Fuck the tsunami. I don't know the source of the pic, but I hope this is real. I really want it to be real.

I can see that being legit. It looks like a makeshift public bath, which are still a thing in many places in Japan (in the legit "this is where I bathe" way, not the sexy way).

I hope it's legit, too. I admire such an attitude in the face of all the devastation.

My only question is, in the midst of all this devastation, where they got the water to fill this thing up. Can't imagine too many hose bibs in working order.
