I reblogged it earlier but I'm glad the Something Awful Forums 9/11 thread was archived because it's an incredibly important slice of internet history. For the record I think 9/11 was thousands of personal tragedies for the direct victims of the attacks but one big national farce that led to America's ongoing slide into fascism, and the nationalism and remembrance around it is a joke especially in the wake of the same amount of deaths every fucking day in the US during the height of coronavirus.

Nevertheless I think it's important that if you do not remember because you were too young or just didn't exist on Sept 11, 2001 to read the Something Awful 9/11 forums to get an idea of what the internet was like at the moment when America changed to 24 hour news cycles and renewed hyper-nationalism not seen since WWII.

This all happened before Twitter, Facebook, before Discord. Before smart phones. Before most people had cell phones. When a lot of people still had dial-up internet, even. Some people in the thread were relying on radio because internet and TV weren't keeping up.

It was a live event of internet denizens reacting to the biggest national event (and among the biggest international events) of the past 25 years. It was also a slice of what the internet was like at the turn of the millennium. Not only that, but people accurately calling out who was responsible, and what would result before the attacks even finished.

Keep in mind that the links that follow contain images of the event, lots of Islamophobia, people calling for the Middle East to be nuked, people blaming Palestine, casual racist and homophobic language (this was Something Awful after all), etc etc. They preserved the first 17 pages which spanned about 24 hours during the events. It's the origin of the "WATCH BUSH START A FUCKING WAR" screenshot.

Links under the fold. I've also annotated the pages with notes regarding the timeline and any posts of interest. Note the thread was preserved in Pacific Time even though the page says times are Eastern. That's incorrect. Post timestamps are 3 hours behind Eastern Time, which is the time zone where the attacks occurred:

Page 1 - Note the first post was edited to include images of the second attack. The thread started after the first plane hit. Second plane hitting the WTC happens here too.

Page 2 - Poster accurately calling out Bin Laden was responsible at 9:14 AM EST

Page 3 - "WATCH BUSH START A FUCKING WAR"

Page 4

Page 5 - First official acknowledgement it was a terrorist attack.

Page 6 - Pentagon hit

Page 7

Page 8

Page 9 - Commercial flights grounded by FAA (Federal Aviation Administration)

Page 10 - First mention of towers collapsing at end of page

Page 11 - More reactions to collapse of first tower. People thinking it was a bomb or yet another plane. Rumors about a fourth plane just missing the White House (these are false and predate the actual 4th plane crash by minutes)

Page 12

Page 13 - By this point there's just rampant speculation about more bombs at the WTC, the US Capitol building being hit, etc (all false). Remember this is all just people reacting to TV news and radio and the rumor mill via phone, AIM, IRC, and maybe text messages.

Page 14 - By this point internet news sites are overwhelmed

Page 15 - Second tower collapses. First acknowledgement of the fourth plane that crashed in PA.

Page 16 - There's an abrupt time jump in the threads, I think it was the result of admins pruning the activity or the SA forums going down. This page starts on 9/12 even though it is page 16. American flag signatures and ribbons start appearing.

Hunter x Hunter: Each One's Determination is now fully translated!

My playthrough of the 2001 Wonderswan Color game, Hunter x Hunter: Each One's Determination is now translated fully in English.

For content warnings, see the DTDD page. Notable warnings include pedophilia (Hisoka), misgendering (Kurapika), and an antisemitic character design (Leorio route). Due to the game being recorded on an emulator, the audio does occasionally glitch. Feel free to mute the video in these instances.

Summary:

The game follows the events of the Heavens Arena arc, where Gon and friends separate before the annual Yorknew Auction. However, the game itself also incorporates various non-canon original content. This results in a unique take on some of the characters.

In an effort to become stronger, Gon and Killua travel to Heavens Arena. However, they find much more than they bargain for, and a new kind of power.

In preparation for the auction, Kurapika sets out to Sunaka to find the agency there. Doing so, he is soon mistaken for someone else. Leorio heads home to prepare for his entrance exams. However, on the ship ride home, he comes across a mysterious woman named Hari. As Hisoka waits for the auction, he decides to follow Gon and Killua to Heavens Arena.

