Just had a snack and a nap. Can recommend!

What if I do THAT for love? What then?

Oh, you shared it. I can smell that photo.

As is the people that have no idea what a yacht is coalition. Loud, proud, and clueless, one might say.

Loved the farm dogs when we stayed at an airbnb in rural Texas during our last family reunion. Atlas would make a great friend for all, but he won't leave the property even when we're on vacation. It's like we have a virtual leash. That's gotta hurt when I go to work, poor fella.

Tis the season. Thanks for this epicness.

This exists... and I had to see it... and, well, thanks for that. 💀

They're so very desperate. Just drill a hole in the thing for you fleshlight or whatever the fuck the losers are buying these days. smdh 🤮

Besides the point of course. If a sailor is in need, we go and help them. Full stop.

From the photos, I think the Tai Tam was a Beneteau 51.1, so depending on the year of manufacture, equipment and upkeep, probably around $400k. It's not a billionaire's boat.

You'll see a pod breach *on the horizon* and maybe get to see them once or twice more before they're on top of you. Solidly the whale was in charge of this encounter unless they happened upon it while it was sleeping. 🤦

Captain Catboss @choster.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Tell me you've never sailed with a pod of sperm whales without telling me you've never sailed with a pod of sperm whales. A traditional monohull like the Tai Tam cannot escape its hull speed under normal conditions, about 9 knots. A sperm whale can easily fuss about at 20 knots.

I'm sorry, you seem to have confused "unfortunate" with "amazeballs"

Captain Catboss @choster.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Sure, newly launched 45 to ~50 ft ocean going monohulls tend to be commissioned by millionaires. Older models, which make up the vast majority of vessels at sea, tend to be liveaboards. I'd render aid to either category in a heartbeat, as would any sailor worth their salt.

Captain Catboss @choster.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Billionaires buy boats that could use a 50 ft sailboat as a runabout and literally dock it inside their stern, next to their sports cars. They buy boats with multiple helipads in case their friends want to come over for dinner.

Captain Catboss @choster.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Billionaires buy boats that wouldn't be too worried about a whale encounter. They buy boats that when you look at them across the harbor at the rich person marina, you're like, oh wow, those little dots moving around on the deck are people!

Yeah, it's similar to how the dudebros pan just about any movie or tv show with a strong female lead, often before they even come out. Ew, gross, it must be for girls and therefore it's bad. 🤦

This might be one of the footnotes of the Butlerian jihad that got lost in the shuffle...

I mean, feel free to show the internet your entire ass. 🤷

1) So are the vast majority of people that live on boats. It's like making fun of people living in trailer parks for getting hit by a tornado or flood. 2) The ocean is trying to kill you the entire time. Compassion and camaraderie are the emotions you should reach for here.

Some features are better than others. This one is a gem.

Fun fact: the Kármán line is 60 km below the anacoustic zone... so there's rather a lot of space where people could, at least theoretically, hear you scream.

020

Captain Catboss @choster.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Gross. Do you laugh when a wildfire or tornado hits a trailer park?

000

Captain Catboss @choster.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Tell me you've never known a liveaboard without telling me you've never known a liveaboard... Sure, some have a bit more scratch than others (new vessels, crewed vessels, or catamarans) but the spectrum is about the same.

That crust looks... *fans self* delightful!

Captain Catboss @choster.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

I'm so glad they are safe. As a lifelong sailor and lover of the ocean, YES, I also hope the whale is okay, but y'all can step the fuck off with the anti-sailor bullshit. If you've never been out of sight of land on a small craft for days on end, you just have no idea. Show some respect.

I'm reminded of the fire extinguisher at my last job that was mounted on the opposite side of the wall from the big red sign declaring its location. They were separated by about 100 steps. 🤣

Those are lovely! Also, my partner showing up and knocking on our door with a new haircut was a fun way to learn that I have a peculiar form of face blindness in a way I will never ever live down. 🤣

My boys got their jabs too. We all need to do our part. Please keep the positive stuff coming. Need more of that in my day.

Pro tip: Coffee flavor is significantly improved if you've smuggled dem beans into a country because of their exorbitant tariffs.

"Slightly more likely" but also it's just a distraction that idiot is trying to use to justify his racism, when the painfully obvious reason people end up on welfare is that they'd rather not starve to death. smdh

This was for a tech job though. Might have been a positive note for someone applying to work outdoors in the summer heat. 🤷

I wouldn't bat an eye at someone bringing a coffee to an interview, and I've interviewed a hundred people in the past year. Years ago, I did turn up my nose at a guy that biked to an interview in Austin, TX on a hot day and opted not to take a shower or change and sat leaning back in his chair...

Half bear, half potato, Atlas would like to partake but sadly he has been excluded from the pro circuit.
