Yo I need help... Anybody have any og pics of Travis with the Hustle Gang crew?
So, according to this dude on YT, Grand Hustle, Travis's label, is now copyright striking survivor's vlogs because you can hear - gasp! - snippets of the music behind people screaming for help.
Even if this is an action of automated bot, this is a special kind of low and ends up acting as defacto censorship of the show's victims and survivors.
Title
In current reality Federer, Nadal and Djokovic are all on 20 Grand Slam wins and much entertainment has been enjoyed watching their journeys. What would their records be if Men's singles Grand Slam tournaments were only best of 3 sets? Better? Worse? Same?
Let's preface by saying this analysis is largely irrelevant, probably wrong, ignored many factors and is different to how you would have done it. But still, here is one alternate reality where Men's singles are best of 3 sets in Grand Slam tournaments.
To calculate the results, I've looked at all their Grand Slam matches and noted where the tournament results would have changed, had all their matches have been completed after 3 sets.
Examples of changing reality:
In 2009 US Open final, Federer was up 2 sets to 1 against Juan Martin del Potro, so would have won if a best of 3 set contest giving him an extra slam. However in reality he lost in 5 sets.
In 2011 French Open Nadal would actually have gone out in Round of 128 (first round) losing 2 sets to 1 against undisputed king of clay John Isner. However in reality Nadal won the match in 5 sets, and went on to win the tournament. In our alternate best of 3 sets reality he loses a slam, as he went out first round.
Also in same 2011 French Open, Federer lost the Final to Nadal, who as above in alternate reality was already out of the tournament. Against a different opponent maybe Federer would have won? Maybe not. We can't give him a slam, but count it as a possible extra slam here.
In 2010 Aus Open Quarter Finals, Djokovic was up 2 sets to 1 against Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. In our alternate best of 3 sets reality he won the match and is still in the tournament in the semi finals. Whereas in reality, nope. So we can't give him an extra slam as don't know what would have happened. But we can count as a possible extra slam he might have won.
In 1999 Wimbeldon round of 128 (round 1), Federer was up 2 sets to 1 against Jiri Novek, but lost in 5 sets. In our alternate best of 3 sets reality Federer won that match and was still in the tournament. But we're not counting that as possible extra slam because c'mon, let's stay a little bit grounded.
Summary in our alternate best of 3 sets Grand Slam scenario:
Federer won 19 grand slams where he won every match in the tournament counting as best of 3 set matches. He possibly wins up to another 5 grand slams where he reached the QF or SF and would have progressed if best of 3 sets. And he

Max has also won more races that 17 title winners including Jenson Button, Jacques Villeneuve, and 3-time world champion Jack Brabham, as well as 3 double world champions in Graham Hill, Alberto Ascari, and Emerson Fittipaldi.
I know the raw statistics are a bit misleading because there are 22 races in 2021 while only 15 were held in 1974, for example, when Fittipaldi won his second title, but I thought would interesting to point out as that record may return to Moss this Sunday. Personally I'm all but indifferent to who wins the 2021 WDC. I'm just absolutely loving watching the season unfold. Regardless of who wins I think it's good to step back and try to wrap your head around the immense talent of Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton.
It was about 156 cycles ago (Imperial time) that humanity learned the cruelty of the stars. We had just broken out of our home system with our crude, inefficient sunlight travel. Our ships could only travel at a fraction of the speed of light, but they were equipped with state of the art quantum computers to efficiently navigate the void, and they used FTL communication to contact Earth. We began colonizing and terraforming suitable planets as fast as we could get to them, and it was on our 243rd that we discovered sentient life. The natives called themselves the Nazcor, and they were tribal hunter gatherers. I hate to use the word primitive, but... Regardless, we attempted contact, but try as we might they responded only with aggression. Due to some strange quirk of their planets formation, there were no surface ore deposits of any kind. Since the Nazcor had no way to reach these resources, we claimed them and soon launched numerous mining operations. This was Humanity's first mistake. We had unwittingly violated the laws of the Coalition, but did they try to contact us and denounce our actions? No. Did they demand that we leave the planet and pay reparations? No. They had many options, but instead, for whatever reason, they chose to make an example of us. They attacked without warning, killing all of the colonists. Even the ones that surrendered, even the ones that tried to escape. That was the Coalition's first mistake. Then, mercifully, they did not pursue these matters further. They did not attack our other holdings, they did not come to Earth with richeous fury to exterminate us. They left us alive. That was their second mistake, and now billions on both sides suffer for it. My name is John Langley, and my people are at war in a desperate struggle for survival. We are facing extinction, as do our enemies, as well as the rest of the Galaxy. So many atrocities, so many horrors I've seen. Is mankind even worth preserving at this point? Can we be redeemed? Or have we thrown away our humanity, in the name of survival. I am one of the last true humans in the so called Imperium of Man, and in detailing the history of this conflict I hope to understand what has become of mankind. Should we die out, let this be a record of our final, glorious struggle. But until then, know this... we're still fighting.
Hey guys I came up with a really cool setting and story that I really wanted to share with you guys. Let me know if you want to see more!

