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.
for the longest time, people passed around rumors that he’d long since been demolished, sitting at the bottom of his lake as nothing more than a metal skeleton attached to a set of tracks
The original tweet is the corniest thing I’ve ever fucking seen
A. They’re not gonna tip you, periodt. So already the $10mil is looking better.
B. They’re not gonna talk to you, so any “business advice” you thought was gonna be worth more than $10mil, that’s null and void, aint happening.
C. Here’s the real secret of their “success”; they’re all bad people. That’s literally it. They’re willing to lie, steal, cheat, bully, oppress, rape, etc to get what they want, and their appetites are never sated, so they never stop lying, cheating, etc. You don’t get that kind of money through hard honest work. If you’re willing to be a big enough piece of shit, you could easily be one of these guys.
So yeah, if someone’s offering that choice, get it in writing and stay the hell away from these creeps.
But if you’re serving them you can poison the food
mutant mayhem was great but unfortunately it does contain flashing without a warning. if you’re planning on seeing it, the flashing starts in the scene where the turtles are in cynthia utrom’s lab and continues in the fight in superfly’s lair, i unfortunately don’t have timestamps though. feel free to share to spread the word for those who are planning on seeing the movie but may be harmed by flashing lights
Hey these aren’t exact exact but here we are
The flashing in utrom’s lab (assuming you are referring to the electrocution if not lmk and I’ll find the proper one) starts at roughly 58:53 and ends at about 59:55 it also briefly happens again between 1:04:16 and 1:04:18
The flashing in the lab starts roughly at 1:09:53 and ends at 1:11:40
These are really rough but I hope it may help someone
this is massively helpful tysm!!!!!
this post is gaining quite a bit of traction so please rb this version instead!! the timestamps could be extremely helpful to anyone who needs them
