not to be like insane over a kids movie but tadashi not being mad at hiro for botfighting and getting them bost arrested and instead being concerned if he's hurt and then taking him to his college knowing that it would motivate hiro to do something else something better because he knew that hiro was capable of such amazing things and he wanted hiro to see that too and he continuously believed in hiro even when hiro didnt believe in himself and- [GUNSHOT]

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!

there's a bit in the big bang theory where sheldon explains how he copes with social interactions by pretending to be an undercover alien studying the customs of the human race

i've been feeling a bit like that lately except i got lost from my expedition and i have no purpose anymore, i'm just surrounded by people i can't understand. and they expect me to behave in certain ways. i'm scared and unprepared and i can't talk to any of them about what i really am or what i am feeling or what my thought process is. also i guess my memory got wiped cause i have no idea why i am like this so yeah

i'd make a shit explorer

HAPPY FRIDAY I MISS THEM

Mark: Roger is not a morning person. Or a night person. There’s really only about seven minutes a day you are fun to be around.

Roger: The best part is you never know when they’re coming.

the doctor is so the jealous type.

I mean season 8 is one thing but I'm doing a rewatch and the whole of the episode "the doctor dances" is just 9 being jealous of Jack for 43 minutes straight.
