Good afternoon, Murder Drones Tumblr.

Thinking about Uzi. Specifically how her flight pattern changes depending on how "herself" she is.

Completely neutral (meaning herself, on her own accord, no possession at all), her flight pattern tends to be slightly erratic. She bangs into shit while landing too hard, and she just generally flies in an odd pattern. Look at how she lands in ep. 6 while going down the facility, not to mention the fact that she lands off kilter quite obviously in the background of one scene. Episode 7, with how she flies around the cathedral and kinda banged into the chandelier, then used the chain to slide down. Now I'm not saying she's incapable of smooth flight - she made her way across to the cathedral from the entrance (I don't think mouth is the right term here but if it is let's pretend I typed that where entrance is) of the cave, and flew down TO the lower floors of CFL without much issue (referring to that spiral down flight they did).

Between stages (not quite herself, but not quite completely Solver possessed as she was in ep. 4), we didn't get to see a lot of her actually flying. What comes to mind is her approaching Sam (smacking into the tree and spiraling down, but even so she CLIMBED down) and gunning straight for Lizzie - but even then, she didn't really seem to be flying, rather relying on them to carry her down towards her target. It seems that in that form she more relied on her boosted speed. Zoomies can be a bitch if not properly dealt with 😔😔

And then there's full possession as we see it in ep. 7. Suddenly she's a fucking master. Y'all remember how she flew while she picked Nori up and fuckin HIT HER WITH A PICAXE? Smooth, even wing beats. Good landings, never falls, looks fantastic. Largely because, that's not even her.

I dunno. It's not like groundbreaking evidence for anything I just think it's silly, and also very cool. Uzi has a specific style of flying and I think it's wonderful to see such a little detail so well noted down :3

For a hyperintelligent A.I or ancient outer god, the A.S is kind of a moron

If CYN's goal is simply to consume and destroy the planet like Earth, why send Murder Drones to sit around and kill the occasional drone for over a decade before arriving yourself?

Any solver host, the list, the cross cure, Cabin Fever Labs, and any drones on the planet would be destroyed if consuming Copper 9 leaves it in the state we see Earth in.

Arrive on world personally, go straight to CFL with an army of Murder Drones, brute force your way through the sentinels with hundreds of Murder Drones at once instead of sending squads in 1 by 1 to get picked off, drop down the core sinkhole and start the consumption.

Or better yet, land on the planet, make a new sinkhole right where you land, and drop down that. CYN made the first one easily so there's no reason why she can't make a second.

Quick and easy.

Instead CYN sends valuable Murder Drones to sit around for 10-20 years killing random workers before being sent into CFL piecemeal to get torn apart by Sentinels or tag-teamed by Alice and Beau. Only then does she arrive with a single Murder Drone as security to enter CFL and start the consumption.

Unless CYN's plan and goal is revealed to be far more complex in Ep8, Humanity deserves to go extinct if this is the level of strategic mastermind we're losing to.

what made u like Yeva so much?? honestly i like Yeva too but idk why lmao

I actually had a draft explaining why I love Yeva so much NENEJWBSJEBEH

Buckle the fuck up, its long

Honestly I can’t remember exactly what it was that specifically made me appreciate her more, I think it was in EP4 where I started paying more attention to her. I think it was mostly her hidden lore that drew me. Tho upon EP3 I thought she was a very interesting character

Honestly every appearance she makes made me think more of how she is connected to the lore and made me start to slowly connecting some dots, like her being behind the Site-48 “incident”

And honestly every appearance also makes me wanna give her a hug, poor woman looked traumatized

Idk they are lot of interesting details regarding her, like how she still kept the exact same CFL outfit, the site-48 incident, her eye possibly getting blown off by the AS in EP6, giving an explanation to Doll’s eyepatch. Her eye and Doll’s eyes going from red to orange bc of the AS. And hatever the hell she saw with her now-husband in EP4.

My Roman empire is religious symbolism, so when I figured out that Yeva = Eve in russian I was in love

Also am sucker for character who have ���illegal traumatized subject experiment” and “I may or may have gotten possessed by evil forces” plot

We gotta love possibly questionable, unstable, cannibalistic women with god powers

And also, am just naturally drawn to mysterious characters, they are fun. Even if people can consider bland characters or characters with very little info boring, to me it can be fun. Like tbh you rlly need a few small details regarding their personality and the rest can be up to you.

Also even if we have very info regarding her personality, the fandom and me where still able to get an idea on how she was and the different directions her personality can take

Bonus points for her being heavily implied to be Russian (am half-Russian, tho ironically I know very little Russian 💀)

Maybe you’re drawn to her visual designs or mysterious character or her lore or maybe some characteristic of her

Like one of the things that I think Yeva is known is apart from being close to Nori, is her “(0-0)” expressions she makes just like Doll does

So I live that despite the lack of screen time and no voice lines, she has a lot of lore hidden and connected. You are still able to pick up some details about her, like her personality and let’s not forget her death was a massive butterfly/Domino effect on the series.

love the idea of leman russ being the primarch that plays hockey - i’m personally stuck on him being a goon / enforcer (picks all the fights and generally a fuckin’ menace) with a history sort of like tiger williams. has an insane amount of penalty minutes but puts up enough goals that it doesn’t really matter if he (russ) spent a whole period in the box: he still got the game winner.

plus a lot of dogs love chasing pucks on and off the ice. my team usually had a dog practice before natties runs where they’d just hang out on the ice with us. a few of them were trained to collect pucks like MLB bat dogs so it was always a ton of fun (if you look up stlbluespup on instagram you can see pictures of their pup ambassador on the ice)

+ russ definitely watched the stanley pup with his dog this year

(and because it’s playoffs, the NHL is running the pants commercial that just zooms in on dylan larkin’s ass and thighs the whole time)

ANYWAY! sorry for dropping all that in your ask box lol! have a good one!

