hello! i have been trying to find some research on sarashi, but couldn't exactly find out if sarashi was still used in the 2000s in japan. would you happen to know if they still used sarashi or was the 2000s modern enough for women to switch to sports bras and other alternatives?

alternatively, would you also know if chest binders were a thing in japan in the 2000s as another alternative?

sorry if this question is weird :,] thank you tho if you answer it!

Hi! Technically you could still use sarashi nowadays, some people do! In fact, it depends what you refers to as sarashi: the long piece of cotton which can be used to cut diapers, towels etc? Or the undergarment?

Sarashi as undergarment probably fell out of fashion because kimono fell out of fashion - and in both case were mostly replaced by Western style garments. Tbh, I only can fathom sarashi in the 2000's being used by veeery old people, during traditional events like festivals.. or by yankee delinquants wanted to look like yakuza xD

Nowadays, modern undergarments are far more easier to put on and wash + often comfier (think tech fabrics like breathable/heat textile for ex.).

Women who often wear kimono have been using kimono bra (着物ブラジャー or キモノブラ) which look something like this:

You can see how the shape is quite similar to sport bra and binders, though material is much less constrictive.

The main point of those bra is that they have inner "pockets" you can pad to fill out your figure in order to achieve a clean kimono silhouette. Pads are for ex. often added to collarbones area, see the half moons shapes on this model:

This is just part of aaaaaall the padding which can be used in kimono fashion:

youtube

Note that extreme padding was not as much of a thing before kitsuke dressing schools rose (=after kimono stopped being worn everyday by the majority of people).

Personally, I (and most of tiddy owners kimono wearers I know) use sport bra or bralette + ditch most padding* - even if it means getting a "messier" kimono line.

*I usually only pad my spine area which is pretty curved, but even then padding is not as dramatic as this one ^^;

So, keep in mind that using padding or not is pretty much up to you and depending on your body type and how confortable you are with not looking like a perfect tube (=the "dream" shape in kitsuke school kimono fashion).

Hope this helps!

well it's taken 2000+ pages but brandon sanderson finally gave me exactly what i didn't know i wanted all along: a toxic codependent friend group that took over the world

#crawling on the floor lapping up every crumb of the dalinar / sadeas / gavilar / navani / ialai totalitarian quintet #you spend 2 books thinking this government must have some form of inherent legitimacy but no it was founded 20 years ago by a group of #20 year olds who decided they wanted to 'unite the country' by killing everyone who stood in their way. delicious #stormlight is like a fererro rocher where you assume the inner layers are hazelnut but once you eat through the chocolate shell it's #actually hydrochloric acid. superb. i love when the past is not only a specter haunting the present but is in fact the very #termite infested foundation of the present causing it to collapse in on itself #i've got almost no writing done the last few days bc i've been thinking about it instead XD #stormlight archive #stormlight spoilers

Kinda ironic that ryan said "this goes beyond friendship and I love you to the core" like that's canon eddie -- but buck doesn't know because eddie has never said that in so many words (yet)

i need a platonic "i love you" between these two more than i need air

#bc yeah their friendship is the core and the foundation of them #and they love each other so much and i need them to tell each other #and i think the full recognition and voicing of that love can peel back a layer and open them to the possibility #of loving each other as more than friends too #buddie #ryan gets mail

Luke Castellan and his team of godkillers but they don't kill with weapons stained with ichor, but with the illusive Mist that warps the mind of mortals so easily, it shakes their faith.

In eons past, these mortals revered the Olympians with offerings and prayers daily, told their stories that inspired fear and awe all the same. It was something the pantheon had gotten hooked on, something more addicting than the ambrosia and nectar the texts had waxed poetry over. And the council of twelve did their damn best to keep it around. After all, there was no other high out there that can compare to the feeling of being in control, of being powerful.

But like any high, it wears off, sooner or later.

So that's exactly what happens.

