#PBS Carrier

[thatsrightice]

THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER ROCK

Saw this video on tik tok and loved it so much. Of course I immediately knew it wasn’t an aircraft carrier, but because I’m me I did some digging on the effects of rough seas on aircraft carriers.

I remember seeing the pitching deck covered in an episode of Carrier, a PBS documentary covering life on an aircraft carrier that I refuse to shut up about. In a previous post I highlighted the effects of the pitching deck on pilots during nighttime carrier landings and just how TERRIFYING they are by adding a video from PBS Carrier episode Rite of Passage. During that episode a pilot had this to say:

Dude, all I know was I was in close and they’re like ‘a little power’ and I look down and saw the ******* back of the ship above me and I was like AHHHHHHH!!!!

But it’s dark and we can’t really see from that one video just how much it’s moving but like holy swear word tumblr won’t let me say!

And it’s crazy because to those below deck it looks a little different. Thanks to the sheer size and intricate design of aircraft carriers, there’s nothing more than a little sway to those on board.

I mean one wrong step and you’ll be hitting something hard I’m sure.

Of course there’s more to it than that. One person stated that you really just had to time when to go up ladders like when the ship falls off of a big wave you’ll kind of float up the ladder. He also had the following to say:

The North Atlantic is a bitch during winter. On the USS Kennedy 1976, in really bad weather, the seas were very rough. The ship turns into the waves, and goes up and down, no “rolling”. I watched 6 sailors, watching the TV in the berthing compartment, rise 4 feet into the air, and fall back to the Deck. no one even moved from the chairs. They were watching the recorded “Muppet Show”. A big hit back then!

Insane.

I feel like Josh wouldn't be surprised about Buck being bi but he would definitely want to celebrate about Buck coming out....

Buck was not expecting to see Josh at 930 am outside his door with two ice lattes in a coffee carrier and a bag of donuts from Birdies.

"Josh, uh- what- what are you doing here? Did we have plans or something?" He asked worriedly as Josh walked through his door, he sensed before seeing Josh's wry smile that this wasn't exactly going to be a social call.

"Oh no, but you owe me Buckley." He set down the drinks and bag, pointing to Buck with an expression akin to annoyance. "You mean to tell me that despite you and I texting every other day about reality TV shows and how influencer should pay extra in tax for making traffic crap and are also in three separate group texts together, you didn't think to tell me "hey Josh, just a heads up, I'm dating a man who looks like he just walked off a cover of a dark romance novel"?"

Buck smothered a laugh behind his fist, he had seen how shocked and annoyed Josh had looked when he and Tommy had came into Chimney’s hospital room. He also saw Hen, Karen, and Josh eyeing them with what Tommy mentioned felt like he was going to have to get ready for multiple shovel talks.

"I-I thought about coming to you but I just wasn't sure who to talk to first, if I had to." Buck explained as Josh pulled the dozen of donuts. He figured Josh was actually upset when Josh slapper his hand as Buck was trying to get to the PB&J bacon donuts.

"Nope, that one is mine." He pointed at Buck's face, "I get to enjoy my donut while you tell me how you two met because now I get to live vicariously through my friend as I stay perpetually single."

Buck rolled his eyes as they both took a seat at the kitchen table. "Aren't you dating a doctor?" Buck asked teasingly, sipping on his iced latte happily as he watched Josh get slightly more irate.

"Yes, but I didn't bring him to Maddie’s wedding. Clearly my version of dating is different than what you and the Hot Pilot have going on." He paused and arched a brow at Buck. "Also, did I hear correctly that that was your third date with him?" Josh asked incredulously.

Buck gave out a flustered "I mean....technically I-I guess you could say it was our....second date?"

Josh pulled the cookie monster donut away from Buck's grasp. "C’mon man!" And pushed the plain glazed donut towards Buck.

"You get the plain till you tell me everything Buckley." He tapped on the table impatiently. "Spill."

Fawning over your commander probably isn’t a good idea. He’s a clone, albeit very different than most, no doubt to be decommissioned after a few more months, and seems to hate your presence more than most of the other troopers he orders around. It isn’t going to stop you from making some moves, however. You just can’t help yourself.

Lidded eyes rake over his hunched figure in the carrier, watching how he handles his rifle with care and meticulous attention. 

“Y’know, I might need some private lessons.”

Crosshair’s visor tilts up to look at you.

“Is that so?” His serpentine voice is meant to be threatening and ward you off, you’re aware, but it all draws you in further.

