#Trump...happy after 9/11 because his buildings moved up a notch in the tallness category

He bragged his (did he really ever own more than 50% of a few buildings?) Wall St. building was THE Tallest in lower Manhattan after the #WTC collapsed

(He leased it for either $100k or $1 million USD, you know Trump, you know which is correct)

Sargeist – Unbound (Vinyl)

‘Unbound’ is both important and imposing as a black metal album in 2018 for its undeniable melodic scent and violently classic expression. It is poignant reminder of the effective thrust and utter nihilistic furor that black metal holds without complication or feigned modernism.

[06:52] Terwijl Trump om zich heen slaat, draagt Leeuwarden zijn eigen World Trade Center ten grave

Op het moment dat Donald Trump de ene na de andere handelsoorlog begint, draagt Leeuwarden zijn eigen World Trade Center (WTC) ten grave. Onbegrijpelijk, vindt voormalig WTC-bestuurder Rimmert de Jong.

On this 9/11, in #gratitude #3Goodthings #ThreeGoodThings

Grateful I returned home to my family 23 years ago.

Grateful that people still remember and reverently pay respects to those who were lost.

Grateful the #WTC was rebuilt, not as it was so to ignore or forget what happened, but bigger and better, acknowledging and in homage to those terrible events.

The world changed that day and not for the better. It’ll never be the same, we must go on.

TIL that Minoru Yamasaki who designed the World Trade Center #WTC was born in #Seattle to Japanese immigrants and went to Garfield High and the UW.

He designed the Science Pavilion for the World's Fair in Seattle in 1962, that became the Pacific Science Center #PacSci (the nation's 1st science & tech center, also TIL).

He also designed the Rainier Tower.

Fun fact: law required that the Fair's buildings be used as govt warehouses after the Fair. Yamasaki said no.

Billboard for the movie 'Collateral Damage' which was scheduled to open in theaters October 5 but after the WTC attacks it was postponed until Feb 8 2002.

Two days before this picture was taken the 2 WTC Towers would've been visible behind and to the left of the billboard w/ Schwarzeneggar's face

Sky is overcast with smoke from the WTC buildings drifting north over Manhattan on 9/12. On 9/11 winds blew the smoke over Brooklyn
