Zum Schluss wird es dann doch etwas pathetisch, beklagt der Tobi an Charles Chaplins ansonsten reizender Gattinen-Serienmörder-Komödie Monsieur Verdoux. Aber wird es ja irgendwie immer.

Madi: If you bite it and you die, it’s poisonous. If it bites you and you die, it’s venomous.
Tom Phan (Rabbid Phantom): What if it bites me and it dies!?
Big Jack Horner: Then you’re poisonous. Jesus Christ, Tom, learn to listen.
Jervis: What if it bites itself and I die?
Penguin: That’s voodoo.
Sideshow Bob: What if it bites me and someone else dies?
Penguin: That’s correlation, not causation.
Jervis: What if we bite each other, and neither of us die?
Jack Horner: That’s kinky.
Madi: Oh my God.

So I came across @spicymancer's "Rumble after Dark" fighting game OCs and it kind of inspired me to think about a fighting game AU featuring a bunch of my OCs from different universes. (Mine wouldn't be as NSFW but maybe a little never hurt, since it's just for art anyways...)
None of this obviously would be canon but just thinking about the fighting game archetypes as a method of character exploration has been fun. And most of my fighting game experience comes from platform fighters so my archetype knowledge is a little whack but if you'll excuse that then,
My initial castings are these: (Long-ass ramble with multiple OCs and no sketches yet.)
Blanksford Series: -Gabby (Would be a Hit & Run Mix Up character. Using their teleportation and skateboarding to move around in a unique way. Might have a playstyle similar to Bridget Guilty Gear.) -Madi (While she's doesn't have any powers in-universe and wouldn't be much of a fighter on her own, her TTRPG char KyoVee would be a fun ranged zoner character. Definitely a lil shit, think Pac-Man / Pichu from Smash.) -Taylor (Give him a bit of gym time and training and he could be a well-rounded rushdown type of fighter, nothing too gimmicky prob my most standard fighter on the list. To make him more unique he could double as the announcer because that'd be super in character.) -Aeri (Even though she has powers in-universe she avoids conflict at all costs, so instead her TTRPG char (who doesn't have a name yet) would be an excellent grappler. A big orc with an axe. In my head I'm thinking of that scene in Drawtective where Gyorik put the bad guy in arm jail, mixed with Loxodont from Rivals 2.) -Artemis (Might take her off this list as I do sketches but for now she's a ranged zoner. Using her bow to keep distance, might play similar to Green Arrow from Injustice, idk) -Ultra-Dude (Of course I had to feature this dude as a heavy. He'd just be great for it. And it's not like I've been using him in-universe for anything other than that asshole with the strength and healing powers.)
Colostle: -Correll [Pirate Arc] (I think Correll would be a fun mid-range zoner. Using her spear to keep distance and her ice magic as a fun gimmick to make her a bit more unique. -Ivy Reyne (Definitely a fast and fun rushdown character. Like imagine Maypul from Rivals but grounded. She's agile AF and hits harder than you'd expect.) -Gratt & Tic Tac (I thought this would be a fun duo-fighter. Since Aanya's not my own OC I wanted to keep my Colostle reps pre-Tic Tac's death as far as timelines go but Tic alone wouldn't be enough. I didn't want to pair him with Correll cuz I thought that'd be a little hard and honestly the thought of leaving Gratt out felt bad, and with Tic Tac's help they could actually stand a chance.)
Mystic Mysteries: -Emra Corvus (The OG MysMys character. While I haven't focused on her a lot in-universe lately, I think she could be fun here. Using different elemental magic as stances. Like a mix of Robin and Shulk from Smash.) -Tehl (My biggest OC excluding actual gods and monsters. Xe'd easily be a heavy. Probably with a playstyle similar to Sylvanos from Rivals, instead of forest powers though xe'd used alien tech to backup xir playstyle.) -Dawn Ronik (I think she'd be a pretty well-rounded fighter. Again borrowing some of Tehl's alien tech for support but mostly just beign agile and powerful. Nothing too strong in any category but very hard to take advantage of.)
And my random OC to finish it off: -Syble (She was originally design as a rivals workshop character before I realized how much effort making an actual workshop character really was. She'd play kind of similar to Maypul or Shiek but with her own teleportation gimmicks. I've talked about these when I designed her and I think they're still on my tumblr somewhere though you might have to check back a bit to find them.) -pqkR6 (Easily a fighting game character, it'd be a robotic shoto fighter. Agile and able to take hits but also quick enough to get in its own damage.) -Hackphlegm (As a goblin sorcerer, he'd be a fun ranged hit&run/zoner type fighter. Might be too similar to Emra in playstyle would have to differentiate them somehow but other than that he's a solid inclusion.) -Darcy (Not a character I thought I'd bring back but looking at the archetypes I thought I needed more heavies. Darcy's werewolf form would be a grappler who's pretty big and would be weird to design around but fits really well into a fighting game.) -And also I might need one or two new OCs to tie it all together. (Off the top of my head I think one archetype I'm missing is the enby with a scythe archetype. You know characters like Thanatos, Testament, & Sawyer.) -And for another... (I'm also somehow missing a swordie. Like where's my over-inclusion of Fire Emblem characters. Like I have bladed weapons but they're mostly daggers. Gabby's skateboard maybe could be used like a sword but they wouldn't be a "swordie". Again Aanya's not my OC even though she's in my stories so I don't want to use her. Maybe make a few origin changes and my Terrarian could fit this role. Or Drake is an OC I haven't touched since I removed him from Blanksford canon years ago, he might fit here.)

