Monstrous purrings in the dark

Why are people out there complaining about the whaling industry info in Moby Dick like it's not the most rivetting shit in the book. In the latest chapter, Ishmael says, "yeah btw when we're in the whaling boats we lash multiple harpoons to the same line to get a more secure hold on the whale, unless it goes wrong like it usually does, then the loose harpoon is flung around hitting people. Sometimes there are like 8 or 10 of them all flying around hitting people. This kills people frequently, it's still industry standard, and it will be relevant to us later :)"

Feast day of st Peter AND st Paul is honestly insane. Imagine you hate your coworker and he writes shit against you and you’re both trying to steer your company in completely different directions. And then in the future your company decides to celebrate both of your efforts in the exact same day when every other employee got a day to themselves. Funniest fucking outcome, the Church went off with that one I’m afraid

And I love how it’s not even just the feast day. There’s the medals & prayer cards & PETITIONS for them to work together on a cause. They had an argument ONCE and Jesus said “okay, into the ‘this is our get along shirt’ you go :)”

Where's that post about people being unready to hold the bloody bayonette?

there's an economy of attention & of emotion where you're supposed to find the perspectives and experiences of certain people endlessly fascinating, edifying, and worth caring about, to where it's taken as actively aggressive to simply be neutral, indifferent, or uninterested
