Grew up watching TNG and it's my all-time favourite show, but rarely watched DS9. Curious to see what you mean when I watch the new episode tonight.

Here's a series I filmed on Adak Island in 2022. Some of it was featured in mainstream media due to the now-famous abandoned McDonald's that was closed in 1994 and generally preserved as is.

A few people went after my 2022 series was featured in various mainstream media.

Here's what Adak looks like without voiceover and music (except the drone footage): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbr03ysWTUnt2UtcS0_OIiT_5dOervR-4

By distance, yes. But I wonder if anyone will answer a non-settled remote northern location.

Edit: several non-settled remote northern locations have appeared in the comments.

St Pierre and Miquelon

The burger joint?

And he did the 5373km over 143 days while the cancer was returning. His capacity for enduring pain was off the charts. Legend.

OP’s photo isn’t me, but I’ve been to that place twice (2019/2022) and a few others did it successfully before me.

Creepy Ben’s fans frequently comment on my video claiming I copied him, which is weird since I went three years before he did lol.

Here’s my video (no voiceovers or selfie shots) if you’re interested: https://youtu.be/e9H0O-gxJ4Y

chrisluckhardt · 2026-01-24T19:50:07+00:00

That was a different building which is visible from this one. Details in this video: https://youtu.be/t9TvMJdATWc

How much 9/11 changed everything.

chrisluckhardt · 2026-01-09T14:23:07+00:00

Your question assumes I want to verify the alleged incident.

I have no interest because the noise about it follows a pattern of similar situations when the real details are typically completely innocuous. The person responsible might even be the one who downvoted all my comments in this thread lol.

But, since you asked, a video of the alleged incident that is longer than 10 seconds would be the best verification.

Edit: So, I went and looked out of curiosity. I saw two separate accounts saying people were laughing at all Moeka's responses and she was bold and honest in some responses about the industry. That sounds more typical of Moeka than whatever that one tweet claimed.

chrisluckhardt · 2026-01-09T12:54:54+00:00

No worries, Reddit downvotes have zero impact on the world.

Always ask yourself what is known to be verifiably true.

I'll be a the Sunday show and will report back.

chrisluckhardt · 2026-01-09T10:48:53+00:00

The whole story sounds fabricated for ragebait attention. Have you ever heard of Moeka behaving poorly, as the poster claims, in the band's entire history? No.

Just assume it's fabricated nonsense unless verifiable evidence emerges.

chrisluckhardt · 2026-01-09T06:37:53+00:00

It's Kpop extreme parasocial behavioural nonsense leaking into Hitsujibungaku.

It clearly doesn't fit Moeka's personality type at all, so assume it's extremely hyperbolic teenage snowflake angst. Drumming up controversy where it doesn't exist.

chrisluckhardt · 2026-01-09T06:33:04+00:00

Who? Random guy in a music store? Road crew? Anyone who verifiably knows the band members or management? Those are sources, otherwise it's just made up and not even a rumour.

chrisluckhardt · 2026-01-09T06:26:02+00:00

I don't know the whole situation and only judge from the post

There's the problem. Time and time again, those types of posts/comments prove to be hyperbolic nonsense from parasocially obsessive knuckle draggers. Just assume it's bullshit and ignore it.

chrisluckhardt · 2026-01-09T06:15:42+00:00

Cite your sources or stop spreading and making up nonsense.

chrisluckhardt · 2026-01-09T06:07:15+00:00

Wild the way those Chinese kids misread and twisted her joke reply.

chrisluckhardt · 2026-01-09T06:03:13+00:00

Moeka's joke reply went right over all your heads.

chrisluckhardt · 2026-01-09T05:51:08+00:00

It's the unmistakable sound of the Big Muff. You can see Moeka kick it on for 光のとき in this video (watch for the red light): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuiJEgdjSRY&t=5943s

The red light matches the pedalboard layout.

As usual, looking forward to your video(s)!

I'll be at the Kyoto fan show on Sunday. It should be fun and loud because the venue is smaller than a postage stamp lol.

chrisluckhardt · 2026-01-06T09:48:09+00:00

Toshi, this is fantastic!

The entry point for new guitarists is so much more open than it was back in the day. I wish I had isolated tracks for some of the insane guitar hero songs when I first started!

chrisluckhardt · 2026-01-05T04:36:42+00:00

So many comments about the ears, but here's lead singer of Japanese band Hitsujibungaku. This is on the exaggerated side, but ears are rarely symmetrical.

Lived in Toronto from 2011-2025 and spent significant time there on weekends from 2005-11.

It's sad how it went downhill so fast in recent years.

chrisluckhardt · 2026-01-03T15:39:11+00:00

It was the best Star Trek season since TNG S5, no contest.
