    Bell Riots start in a little under 8 days. They kick off in the early morning of September 1st. Our trio of temporal travelers will arrive in 6 days.

      Roddenberry better be right about this one. If the Simpsons can call it as much as they have, Star Trek can have this one.

        Then the site is wrong. 9am September 1st is past the time the riots start and thats 192 hours away. 192 hours is 8 days exactly.

            I was only using that as a measurement to show that the site was wrong. Even when I posted it I was wrong since I’m in Bogotá time.

              Ah! Colombian deception! I never trusted you folks and your… um… Rainforest? I don’t know enough about Colombia to insult you properly. Oh well.

                I’m american but you really wouldn’t want to insult these people. They’re the kindest coolest people I’ve met. It’s like if Risa were a country.

                  I can believe it. I knew a Colombian exchange student when I was in high school and she was awesome. I would love to get in touch with her again, but I only remember her last name, and it wasn’t exactly an uncommon one.

                Just remember that they fuck donkeys. I think that should be enough

        I figured out what the clock on that site is calculating. They’re showing time until the riots end

        var countDownDate = new Date("Sept 3, 2024 05:00:00 PDT").getTime();

        So just take two days and a bit off that display and that’s when they should start.
