THE PEQUOD WRAPPED

[jfkadultcircumcision]

historical aus i really think we should consider more in fandom:

construction of the hoover dam

arctic expedition

moby dick

prohibition but they’re not bootleggers or anything just regular people and it’s prohibition

labor organizers during the early 20th century

that part of the 70s where people were just hijacking planes and defecting to cuba all the time

a video that starts "how to dress to make your man OBSESSED with you 😍" and it abruptly cuts to somebody dressed as a huge and uncannily realistic white whale

To the bold ff.net user in 2013 who tried to write Moby-Dick from the whale’s perspective, please get back here you were cooking

Dude Ishmael and I are of the same mind.

I too wish to sail and the sea draws me, calls to me. Maybe I was a sailor in a past life. (i truly believe that)

But also the sort of, yeah sure order me around in a place that I want to be. I don't have to climb the ranks or be an officer, I just want to be here to be here. I'm being paid and i feel no worse for being ordered to do my job. (this is how i've felt about almost every job i have- where others might complain I'm just like eh, they're paying me to be here.)

I loved working at a hotel bc i love hotels. I would live in a hotel. Easy. And i'm getting paid there? To put on parties? That's like literally i'm practically partying with them then i get to eat their leftover food after. And I get PAID?! And they're paying thousands of dollars? Hell yeah.

Working at a coffee shop, i love the smell and vibe and talking to people- again. People pay to be in a coffee shop but i /got/ paid. Order me around, idc. I'm where I want to be.

These are my thoughts

moby dick reread off to a great start

[faustandfurious]

Smh at people who claim they “don’t understand” Moby Dick. There’s a man. There’s a whale. There’s a ship. There was only one bed. There is Lazarus, come from the dead, come back to tell you all. There’s the devil and the deep blue sea. What more do you need to understand? Go to Nantucket and watch the winter storms ravage the shores and maybe you’ll get it.
