Hi! Sublimation is actually already on my library holds— small world. I can’t wait for the other 23 people to hurry up and read it so I can get my hands on a copy 😂

I know you have only just started but what are you liking most about it?

(Basically, if you want, use this as an excuse to spread Sublimation propaganda lol)

Well first of all, it's in second person POV, which as I hope most people know is my absolute BELOVED.

Second, I read the description and assumed that the instancing was a bureaucratic process a la Severance, not an innate element of the world that bureaucracy has to try to accommodate and manage, and I don't think the former would be a bad premise by any means, but part of the reason it hits so hard so fast is by setting up this world element and immediately hitting you with all of the implications of that. The way it's conceptualized in the founding of the USA. The compounding of the effects of colonization and virtually every other process that accompanied it. The extremely troubled concept of "border".

It's so intricately tied up in the administrative banalities of what all of these things mean in the modern globalized world but at the same time, it's very hyperfocused on this one family and their circumstances that it really doesn't let you forget either the larger legal realities of the world it's proposing or the human elements. Obviously this is just based on the beginning, but it's really well set up to handle both of those sides of the premise at the same time.

Here's hoping you get to the front of the waiting list soon!

People on Tumblr love sharing information about themselves no matter how asinine it is. And I'm the same way. Everybody tell me what the last thing you drank was.

It's interesting listening to Caleb talk to the imprisoned Volstrucker because it's so clear when he talks to her he's looking for indication that someone like him can change. He asks her what she would do if she knew some of her targets were innocent; that they were just as loyal to the Empire as her. When she responds as she was taught he notes she learned Trent's teachings well. But it's so clear he was hoping for a glimmer of hesitation, just something to show that this person who is enough like him that he still calls here sister can change, and in that that he can find hope for himself

I need everyone to know that the ship Götheborg, the world's largest ocean-going wooden sailing ship, answered a distress call the other day.

Imagine waiting for the coast guard or whatever to show up and instead a replica of 18th century merchant ship pulls up and tows you to the coast.

pov: you’ve been transported to the 17th century

#in the article it says that the sailboat sailors were concerned because they could not be towed quickly because of the kind of boat#so they asked Götheborg what type of ship they were and warned that they would not be able to go above a certain speed#and götheborg went ' we are also a sailboat. 50 meters length. no worries :) '#and the poor sailboat sailors were just like ' That's not possible. they have to be messing with us' and then the ship Rolled Up (via bunjywunjy)

[ms-demeanor]

I'm crying. Here's a photo of a sailor from the Götheborg watching over the little sailboat in tow:

From the story:

We repeatedly emphasized that we were aboard a small 8-meter sailboat, but the response was the same each time: "We are a 50-meter three-masted sailboat, and we offer our assistance in towing you to Paimpol." We were perplexed by the size difference between our two boats, as we feared being towed by a boat that was too large and at too fast a speed that could damage our boat. The arrival of the Götheborg on the scene was rapid and surprising, as we did not expect to see a merchant ship from the East India Company of the XVIII century. This moment was very strange, and we wondered if we were dreaming. Where were we? What time period was it? The Götheborg approached very close to us to throw the line and pass a large rope. The mooring went well, and our destinies were linked for very long hours, during which we shared the same radio frequency to communicate with each other. The crew of the Götheborg showed great professionalism and kindness towards us. They adapted their speed to the size of our boat and the weather conditions. We felt accompanied by very professional sailors. Every hour, the officer on duty of the Götheborg called us to ensure everything was going well.[...] This adventure, very real, was an incredible experience for us. We were extremely lucky to cross paths with the Götheborg by chance and especially to meet such a caring crew. Dear commander and crew of the Götheborg, your kindness, and generosity have shown that your ship is much more than just a boat. It embodies the noblest values of the sea, and we are honored to have had the chance to cross your path and benefit from your help.

"Our destinies were linked for very long hours" is just knocking me out.

i had a really weird dream last night about identical triplet brothers who made a huge deal out of always being identical and doing everything together. then one of them had to go away for some time, and when he returned, he discovered that his sisters had transitioned while he was gone and was stuck on the problem of if he should transition too just so they can stay identical. I can't stop thinking about it over and over and I don't know why.
