**Sean please read this!! I and other people are heartbroken.

I know that it isn’t your fault but a collection of gifts for you at tour were left behind, including the book and collage I made. My concern is I don’t know why they were left, as I know for a fact that I put them with the other gifts. 😦

I feel so sad because I know that I and the other people’s who’s gifts were left spent a long time trying to make them and to see them there out with garbage sucks.

Please let us know what happened. I do hope you get them!

Help me get this to Sean!! Tag him in the tags please, I really want to put people at ease or at least update them on what happened!!!

Wanted to clarify that these gifts were meant to be given to Sean at the How Did We Get Here live show tour at Moore theater in Seattle. They were not meant to be given to him at the convention because the convention did not allow gifts at PAX this year. The reason I’m so confused is because I know I put the green binder in the box with the rest of the tour gifts so I’m not sure why it is outside with garbage.

Someone has really messed up here! Every gift has a part of someone’s heart and soul in them, its incredibly important to them. How could someone just leave them in an alleyway like this?

Everyone like and share this because Sean needs to see this. Someone either on the team or who was working at the theatre has a lot of explaining to do because this is appalling to see. I just hope these gifts make their way to Sean 💚

Folks, there’s nothing left from the Linguistics division. We lost all the indigenous languages collection: the recordings since 1958, the chants in all the languages for which there are no native speakers alive anymore, the Curt Niemuendaju archives: papers, photos, negatives, the original ethnic-historic-linguistic map localizing all the ethnic groups in Brazil, the only record that we had from 1945. The ethnological and archeological references of all ethnic groups in Brazil since the 16th century… An irreparable loss of our historic memory. It just hurts so much to see all in ashes.

I don’t think enough people really understand yet exactly how horrific this fire was. This was a loss to our world and species.

This is the kind of fire we think of thousands of years later as the deepest of tragedy. On the scale of the Library of Alexandria. It’s worse than that really. The Library of Alexandria kept copies of books in other locations so historically very little was lost in individual fires over the centuries.

This? We lost so goddamn much in one night.

If you want to help… if you have ANY vacation photos, videos, anything documenting the contents of the museum: You may in fact be the sole owner of a slice of humanity’s soul.
