Videos not viewed within the last year will start to be archived, watchable only by the uploader, and then deleted after a three month grace period.

If you have anything you hold dear on Dailymotion, it is well past time to start hoarding it.

It starts off with a stop motion part starring dominoes in front of a little building, and then transitions to a number of scenes featuring some fun camera trickery.

I find it fun that this is essentially the exact same thing we used to make as kids some 60 years later, only we used a digital camera!

It’s a creative act to find and make sense of my own history, one that requires a leap of faith in order to fill in the silences, erasures, omissions, and genuine mysteries that old books and documents, records and artifacts, represent. A lot is left to the imagination. Much of what survives from the past asks more questions than we can answer. This is true for queer and trans archival traces, as it is for other aspects of humanity that are poorly accounted for in public records, or actively discriminated against through surveillance and omission in equal parts.

Archive Team has just begun the distributed archiving of the Japanese SS Blog, a blog hosting service, which is set to be discontinued on March 31, 2025.

And you can help! There isn't much time left, so as many people running the warrior as possible is needed.

Resources:

• The wiki page of the project (not much info)
• The tracker (at the top of the page) has the simplest info on how you can help out
• The github page offers a docker-based alternative for advanced users, and more info on best practices for this sort of archiving

Why help out?

The web is disappearing all the time, and often a lot of previously easily accessible information is lost to time. These japanese blogs may not be very important to you, but they certainly are to a lot of people, and nobody knows what sort of information is found only here, until they need it.
