Sixty years ago, two teachers walked into a junkyard in search of a student. What they found was a strange police box, and an even stranger old man.
Little did they know is that the old man would show them all the amazing and all the terrifying parts of the universe, all the wonders that were otherwise unknown to them. Travels with Marco Polo, living like the Romans did, stopping the Daleks from invading Earth.
But in the eyes of the old man, they showed him a part of humanity he was previously indifferent towards. All the inherent goodness, determination and love within it.
Although the teachers and student eventually left, the old man marched on through a variety of forms; the hobo, the dandy, the mad man with a box.
But one thing remained the same; his love of adventure, and his undying respect for humanity.
Happy birthday, Doctor Who. ❤️🔷

September 11
Hey Friends! I know this is kind of a random thing to post about, but I felt like I should.
If you don't know, today is September 11th, the 22nd anniversary of the 9/11 attacks in America on September 11, 2001. Nearly 3,000 people died just in the attacks, with hundreds of others sick and dead because of the amount of toxic air and debris released into lower Manhattan after the crashes.
The World Trade Center's North building was hit first, followed by the south building, then the Pentagon, then a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. They were hit by planes piloted by members of al-Qaeda, an Islamic extremist terrorist group formed by Osama bin Laden, along with some others.
Because this group couldn't defeat America military-wise, they instead set their sights on symbols and iconic American monuments. Members hijacked these four flights to attack these various targets representing America's power.
There was only one plane that didn't land were it was meant to. This plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. We aren't sure were it was meant to go, but there's a theory that it was meant to land on the Capitol building because it is a sign of America's Legislative power. Even though we don't know for sure where this plane was meant for, what's important is that it didn't. Because of the bravery of the people on that flight who fought back against the hijackers, many lives were saved. Unfortunately, everyone on that flight died.
Other people who should absolutely be mentioned are the First Responders involved. During the attacks, after the attacks, and everywhere in between, First Responders came from all over America to help the victims of these attacks.
We owe a lot to the dedicated men and women who worked day and night to save hundreds of lives.
It's important to say that even though the attacks were committed by Islamic extremists, NOT ALL MUSLIMS ARE AT FAULT. The people who attacked were extremists, who, like their name suggests, have extreme views. This is, in my opinion, the other side of the tragedy surrounding 9/11. After the attacks, people were very hateful towards Muslims and Muslim-Americans in general, not usually making any distinction between neighbors and friends and the people who actually attacked America.
All in all, 9/11 was tragedy on many levels. There's lots of others things to be said and aspects I haven't covered. If you want, you can check out the websites/resources linked below to read more. If you're a 9/11 victim or the family of one, I offer my condolences and hope that you're able to feel hope even today, on the anniversary of this tragedy. If there's something I left out, or something I said wrong, I'm really sorry. I don't want to offend someone by this, only commemorate and remember this day for what it is.
If you want to learn more about 9/11, I would suggest---
1. CNN10; they released a video today with some good information, mostly about the 9/11 memorial in New York.
2. The 9/11 Memorial website; there's a lot of information including ways to get connected/help with the efforts to help people learn about 9/11.
3. Ground Zero by Alan Gratz; if you didn't know Alan Gratz is a writer who writes really deep, meaningful, and slightly gore-y books about tragedies. The books are gore-y for a reason, they really demonstrate the true tragedy and this book made me cry like five different times throughout reading it. It's on Libby and a bunch of other reading websites and local libraries if you want to read it. I highly recommend it. -> (TW: blood, fire, angst, wounds, death, etc. If you're under 13, I suggest asking a parent to read this with you)
4. The National Archives; I haven't read through this entire website because it's super massive, but if you look at the side of the page there's a place that says 'Contents' and there's a ton of resources there too.

Really wish someone had told me the first Saw film had a plot not dissimilar from a gay porno because I would’ve watched it soooo much earlier.
#the void (2016) completely rewired my brain so gore doesn’t bother me half as much as it used to#so i’m just now getting around to the Saw films and uh….#saw 2004#saw movies#wish i had whatever Adam and Lawrence had going on#definitely earns a spot in the pantheon of god-tier horror film romances#also happy anniversary to the film#cut your foot off in a saw trap only to experience 9/11 the next day 💀#chainshipping

It’s unacceptable to use today as an excuse to say derogatory things about Muslims
Remember those that died. Remember all the officers, firefighters, EMT’s/paramedics. Don’t spread hate

Is it just me/my dash or is there waaaaaay more 9/11 content on Tumblr this year than usual?
#maybe I just followed some particularly patriotic people this year?#I was wondering if it was a milestone anniversary but no#the 20th was two years ago and even then I saw maybe a fraction of what I’m seeing this year#9/11

Hello there, today is a sad day. As this happened 22 years ago on this day, September 11th, 2001, New York City went on their daily day as usual but then everything changed at 8:46 a.m. want a plane crash? I won the twin towers of the World trade Center, then another plane crash to the second. Then the whole tower crumble and thousands lost their lives, It was such a tragic day
So let us take the time to remember those who list their lives to save other people and those who survived and mourn those who perish and died on this horrible event

Heavy Weather
(Out of the Blue)
partly sunny, mostly cloudy
that was yesterday, was
history that's never fully
distilled until it goes
down smooth and easy;
bitter, it's still bitter
to taste and taste and never
feel the buzz, only
the aftermath, hangover
from a brutal day in September
so fucked up, we
all remember
pain that rendered us numb
forced us to succumb
to one another, seeking
comfort and consolation
amidst the ashes
smoke and pain and devastation
direct attack on our nation
unimaginable loss that still
lingers, much to our consternation
◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇
©️ @followcb ☆ September 11, 2022
All who we lost are never gone. We feel your presence. We remember your faces and smiles and lives. Today, we honor you and say your name aloud.
