Fumiko Kaneko, born on this day in 1903, was a Japanese anarchist, nihilist, and opponent to Japanese imperialism in Korea. Fumiko is perhaps best remembered for her “The Prison Memoirs Of A Japanese Woman”, written while imprisoned after being convicted of high treason against the Japanese government.
Together, Fumiko and her Korean partner Pak Yol published two magazines which highlighted the problems Koreans faced under Japanese imperialism and showed influences of their radical politics. Sometime between 1922 and 1923, they also established a group called “F"utei-sha (Society of Malcontents)”, which Fumiko identified as a group for direct action against the government.
These activities soon brought Pak and Fumiko under government scrutiny. In September 1923, the Japanese government therefore made a number of arrests, mostly Koreans, on limited evidence, and among those arrested were Pak and Fumiko.
After lengthy judicial proceedings, Fumiko and Pak were convicted of high treason for attempting to obtain bombs with the intention of killing the emperor or his son. They were both sentenced to life in prison, however Fumiko allegedly committed suicide in her cell in 1926.
Here is a short excerpt from one of Fumiko’s interrogations while imprisoned (text by Max Res from theanarchistlibrary.org):
Q: Your class?
A: A divine commoner.
Q: How are you employed?
A: My job is tearing down everything that currently exists.

i can even pretend to be a different animal with you iff i can turn off thr self-loathing cringe inhibitors
I’m not gonna lie, i always thought it be fun to play with a puppy girl/boy in a non sexual context
It’s rly rly nice, its like you get to kinda disassociate yourself from normative standards of social behavior that usually subjugate you at all times and find out and express how you rly feel. Have not been able to do in a while, is big in like furry subculture
Sry I am rly autistic lmao, also not feeling well
It is also fun
No need to apologize, comrade and I hope you feel better soon
I’m glad it’s fun on the receiving end, is it common for puppy players to enjoy playing fetch or is it too unsanitary?
Am feeling better after I got some food and stopped bedrotting
Am unsure tbh, I am mainly familiar with the furry versions of this hehe. I can’t say I’ve ever been involved in a fetch playing session but I personally would try it tbh lmao
Are you usually a caracal? Like the one in your profile pic?
