Whoops

hello generation loss enjoyers. it has been several months since the release of ranboos project, how have yall been? im going to be insane.

Many folks have known me as the lminal space connosieur, dead malls and fucked up houses in particular being my strongsuit for both their sex appeal and the amount of symbolism they can all hold.

Watching Gen Loss with my friends through a hostage situation was a wonderful experience! upon the reveal of the Showfall Media offices being inside a rented out mall, there was a split second where I was a bit unamused at the lack of effort put into integrating the mall's architecture into the studio's office. There were only a few empty stores being used with at the bare minimum some chairs and desks, half the mall was still closed, the mini maps stands were still up, and the food court's usage as the streamers hub was very just. like. thats a whole ass food court. without the people walking around the only way to actually know what the hel this was being used for was the giant white banner that just said showfall media like a fraternity's house claiming its territory.

But then, as the episode 2 closed out, almost instantly it hit me why. why the mall was still a mall, why there was little to no integration for the set- it was on purpose. it was supposed to just be a studio crammed inside a mall. a dead mall, to be precise.

first lets get into the anatomy of what makes a dead mall dead. Around the 1980's a rise in popularity of the commercial supermalls began to spread, the american consumerist dream was rampant with a greater demand of fast fashion, merchandise, and all kinds of strange trinkets for the average american to waste their money on. It was capitalism's wettest dream, but as the years went on there came a steady decline in popularity. Sometimes the competing businesses ended up putting each other out of stock, maybe the trends began dying off, and in certain areas consistent crime rates drove away costumers.

Then in the mid 2000's the stock market crash ended up pushing several people into poverty, the lower class unable to afford the luxury goods offered at shopping centers. Then online shopping took society in a deathgrip, further pushing away the desire for in-public purchasing. Brands took notice and began selling online-exclusive products. In the late 2010's the sightings of several "dead malls" were on an alltime high, some being left to rot while others were demolished all together in favor of empty concrete spaces.

Corporate response to this was one of two things; continously invest in the "Anchor Stores" (big chain stores like Macys or Forever 21 that brought in more customers, usually stationed at the ends of the mall). Meanwhile the smaller businesses inside would be shut down one by one to save costs, until eventually the anchor stores themselves would be forced to leave. Sometimes the Anchor Stores would leave beforehand, not wanting to waste money investing in a deadend location. the decline is faster, the mall rots quicker. The company sells the lot to the biggest buyer and destroys what little remains.

Then there are times where the mall itself is sold off to another bigger company, in hopes of more funds to rejuvenate the center. Majority of the time the mall will enter a large reconstruction designed to look more appealing, mor modern. In actually, the personality of the malls architecture is stripped like the skin of prey. The colors and vibrant shapes of the late 1900’s, the waterfalls with rocky beds and marbled beige tiles, all replaced in favor of sharp black on white edge and stainless steel fencing. The occasional shrub here or there, maintained by automation. Lights too bright, all glimmer, all space. Sometimes it works, sometimes the mall is reborn as the pinnacle of luxury again! Sometimes it rots in shiny chrome, a corpse dragged along in the hopes of attracting attention. All it does is stink and bloat, a miserable display.

I hope you begin to catch what im saying.

In Generation Loss, the Showfield Social Experiments are commentary on streamer culture and the damaging relationship between a content creator & their platform. Visualized by Ranboo being pushed into dangerous scenarios for the sake of entertainment, their disposable friends forced into the flat archetypes the fandoms have labeled them as.

They were all vibrant young folks once, bright with personality and that raw humanity filled with flaws and voice cracks. Shitty microphones and inconsistent uploads, some were barely finishing high school. Then they became big, almost too big. They were characters now, and just like Ranboo’s teammates the perception of them as humans were dumbed down to memorable trademarks. Streamers and Content Creators alike had to be marketable now, and when the time comes where they lost their popularity sometimes they sign off to groups and organizations to help boost them up again. They are stripped of their rawness again. Theres a reason their artforms are called “content”.

So it makes sense that Showfall Media, the personification of the content creators downfall, would do the same to a Mall. The corpse of the center is repurposed loosely to fit the studios purpose. It is empty, it is hollow, it is dead. Low costs, big risks- just like Gen Loss Ranboo.

basically

Content Creators are Dead Malls.

Bahama Cruise 2022, Part 26, May 19 Normans Cay, New Providence, Bimini

This is a C-46 Curtis Commando aircraft used by Pablo Escobar to run drugs to America. It crashed shortly after takeoff from his island, Normans Cay. It is one of the more popular snorkel sites in the Exumas.

I am very partial to this aircraft because I flew three of them for Air Haiti back in the late 70’s. We actually passed over this site on our weekly trips to and from Miami. Everyone knew that Escobar was using the island for drug running.

Glorious sunset west of Normans Cay. Nancy had spent the day paddleboarding, while Lars ran the dinghy around the island. Things were winding down. The next we would sail to New Providence, where Lars would fly home.

Nancy baked some cinnamon rolls for the trip today.

Great sail “down Island” which is actually northbound. From Staniel and Black Point back when boats did not have engines. They used the term “down Island” which really meant sailing down wind with the predominate trade winds. Nassau is north but down wind, hence “down Island”. Georgetown is south but upwind, hence they would go “up island”.

Nancy is at the helm while I kick back in the bean bag chair.

