Hey Critters, remember Caduceus' death whistle? Here's an estimation of what it may have sounded like.... check your volume first

Freddie Freeman comes up to bat

Literally three seconds later...

WHO. FREAKING. CALLED IT?!

They should just name the highlight film "Five Nights at Freddie's", especially from the Yankees' perspective! (Even more perfect since at this point the Yankees would be lucky to survive more than five nights.)

Sorry, I had to 🤣

Death Whistles and Happy Halloween! 🎃

Happy Halloween and a lesson in turbulence!

A "Death Whistle" is an Aztec instrument which gives off an eerie high-pitch scream, that is even more unsettling in person

Give it a listen!

This screech might only represent one type of this instrument since some of the original whistles excavated typically produce a softer whistle that is said to sound like the wind

This "wind" instrument was originally excavated in a template for Ehecatl, an Aztec and Mesoamerican wind god from the hands of a skeleton!

The only known ancient death whistles with archaeological context were published by Salvador Guilliem Arroyo in 1999. They were recovered from the hands of the skeleton of a sacrificed 20-year-old man that was found buried in front of the Ehecatl (wind) temple of Tlatelolco

This fascinating instrument works as a result of turbulence!

The whistle is made up of two hole, a smaller and a larger hole with a substructure in the middle with an entrance but no exit hole

First, air is blown into the smaller hole

But, instead of easily passing through the hole to the larger exit hole, air enters a substructure in line with the entrance in the middle of the instrument. The air becomes trapped in the middle structure

Trapped in the middle of the whistle, the air will be pushed back and out of the structure, against the flow of the air entering the structure

When the air entering the whistle collides with the air attempting to escape from the substructure it produces a chaotic turbulence, creating the SCREECH as it exits the larger hole on the other side of the whistle

Learn more from this excellent breakdown (where these diagrams originate from):

Death Whistles come in many shapes, but they all work on the same general principle with a larger and smaller opening so that air entering creates chaotic turbulence

Here is another nice diagram (r/pottery via szubka)

You don't even need clay! The principles of chaotic turbulence work on even simpler instruments. This creator makes death whistles from pipes:

So, I was today years old when I found out what an "Aztec Death Whistle" is:

So scary... 😖

On my third death whistle iteration. The first one was just a loud whistle

The second one was a quiet but happy sound. This one sounds promising so far. Thinking polymer clay might be better for this than stone-based clay.

Hear-hear me out just hear me out…

He does the f-king whistle before he comes out of the pool.

Quick Dp x Dc thingy.

We need more unhinged Danny. I don't mean silly unhinged, i mean terrifying, reaper like, Danny.

Imagine Danny but based on Death from Puss in Boots.

I can imagine this is a Danny that was pushed too far, not far enough to be Dan, but far enough to abandon a lot of his loved ones (not Jazz and Dani), and become more of an anti hero.

He can eventually encounter anyone from the dc universe. I personally like the idea of the Bats realising there is something going on at the Lazerous and then when they get there Danny emerges from the pit. He's there to pick up a soul, and that soul is Ras. Just murks that man with little to no effort scaring everyone.

Showing my best friend who's had to listen to two years of pirate brainrot pictures of the #OurFlagMeansDeath crew and getting her first impression thoughts and observations: a thread. 🧵 of 9 ⬇️

First up:

"I know that one, you've shown me your weird porn of him. He's got a new coat, and he's really happy about it but the guy behind him is like 'ahhh the label's still on it.'

'Oh it's Leslie Jones. Pretty much, that's just Leslie Jones looking great. She just turned up on set and they were like 'wow you look sick af' and then she was in it because she looked so fly. No one cast her, the camera just turned on.'

'OK, so someone's just told him 'I don't like this lasagne you made' and he's like 'it's my mother's recipe, how dare you! My nonna's spaghetti! She gone be so upsetti!'

'OK so this guy just turned up in one of those fast fashion shops for tweens and was like 'oh, finally, belly shirts are really in right now.''

Me: What do you think his name is?

Her, *whispered*: ...Fernando.

'This guy just fell over. It's really unfortunate. He's just really clumsy. Someone left something out on deck and he went 'whoopsie doodle!''

Me: you're actually pretty close to the truth.

Her, guessing wildly: 'oh boy, what a day to be... captain... smiggs?'

'Taylor.'

Me: just Taylor?

'Taylor... Swifts. Undercover. She wants to be on a boat now. She loves boats. Nautical-core. I don't know, I just looked at her and at first, tailor of suits, but then nope - Taylor of songs.'

'Oh this guy's a mime.'

Me: what do you think his role in the crew is?

Her: just a shit mime. He's just here so when they play charades he just wipes the floor with the rest of the crew.

'Someone's just gone in the bathroom, he was like 'urgh I really needed to go' and now he's sad. He's sad because he needed a shit. He's wondering whether to just go in the sea.

Me: where else would it go?

Her: like in a corner. I know how ships work, I've been on a cruise.

'Have you seen Ratatouille? It's like that, the seagull is controlling that guy. He makes the foodfor the ship, but all the food's just raw regurgitated fish, like a fucked up sushi bar.'

And, scene.