“Well, yeah, I mean, I’m nowhere near as good with a blaster as you are,” You gesture knowingly at his rifle, chuckling softly to yourself when a depraved thought crosses your mind. The unwise part of you decides to mutter it, half-heartedly, yet still loud enough so he can hear damn clear: “And I’m sure you’ll enjoy disciplining me.”

Silence fills the room; you expected this, but at the moment, it’s more hilarious than you anticipate. 

“Something wrong, commander?” Your voice tilts up an octave, tilting your head and batting your eyelashes. You wish to look innocent, teasing, desirable and captivating, something for him to conquest and take like you want him to. 

His rifle is left on the side of the crate, and he slowly lifts his bucket off, the slow hiss not too dissimilar to his cadence of speaking. Crosshair places his helmet on his lap and looks at you with a mean brow.

“You’re flirting with me.” It’s a statement, something he’s sure of.

“I am,” You respond bluntly. You tilt your chin down, and something close to a pout droops on your lips. “Do you want me to stop?”

His gaze lingers before finding a new place away from your eyes, before returning with a new face faux worn.

“I haven’t decided yet.”

Well, that isn’t the response you expect.

“Alright.” Your eyebrows knit, lazily and carelessly, as you try to piece together why he doesn’t shut you down immediately at his realization that you’re flirting with him, your commander, your superior.

But you don’t have time to think about that. He speaks again.

“I think we should circle back on those private lessons.”

You blink and look at him with a genuinely stunned expression.

“We should?” You don’t intend for it to come out so stagnated as it does; Crosshair doesn’t seem to like your doe-eyed surprise.

“Don’t make me regret this decision,” He articulates the words like you’re a child and wouldn’t understand if he were to speak any less clearly. You nod shakily and bite your lip, suddenly finding the way you stand awkward and hard to keep. He stands up and takes two strides before he’s barely a few centimeters close to colliding with your body, and instructs you, 

“Meet me at my quarters tomorrow. 1900 sharp.”

You can tell there’s a wistfulness in your eyes that’s incredibly embarrassing. But he seems to enjoy it from the way he smirks. Have you ever seen him smile before?

No time to focus on that.

“Understood?”

“Yes, sir.”

I saw your original clones post and I was curious to know more about each of them if that's ok? I really like the one with purple hair

You're the first Anon of 2023. You're also lovely for asking me about my blorbos, thank you :')

This is gonna be a little long so I'll keep it under a readmore, but like, I'm keeping batchmates together because it's easier to explain who's who if I do it like that. I'll also be addressing them each through order of appearance so it's less confusing.

Anyway, lets do some clone talk!

---

First lets start with my 104th ARCs, Bully and Jawbreaker. They were former members of Krell's Battalion and two of his favourite punching bags, which is where they got their scarring from.

They were pulled into the 104th by Maeleen Eppa, a natborn engineer that noticed their fearful and distrustful nature when Plo Koon's battalion ended up working with Krell's on the same mission.

They're the hard-ass older brothers because, back on Kamino, they lost two batchmates during training exercises, and then had two much younger cadets (Tup and Dogma) introduced into their squad to even out the numbers. It's become second nature to be protective of Shinies, and even if they don't trust very easily they are loyal to a fault (unless they feel like they've been personally betrayed).

They sadly don't make it post Order 66.

Next up we have the tragedy that are Pox and Syrup.

Pox was a clone medic trainee on Kamino that got along brilliantly with his batchmates. Despite the hardships of training, he was always kind, reliable and willing to drop everything to help someone else along the way. Syrup was no different from his batchmate, and while he was training to be a simple foot-soldier, he was going to be acting as a reserve medic as well for whatever battalion he ended up in.

They were finishing training during the last leg of the Clone Wars, when suddenly Sulu Ra called for Pox's squad to partake in some kind of a training exercise. Syrup was, at the time, in medbay for an injury he'd sustained during training, so he wasn't brought along for whatever mystery exercise they were being tasked with.

Long story short... It was a bioweapon test... One that killed several clone troopers that hadn't even graduated yet; left Pox as a carrier of a highly infectious disease that continuously mutated within him, while he went on the run; and which left Syrup essentially without his closest brothers to rely on...

While Pox eventually finds a group of vode to connect with post Order 66, Syrup isn't as lucky. His inhibitor chip was faulty and began to rot inside of him, much like Tup's had, and it obliterates his sense of self to the point where he doesn't consider himself a person. Just a tool to be used by the Empire.

