The people who panicked and caused real problems?

Food shortages wouldn`t be an issue if people weren`t freaking out and hoarding. A lot of the other issues wouldn`t be as serious if there hadn`t been such an overreaction.

I probably fall somewhere toward the "downplayers" category - at least for Tokyo and it`s direct area - because there IS an area and some issues that cannot be downplayed up north. The people completely freaking out because they had to wait in line to buy rolls of toilet paper, and who think this should earn them some kind of medal aren`t going to get much more than an eyeroll from me when compared to people going through the real damage... Who don`t have electricity at all... Who can`t get any food or supplies (partially because people are freaking HOARDING SUPPLIES in Tokyo despite government appeals not to do so because they want to send them to the hardest hit areas)


If anyone is trying to find me… Tamyuun on Instagram is probably the easiest.
