There is no other way to make Italian food. It naturally comes in feast size.

I only do it when absolutely necessary. Otherwise 2 spaces til death.

I mnow there's a sailor to ship ratio issue but autopilot may not be the best solution.

RIGHT.

That's 10k. So you're getting a month of history threads.

If it hits 12k I'll FINALLY sit down and do the proper series on Military Holy Orders on YouTube people keep asking for.

Knights Hospitallers defending Protestants against the Pope! The Leper Order! The full works!

And I really should have said @swordsjew.bsky.social like everyone else. I just interact with her less. But she just like wrote a whole book on this.

Did we not just have a marine board report on an experimental ship having the front fall off?

@dreadships.bsky.social dear god they managed to make them UGLIER. I didn't think that was possible.

Something really cool from TikTok I’ve never seen before: Joan Jett in full Orioles dress practicing with the team. Does anyone have context on when this is from? My guess would be like the late 70s?

#OTD 10 Aug 1626, the massive Swedish warship Vasa set out on its maiden voyage. The pride of King Gustav II Adolph soon listed over, water rushed through its open gun ports, and Vasa sank to the bottom of Stockholm Harbour. (1/2)

Really shouldn't be going through old writing. Apparently I also had an alternate history idea. Free to a good home.

For some unknown reason I decided to dig out the novel I worked on about 15 years ago. Its at almost 16000 words. Damn, that's pretty far in. I should finish it someday right?

Seriously? @profgabriele.com and @tlecaque.bsky.social

A man with a spectacular 1970s mullet, wearing big wellies and a v-neck jumper over a T-shirt, looks at camera as he stands on a boat which is itself standing on the muddy bottom of an empty canal. He is holding up an enormous wooden plug on a long chunky chain

Today is the 47th anniversary of this clearly unimprovable photo, from a story so absurd that it shouldn’t be true, but is: the day a team of workers from British Waterways pulled the plug out of the Chesterfield Canal, and all the water emptied out

god I hope no one will be reading my work emails in the future. Find something interesting folks.

Given the overt attempts to erase certain histories from public spaces...well, I hope people are taking steps to preserve their local knowledge.

You can write books that are not for public consumption, that chronicle your specific family or village history.

You can keep your own archives.

As well he should have been. He wasn't paying attention and turned his back on the action.

We did this one in college. I played Elma.

I sobbed when I made the appointment. Not even getting the shot but knowing I was finally able. That we could be safe. That I didn't have to worry about loved ones dying.

He apparently is since he posted himself that he was good.

On August 7, 2025, James Lovell passed away — the astronaut who flew to the Moon twice but never set foot on it. In a brief cameo role at the end of #Apollo13, he shakes hands with Tom Hanks, who played him — a touching moment between reality and movie. #RIPJamesLovell #apollo13

Happy #BookLoversDay, Twilight Zone fans!

I wouldn't say not seriously injured, he was in the fencing posture then seizing. So at least concussed badly which we need to start calling a serious injury.

I mean I wouldn't even travel in a regular submarine. Claustrophobia and all. I will walk through one, but spend any time, in the ocean in one -- absolutely fucking not.

Oh much better picture. The earlier one in the mist was kinda creepy.