Next up Hyena, a medic of the 104th.

Like with Bully and Jawbreaker, he wasn't originally with the 104th. He was assigned to the 501st with his squad from Kamino, which he never got along with because they were a bunch of unrelenting bullies that thought they were better than everyone else. The disagreements got so bad that eventually he grew fed up enough to request a transfer, and managed to get into the 104th where he felt much more at home.

There's not much to say about Hyena other than, he has quite the sense of humor and love for terrible jokes/puns.

Still unsure what happens to him post Order 66.

We're missing one of them (Goch) due to his face being a little harder to draw than your average clone due to several facial deformities, but next up comes the Long Name Squad.

Lichtenberg, Pretty Boy and Olly are in the 501st, 212th and Coruscant Guard respectively, while Hippo and Cala were never in battalions due to the two of them (and Goch) being confined in Sulu Ra's private lab.

Lich is the accident prone but often optimistic and carefree older brother of the batch, PB is the token pretty boy with a bit of a sassy mean streak, Olly is the responsible but heavily traumatized one, and Hippo and Cala are still getting used to being free at all.

Side-notes: Hippo's goggles are technically a visual aid because her cyclopsia has left her vision severely impaired. Cala needs a cane to walk due to her polymelia making her a little top heavy (she has four arms). Both used to be conjoined twins before being surgically separated.

They have a relatively happy ending post Order 66, even if getting to it is an absolute hardship that tests their bonds repeatedly.

Next up, Seafood Squad! And boy howdy these ones are such a burning trash-fire of a mess...

In order we have Geoduck, Conch, Crayfish, Jelly and Sponge. All of them were in the scuba trooper program before Sponge (who had always been a target of Kaminoan scrutiny, due to a set of circumstances that still make them very uncomfortable) was ultimately pulled from it and forced into the medical training program.

This seemed to cause a sizeable rift between Sponge and the three eldest members of their batch (one that grew overtime due to Conch's pettiness and Crayfish's indifference). Jelly, the most amicable and compassionate of the batch, stuck with them for the long run and refused to grow distant. The two of them were so inseparable to the point where Sponge begged Jelly to come with them into whatever battalion they got assigned, rather than go with the others. Jelly accepted, pulling out of the scuba trooper program and worsening the growing contempt a certain member of the batch felt towards Sponge.

Ultimately, Geoduck, Conch and Crayfish were assigned to Kit Fisto's battalion, while Jelly and Sponge were assigned to the 501st. Jelly then died in an incident that heavily traumatized Sponge, and from there on out the rest of the batch (mostly Conch) blamed them for the death of their favourite vod'ika, and stopped contacting them at all. This left Sponge alone to deal with their trauma, which they didn't do very well...

A lot happens to them throughout the war itself and, at some point (likely driven by guilt and shame of being such a poor excuse for an older brother), Geoduck decides to try to mend the relationship between the batch and Sponge. But, due to his rather unique issue (face blindness so severe that he honestly has trouble recognizing anyone), he never managed to do so during the war itself. Mostly due to Conch actively sabotaging his attempts, and Crayfish simply not caring enough to help because he'd rather not stick his nose into any drama.

Side-Notes: Geoduck, Conch and Jelly have sea creature themed names which they decided on when they first began their scuba training. Crayfish has a freshwater creature themed name instead, because he may or may have not eaten a live crayfish that he pilfered from the Kamino Kitchens during the night.

Meanwhile, Sponge is not named after sea sponges at all. They are instead named after surgical sponges due to a... Rather unfortunate incident during their training... In an ironic twist it just fits their batch's theme in a way.

What happens to the great majority of them post Order 66 is still a WIP, but I know how Sponge's story ends and I'm very pleased with it.

These three next ones are fun... Introducing Medic Canivete of the 212th, Officer Incognito of Krell's Battalion, and Ordnance Specialist 8-Ball. The one batch who can't decide which is the sane one of the group (none of them are).

Cani is essentially a Swiss army knife in terms of skills. She's officially a medic on record, but she also does a lot of flight crew tasks and a spot of engineering here and there. A girl has to keep herself busy after all! And she just likes to learn new things.

Incognito is an anxiety-riddled mess that wishes he wasn't often so unlucky with what life throws his way (he cannot get a break the poor sod), and has a lot of self-doubt that plagues him during his introspection sessions. He's living with a lot of survivor's guilt due to the situation he's stuck in (pretending to be a droid while trapped in a Venator he's trying to stir away from Republic space so the seppie droids that took over don't slaughter any more of his brothers), but overall seems to be in relatively safer hands with the droids than when he was under Krell's command.

