summer of knowledge (day one)

im starting a little daily thing this summer called the summer of knowledge where i pick a topic at random and write notes and learn about it 

i decided that i would post them here on tumblr bc i thought that other people might enjoy it IDK 

anyways i was supposed to post this yesterday but i forgor (skull emoji) 

june 1st was cloud types 

clouds are made up of water droplets or ice crystals

there are three levels to clouds, high, mid-level, and low clouds.

high clouds (16,500-45,000 feet)

cirrus

feathery clouds that are made of mostly ice crystals

the wispy shape is from wind currents that twist and spread the ice crystals into strands

cirrostratus

thin, white clouds that cover the sky. usually seen in the winter

meaning: rain or snow soon

cirrocumulus

thin, patchy, sheet-like clouds. sometimes look grainy or full of ripples

meaning: good weather but cold, but if you live in the tropics this could be a sign of an approaching hurricane

mid-level clouds (6,500-23,000 feet)

altocumulus

several patchy white or gray layers. many rows of fluffy ripples

made of liquid water but dont usually produce rain

meaning: weather is fair

altostratus

gray or blue-gray clouds made up of ice crystals and water droplets. usually covers the entire sky

meaning: continuous rain or snow

nimbostratus

dark, gray clouds that seem to fade into falling rain or snow

very thick and blocks out any sunlight

meaning: gloomy with continuous rain or snow

low clouds (less than 6,500 feet)

cumulus

fluffy, white clouds

what most people think of when they think of clouds

weather: fair

stratus

thin, white sheets covering the whole sky

very thin so they dont produce much rain or snow

weather: fair but gloomy

cumulonimbus

what people think of when they think of a storm cloud

grow on hot days when warm, wet air rises very high into the sky

weather: possibility for rain, hail, or tornadoes

stratocumulus

patchy gray or white clouds that sometimes have a honeycomb like appearence

weather: fair weather for now but a storm could be approaching

other special clouds

contrails

made by high flying jet planes

still technically clouds because they are made of water droplets condensed from the water vapor in the exhaust of the jet engines

can tell us about the layers of moisture in the sky

mammatus clouds

actually altocumulus, cirrus, cumulonimbus, or other types of clouds that have these pouch-like shapes hanging out of the bottom

the pouches are made when cold air in the cloud sinks down towards earth

weather: severe weather might be on its way

orographic clouds

get their shape from mountains or hills that force the air to move over or around them

can also be formed by seabreezes and often appear as lines where two air masses meet

weather: afternoon thunderstorms could be a possibility

lenticular clouds

shaped like lenses or almonds

they get their shape from hilly terrain or just the way air is rising over flat terrain

other facts

clouds are named based on their shape and how high they hover in the troposphere

The genera names are all formed from the same five latin terms — cirro, cumulo, strato, nimbo, alto — which are mixed and matched to create names like cumulonimbus, cirrostratus, cirrocumuus…. you get the idea. Learning what each of these Latin roots means is key to keeping your clouds straight:

Cumulo translates to “heaped.” Think puffy, piled, marshmellowy clouds.

Strato translates to “layered.” Clouds with strato in their name are often flat and form a wide layer across the sky.

Nimbo translates to “rain,” and is used for the two clouds that regularly produce rain.

Cirro translates to “curl.” These clouds are sometimes (but not always) curled and are found in the highest layer of the troposphere.

Alto translates to “high.” Confusingly, this doesn’t mean the clouds in the highest part of the atmosphere, just that the cloud is higher relative to others of its type.

there were images but i can't put them on here because that is simply too much work. 

also here are the websites i used

https://blog.nature.org/2020/09/22/whats-that-cloud-your-guide-to-cloudspotting/

 anyways. there is no way in hell i am remembering any of these cloud names but i actually really enjoyed this topic. ive always been fascinated by clouds so i thought it would be fun to learn about ! i think my favorite clouds are the mammatus clouds and, i didn't write about these, but the Kelvin-Helmholtz clouds (they look like waves they are super cool) 

ok ignore any spelling errors, enjoy learning about clouds, love you, goodnight

someone asked for my interpretations of the characters prismo and scarab wouldve made at the end of fionna and cake,

so here we have Sīdus the Fallen star and The Carmine Cavalier (also regarded as Carma (like karma))

im proud of scarabs character name simply cause cavalier used as an adjective can mean someone who doesnt care for others. also really proud of his sickle thing- its like the mandibles of a beetle but it acts like a guiding weapon rather than attacking, so he can just hook people and completely displace their movements but it can also be used for punching like brass knuckles

#adventure time #fionna and cake #prismo the wishmaster #scarab the god auditor #shoutout to the lotus design on scarabs armor/ bug wings #prismo is a wizard/ magic user who is apparently totally human yup #mostly uses a type of cloud magic to get away #its the dynamic where sidus joke flirts cause thats just how he interacts with people but later on hes just like 'oh shit am i fr rn' #prohibitedwish #medieval fantasy au #the carmine cavalier #Sīdus the Fallen star

got a worm nibbling my brain. can someone help me find a piece of obscure media?

webcomic/indie comic from the 2010s. basically a sci-fi short story about a young girl (with red hair?) who was being raised by scientists as part of an experiment. she receives a haircut/has her head shaved, in preparation for her annual brain scan/testing. it is revealed that while her body is human, her "brain" is artificial, made of computer implants throughout her skull and spine. at some point her biological mother (also a scientist on the same campus?) encounters her and is repulsed, viewing her as a machine who has murdered her daughter.

it was very poignant and it bruised my heart and i can NOT find it anywhere

#i thought it was made by the creator of 'O Human Star' for some reason but apparently not? #goddammit goddammit goddammit #'i don't have to write down the title of this piece of media i encountered in my formative years bc i'll always remember it' #*cut to ten years later frantic googling* #fun fact 'a.i.' is now a completely useless search term #google in general is useless #and stuff i read 3+ years ago regularly vanishes from the internet #bookmarks are not enough! if you like indie media--download that shit! buy digital/physical copies while you can #save it to the cloud back it up and organize that shit!!! #keep a list of the stuff you read (organized by date/media type and possibly with keywords if you want it to be useful longterm) #(or a spreadsheet even if you're like me and rabidly consume short stories/comics like a pack of amnesiac piranhas on a feeding frenzy) #(that stuff PILES UP over the years ok. if you wanna make sure you'll be able to find it again a decade later--curation is key) #because art WILL touch your soul and then vanish into the void leaving naught but a 404 Error in its wake #i am an old man shaking my fist at the kids on my lawn but the kids on my lawn are me and my longterm digital planning skills circa 2012
