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.

Here - because I've now found it - is an image of the Observation Deck, on Tower 2 (South) just across and slightly below Tower 1, from where this was taken (closed to the public; no guard rail).
In the foreground is the track which was used by an automated window washing machine.

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.

Twin Towers, 9/11, USpol, gender issues, snark, really long-ass post
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.
is it me, or are there no #9/11 toots ?
if no one is talking about this
WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE

The majestic WorldTradeCenter's awe-inspiring architecture reaches towards the expansive sky as it stands proudly as the centerpiece of the image.

The resolute spirit of New York City takes center stage, with the Oculus dominating the foreground and the iconic One World Trade Center piercing the sky with its commanding presence.

I commuted past #GroundZero and #WTC for years and I remember thinking how much emotional damage everyday commuters were suppressing on a daily basis.
Eventually, it will be another “day that lives in infamy”, but, to your point, a couple generations away.
Windows on the side of the Oculus at the World Trade Center.

Ce qu’on regroupe sous le vocable de #cryptographie existe depuis les débuts de la civilisation : dissimuler une information.
Au début, on utilisait des principes de #stéganographie : on cachait le message.
- Encres sympathiques au jus de citron
- Messages écrits sur le crâne des messagers, dont on rasait la tête au préalable
- Messages écrits sur des œufs durs
- Messages cachés dans des jpg (#911 #wtc)
Etc…souci : si le message est trouvé, son sens est révélé, ballot.

#nineeleven #worldtradecenter #wtc I’ll never forget 9/11, and still struggle with the mentality of people who think such violence is justifiable.
Even today the wars continue, and my thoughts are with the innocent victims, both past and present.
Will humanity ever learn?

@StevenBeschloss No one, who's ever seen the scenes of panicking human beings scared to burn to death will ever forget the subsequent sounds of their bodies hitting the porch roofs & the grounds all around the burning WTC towers.

#OnThisDay, August 7, 1974, Philippe Petit performed a high wire act between the twin towers of the World Trade Center 1,368 feet (417 m) in the air (depicted in The Walk, 2015)

Ich dachte erst, New York setzt neue Maßstäbe bei #ProtectedBikelane aber angesichts der Lage neben dem #WTC haben die Poller wohl doch einen anderen Grund.

@DemocracyMattersALot #GeorgetownUniversity, #SyracuseUniversity, #StJohnFisherUniversity, #LoyolaUniversity Maryland and #TheCitadel honor #RudyGiuliani who was a key leader of the #January6th #FailedCoupAttempt. 
He also condemned hundreds of people (in the 2nd #WTC to fall) to a horrible death on #September11th when he ordered them to “Remain at your desks!” AFTER the 1st tower was struck, and we KNEW that other planes were hijacked.
This is so-called ‘America’s Mayor’?
