“I (barely) survived the 2023 attack on ao3” needs to be put on a tshirt or sm. I’d buy that.

I’ve never talked about this but my very first blorbo/the first character I ever kinned was Katherine from the hit Shakespeare play Taming of the Shrew. You guys don’t even get it. I’m so much like her. She means everything to me.

I wanna put Izzy Hands in a centrifuge and see what shakes out. I want to wrap him in a blanket and give him a warm drink. I wanna play horse plinko with him. I want someone to treat him with softness and him not be able to handle it. I ship him with Stede and Ed only in the most toxic and harmful one sided way possible. He is my favorite character. All of this can be true.

Idk man I have a lot wrong with me like bpd, maybe bipolar, anxiety, adhd, my memory is in shambles.
Playing the dark urge origin is so special to me. Like I just get it. I know how it feels to be out of control, to not understand why you hurt and why you want to hurt others so badly, to act impulsively only to realize after what you’ve done, to try and fight it only to lose.
I’ve had days where I’ve had to tell my partner that I’m not myself and to please be patient with me. And I’ve had days were I didn’t catch it in time only to come back to my senses and ask if they hate me.
Idk seeing people talk so hatefully about the dark urge like you don’t get it. To feel so confused and scared of yourself. To try so hard to be better for the people you care about. How much it means when they tell you they don’t hate you because the urge isn’t you.

So was anyone gonna tell me the Greek navy still has a fully functional trireme?
Her name is Olympias! She was built in 1987 and can sail up to 9 knots (17 km) per hour!
Olympias weighs 47 tonnes, but is remarkably agile, able to make a 180 degree turn within one minute. Everything but the bracing ropes was constructed of the same materials as in ancient Greece. (They used steel instead of hemp rope for cost reasons.)
Experiments with Olympias have helped us understand the capabilities of warships from ancient Greek and Roman times. Triremes like her were built for speed, maneuverability, and aggressive ramming. (Her beak alone weighs 200 kg.) It appears that many of the seamanship feats described by Thucydides were indeed possible!
Olympias is now an exhibit at Naval Tradition Park in Palaio Faliro, Athens, Greece. She's usually dry docked these days, but I've found a couple videos of her at sea!
Edit: Initially got her top speed wrong, sorry. It is now corrected!

people who go through the main tags of big and tumultuous fandoms looking for new fresh good posts to reblog are essential to any circle. they’re like true hunter gatherers leaving the safety of settlement and braving the unknown wilderness to find food for the flock. they risk their lives every day and will come back with a few scratches at best and severe psychological damage at worst
