Reposting on a separate post for this for archiving purposes.

I finished the 2025 Annual Timeline over the weekend so I can start dumping real-time stuff there as it happens, while also working on the older timelines. I’ve made the page live, so everyone should be able to access it now!

I’ve officially lost my trust in Tümblr, so I’m definitely not posting timelines here unless absolutely necessary. I’ll be backing up all future masterposts on Notion too (lol lesson learned).

Extra note: Stunt mentions are included, though I’ve left out some parts that aren’t necessarily super essential to the annual timeline. Those will still appear in the stunt timelines under a separate section on the Larry Guide page.

Hi, love! I have them backed up on my SSD, iCloud, and Google drive (dedicated for this archive)!

Here's a quick view of how the Annual Timeline would look like:

The Links column has the actual links accessible online. The File Back-up has the Google Drive links (screenshots, collection of photos, videos, gifs, PDFs of articles, etc).

Hi, Anon! So basically, aligning the daily events! There are some resources out there that have detailed day-to-day events such as BPL's 2011-2012 timelines, but from there forward, the other timelines are either not as elaborate or not as easily available.

What I need is:

For the basic events and key details to be sorted into the Google sheet I made. You can use multiple resources for this (though I normally provide a list), and use Google to check if they had any activities/news/events that day.

Put some of the resources under the links column (photos, videos, gifs and whatnot that are easily available). Whichever photo/video you can find based on the resources you're using, or if you googled a date online!

I don't ask anyone to do any deep diving for this, nor do the breakdowns I'm doing because I will elaborate the entries later on. What I mean by this is that sometimes, if a video has soooo many larry moments, I break them down per timestamp! But that'd be my job! Also, I search every video or photos related to an event, so that's also gonna be my part—but of course, to do so, I at least have to know the date and the event details.

Example: You can put "3/17/2012 — 1D Walmart Signing in Somerdale, NJ" and maybe a photo reference. I will do the rest in getting all the photos related to that day, as well as some relevant clips!

I think main thing right now is to move forward with the easy part, which is just data encoding the events basically (I just need a rough skeleton of what was happening that day and I will elaborate the rest), and not miss and activity both of 1D and Larry. I more people are aligning the events, I can focus on the deeper research part and backing up the files on GDrive!

many of the new fans don’t venture beyond their videos which isn’t cosmic’s fault however they do have a lot of things that were debunked still included in their videos and i personally messaged them about it with no response. for someone whose been around since 2011 i’m surprised at some of the things they did include and what they didn’t include that’s extremely important.

they also used some questionable references to explain the difference between louis’ denials vs the denials of others which is extremely subjective to begin with as straight is the go to belief which is the systemic issue. we have no idea who’s telling the truth and daniel radcliffe (who has long been rumored to be closeted and also had a similar experience with outrageous fame at a young age, and lauren jauregui who ofc would deny any relation to camilla cabello after camilla was exposed for her racism) were not the best examples.

i think your master doc will be incredibly needed and i’m praying it gets shared across all platforms.

I get that and I agree! I've commented on some of the videos, afaik, about some debunked stuff. I think one of them was about the tweets where Robin (?) supposedly only wished Louis a happy birthday but not the other boys (which is false because he did greet the others if you search their names on his account). I might be mixing up parents and names, but that’s the idea lol

That's probably why I care for TikTok. The reach and engagement there are CRAZY HIGH, but unfortunately, that also means misinformation spreads easily. A lot of people are visual learners, which makes cosmicleed's videos really helpful (at least as a starting point). So I'd rather people begin larrying using those videos AND THEN dive into deeper research rather than relying on TikTok edits and clips with no context. :(

Like you, I lean toward logic and fact-based information, which is why I decided to work on this masterdoc. I love reading analyses and theories, especially those that are well-researched and backed up.

With the masterdoc, I want to lay down events as they unfolded and provide more context to the clipped moments people see in edits. HOPEFULLY, the right audience finds it when it's ready.

And on a sidenote, I can't believe how fast you got into it, november was literally yesterday. We're all rooting for you, take care.♡

Hi lovely Anon!!

"I've wanted to do this so much but I know myself lol, it would end up so abandoned." FELT LOL. I was scared of that happening too, but I feel like that masterdoc will help a lot of fans in the long run, and it would be my pride to be one of the people preserving them. ♡

Thank you so much for the offer! I'll definitely ask for help if I need it! And I will give progress updates from to time here as well! What really helps right now is that several people are assisting with event encoding and aligning the timeline. I think what makes the process longer for me is that when I enter something, I simultaneously track all related photos, videos, gifs, and articles—then download, upload (back-up), and link them to the Notion site I'm building. But with others encoding things that can just be copy-pasted (like tweets and articles), I can focus on my own section and then go back later to check theirs + do a more extensive search for related files!

I'd say I'm still pretty quick, all things considered, but I'm very thorough, and my brain would NAG me if I skipped anything important (unless I’m exhausted that day lol). When the timeline eventually goes live, if certain files resurface, I’d definitely love to get submissions and add those in too!

[Reposting so people can actually read it lol]

A little update!

I finished 2010, @tobethemselves is helping me encode 2011 (and @delicateperspective as of earlier well), and I'm currently working on 2012. The early days were so packed, and the timeline references were incredibly thorough back then. It’s taking longer because I'm trying to gather all the photos, gifs, and videos I can find—literally scouring every corner of the internet—to back up each listed moment. I’m also using the Wayback Machine to retrieve old articles that have been deleted (Sugarscape links are GOLD).

Anyway, it's a LOT lol It's gonna take a while, but all good things take time. 🥹

"If anyone can do it it’s you!" Well, you just gave me a 1000% energy boost there! 😭

I agree! I'm using Google Sheets for this masterdoc + GDrive for backing up the tweets/photos/videos (depending on what my gdrive capacity will allow me because I do in fact pay extra for the 1D/larry archive lol). I think it's the best way for me to maintain it because of Tumblr's post limitations [reblogs are fixed - so you can't revise stuff; post length limits] and like you said, if my blog gets terminated again (@fookinhellcurlyy got reinstated today tho lol).

And I think there might've been some recently debunked stuff that were included in the cosmicleeds vids too (I remember something about tweets) so it's good to have something I can easily update/revise. I'll try to back-up on GDrive the videos with outsourced links as well, but there's like 20GB left of my current plan right now lol I wish iCloud has a way of sharing files without your name in full display 😭
