Candy wrapper, beer can, soiled diaper, mattress on the side of the road, abandoned RV, passenger vessel, decommissioned orbitals off-planet. Human capacity to scale its footprint relative to the want-waste-want cycle is grotesque... but not as debilitating as humanity's expectations that other living entities and systems - now struggling to survive the overwhelming onslaught - continue to absorb the impact. ______________________________

Maritime superstitions are as old as seafaring itself, and one of the most pervasive beliefs is the ominous nature of Friday the 13th. Mariners have long held a deep respect for the unpredictable and often perilous nature of the sea, leading to a rich tradition of superstitions intended to protect them from harm. Among these, Friday is considered an unlucky day to set sail, a belief likely rooted in Christian tradition. When combined with the number 13, which has its own history of being deemed unlucky, Friday the 13th becomes a particularly dreaded date. Sailors might avoid embarking on voyages or undertaking significant endeavors on this day, opting instead to wait for a more auspicious time. While modern science and technology have greatly improved maritime safety, these superstitions remain a fascinating reflection of the human desire to find patterns and seek protection in the face of the sea's vast uncertainty. #maritime #fridaythe13th #shipyard #portangeles #superyacht #boats #superstitions #platypusmarine #platypus #pacificnorthwest #olympicpeninsula

The Story of the 1914 Endurance Expedition In 1914, Sir Ernest Shackleton set out on an expedition to cross Antarctica. Shortly after the journey began, their ship, the Endurance, became trapped in the ice and was eventually crushed, leaving the crew stranded in one of the most inhospitable environments on earth. Despite the dire circumstances, Shackleton's leadership and unwavering optimism kept the team united and motivated. He made critical decisions to ensure their survival, led them through treacherous conditions, and demonstrated remarkable resilience and ingenuity. After months of enduring harsh conditions, Shackleton and a small group embarked on an 800-mile journey in a lifeboat to seek help. Their perseverance paid off, and they were able to secure a rescue for the entire crew. Remarkably, not a single life was lost. Lesson for the Team Like Shackleton's crew, we may face unexpected challenges and setbacks. However, by staying united, maintaining a positive attitude, and showing resilience, we can overcome any obstacle. Just as Shackleton's team trusted each other and worked together, so can we. Let's channel that same spirit of determination and teamwork as we tackle our own goals. Encouraging your team to embody the qualities illustrated in the story can lead to a motivated, resilient, and cohesive team ready to face any challenge. #leadershipskills #staymotivated #crewwellbeing