Charles Chaplin and Martha Raye in Monsieur Verdoux (Charles Chaplin, 1947)
Cast: Charles Chaplin, Mady Correll, Allison Roddan, Robert Lewis, Audrey Betz, Martha Raye, Ada May, Isobel Elsom, Marjorie Bennett, Helene Heigh, Margaret Huffman, Marilyn Nash, Irving Bacon. Screenplay: Charles Chaplin, based on an Idea by Orson Welles. Cinematography: Roland Totheroh. Art direction: John Beckman. Film editing: Willard Nico. Music: Charles Chaplin. At the end of Monsieur Verdoux, Charles Chaplin, in the title role, walks away toward his execution by guillotine, just as his Little Tramp character used to walk away toward the horizon in his earlier films. It's a richly ironic moment, not just because Chaplin is parodying the endings of his other movies, but also because it would come to symbolize the beginning of the end of his career. He would make three more films, only one of which, Limelight (1952), would attract an audience (mainly in Europe) and earn some critical respect. Of the other two, A King in New York (1957) was not even released in the United States until 1973, and although The Countess From Hong Kong (1967) did get American distribution, it was generally panned even by critics inclined to favor Chaplin and was a major box office flop. Monsieur Verdoux is a key work in its revelation of Chaplin's strengths and weaknesses. His strengths are still there: He was, when he wanted to be, a very funny actor, and there is one scene -- Verdoux and Annabella (Martha Raye) in a rowboat -- that is among the most hilarious sequences ever filmed. His weaknesses stemmed from his desire to be more than funny: to make statements about the way he saw the world. The ending of The Great Dictator (1940) was marred when he shifted from satire to sermon, and the rather muzzy anticapitalism expressed by Verdoux in the final scenes strikes us today as banal. Unfortunately, in 1947 it struck many as worse than that. In the increasingly heated anticommunist fervor of the day it was at least heresy, at worst treason. Monsieur Verdoux was picketed and banned and eventually withdrawn from circulation in the United States, not to be seen here until 1964. It confused most of the critics in 1947 with its shifts in tone and its rather old-fashioned mise-en-scène and cutting, but it had its defenders, chief among them James Agee, who wrote a long, impassioned multipart essay for The Nation defending the film. "I love and revere the film as deeply as any I have ever seen," Agee wrote, "and believe that it is high among the great works of this century." Not many people would go that far today. Monsieur Verdoux has its longueurs and its unfortunate wanderings into Chaplin's particular brand of sentimentality, especially the wheelchair-bound wife and adorable child. It betrays Chaplin's perennial weakness for the pretty girl in his casting of the wooden Marilyn Nash in what seems to have been intended as a key role but which fizzles because it's awkwardly written and performed. Even the title role is inconsistently written and performed: Chaplin's dapper Verdoux suddenly turns into a slapstick clown and just as suddenly back into the suave and sinister serial killer, undercutting the high-minded pseudo-Shavian irony of his final apologia: "As for being a mass killer, does not the world encourage it? Is it not building weapons of destruction for the sole purpose of mass killing? Has it not blown unsuspecting women and little children to pieces? And done it very scientifically? As a mass killer, I am an amateur by comparison." Monsieur Verdoux feels something like a scene from Act IV in the tragicomedy that was Chaplin's life. If the first three acts were about his rise to success, despite controversy over his personal life and his politics, the fourth act finds his artistic instincts failing him and the controversies forcing him into exile. Only in the fifth act does the adulation that once surrounded him revive.