Palm Cay Marina on the south east corner of New Providence. We spent three nights here. Lars flew out the second day. We went walk about checking out a real world grocery store. Kind of recompressing back into city life. I wanted to get some Ricardo Coconut Rum, but the liquor store was closed on Sunday. You never know what a business really does or sells. The liquor store door was locked but there was a another door real close by. So I tried it and it opened. There was a table full of liquor including Ricardo Coconut Rum. All around the walls were hairdressing driers over chairs. With one lady sweeping the floor. I ask if this is the liquor store. She explains she had her birthday party the night before and this was left over liquor. She insisted that I just take a bottle of rum. So nice, but I left some money on the table and then left.

With Lars gone we move the boat to West Bay and anchor. Only a couple of boats left at this point. Sounding the conch horn at sunset.

Great day the next day with an easy crossing of TOTO (Tongue Of The Ocean) with following 3 foot seas. We shot through northwest channel and angled to the south of Mackie Bank. Sailed up to 0100 and anchored well off of the channel for a couple of hours. It was blowing hard and we snuggled up to some shallows but it was still a rolly anchorage.

This is an iconic wreck south of Bimini. This is the remains of Sapona a concrete ship abandoned in 12 feet of water. It was only 3 miles away from our anchor spot.

We spent 1 night at Brown’s Marina checking out of the Bahamas. Luckily they changed the rules and you do not need to check out of the country anymore. Above is one of the many Bull sharks that patrol the marinas in Bimini looking for fish scraps from anglers cleaning their fish.

After clearing outbound we motored around to Radio Beach and anchored for the night. This would give us a straight shot across the Gulf Stream at daybreak back to the U.S..

A power boat pulled up and dropped anchor near us. But he could not get his anchor to dig in. When he tried a second time, he realized the anchor had come off the end of the chain and was missing. They tried a couple of times to free dive down from their dinghy but could not retrieve the anchor. The sun was setting and you could tell they were getting frustrated and about to leave.

somI called them on the radio and offered to dive up the anchor. Turns out the Captain was the only free diver on the boat and he had ruptured his ear drum earlier. They picked me up by dinghy and I was able to get a line on the anchor for them. The shackle had been “moused” with stainless steel wire. But it had broken with constant use over 3 months. After checking mine, I found the same thing.

Great day of motor sailing back to the US. This was Memorial Day weekend with a constant parade of power boats heading to Bimini. Glad we were out of there.

The Admiral is secured by her sailing harness and tether, while crossing “the Stream”. We cross the reef north of Fowey Lighthouse.

Cutting through Stiltsville we avoid the party boats at No Name Harbor.

Having cleared US Customs while sailing down Biscayne Bay, Nancy lowers the Bahamian Courtesy flag. The flag is a bit more tattered than I would like. It is a badge of honor for those cruisers who have been in country for a long time. When you first get to the Bahamas the flag is bright and crisp. People can tell you are new.

First sunset back in the States while anchored near Caesar Creek. One more day back to our dock to end the season.

Before I shaved my beard I had to get a photo next to a drawing of my father after his crossing the Atlantic in 1968. Both of our beards about three months old. What do you think, any resemblance?

Thanks for following along with our first trip sailing three months through the Exumas in 2022. If you want to follow our second season use the search engine in Tumblr, typing in: SeaBreeze2023

Why are pallet racking anchors critical to the entire structure?

Pallet racking anchors are mechanical fasteners used to attach a racking system to a building. Their purpose is to hold the pallet racking in place and resist continuous counter forces such as: earthquakes, wind and tipping forces caused by narrow/high racking, accidental impact forces at the bottom of the columns (i.e. from forklifts) and shear forces (horizontal reaction forces) ) reducing the restraining capacity of the racking.

If the anchors are unable to withstand these attack forces, the consequences can lead to significant bending forces on the columns, affecting the overall stability of the system and, in the worst case scenario, leading to collapse. To avoid this, it is critical to select the correct type of anchor for the different conditions and types of racks in the facility.

What common types of pallet rack anchors can be found in warehouses?

Wedge anchors are a popular type of anchor made of carbon steel, hot-dip galvanized, stainless steel or galvanized steel. These fasteners are primarily used for solid concrete and cannot be removed if you decide to rearrange your pallet racking, as doing so would damage your floor. Concrete impact anchors are anchors in the form of impact expansion and are also used in solid concrete; given their mechanical properties, they should not be installed in any other type of masonry material.

Screw anchors are a less common type of fastener found in warehouses. They are used for temporary or permanent anchoring, since they can be removed and can be installed in concrete and masonry.

Finally, we have sleeve anchors that are perfect for light to medium anchoring in concrete and masonry. Whichever type of anchor you choose, you will find a variety of diameters, lengths and thread lengths.

What size pallet rack anchor is appropriate?

A rule of thumb is that the wider the diameter and the deeper the embedment, the stronger the anchor will be. Therefore, it is important to check local building codes or have an engineer determine the bolt size given that several factors need to be considered: the size of the hole in the base plate of the column, seismic activity, and the area where the anchor is to be used. In addition, the thickness of the floor material, the mechanical properties of the floor material and the flatness of the floor should also be considered in case shims are needed.

How many anchors should a post base carry?

The ANSI/RMI standard states that all rack columns should be anchored using at least one anchor per column. Depending on the type of anchor, two anchors may be installed to prevent the column from rotating upon impact. In the event that the user is unable to properly secure the rack, it is recommended to work with the rack manufacturer’s engineers to verify alternative methods of securing the system while ensuring the structure is safe for use.

Should I tighten a loose anchor?

Bolts and anchors must be properly tightened to the minimum recommended torque specified by the manufacturer. 3/8'’ anchors are typically 40 foot pounds. Under-tightening will cause the anchors to fail.

Why are pallet racking anchors critical to the entire structure?
