The sheer amount of ass-busting, ball-sweating work that the Battleship Texas Foundation folks have done...it's just humbling. Good for them.

EDIT: Also, the livestream of when they towed her from San Jacinto to the drydock was absolutely the coolest livestream that I’ve ever watched. Checked all the boxes of, like, “this is a historical event that I’m watching; there’s a real sense of occasion,” plus “this is like those slow-TV videos, where someone has a camera and walks through nature scenery.” I had that shit on all day.
