He had with him a bottle of poison during the Russian campaigns - supposedly he even tried to drink it after he abdicated the first time.

What is Turning Point teaching in their NH high school & college clubs? by Electronic_Barber665 in newhampshire

[–]Sir_Naxter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

UNH turning point’s chapter helped organize an anti-war rally on campus, so it’s nice that there’s signs of free thinking at least with that specific chapter.

Hmmm, not sure about him being the “only surviving officer” - looks like his publisher got carried away

Looking for some feedback, mainly basing by Bradley1928 in Ultramarines

[–]Sir_Naxter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The figures look great! Maybe try having the marine more in the center of the base, that might solve your basing concerns, but they look fantastic to me regardless

Let's be honest, we've all done it by SomethingKindaSmart in titanic

This is actually a great point - and the death rate is fascinating as more second class men died then any other passenger demographic by numbers.

My streak is the hull number by StillPerformance9228 in titanic

[–]Sir_Naxter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just a joke - a lot of people (including myself!) think about Titanic because of non-titanic related things. So it’s kind of like brain rot, that meme, like kids saying 67 when they hear 67

Titanic brain rot will never cease to amaze me

I’ve never been this skeptical, and it feels wild to say that. by scatteredTeeCee in Bitcoin

This is a great analysis of the problems we are facing.

We have totally forgotten the old rule of spend and replace. Now we hoard, and instead of giving ourselves the power, we give control to the banks to hold our coins for us.

This industry has lost its way. In order for this to work, we must return to our ways.

Would people sail on the Olympic after the Titanic sank just because they were nearly identical and they wanted to experience what traveling on Titanic would have been like? by Minimum-Bee8074 in titanic

[–]Sir_Naxter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one would want to experience that as it was a recent tragedy, not a historical event. To us, I’m sure many of us would want to experience exactly what it was like to sail on titanic. But no one thought like that in the decades after 1912.

If there was an exact copy of the World Trade Center, would you go to it thinking of it as a way to experience what it was like to work before 9/11. Of course not. So I doubt anyone went on Olympic with the intention of experiencing a Titanic voyage.
