#BattleofJutland #warships #warpedia

Battle of Jutland – Warpedia The Battle of Jutland, fought between the British Royal Navy’s Grand Fleet and the Imperial German Navy’s High Seas Fleet during World War I, remains one of the most significant naval engagements in history. This epic confrontation, which took place from May 31 to June 1, 1916, off the coast of Denmark’s Jutland Peninsula, involved hundreds of warships and thousands…

American Supercarriers: Are They the Next HMS Dreadnought Class

American Supercarriers: Are They the Next HMS Dreadnought Class and with the development of Drone tech will it mean new ways of war

HMS Dreadnought battleship was a revolutionary design at the height of technology when first launched in 1906, which sparked an arms race which partly hurled Europe into the fires of World War I from 1914 to 1918. The big disappointing issue and problem with the Dreadnought class, which heavily influenced battleship designs until the ending of World War II in 1939 and 1945, was favouring large…

Sub-Lieutenant R W K Twinberrow with three Midshipmen aboard HMS Queen Elizabeth (1913), photograph from early 1916 (NMM). The senior sub-lieutenant of a ship was “ex-officio President” of the midshipmen’s mess, and helped keep his rambunctious messmates in line. Geoffrey Penn describes the world of the early 20th century Royal Navy midshipman in Snotty: The Story of the Midshipman:

Life in the gunroom was boisterous and full. Wine bills were limited to a maximum expenditure of 15s. per month and midshipmen under the age of 20 were not allowed to drink spirits, but at the ripe age of 18 a little goes a long way and 15s. could buy quite a lot at duty free prices. Gunroom parties were therefore nothing if not gay and no amount of tight discipline could curb the high spirits of the sort of boy who chose the Navy as a career.

Kimisute main story [１部 ] Part 2

Side: Fantome Iris

[Sharehouse]

Felix: I also want to hear everyone’s opinions. How about it?

Daimon: Lets see… I’m on the same boat as Felix

Jun: m-Me too. Since we’ve finally gotten here, and I know that with going pro there’s gonna be a lot more problems but still…!

Tomoru: In terms of the professional world, we’re only just newcomers after all

Tomoru: In order to be buried under the other visual kei bands, we need focus on the worldbuilding of Fantome Iris, and if possible embellish it more

Koharu: Um so… before we continue there's something I need to address too…

Koharu: Remember how a little while back my job stuff caused you guys to well… more importantly, caused a lot of trouble even to our followers that care alot about us?

Tomoru: Well that was… but we already discussed it before right?

Tomoru: We said that we were going to continue on as we always have

Koharu: Yeah but. After that I did some thinking and well… That it wasn’t good to inconvenience the people around me ‘cause of my own choices

Felix: Koharu…

Koharu: That's why right now, I’m discussing some stuff with my workplace too

Jun: Is that… regarding your shifts?

Koharu: No. Actually, that nursery is run by a company. They were talking about opening a new facility where they leave their child in care on a 24 hour rotation

Koharu: The people at my workplace were asking if it was okay by me, to transfer there

Daimon: Should we take that as good…news..?

Koharu: Yeah. They were talking about hiring people who want to choose their shift times, so if I do move there, it’ll be easier for me to move around and prioritize the band

Felix: Then that becomes similar to me. Since I only continue my French lessons to the students that will continue to learn. 

Tomoru: That sounds great Koharu-san! I really hope it works out

Daimon: Its most important that you find a way to continue what you love without giving up

Koharu: Yeah, thanks. Its not set in stone yet but I just wanted to tell you guys!

Jun: Hah… while everyone’s got their footing I’m still…

Felix: Well you’re always working on Fantome Iris’ music composition right?

Felix: I look forward to what you’ll bring, Jun

Jun: Fe- Felix-san…!

Koharu: …dontcha feel that he’s gonna ask the impossible for the next song? 

Daimon: Definitely 

Tomoru: Jun will be fine. I mean, he’s responded to all of Feli’s impossible requests so far anyways

Koharu: Well that's true

Felix: Apologies to spark a conversation while eating. Lets eat before the food really gets cold

Daimon: True. It seems our drinks are long gone so I’ll bring some more

Tomoru: Oh, I’ll help out too

Koharu: You, dontcha get that you’re the main character today? Now be patient and sit down..!

.

--[Koharu and Daimon leave]--

.