Alabaster C. Torrington, with the help of Dr. Claymore, "discovers" new texts that discuss Greek gods that have never been heard of before; gods who are kinder, wiser, more trustworthy, than the ones everyone has come to know in this era.

It's interesting, how the origins of these gods and their lives seem to have no relevance or connection to the other pantheon and its history. No Titanomachy or Gigantomachy to speak of. There are a few parallels, but they are pleasant, like the love stories of Dionysus and Ariadne or Pygmalion and Galatea. Otherwise, it's like an alternate timeline of its own, where every god present is named a god for a reason.

It's fake.

But the mortals don't need to know that. For what's false, if persisted in, would become true anyways. Furthermore, it isn't like a new pantheon will harm any of them. The lucky ones with clear sight may win the heart of a deity who would actually see them beyond their fleeting mortality, who would care for them.

It takes a while, though, for the mortals to adjust to this suddenly newfound information. They are stubborn creatures, Luke knows, who tend to fear the unknown and new. Yet the youth crave it like bears after a beehive laden with honey. With time, they'll come around, he knows. Maybe he might not be there to see if the plans work out for himself, but someone would, and that's all that matters to him. He just needed to be the one to start the movement.

Luckily for him, he doesn't have to wait too long.

The faith spreads through idealized modernized takes on the mythology, as silly as it sounds. It's very of the era, isn't it? Books are being published on these gods who endure hardships and come out irrevocably changed but for the better. Ethan flips through one by an author under the pen name S.J and devours it in three hours. It reads nicely and he wonders when he'll get a chance to meet the main character of the story, and ask her if the myth holds true. It is, obviously, but it's different hearing it from a god. The fanfictions are even better, but Lou Ellen Blackstone gets drowned out by Alabaster's "lalalalala" before she can start talking about the recent one that was updated a few hours ago. Eh, so what if it's a little spicy?

Nonetheless, the new band of believers grows, and it's like a sucker punch to the gut for the Greek pantheon.

Apollo comes to camp and drops to his knees before his own cabin, surprising the campers. He looks terrible. Dionysus had already looked miserable, but the children attributed that to his sour personality. And, as usual, no one noticed the girl by the hearth who had disappeared weeks ago. But Apollo, golden boy Apollo, well, he has eyes that are sunken and sickly yellow, matted hair, muscles shrunk, and hands that shake as if they are beyond his control.

"They're killing us," he whispers to Lee Fletcher, "all of us."

"What do you want us to do?" Lee asks. Apollo coughs into his fist and looks down to see a smear of gold staining it.

A nosebleed. Gods don't get nosebleeds.

His children, gods bless them, are trying to heal him, but to no avail. It's kind of funny, how on any other occasion, such an act would have been annoying. If the solution was to simply heal, don't you think he would have tried that? But, weak as he was, he felt touched. Loved, even.

But love wasn't always enough to save another. He, of all gods, should know that.

"Can you write?" he asks. Lee scratches his head.

"Write?"

"Stories. Poems. Songs. Anything."

"Um, no, not really. Dyslexia kicks my ass, and you know archery is more my thing. But Will does sometimes. Healing is his forte, but I always see him writing something in a notebook, though that could just be medical notes, now that I think about it-"

Apollo disregards that last part and begs Will Solace to take up the pen and fight back. It's their last hope. If nothing is done, this camp and its children will become all that is left of the Greek Pantheon, for textbooks and website links are not enough to keep the faith going, especially if left to collect dust or rot in an archive.

"Write us new myths. Stories that can happen now, that we can make happen. Redeem us, so that we can live. We'll do it. We'll do any of it," Apollo begs.

"Anything?" Will asks. Apollo nods.

"Anything."

The Fates looked at each other from above. How time has changed. In the past, battles were fought with swords. Now, they had to be fought with words.

