[everyone is freaking out online]

me: time to post some thoughts about the majesty and peril of whaling
"A gentle joyousness—a mighty mildness of repose in swiftness, invested the gliding whale. ... Yet calm, enticing calm, oh, whale! thou glidest on, to all who for the first time eye thee, no matter how many in that same way thou may’st have bejuggled and destroyed before."
"Not the white bull Jupiter swimming away with ravished Europa clinging to his graceful horns; his lovely, leering eyes sideways intent upon the maid... not Jove, not that great majesty Supreme! did surpass the glorified White Whale as he so divinely swam."