Lupine Publishers | Computational modelling of plate-fin and tube heat exchanger for heat transfer and pressure drop analysis
Tumblr media
Introduction
The plate-fin and tube heat exchanger are a cross-flow type heat exchanger, which uses plates as fins as indicated in (Figure 1); therefore, the flow external to the tubes is unmixed. Often, it is categorized as a compact heat exchanger to emphasize its relatively high heat transfer surface area to volume ratio. The plate fin and tube heat exchanger is widely used in many industries, including the aerospace industry, for its compactness and low weight. Different types of fin patterns, in addition to the plate, exist, such as louver, convex-louver, and wavy; however, in general, the plate fin tends to be the best in terms of performance and of constructional effectiveness. The tube geometry used in plate fin and tube heat exchangers is either circular or elliptical. The majority of the studies dealing with plate fin and tube heat exchangers have been conducted resorting to experiments. Shepherd [1] analyzed early experimental data for heat transfer of plate fin and circular tube heat exchanger. Later on, Schulemberg [2] extended the analysis to plate fin and elliptical tubes. Kayansayan [3] investigated experimentally the effects of the outer surface geometry on the performance of flat plain fin and circular tube heat exchangers with four-row coils. Jang et al. [4] studied fluid flow and heat transfer over a multi row (1–6 rows) plate-fin and tube heat exchanger both numerically and experimentally. They considered effects of different geometrical parameters such as tube arrangement, tube row numbers and fin pitch (8–12 fins per inch) for the Reynolds number (based on the fin spacing and the frontal velocity) ranging from 60 to 900 and observed an average heat transfer coefficient of staggered arrangement is 15%–27% higher than that of in-lined arrangement, while the pressure drop of staggered configuration is 20%–25% higher than that of in-lined configuration. Wang et al. [5] investigated experimentally heat transfer and pressure drop for plate fin and tube heat exchanger. Beecher et al. [6] reported heat transfer data for twenty wavy geometries. Kays et al. [7] analyzed heat transfer and pressure drop of heat exchanger with louvered fins. Achaichia et al. [8] experimentally studied the heat transfer and pressure drop of tube and louvered fin surfaces; later on the same authors [9] conducted a numerical study for flow in the laminar regime. Webb et al. [10] performed a flow visualization study of the louvered fin geometry with a flat tube. Sahnoun et al. [11] developed an analytical model for predicting air-side heat exchanger performance of louvered fin geometry. Rocha et al. [12] experimentally estimated the overall heat transfer coefficient of plate fin heat exchangers by considering circular and elliptical tubes. Kundu et al. [13] conducted a dimensional optimization for plate fin and tube heat exchangers with equilateral staggered triangular and rectangular pitch. Romero-Mendez et al. [14] used numerical techniques to estimate the effect of spacing between fins on heat transfer and pressure drop for single row fin and tube heat exchanger. Wang et al. [15] experimentally analyzed the effect of tube rows, fin pitch, and tube diameter on heat transfer and pressure drop for plate fin and tube heat exchanger. Wang et al. [16] presented correlations of the Colburn and friction factors for plate fin and tube heat exchangers. Saboya et al. [17] determined the average heat transfer coefficient for plate fin and elliptic tube heat exchangers using the naphthalene sublimation technique. Torikoshi et al. [18] numerically investigated a plain fin and tube heat exchanger. Erek et al. [19] numerically investigated the effect of fin geometry on heat transfer and pressure drop for plate fin and tube heat exchangers, but they used one particular mass flow rate of the flue gas. Abu Madi et al. [20] determined the effect of geometrical parameters of flat and corrugated fins and the results are presented in terms of Colburn and friction factors. The present work is focused on the numerical investigation estimation of heat flow, pressure drop, and temperature and velocity fields for the plate fin and tube heat exchanger with one row tube configuration; the analysis will be focused on the effect of fin spacing, ellipticity and fin height on the numerically predicted parameters.

