I was watching Thunderbirds' Terror in New York City this morning and it's uncanny how that episode predicted not one but two real-life events that occurred many years later. First, Thunderbird 2's altercation with the Sentinel predicted the fate of Iran Air flight 522 in 1988,and then the collapse of the Empire State Building predicted the destruction of the World Trade Centre in 2001. Perhaps not surprisingly, this episode was pulled from Boomerang's broadcasts of Thunderbirds in the wake of 9/11, but the phrase life intimidates art certainly rings true here. And it's not the only time Thunderbirds predicated real-life events years later; City of Fire predicted the Grenfell Tower disaster, The Mighty Atom predicted Chernobyl and Operation Crash-Dive predicted the 737 MAX scandal. I wonder if some of the writers were clairvoyant!

Anonymous submission from NYC: "Actionists have defaced the facade of the Historic Blue Moon Hotel, the family business of IOF soldier and war criminal Bram Settenbrino. Black paint was splattered on their doors and windows, as well as red triangles and the message "Baby Killer". Settenbrino became known last month for publishing videos of himself firing indiscriminately at civilian infrastructure and a mosque in Gaza.
Actionists said, "This is a community-based approach to anti-imperialism. The genocide in Gaza may be happening across the ocean, but many of its perpetrators walk among us here in NYC. They should never have peace.
We take inspiration from the rich legacy of antifascism, of groups like Anti-Racist Action and the 43 Group--understanding that we have to act locally to make fascism obsolete globally. Where they go, we go.
Organize, research, map out the networks in which soldiers of imperialism pass freely between the frontline and the imperial core. Find them and give them hell."

Are 9/11 jokes funny? If so, do you remember 9/11 or not? Curious to see the results!*
*The Wikipedia article on childhood amnesia says autobiographical memory starts around age 5-6, which is why I grouped anyone younger than that with the "not born yet" demographic.

Remembering and reading about September 11, 2001
Remembering 23 years later, here are a few of those who have written about the events of 9/11/2001
The terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 prompted a profuse body of literature, including one by a woman physician forensic pathologist trainee. I reviewed her memoir here.
