The year is 2004... Your polyphonic ringtone habit is sending you broke. George W Bush is sworn in for a second term. And in spite of everything going on, the most controversial thing is a wardrobe malfunction at the superbowl?

Love is love - the fight for marriage equality in Massachusetts
🚀✨ This week, we're zipping back to mid-May 2004 with a monumental leap in equality, the formidable force of nature and we unleash our inner emo…
🌈 First up, Massachusetts makes history by being the first U.S. state to say "I do" to same-sex marriage. The champagne popped and love won, setting the stage for a nationwide wave of wedding bells. Here's to love ruling the day!
🌪️ Switching from heartwarming to heart-stopping, we rewind to the terrifying day an F4 tornado blitzed through Nebraska. Hallam got hit hard, but the spirit of resilience outshone the debris. Nature's fury? Yes. Unbreakable human spirit? Absolutely.
🏉 On the sports front, the 2004 Super Rugby Final was nothing short of legendary. The Brumbies and the Crusaders brought an epic showdown that’s still one of the most memorable in rugby history.
🎶 And Fall Out Boy gifted us an EP of all the emotions as posted in the YouTube comments you bet we’ll dissect.
Tune in, turn up the volume and time travel with us #FlashbackFever #May2004Magic #HistoryMeetsToday
