I mean y'all are all smarter than me on this, obviously! 🤣

Although if we're actually being semantic about it, we're not orbiting it either

A promotional graphic in red, soft pink, and orange tones, evoking a 70s vibe. The background features a stack of books and a rainbow. The text reads: A very queer march Itch.io book bundle 63 LGBT+ books for $60! Save 75%! tinyurl.com/a-very-queer-march

Narratively having Ever Given getting stuck in 2021 to set up Hormuz in 2026 is great foreshadowing. You want your audience to understand the basics of international shipping in a lower stakes context so you drop the real plot without a lot of saggy exposition about the minutiae of cargo logistics.

I don't know how to even exist right now.
