Walking through the Greenwich Foot Tunnel

[aneverydaything]

Day 2220, 21 July 2024

The Woolwich Foot Tunnel, London

Today I bashed off the final three stages of the circular Capital Ring walk. The final stage takes you through the Woolwich Foot Tunnel under the River Thames and back to the start of the walk in Woolwich. I've walked under the Thames through the Greenwich Foot Tunnel on many occasions and the Woolwich one is very different. Whilst the Greenwich tunnel is well used and is quite buzzy with its excited pedestrians, runners and cyclists, the Woolwich tunnel is much longer, very quiet and damp making it feel quite eerie and almost sinister. I was quite relieved to emerge unscathed on the other side!

thoughts on the wind tunnel situation

[waugh-bao]

@gadzooksvol1 It took me a minute to find, but even the contraptions thing fits:

[givehimthemedicine]

which lab tunnel ends connect?

here's the opening One shows El, in the HNL basement.

"this will lead you out beyond the lab fence to the woods," he says.

and here's the Mr. Clarke opening, where he finds the scrap of El's hospital gown.

thinking maybe Will crawled into this tunnel, the cops try to follow it to see where he'd have come out the other end, and run into the HNL perimeter fence. so the Mr. Clarke opening is very much Beyond The Lab Fence In The Woods.

pairing One's dialogue (if he's telling the truth) and that scrap of hospital gown, it seems very likely that the basement opening truly does connect to Mr. Clarke's, right?

so then what is this third tunnel opening that the lab's Head Of Security takes the cops to - claiming it to be where the Mr. Clarke tunnel leads?

Hopper knew the lab was lying because of the lack of rain in the surveillance footage of the HOS opening, which suggests the tape they showed him wasn't really from the night they said.

but are they also lying to him about this even being where the Mr. Clarke tunnel leads? ifthey just don't wanna let the cops into the HNL basement where that tunnel really leads, why fake the tape? what's there to cover up if this isn't even the same tunnel?

is this a wholly unrelated tunnel? could all three Y connect?

while we're here, why does the basement have that huge pipe at all? it's definitely a larger diameter than the outdoor ends, not that that proves anything, but why does it have to be so big? is it just like how in every movie the air ducts are large enough to crawl in for plot reasons?

john must’ve thought he was sooo funny making a trap where you’re meant to cut your foot off and then choosing an underground jigsaw lair that you have to climb a ladder to get out of

a little birdy told me you have some kind of an AU for the Funtime animatronics also?

... who is this.

There are, like, only 5 people who know about this. So which one of youse is it? >:'D (I am not mad. I am very glad to have the opportunity to tease it out. <3)

I am working on an AU featuring the Funtimes, little birdy is right! It's a very different flavour than Call of the Abyss, more of a fantastical drama than a science-fiction horror mystery. It is a tale of duty and responsibility, secrets and closets, choices and consequences, healing and growth, a farmer's child and a puzzling fae, and above all, it is a tale about two lonely souls whose fates are more closely intertwined than either realize.

It is also a tale full of fae shenanigans, fun and indulgence. It's not a serious epic like Call of the Abyss, and hopefully not as huge and ambitious either. 😂 So, dropping the serious act, it's a Fae AU in which some poor unsuspecting farmer gets caught up in the Funtimes' court's bullshit and learns to navigate a new social circle that seems hellbent on keeping their newest member close. I will make a new blog just for it, as there will be more, err, kid-unfriendly elements featuring in this one - I want to be able to properly curate my audience for this AU without alienating people who follow me here and like my non-explicit stories. So, until that's done, I'm leaving y'all with this little sneak peek. :)

today I learned that the eurotunnel is not, as I had (quite rationally) believed, a tunnel with a road through it that one can drive through.

no. instead of a road, people wanting to cross in their cars, have to…board a specially built train with their car. the train then travels through the tunnel. this whole ordeal comes with tickets needing booked and arriving x amount of hours in advance (as you would for a flight) and I’m just…..why. why was it decided that this would be the most efficient way to travel through a tunnel. why aren’t people just. driving through the goddamn tunnel themselves, like every-fucking-elsewhere in the world???