Oh, you don’t have to apologize at ALL, this is wonderful! I was raised in a CFL-fan house (go ticats!), not NHL, and even then I’m not very sports-brained, so I don’t really know the first thing about hockey. This is great information to have! The dog stuff is so cute, thank you especially for sharing that <3

[capt-capt-aye]

Ahoy again, intrepid Murder Drones fandom. A penny for your thoughts, about an aspect of how

✨UTTERLY FUCKED✨

Cabin Fever Labs likely was for literally everything and everyone in it.

So we've seen that those actual bastards were able to procure Yeva, Nori and presumably a bunch of other AS host drones...

But how the fuck did they GET there? Cabin Fever had to have either snatched them from the dumps on Copper 9, or managed to get a little system going for it. And if THAT process was anything short of hand-picking the drones and doing it all by hand, I'd bet my left lung that they used worker drone's to slog through all of that menial work. So YEAH

There's likely been at least a couple regular-ass worker drones either down there or that somehow managed to slip out that had to, and I'm sort of just paraphrasing here;

Butcher and piece back together the gored remains of other drones. And then witness said bodies rise from the fucking dead with crazy psychic powers and quickly growing psychosis. Fun!

But yeah, CFL is super fucking crazy and I feel like digging into the absolute horrors some of the drones had to deal with working for those fuckers would be a really interesting thing to explore.

Home Office Video Studio Lighting Stands

Home office video studios are quite often short on floor space. They are in many cases set up in a spare bedroom that is 10 feet wide and 12 to 15 feet down. That is about 33% of the size of an expert video studio. The legs of a typical light stand open up to about three feet wide. Put a few lights and a camera mount in your minuscule this website studio and it can get quite testing just to stroll around. Expanding your space implies finding imaginative ways of supporting your lights without resorting to cumbersome studio lighting stands.

Reexamine Your Lights

Enormous delicate lights are by and large the most ideal choice for studio lighting. They produce complimenting light and relax the appearance of shadows. Many home office video makers go to modest CFL-based softbox lights, yet these lights can be massive and require those floor space eating up light stands to hold them up. You can get a beautiful delicate light from different sources like rice paper lamps dangled from roof snares or enormous floor lamps with rice paper shades. Use bright CFL bulbs in the lamps and lamps to light up your studio without the light stands.

If your video creations generally include shooting with a webcam at your work area, attempt a few table top lamps with rice paper shades. They arrive in various sizes and crazy styles. If you are innovative, you might make your own lamps.

Keep the Studio Lights and Trench the Stands

Grasps are individuals on a film set who are liable for setting up the backings that hold the lights. Over many years they have created numerous sharp small amounts of hardware for mounting lights without using stands. For our purposes, the two most useful developments they have thought of are scissor mounts and mounting plates. A scissor mount is basically a standard light mounting stud with a little x-shaped section toward the end. This section can be clamped onto the help outline for a drop roof and allows you to hang a small light overhead. The mounting plate is small metal plate with a light mounting stud joined to the center. The plate can be appended to walls, roofs, or other solid items using straightforward screws. Then, lights can be connected to the stud.

Scissor clamps and mounting plates are not over the top expensive and will allow you safely to mount the lights in your home office studio without using studio lighting stands.

The Overlooked details are the main problem

Eliminating the studio lighting stands from your home office setup isn't hard. Yet, the keys to getting extraordinary lighting for the recordings you shoot are not really obvious. You have to pick the right kind of lights (or your varieties can look cleaned out or get bizarre variety projects, ) and you have to put the lights right lights in the right spot.

I have a wish for you

Open your eyes, stretch, make that little sound halfway between a groan and a sigh

Blink into the LEDs or the CFLs someone left on (was it you?)

I have a wish for you

Shuffle over, pick out something to munch on, bleary-eyed and half-asleep

Thank someone (is it you? Is it family? Is it friend?) for knowing just what to get so you could low-effort eat

I have a wish for you

Look up

Watch the blues change with every hour

Watch the greens shimmer in the light and wind

Listen

I have a wish for you

As the hours continue, as your day goes on, as you meet and part from people around you

I wish for you to look at these little things each day

To see them for what they are

A sign that you are not alone, that there is someone out there that cares for you deeply, even if unseen

Even if that person is just yourself

Maybe you believe in something, maybe you dont

There is still at least one person that will always have your back

And it's okay if you only know about one person (or if you know about none)

I have a wish for you

I wish you a wonderful day

Gary "The Gut" Goombah - Week 13, 2024

Gary “The Gut” Goombah – Week 13, 2024 Week 12 Recap Gary’s been throwing darts lately. His Noviembre is muy lousy. Although “The Gut’s” college football selections were nasty, at least he salvaged a solid Sunday with his NFL picks. And then the CFL’s Grey Cup was disappointing as well. But now it’s time. Thanksgiving is time to step it up. Let’s go Gary! NCAA Selections last week Ohio State…

The reason I love the CFL is there is a game called the Banjo Bowl because a punter was making fun of a rival fanbase and called them a bunch of banjo picking inbreeds. Instead of him being fined or suspended, a silly trophy was made for the game and it’s been 18 years of the Banjo Bowl following up the Labour Day Weekend game.