[addictedtostorytelling]

hiya! im starting (yet another lmao) csi rewatch in hopes of getting as many timestamps as i can, for fics. ive seen through your posts you've done something similar and i was wondering whats your earliest one? im only a few eps i to s1 but already im remebering the first few are vastly different to later episodes. there are less crime scene pictures, less evidence layouts, etc. i'm just wondering how far i have before i get an actual point to plot! 🤣

(please keep up your csi metas i love themmm <3)

hi, rewatch anon!

good to hear from you again!

so i actually have dates for the first couple of csi episodes, not based on documentary evidence—as you state, the early episodes are very sparse on any kind of helpful paperwork or timestamps, a la evidence photos, lab printouts, cctv footage, etc.—but rather on some extrapolation.

remember how in the pilot warrick places a bet on an nfl football game between green bay and san francisco for judge cohen?

well, during the 2000-2001 nfl season, the green bay packers played the san francisco 49ers on 10.15.00—which makes that our date for episode 01x01 "pilot." this date aligns with the episode's original air date also being in october 2000 (10.06.00).

while the air dates and in-universe dates for episodes don't always line up, the writers did generally try to set episodes during the same months in which they originally aired where they could.

from there, we can deduce that the action for episode 01x02 "cool change" takes place one day later on 10.16.00.

which makes that date the anniversary for when sara first comes to vegas!

coincidentally, grissom and sara get engaged to each other exactly seven years and one day later, on 10.17.07.

in episode 01x03 "crate n' burial," it is mentioned that nick has been a csi level iii for about two weeks by that point, which means that the action for that episode primarily takes place on 10.29.00 (approximately).

unfortunately, after that point, the in-universe dates trail goes cold for a while.

the next one i've been able to find is for episode 01x10 "sex, lies, & larvae," which is the first time (to my knowledge) a date shows up based on documentary evidence: the paper marker on the morgue drawer where kaye shelton's body is stored allows us to determine that the main action for this episode takes place between 12.10.00 and 12.15.00 (as kaye has been dead for five days by the time of her body's discovery).

from there, dates continue to be extremely hit or miss throughout the rest of s1. it isn't until s2 that they start to more consistently feature, appearing in most episodes.

of course, even then, most seasons still have at least one or two episodes in them i've never been able to find dates for. the first and only completely dated season i have charted out is s7! all the rest of them have gaps.

which is to say nothing of the internal chronological inconsistencies, which are a whole problem unto themselves.

anyway, good luck with your endeavors, anon! enjoy your rewatch!

please feel welcome to send another question any time!

Interview with Liz Wardley, 2 December 2023

This was really such an incredible experience, I'm mutuals with offshore sailor Liz Wardley on LinkedIn and we'd talked in DMs a few times and met IRL at the Ocean Race Newport stopover in 2018 and accidentally when Maiden was at Mystic Seaport last year. I worked up the courage to ask her if she'd be interested in being interviewed for this blog while I'm home on sabbatical this winter and she said yes! We had some trouble working out the time difference because Liz is currently in the Canary Islands getting ready to leave for the World's Toughest Row, a 3000-mile transatlantic rowing race to Antigua, on 12 December. But she took almost an hour to chat with me about childhood jungle adventures, the lucky moment that got her into the Ocean Race, pesto, rubber duckies, and what she has over Jimmy Spithill.

I think i know what exact day from March 2003 was the worst and most traumatic day in Rui's life.

It's associated with Diablomon's Revenge of course. But did you know that Diablomon's Revenge has a timestamp for its events?

[Spoilers ahead]

Ok, so before we continue I'd like to say this is mostly a speculation because there's no timestamp in the scene from 02TB version -- the one in which Rui and Ukkomon are watching the news about said events.

Diablomon's Revenge (or Revenge of Diaboromon, or Diablomon Strikes Back -- whatever you use) is the second 02 movie in the series and it's a spiritual sequel to Our War Game (which is the 2nd Adv'99 movie and also the 2nd movie in the entire anime franchise as well) which takes place a year after 02 series. The 12 most known Chosen Children from both first two series gather in order to stop a planned revenge against them -- mostly aimed at Taichi, Yamato and Omegamon. The 02 group are ordered to catch the Kuramon swarm released in the human world via a suspicious email with a very personal photo of Taichi or Yamato.

This movie has been discussed among fans as to whether or not it should be considered canon. But, i'll just quote Shiha's post about canon and Advverse --  There’s no such thing as a hard boundary between “canon” and “not canon” official material.

Recently, and in 02TB story, this movie became the turning point in Rui's life -- again -- and it played an important role in it. The pre-release stream on youtube with the 02 kids cast + mons had a peculiar timeline which also listed this movie in it. At first you could deduce they were just listing series and movies that weren't in conflict with the timeline (I'm sadly to inform but Hurricane Touchdown and ▽ have a few key elements or events that goes against the anime timeline -- but they're not omitting them out of shame or rejecting them...!) and Diablomon's Revenge has so little inconsistency with the TV series: The only reason people would consider it not part of the timeline is the fact Imperialdramon is present in the movie. And in the end of 02 series we learned that Tailmon's Holy Ring was used to unlock jogress forms for the 02 group, and since Tailmon got her ring back... But this was never confirmed or debunked, they never said they couldn't use jogress ever again after 02 events! So, this movie might not be inconsistent with the timeline at all!

