Abbaetha: an idea first born on an undigested parsnip

This will help show the value they bring to the team (noble savage archetype, nothing else).

Ahahaha

I deleted my post because I decided it was a bit much to spring on people without intro, but if you look up “he’s at home” there is an interesting article about whaler’s wives in The Common - Ben shattuck is the author.

If there is something wrong with property, plant, or equipment, and people are concerned about safety, menace them with something sharp that is also on fire to improve morale. 🐋

Maybe Ishmael hallucinated the entire thing and is actually sleeping off an unfortunate encounter with a barrel of bad molasses.

Lady Catherine DeBurgh’s trip to tell Lizzy not to marry Darcy: first instance of Streisand effect? Discuss!

Inside-out coat, stat!

Let us recall that as they were talking about the ropes in the whale boat they were saying if you stepped in the wrong loop as the whale runs you are a goner. And that they would take your skin off.

Doesn’t sea-coal burn smoky? Is this another random snippet of a book in my head?

Only at the beginning I think.

“Hemp only can kill thee.”
“Great! Just the gallows then!”

Someone else crashing through the backdrop: “or you are on a BOAT covered in ROPES maybe?”

It’s about light and dark, and the impenetrable majesty and terror of the sea, and also maybe he got into the catnip.

Adding to the book:
Book: in advance of a big project, ask certain employees to bleed on your desk or other work area. You can force them to if you want. Ideally approach employees who are distinct in looks or language from the rest of your employees for this service.

Screengrab of a footer purporting to be Celeste Ng (it is NOT). Text reads: "Kind regards, Celeste Celeste Ng #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Author of internationally acclaimed novels Recipient of the Guggenheim Fellowship Winner, Amazon Book of the Year Award Website: www.celesteng.com Email: info.celesteng@gmail.com United States" A picture shows an east Asian woman (NOT Celeste Ng) beside a book resembling Everything I Never Told you, a book resembling Little Fires Everywhere, and another copy of Little Fires Everywhere that does not resemble any real copy. Close examination of these covers reveals misspellings and strange design elements that suggest AI generation.

Someone out there is impersonating me using AI generated emails. Please know
I will never email you asking you to pay me for a service. (Also, this is NOT me, that is NOTA my email, and those book covers resemble mine but are clearly AI generated...)