"Better for you to go down a list than have me spewing nonsense at you," Ricky says, chewing on his lip while crunching numbers. "Since robots are your deal, I'll let you pick and choose the kind of hardware you're willing to sacrifice. Fair warning, I'm not to be held responsible for any malfunctions during the alpha testing phase, and that includes shit catching on fire—" He's cut off mid-sentence when William takes him by the chin, pulling him away from his frenzied scribbling. Any and all snarky retorts for the interruption die on his tongue, the look in the eyes behind those horn-rimmed glasses one Ricky has never seen before. The kiss is fleeting, concluded with a playful rub of noses. His smile is private, meant only for Ricky to see despite him knowing he is not the first to have ever witnessed it. William plucks the pencil from his hand and, to his bewilderment, tucks it behind Ricky's ear. "It's a good look on you," he says, letting his hand trail down the flannel shirt to thread the top button closed. "Tell me what you need. I have a damn good memory." He's dead, in a box, on my kitchen counter.

Chapter 19 of Driving Through Tunnels is now up on AO3!

Freedom to work as you like!

Feathertail is a wearable mouse that fits around you quite literally. You can use it on your wrist, palm, foot or attach it to a hat or headset. The Feathertail can be used in whatever way is most comfortable for you.

Feathertail is designed to be easy to use for people with limited mobility. It requires no buttons to use, and with the included Velcro straps you can attach it to your shoes, hat, or headset. It opens up a variety of different ways to interact with your tech.

All day comfort

At 28g, the Feathertail doesn't put unnecessary strain on you, helping you to quickly recover from your injury and use the device for many hours a day without fatigue.

Great with wrist braces

Feathertail works great with wrist braces and wrist supports, helping speed up your recovery following an acute or repetitive strain injury.

Intuitive movement

The 3D orientation software runs inside the Feathertail. So when you move, the mouse cursor moves with you. There is no need to worry about keeping the device straight, or calibrating it for different working positions.

Long lasting battery & Plug and Play

The rechargeable battery that lasts more than a week between charges, so you don't have to worry about the Feathertail going flat when you need it most. Whether you're working sitting down, using a standing desk, or relaxing in bed you can control your PC with ease. Since the device doesn’t take up space on a desk or require setup, it’s easy to use on the move or from any a location.

Precision and speed

Having RSI or a disability shouldn't mean you need to use an inferior product. Feathertail is fast and it's accurate. There are three high-precision sensors inside the device – a gyroscope, accelerometer and magnetometer. The sensors provide data hundreds of times per second, so even small movements can be detected. Accuracy and smoothness of movement are further improved by the proprietary sensor calibration and data fusion software.

Feathertail communicates with your PC using a 2.4 GHz radio connection, so you can experience similar responsiveness as from any top-tier ergonomic mouse.

Works out of the box

Feathertail is plug-and-play. Using the USB HID protocol means there's no need to install drivers and the device works on all popular OS - Windows, macOS, Linux, Chrome OS and even Android.

You can adjust the sensitivity of the mouse to your preference and have a choice between several options for clicking the mouse. For example free dwell to click, or voice dictation software.

The Feathertail is designed with this in mind. It’s a mouse you can use in a variety of different positions throughout the day, unlike traditional ergonomic mice. This helps the affected tissues rest and changes the biomechanics of the repetitive movements you do.

In particular, having the option of using a mouse you don’t have to hold can be instrumental in recovery from carpal tunnel, de quervain's thumb and other related conditions.

Todays thought: the similarities between the Greenwich Foot Tunnel and the under river gate from Professor Layton Unwound/Lost Future!

[addictedgallery]

Ironic and disappointing 🤔

[bigweldindustries]

also fun London fact: there are so few crossings along the east of the Thames that one of them is (checks notes) literal fuckin cable cars that are part of the public transport network