ANYWAY!!

One of the parallels with Our War Game is a gag scene of a woman at the market looking up the prices of the fish. And, since Diablomon messed it up the computers, the label printer made some changes in its pricing -- in OWG, this joke has a timestamp for March 4 2000, which is the movie's release date in Japan.

But in DSB version of this gag, the price label does not use the movie's release date (March 3 2001), it uses what was speculated by a friend to be 02's final episode airing date (March 25 2001) -- and also has the price labels have Taichi's and Yamato's names in it.

So, technically… OWG events are from March 4 2000, but DSB are from March 25 2003. Keep that in mind for now.

The span of events in DSB is from afternoon of March 25th and dawn of March 26th. The film ends with the sunrise on March 26:

So pretty similar to 02TB, which takes place from the afternoon of February 28th to the dawn of February 29th and ends with the sunrise on February 29th, right?

Well, knowing this... let's skip to 02TB footage related to DSB events!

Although there are no timestamps or calendars in this scene, we know that it could be sunset on March 26th.

Which means... the day everything went awfully bad to Rui (again) was on the evening of March 26 2003.

I attended high school from 1999 to 2003. The official timestamp from @djtameil for #jerseyclub is 2001, and I’ve been dancing to it since then, continuing to this day. That alone should indicate who the real #jerseyclub dance OG’s are. I’m grateful to still be involved and to have the opportunity to serve communities and individuals who seek it from an authentic source. Thank you to our ‘03 high school committee for hosting such a wonderful event.

Round 1, Poll 3

Propaganda for The Producers:

It's a big, classic overture which could totally pass for a Golden Age show if it wasn't written in 2001! Nobody does overtures like this anymore - except, apparently, The Producers. I was going to provide a timestamp for the best part until I realized I couldn't decide on a best part. Just listen to it!!

Propaganda for Die Fledermaus:

I'm submitting this because it was one of the first pieces I played with a full orchestra. I have many good memories from it :) (also it was fun to play, even from a viola perspective).

Feel free to rb with any additional propaganda and I will rb it here

EMESIS BLUE

Is a full length feature SFM film (1:48:34) produced by Fortress Films over the course of four+ years. It details the events of Halloween night of 1968, as well as the weekend that follows. It's been called many things: a horror, a psychological thriller, an "acid trip of a film", but there is only one word I would use for it, and that is masterful.

Now, because of the dark nature of the film and the influence it lovingly takes from Kubrick films such as The Shining and 2001: A Space Odyssey, this is not an experience you should go into if you struggle with the themes presented in either of those films. These include hallucinatory sequences, major overarching themes of dereality, and several other potentially triggering things detailed here on a doesthedogdie page (link in reblog) started by @/alienseason . This user is also working on a full timestamped TW list for the film as well. Please show him support, and if you have anything to contribute to these projects, please do.

This is a film largely based within the lore of Team Fortress 2, and uses characters from the Builder's League United (BLU) team, with BLU Medic, Soldier, Spy, and Scout featuring the most prominently (and in that order). There are several clear diversions from the lore, however, and it holds a much more serious tone than the TF2 game and comics.

I will have more analysis, thoughts, and descriptions in posts to follow. Please go support this film!

Historic Spanish-Style Mansion from 1930

Location: Yamashitacho, Naka-ku, Yokohama, Japan Timestamp: 15:11 April 4, 2023

Berrick Hall, a registered historical building in Yokohama, was designed by American architect J.H. Morgan in 1930 as the residence of British trader B.R. Berwick. It is built in a distinctive Spanish style and features small quatrefoil windows and a tiled roof with a chimney. It was the largest residence in the pre-war district of Yamate, known for being a foreign residential area.

After being used as a residence until the start of World War II, it was donated to the Catholic Society of Mary in 1956 and was used as a dormitory for St. Joseph International School until 2000. Today, it is open to the public and is a popular wedding venue. The interior features black-and-white checkered tiles, frescoes on the walls, and lovely ironwork on the entryway and stairs.

Berrick Hall has many highlights, including a unique sunroom furnished with a lion-masked wall fountain and a women's bedroom sunroom with glimpses of the Yokohama Port. In 2001, the city of Yokohama purchased the site, and after restoration and repair work, the building and garden have been open to the public since 2002.
