250 years military maritime sea clocks 2023 marks the 330th anniversary of John Harrison's birth but also the 250th anniversary since the last bit of Longitude Prize money was awarded by British parliament. In 1773, 80 years old English clock maker John Harrsion was awarded the final amount of Prize money for his " seawatch n° 1 " H4 clock which solved the Longitude problem. Harrison had been working half a century to perfect his watches . Note the great details in these paintings, with Harrison holding John Jefferys watch and his own H4 clock on the table besides him. As Great Britain asserted its position with France and had to avoid these precious time keepers could be caught by Spanish or Dutch navy ships, copies of Harrison H4 were sent on sea trials. A time of sextants and clocks, while today's rise of technology has isolated us from the natural World, unfortunately much to our detriment. (National Maritime Museum - Greenwich GB)

I’m really hoping we get Triumvirate Holdings easter eggs during season two of the pjo series. Like I want to see their logo on the princess andromeda so bad.

In the beginning of SoM, where Percy was a hero for a year he already fears his full name because it means that monsters are nearby.
Now imagine an older Percy, maybe after losing Jason getting in an argument with his mum and Sally using Perseus. And his hand is already in his pocket, eyes wide open looking out for danger. And she just breaks.

One question for the PJO fandom. Where did calling Nico “neeks” come from? I read the entire series and kept going “oh, his nickname will pop up in this book!” By the time I got to The Sun and The Star I felt delulu. Where???

Do you think Drey’s amnesia extends only to the lore or history based memories and events/people that factor into his trauma? Or do you think he’s also forgotten some mundane things?
Do you think Drey remembers that he’s allergic to bees?

Hello PJO Fandom!
I am @hallsoffandom, and I am attempting to host a seasonal gift exchange for the fandom with deadlines around the equinoxes and solstices.
I wanted to do a quick interest check to see how many people would be interested in participating, as well as putting out an open call for 1-2 moderators to help me run this event. If you are interested in moderating, there will be a section below the poll explaining what to do in order to apply for a moderator position.
For anyone interested in moderating, these would be the things expected from you if chosen for the moderation team:
help answer asks of questions that come into the blog
help match gifters with requests from gift recipients
help send out the gift assignments after all matches have been made
help track down or assign pinch hitters to any gifts not completed by the deadline
make sure that all the rules of the exchange (which will be posted later this week) are followed by participants
If these expectations seem reasonable to you, here is how you should apply for the moderation team. Dm me @hallsoffandom with these things:
Name (what you prefer to go by online)
How long you have been a part of the PJO fandom
Your experience level with event/exchange running (saying none is NOT an automatic denial of you application, I will still consider you)
Your experience level with Google Sheets
If you pass through the first round of moderator applications, I will ask you a few more questions to determine if you are a good fit for the moderation team.
