciate in value.
Purchases packs
They call to me. They yearn to be opened. The cards inside could be anything!
Someone keep me strong the cards inside are almost certainly nothing
Could be anything in those packs you know
Likely Pokemon cards though
just open the cards fam
I'm not sure i want to weep in a pile of worthless cards though
and then you can reflect on 'investing' in toys as a speculative asset divorced from what the product is being kind of sad
Can't do two things at once, right? The cards on display or in my deck have to be for the same purpose as the ones in these packs.
I understand what you're saying but working in a way to recoup the costs of my hobby is how I've managed to have it this long.
Having to live within the framework of needing money to survive is kind of sad, you're right
Just get money.
Thanks. They remain unopened
