Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

If it did that to the buildings wonder what happened to the poor fellas inhabiting them.

Most people were incinerated almost instantly. I was there recently on vacation, went to the museum(in hiroshima, not nagasaki, but I imagine the situation similar). In the museum they have small items that survived the blast - all of them had harrowing stories associated with them. I saw pieces of clothing, shoes, shirts, rags, toys, eye-glasses and a watch that stopped the second the bomb was dropped. Most stories were similar: So and So survived the blast somehow. They were horribly injured, but somehow managed to make it back home. When they got home they were either alone or found family. Most of the time they eventually died, not due to radiation, but just severe burns all over their body, flesh dangling, bones protruding. Family members lost. Fire. Smoke. Even the people who were trying to help had severe injuries. Photos of children running naked, burned, through the city crying, with no one to help them. Photos of people in the, "hospital" it was just a bunch of cots with people about to die in them.

Very sad. But I'm sure some internet hero will come here and somehow work the rape of nanking into all of this and post links to videos and educate us on how we shouldn't feel bad for any of those innocent people. As every, single discussion about japan eventually turns into.