8-Ball is a bit of an enigma to most. He's a happy go lucky sort, lover of anoobas of all shapes and sizes, and also a force sensitive clone with a predisposition for precognition that he doesn't recognize as anything else other than "gut feelings". He's a fun guy who doesn't have one mean bone in his body, and who's predictions have earned him both his name and a bit of infamy among other clones, since he mostly seems more attuned to "guessing" less than positive events to come...

I'm not entirely sure what happens to them post Order 66...

[REDACTED]

Before Fox became the Marshal Commander of the Coruscant Guard, the title belonged to Sturm... His predecessor who was met with a terrible fate for caring too much and trying to investigate things he should have averted his gaze away from...

Lets just say there's more than one reason why Fox keeps his mouth shut about what goes on on Coruscant, and Sturm's unfortunate fate is one of those reasons.

Order 66 doesn't much matter in this case. Sturm was already doomed from the start.

Finally we have Mythos Squad, a squad of clone commandos who deserted the GAR after their Jedi General (Vikerius Kwinde) was killed by Grievous.

In order we have Dragon (the defacto leader), Komainu (the designated medic), Basilisk (the sniper), Gremlin (the designated technician) and Kerberus (the demolitions expert).

There's not much to say about them because unfortunately Kerberus is the last one standing post Order 66. He was deafened during torture, so while listening to the GAR radio chatter the others heard the order being called out while he could not (thus they attempted to terminate him for disobeying the order, and he had to kill them in self-defense, something that will never stop haunting them).

1, 33, & 39 for the 50 questions thingy. Please & Thank You.

1. What are three shows in your watchlist that you’ve been meaning to get to?

- All Creatures Great and Small (but I’m missing so many episodes on my DVR that I just keep waiting to see if PBS airs them again)

- Star Trek Prodigy (I watched the first few episodes during my free trial of Paramount last summer before getting sucked back into watching Voyager again instead, and now that I have Paramount again through my phone plan I keep getting distracted by other things)

- Abbott Elementary - it’s on my DVR but I just haven’t started it

33. Headphones or earbuds?

My favorite pair is a set of SleepPhones, which are flat speakers in a soft headband that I can wear to sleep when I have to share a room or am somewhere noisy (like in a rack on a ship) but are also comfortable for long periods of wear like on planes. I mostly don’t wear headphones if I can avoid them, which I can do more easily because I live by myself.

39. What was the best part of your day today?

I spent today volunteering at Lego shipbuilding event at the local Navy museum, and it was so much fun (because I love Legos and ships). I mostly didn’t build things because my job was to help people build or find pieces or just answer questions, but I did at the last minute build an aircraft carrier and it was fun! Also all the ship kits near me were ships I could tell people about the history of and I like nerding out about that!

[griddlezeeninth]

it always baffles me as someone who was raised on pbs and either on sesame street or mr rogers there was an episode showing you how beekeeping worked? so how are people so confused as to how it’s good for bees?

As a kid, i considered beekeeper to be one of the 10 basic jobs you could have:

1. firefighter

2. postal worker/mail carrier

3. librarian

4. artist

5. doctor or nurse

6. teacher

7. construction worker

8. working in a grocery store (or any store really)

9. beekeeper

10. marine biologist

vegans make peace with honey

no shut up do it

Yeah, I uesd the old mediocre stew that was just broth to start the new stew

Spice level? Perfect. Could bearly tell is was their cuz the soup was Rip Roilingly Hot, but once you're done eating the heart carriers on

Oh, and what's that? I made drop biscuits as well, from scratch, no Pillsburys bullshit. Or as I call it "Pb's Bs"

And do I EVEN neeed to mention that yesterday I not only organized my room, I also phoned the government AND phone my bank AND this morning had a doctors call

Sooo basically, I'm actually SO good at this and I don't even have a learning disorder

PB will be down on Tuesday for an upgrade. I wonder what handy features they might take away and what bugs they might add while they’re at it.

So today was bombing day, and the rat was great. I sat in the back seat of the car behind Tom, and she was next to me in her little pink carrier, perfectly behaved. We stood in the driveway for the first hour while he did laundry in the laundry room, and she was curious enough to walk around a bit at first. She explored the back of the back seat and sat on my lap a few times. She can’t get around as easily as she used to because she’s too big and too old now, so she didn’t jump onto the floor of the car, even though she looked down at it and probably wanted to. She went back and forth between her carrier and sitting with me, but she spent most of her time hanging out in her carrier. She knew that was her own personal spot in the car, LOL.