#inspired by that concept of 'downsizing' apollo mentions in TTC #where people basically killed helios and selene off by associating apollo and artemis with the sun and moon respectively #like if their existences are based on the faith of the people #then when you shake that foundation #the building comes crashing down #also the mist is something that applies to all pantheons iirc in the riordanverse; it's a layer in the duat for the kane chronicles #so essentially anyone who has control over the mist aka sense of reality is one overpowered motherfucker (looking at you torrington)#anyways #pjo #percy jackson and the olympians #riordanverse #luke castellan #alabaster c torrington #alabaster torrington #ethan nakamura #lou ellen blackstone #lee fletcher #will solace #apollo #dionysus #hestia #moirai #the fates #dr. claymore #i've tagged everyone except for one character #the author S.J #can anyone guess who that is? ;)

S2E1 of Sherlock, Mycroft goes to John to ask if they should tell Sherlock the truth about Irene Adler’s death and I don’t think anybody talks about that enough.

Mycroft of all people, who has known Sherlock his whole life- goes to John to ask if they should spare Sherlock’s feeling’s about Irene because he trusts that John has his brother’s best interests in mind, and thinks that John knows him just as well, if not more than himself. Or at the very least can give him a more in-depth look into Sherlock considering they are “arch nemesis” according to the man himself.

LIKE THEIR PRACTICALLY MARRIED AND THE SHOW EVEN MAKES FUN OF IT IN ALMOST EVERY EPISODE-

#I didn’t really word this well but I needed to get it out #my personal theory that has no basis of foundation is that for some reason the show couldn’t make them gay #so the show runners decided to layer the Married vibes on as thick as possible #I want to meet the person responsible for the writing and personally thank them #sherlock holmes #bbc sherlock #john watson #mycroft holmes

I just remember having a relatively innocent childhood and I just want that for other people, is that too much to ask.

#this is the surface layer of a deep deep lake #children have the RIGHT to a decent moral foundation dont they #children are vulnerable not just to 'corruption'#but #to being forced to approve or participate in sin #due to their position underneath the adults around them #the idea of this has always filled me with visceral horror #there is a reason Jesus spoke of such dire punishments to people who mislead a child to sin

I refuse to use concealer for my dark under eye circles.

One, I actually like how they look with the makeup and everything, and

Two, I want to let the world know I’m Tired and Over It, and

Three, I need the concealer used elsewhere.

#but I also haven’t been using concealer #just a layer of liquid foundation than light powder over it to set once it’s dried for a few minutes #and then blush as a color corrector and to make me less Elizabethan lead face paint in pallor

Guy sweating w/the two buttons choices meme but it’s like. Idk having to choose if I wanna make this a Shippy Fic or a Friendship Fic… bc sometimes the lines are blurred in my mind!!!! it could be a trio friendship fic or it could be a poly rarepair recognition moment!! And I mean I’ll use the ambiguous relationship tag sure but then on ao3 there’s also the choice of doing / or & and I feel like I’ll be obnoxious if I do both, bc since it’s a trio I’ll probably already be annoying in the tags of like doing each pair and then all three….. oughhhhhh

Like I guess I’ll just do / for ship bc that was the initial intent when I had the idea. But I also like friendship…!!!!!!!! Anthony Burch Voice sometimes things can be multiple things…..

#MAN. IDK sometimes I don’t like labeling things bc there’s layers man #ships I like. I also love the fundamental friendship foundations of them!!!#it’s about the BOND!!!!!#there’s no kissing in this fic anyway. i mean I don’t think so #maybe I could add it but I don’t want to lol #it’s a short one anyway short and lighthearted #trying to unstuck my brain. not my nanowrimos just #A DIFFERENT TWST FIC lol.#It’s riddle/azul/Jamil btw. lol.#also last night I was oc thinking bc if i continue with the nanowrimo stuff #I gotta probably figure out char and dañarte’s UM #I still don’t know for char but I maybe figured something out for dañarte #but we’ll see
