eerie and beautiful

I came across these post-earthquake photos in china of couples who had just been married in front of an old French missionary church. they were there taking their wedding photos when the earthquake hit. they are scary and it is such a dichotomy.

after the earthquake

also, they mentioned the great hurricane of 1938 that happened in long island and rhode island and was completely unexpected w/ no warning. the link is a (short-ish) transcript of a super interesting pbs show about it w/ first-hand accounts, and bears striking similarities to katrina (houses demolished by water, people looting all of the stores b/c it was the great depression and nobody had any money), but I don't know if the government helped them out or not. fucking gov.
