C tier documentaries my beloved
#like. I'm in another documentary era as my preferred choice of media but part of my longterm tsunami special interest is like. commemorating#the events of past natural disasters. n spending time thinking about it all you know? as well as keeping up with updates n stuff so I've#been pretty tuned in to last fall's work at fukushima. so idk I spent most of my day with 14th anniversary updates and commemorations. so#I'm happy to return to the vice documentary series epicly later'd for a pre-bed palette cleanser.#also I didn't know the earthquake that triggered the tsunami was a magnitude 9.0 or something like that#(the scale goes up exponentially iirc) so it's like so much stronger than even an 8.0#idk maybe I should delete this later I can't tell how drunk I am so I hope it's all chill.#but either way. if u see this have a moment of contemplation for the effects and tragedies of the 2011 tsunami and nuclear disaster and a#moment for everyone who's still recovering from the effects#augh some of the scientific reporting I came across today had video of irl tsunami simulations (as in lab setting with real water not the#cgi recreations) and I'm missing when I thought I wanted to go into seismology. tsunami simulations was the only thing I did for the science#fair my whole life lol. but that's a happy note to end on hmm. I don't remember what the post was about before this. but idk it's been a#significant year for tsunami commemoration with the boxing day tragedy 20 years ago last december. lotta time to think about it and the#way it's still effecting so many people even in terms of regrowth of plant life and stuff. the people who are still considered missing. I'm#not sure right now. just contemplative.#🌀#🩷
