250 years military maritime sea clocks 2023 marks the 330th anniversary of John Harrison's birth but also the 250th anniversary since the last bit of Longitude Prize money was awarded by British parliament. In 1773, 80 years old English clock maker John Harrsion was awarded the final amount of Prize money for his " seawatch n° 1 " H4 clock which solved the Longitude problem. Harrison had been working half a century to perfect his watches . Note the great details in these paintings, with Harrison holding John Jefferys watch and his own H4 clock on the table besides him. As Great Britain asserted its position with France and had to avoid these precious time keepers could be caught by Spanish or Dutch navy ships, copies of Harrison H4 were sent on sea trials. A time of sextants and clocks, while today's rise of technology has isolated us from the natural World, unfortunately much to our detriment. (National Maritime Museum - Greenwich GB)
Mi amor por Linton es como el follaje de los bosques: el tiempo lo cambiará, yo ya sé que el invierno muda los árboles. Mi amor por Heathcliff se parece a las eternas rocas profundas, es fuente de escaso placer visible, pero necesario
Catherine Earnshaw - Cumbres Borrascosas - Emily Brontë
So, like, I'm currently rereading Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights and you know what I really appreciate about it? SHE DIDN'T TRY TO MAKE US SO LIKE THE CHARACTERS. Like, Heathcliff is awful, both Catherines are awful (but the mother was, admittedly, worse), Hareton was awful, Joseph was awful; even Nelly, Edgar, and Mr Lockwood made me think something along the lines of "You are terribly cruel/dumb."
Yes, the story is pure madness. Yes, just about everyone is awful. But the story is also really interesting!
Just saying...
"..In the first place, his startling likeness to Catherine connected him fearfully with her. That, however, which you may suppose the most potent to arrest my imagination, is actually the least: for what is not connected with her to me? And what does not recall her? I cannot look down to this floor, but her features are shaped in the flags! In every cloud, in every tree- filling the air at night, and caught by glimpses in every object by day- I am surrounded with her image! The most ordinary faces of men and women- my own features- mock me with a resemblance. The entire world is a dreadful collection of memoranda that she did exist, and that I have lost her."

Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights.
petition to make a new wuthering heights movie with adam driver as heathcliff.
They keep on saying they're not gay, but yeah I really doubt that,
This is stupidy. They hate each other. I don’t even ship them. But I saw the original picture and i just had to. I’m so, so sorry. @expandingsleep