HIGHLIGHTS:
Hi everyone. I'm from Turkey, and we have an official online service where we can see the history of our families. Even people whose ancestors migrated to Anatolia from Bulgaria or Greece can see the records of their ancestors, where and when there were born etc.
When I checked my heritage, I saw that the records of my maternal parents go to the early 1800s. And they're from a small village in Eastern Turkey, keep in mind that it was the scene for many unpleasant things during that era, but the records are still there. But on my paternal side, there are no records that go beyond my grand-grandparents (dad and mom of my grandfather, both were born in 1910s, and they live in a southern city where there were no major disturbances, it was freed before most of the cities of Turkey during the War of Independence.) When I asked my grandfather before he died, he mumbled something like a fire on the district office, thus the destroyed documents. But it doesn't sit well with me, most of the people from that district have their records. I specifically asked one of my friends whose ancestors were from the same area, and he said that he can see the records up to the 1800s. And wouldn't the records be duplicated to prevent something like this?
Thank you in advance for your thoughts.
EDIT: Removed initial post as I was able to get in contact with a possible grandson of one of the men I was looking for.
Hope this sort of content is allowed.
I posted on r/EssendonFC about finding my copies of the 1993 and 2000 Grand Final Records.
I have finally scanned the complete 1993 Record including front cover and back, all the adverts and everything in its glory.
Thought I'd post it over here on r/AFL as I figured it would probably be of interest to fans of many clubs as it has lots of 1993 season information and stories.
Enjoy

The Giants have gone 30-10 in the same period.
I recently had the luxury of going to Vertigo Records in Grand Rapids, MI and Shake It Records in Cincinnati, OH for the first time while on tour with my band through the Midwest. WOW! There is no better feeling than going to a record shop you've never been to before for the first time. I had to tame myself, but am quite happy with what I got.

Hi everyone. I'm from Turkey, and we have an official online service where we can see the history of our families. Even people whose ancestors migrated to Anatolia from Bulgaria or Greece can see the records of their ancestors, where and when there were born etc.
When I checked my heritage, I saw that the records of my maternal parents go to the early 1800s. And they're from a small village in Eastern Turkey, keep in mind that it was the scene for many unpleasant things during that era, but the records are still there. But on my paternal side, there are no records that go beyond my grand-grandparents (dad and mom of my grandfather, both were born in 1910s, and they live in a southern city where there were no major disturbances, it was freed before most of the cities of Turkey during the War of Independence.) When I asked my grandfather before he died, he mumbled something like a fire on the district office, thus the destroyed documents. But it doesn't sit well with me, most of the people from that district have their records. I specifically asked one of my friends whose ancestors were from the same area, and he said that he can see the records up to the 1800s. After my research, I came across with something. It says: "The first official census in Turkey began in 1904. In online service, you can go back to the years when your elder, who was alive as of this date, was born. For example, if your grandfather was 80 years old in 1904, you will be able to reach the 1840s in the online population records."
Does that mean both my grand-grandparents were orphans? Is this why I'm not able to see their parents? What do you think, did my grandfather tell me the truth (although he couldn't have seen it with his own eyes), or might there be another reason?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Edit: Found something. My grand-grandfather's individual number (it means the number of the person in the family) is 1 on the records, while my grand-grandmother's is 2. So that means they are the first people to be recorded in our family line. And when I looked closely at their birthdays, both is 1 July so it's most likely a fake birthday. The official records literally start with them. But I guess I'll never know if their parents just avoided censuses, or were dead at the time. First option seems more plausible.
