A user in my Fin Fin discord, Bex, found many images of a previously unknown Fin Fin doll. It was apparently designed by Maru Yacco (a queer female artist!).
Happy Fin Fin Friday!

New York, 1903. "R.M.S. Majestic -- outward bound farewells." Photo via Shorpy.
The ship was under the command of Edward Smith, who served as captain until the following year. In 1904, White Star started assigning Smith as captain on their newest (and largest) ships as they were launched: the Baltic in 1904, the Adriatic in 1907, the Olympic in 1911, and of course, the Titanic in 1912.

Rumor is information distilled so finely that it can filter through anything. It does not need doors and windows--sometimes it doesn't even need people. It can exist free and wild, running from ear to ear without ever touching lips.
It had escaped already. From the high window of the Patrician's bedroom, Sam Vimes could see people drifting towards the palace. There wasn't a mob--there wasn't even what you might call a crowd--but the Brownian motion of the streets was bouncing more and more people in his direction.
Terry Pratchett, Feet of Clay

(from "Blue Blood")
I loathe people who raise their voice
only when they're in the crowds.
They have the red blood,
which simmers only in the dark.
And you have to face them
almost every night, unless
you have the sufficient territory.
In front of your tiny tight place,
they resonate with the vulgarity
and cruelty of life, always
spitting their red blood.
It's like a real hell, honestly.

The Parable of the Sower ~ Mark 4:1-9 (NIV)
Again Jesus began to teach by the lake. The crowd that gathered around him was so large that he got into a boat and sat in it out on the lake, while all the people were along the shore at the water’s edge. He taught them many things by parables, and in his teaching said: “Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root. Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants, so that they did not bear grain. Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up, grew and produced a crop, some multiplying thirty, some sixty, some a hundred times.”
Then Jesus said, “Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.”