I’m thinking about that post of WWII planes and how they initially wanted to reinforce where the holes were until someone pointed out that planes that didn’t make it back were the ones they should be studying - where the holes WEREN’T, in the planes that made it back. Thinking about that, and survivor’s guilt. And because I’m me I’m thinking about that post in relation to Black Sails, James Flint, and the ‘pattern’ everyone likes to draw, to who survives and whose stories get told, and what parts of those stories. Anyway how’s everyone’s Friday going.

Note: “Gob” is a slang word for a sailor. This term first showed up in regard to sailors around 1909 and may have come from the word gobble. Reportedly, some people thought that sailors gobbled their food. The term also may come from the word gob, which means to spit, something sailors also reportedly do often.

3G TRIVIA
Tumblr media
The film was dramatized for radio on “The Screen Guild Radio Theatre” on October 9, 1944, also starring Lucille Ball and George Murphy. They rerpised their roles on radio once again for “Old Gold Comedy Theatre” on February 11, 1945. 
Tumblr media
Maureen O'Hara was initially slated for the role played by Lucille Ball.  Ball and O’Hara had done the 1940 film Dance, Girl, Dance together. 
Tumblr media
This film came towards the end of Lucille Ball's RKO days. She had already achieved leading lady status and would only make four more films for RKO before moving to MGM. She couldn’t know that she would one day own the studio with her husband, Desi Arnaz. Interestingly, RKO borrowed George Murphy from MGM for this film. 
Tumblr media
This film's earliest documented telecast took place in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on  Sunday June 3, 1956 over TV station WFBG. That same week, Lucille Ball began filming season six of “I Love Lucy” in Hollywood. 
Tumblr media
In 1971, “The Carol Burnett Show” spoofed the film with “A Gob, a Girl and Her Galoshes".
Tumblr media
The movie was referenced in the Emmy-winning documentary “Lucy and Desi: A Home Movie”.

I love S6's distinction between "living" and "surviving" in correlation with B/C. Murphy's "If we take this deal, we get everything we want. We get to live" + B's "Not Clarke." Russell's "We'll share everything we've learned about surviving" + B's "We do what Clarke would've done. We survive." Bellamy conflates a Clarkeless existence with surviving as opposed to living, which underscores just how profound his loss is. He, the Heart, has lost his true love, and life without love is no life at all
Wow.
Yeah. 
Also, Murphy has Emori, and that’s part of what he’s looking for, to LIVE with her, without fear. Bellamy doesn’t have Clarke, so it’s just surviving for him...but...he has Echo, so it should still be living for him, right? Because if he has the person he’s committed to, the person he wants to live a life with, then he should be able to live anyway, right? And take care of Madi and Abby and their people as Clarke would want them to do.
But instead, he’s just surviving. Like Clarke survived when they left her behind. As she created an imaginary Bellamy in her head who she talked to every day, imagining him there with her.
Oh. When Bellamy thinks Clarke is gone, he mourns alone. They are very clear about that. He comforts Madi, but is alone in his own grief. Compared to what happens when Clarke is grieving her mother. Bellamy rushes to her and she to him, and together, they make her grief bearable. She doesn’t go it alone like Bellamy did, or like she did after MW. They bear it together, because they are soulmates. 
this show, man.

This was originally supposed to be something to get me to draw more new pokémon but I’ve already drawn all of these. (I’ve drawn an Ivysaur from memory which ended up almost exactly like a Bulbasaur.)
But regardless, I had a lot of fun with this one and I’ll probably do it again at some point with some of my other OCs.