Tomoru: But…

Felix: Tomoru, in regards to our next activities, did you get any orders from the label?

Felix: When I had asked in the past they said that the current way is fine so…

Tomoru: Hm, yeah… there wasn’t anything to note on my end either

Tomoru: The question just now was more because I wanted to personally confirm everyone’s opinions

Tomoru: I got the confirmation that for the live schedule, the current direction I put together was to stay approved that way too

Jun: I knew you could do it but still… such a skillful manager..! Well considering you’ve also been doing something similar to this from a while back Tomoru…

Jun: Then that means that the transfer to Dreadnought wasn’t that bad then?

Tomoru: That's not true at all

Tomoru: Ever since I started working as a manager, I realized that everything I had done up to now was simply an amateur level imitation…

Jun: r-really…?

Felix: It's the same with how the bar for when we were indie and the bar now that we’re pro are different right

Jun: The bar that they expect from us as pros…

--[Koharu comes back]--

.

Koharu: Woah what's this. I told you to eat and yet you’re all still sitting around serious talking?

Daimon: I thought that for the occasion I’d make a little more, it should be almost done

Felix: Ah, our apologies

Felix: Merci beaucoup, Koharu, Daimon

.

[Time passes]

Felix: C'était très bon! The meal was delicious Daimon

Daimon: That's good to hear

Tomoru: At the very least let me help clean up the dishes

Jun: Tomoru… aren’t you too tired…

Tomoru: After eating good food and talking, it feels like my energy’s all restored

Jun: You’re so healthy it burns…!

.

--[Felix’s phone rings]--

.

Felix: hm..? Its my brother, pardon me for a moment

.

--[Felix walks away from the table]--

.

Felix: Bonsoir, whats wrong?

Felix: …oh, so uncle has…  I understand, thanks for relaying this to me

Prush's Top Favourite Ships (Real) (Not Clickbait) (#3 Will Surprise You!)

Hi all, it's been about a whole year since I've made this blog and it's incredible to me how many people have decided to follow me for my shitposting. Hello to everyone! It's about time, I think, to formally reveal my absolute favourite ships, and I think it's going to surprise a lot of people! This isn't really a topic I've spoken about a lot because I don't really believe in ship-shaming, and a lot of these are already popular enough without my input. These are in no particular order and have various degrees of cannon to them, so please enjoy!

HMS Dreadnought: The OG herself. There's no way she could possibly escape my love. Her very creation almost singlehandedly invalidated the rest of the world's navies and resulted in a whole new classification of warship and understanding of naval warfare. She didn't change the game, she entirely upended the table and established a whole new paradigm of naval warfare.

USS Enterprise (CV-6): The Grey Ghost! This is probably the most "normie" of all my favourites and I think she's entrenched in the popular consciousness for good reason. You can't keep a good girl down and this one certainly point-blank refused to be sunk. Her service record is one of the most magnificent in naval history and there's nothing I don't appreciate about it.

USS Johnston (& Taffy 3 as a whole): This is my oddball pick for favourite ship, I think. Johnston was a destroyer with the heart of a capital ship, and I'm not entirely convinced her sinking wasn't just a conversion to submarine warfare.

I'm not usually that much into naval history but these ships are the ones that have really captured my heart ♥

(Happy April Fools!)

Extremely uncharitable and misleading!

Bret Devereaux and Drachinifel agreeing "there's so many unsolved questions in history we need to divert science funding, how else will we know what shade of yellos HMS Victory was painted at Trafalgar????" is sad to see, truly both of them at their worst.

Drach's tweeted in favor of historical preservation nimbyism too so not quite surprising, though he doesn't cope as hard. Wondering if he's independently wealthy? Has mentioned globetrotting engineer father, but also very hard times after graduating college. Assuming the average patreon donor is giving him the mid tier ($7.50 CAD) he's doing quite well just off that alone, and while Bret complains about poverty wage earning adjuncts...

...he's certainly not sharing their hardships!

Maybe there's a sort of lesson here, people who I consider very smart, who I like a lot and make excellent work, also have a deeply misaligned view about their field which really is a hobby and entertainment source in scholarly robes.

As someone at the 99th percentile of liking ancient warfare and dreadnoughts it's obvious the fields deserve less public funding than they receive, but them at the 99.999th percentile miss it.
