Updated description moved here… because tumblr is tumblr. [I think the links are working now, but otherwise the major tags are there below for navigation.]

Notable fandoms are: the early seasons of Grimm, all of Revenge, The Killing, The X Files, the first two Mummy movies, Check Please!, Pride and Prejudice, Much Ado About Nothing, several incarnations of Sherlock Holmes and I also have a tag called i love this movie!. New-ish interests are might be The Magnus Archives, The Old Guard and Dracula Daily… we’ll see.

Other recurring themes are: art history, AUs, random parallels, unexpected references to Hungary, birds in every single form and terrible humor of the tumblr-kind. 

As far as personal information goes, I’m Elizabeth, I’m nearing 40, I’m Hungarian.

As far as personal interaction goes: I don’t follow back everyone, sorry; but I rarely unfollow (unless it was an accidental follow, I’m sorry about that too); however, it’s not a problem if you unfollow me. I’m… askable I guess, I’m just terrible with answering them. Communication, especially, tumbr-specific communication is not my forte. In about 80% of cases, my likes should be attributed to your tags. Also: I’m guilty of overtagging. (My icon is still the amazing KT Tunstall in more than one ways.)

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)

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.

Is there something you planned to do before you got trapped in the endless tumblr scroll?

Are you yelling at yourself to get up and do the thing, but you can’t, because you’re trapped in the endless tumblr scroll?

Consider this your save point.

Put tumblr down, stand up, stretch, and go do the thing you planned to do. Future you will be incredibly grateful.

Things people in the notes have been able to do thanks to this post:

• eat breakfast
• go to bed
• get out of bed
• take a shower
• write
• practice
• watch Superman Returns and write a paper on it
• retain shreds of sanity

I need y’all to know that you’re doing amazing, and I’m so glad that I was able to help you break out of a procrastination loop you did not want to be stuck in.

“Stop being funnier than me on my own post” is one of my favorite healthy tumblrisms, along with things like “hang on lemme look that up…yeah this is funny” and explicit tone indicators (positive). Like yeah let’s build a world where we playfully format healthy interactions. You made a post and you wanted to be the star but damn, you’ve really gotta hand it to this other person for their really funny addition, so here’s the internet equivalent of giving someone a friendly punch on the shoulder while making sure they know they got a good grade in social interaction

My previous reblog of this was so fucking funny cause I said this in the tags

Nah dog they put this shit on television! It’s in the actual episode!