Shortly before 10:30, we headed to Burger King, and the three of us enjoyed a breakfast sandwich and hash browns—in the car, of course.

Tom had me a little worried yesterday because he suddenly got this intense tooth pain. He iced it, and that fortunately took it away. I know his phobia of dentists, but I also know how excruciating a dying tooth can be. It’s worse than the worst period cramps I ever had!

It can also be a symptom of a heart attack, but luckily it went away, and he didn’t have any other symptoms.

The pulmonologist’s office called to confirm my appointment, which I thought was a little weird. They’re so behind the times that they can’t text people so they can respond at their convenience?

Polls say Kamala is a little ahead, but since it goes by the electoral vote and not the majority, the polls are pretty meaningless. Hillary beat Trump, but it didn’t matter in the end, and it won’t matter this time around either.

I got a lot of physical activity prepping for bombing and then sorting things out when we returned, along with folding laundry and making the bed. So tomorrow it’s back to my stretching exercises, a few minutes on the treadmill, and some light Bowflexing. I can only lift a small amount of weight because of my shoulder. I’m hoping this will strengthen it so I can go back to lifting as much as I can.

Song of the Day - February 21, 2024

I might be one of the few people under 50 years old that enjoys watching PBS Broadcasting. Beyond growing up with all the kids shows they still produce interesting programming that actually teaches you something. This is one of my favorite documentary opening scenes. From “CARRIER” this is The Killers: All These Things I’ve Done

[xec]

turns out he’s a boy! and we’re keeping him because he’s not chipped or feral. his name is PB 🐱

he’s on antibiotics and flea meds now and we’re taking him back next week to get his first round of vaccines.

the vet visit today was $224 and it’ll be another $85 next Monday. he’ll also need about $100 worth of supplies (litterbox, food, carrier, etc.)

I’m the only one working in my family rn so if any of you are feeling generous enough to cover a portion of the costs I would be super grateful 🥲❤️

YES

it took the entire day since 7am and also the help of some neighbors but we finally got her!

[ad_1] Many semiconducting fabrics are imaginable applicants for sun cells. In recent times, perovskite semiconductors specifically have attracted consideration, as they're each affordable and simple to procedure and allow top efficiencies. Now a brand new find out about displays how terahertz (TRTS) and microwave spectroscopy (TRMC) can be utilized to reliably decide the mobility and life of the rate carriers in new semiconducting fabrics. The use of those size knowledge it's imaginable to expect the possible potency of the sun mobile upfront and to categorise the losses within the completed mobile. An important houses of a semiconductor for use as a sun mobile come with the mobility and life of electrons and "holes." Each amounts may also be measured with out contacts with spectroscopic strategies the use of terahertz or microwave radiation. Alternatively, size knowledge present in literature ceaselessly range via orders of magnitude. This has made it tough to make use of them for dependable checks of subject matter high quality. Reference samples measured "We needed to unravel those variations, and contacted professionals from a complete of 15 world laboratories to analyse standard resources of error and issues of the measurements," says Dr. Hannes Hempel from the HZB workforce led via Dr. Thomas Unold. The HZB physicists despatched reference samples produced via the workforce of Dr. Martin Stolterfoht at College Potsdam to each and every laboratory with the perovskite semiconductor compound (Cs,FA,MA)Pb(I,Br)3) optimised for balance. Higher knowledge for higher prediction One results of the joint paintings is the considerably extra exact resolution of the shipping houses with terahertz or microwave spectroscopy. "Shall we determine some neuralgic issues that need to be regarded as sooner than the true measurements takes position, which permits us to reach at a lot better settlement of the consequences," Hempel emphasises. Any other results of the find out about: With dependable size knowledge and a extra complicated research, the traits of the sun mobile may also be calculated extra exactly. "We imagine that this research is of significant hobby for photovoltaic analysis, as it predicts the utmost imaginable potency of the fabric in a sun mobile and divulges the affect of more than a few loss mechanisms, comparable to shipping limitations," says Unold. This is applicable now not handiest to the fabric elegance of perovskite semiconductors, but additionally to different new semiconducting fabrics, which is able to thus be examined extra temporarily for his or her possible suitability.
