#suez canal
I think tumblr qualifies as a very shitty news site by this point
If there’s one good thing about this Suez canal incident, it’s that it puts my anxieties about my own work at right perspective.
[drops a plate] well, at least i’m not holding up a major intercontinental trade route indefinitely
The strange curse of being a geography major and seeing commentary about “shipping” on this site only to realize it has nothing to do with containerization and the transformation of the global supply chain…
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW PLEASED I AM THAT WE’RE ALL NOW TALKING ABOUT CONTAINER SHIPS

The ship Ever Given is going to eeby deeby for reasons incomprehensible to mortals!

that little digger thing trying to help get evergreen out
