Every single scientist and researcher that is associated with the museum looks like they haven't slept since before the pandemic and were recently dragged through a ditch and at least one of them adds spicy crispy oil to her otherwise black coffee but we held a reception recently and invited new or interested donors and the way these people perked right up and became suddenly glossy and graceful and attentive was truly an impressive feat of camouflage and mimicry
i really want people to stop writing scientists as awkward, stilted conversationalists who don't understand idioms or emotions and start writing them as depressed alcoholics who swear like sailors unless they're in a specifically academic situation

Every year on this day Halifax fires it's signal guns and rings all their church bells and all the ships in the harbour sound their horns and bells at the exact minute of the explosion (9:04:35am) to remember.
There is one last surviving ship that was in Halifax Harbour during the explosion and every year she flies the same signal flags she flew on this morning 107 years ago.
youtube
Today in history, December 6, 1917. Two ships collided in Halifax harbour causing a catastrophic fire and explosion of munitions that instantly killed about 2000 people and injured 9000 more. Over 10000 buildings were demolished and thousands became homeless and jobless as WW1 roared on.

i fully saw this and assumed it was a marketing poster for a new horror podcast
if you've ever used the London Underground you might have noticed that it often gets uncomfortably hot. the reason for this is actually that its builders dug too greedily & too deep and as a result the trains are very close to the fires of hell. hope that helps.
