On this day 128 years ago, white-blue-red became the national flag of Russian troops by order of the military department
National colours. In the order of the military department of the 9th of May of this year №102 it is announced that the Emperor of the State on the 29th day of April has deigned to declare that the national flag should be the white-blue-red flag in all cases and other flags should not be allowed. With the establishment of the national flag, in our opinion, the combination of colours should be changed: cockades on helmets, caps, caps and hats, as well as in scarves, instead of black-orange-white it must be white-blue-red. The colours of grenadier badges, weathervanes and the colours of sentry boxes, barriers on guardrooms, fortress gates, barriers, flagpoles and drum hoops should be changed in the same way. The colours of cockades and scarves representing the emblem of nationality should, in our opinion, be changed urgently.

This change in the War Office was the result of an imperial command announced at the end of April that year.

In the modern version of Russia’s national history it is believed that the white-blue-red flag was introduced by Tsar Peter the Great more than three centuries ago, but not only no documents confirming this have survived, but there are not even enough old artistic images of such a flag with a reliable provenance. According to the surviving documents, the national flag white-blue-red was in the Russian Empire a little more than 20 years. Before that, the Romanovs used black-orange-white, largely identical to the Habsburg flag.

For example, these colours are clearly visible on the colour image of the Russian imperial yacht Polar Star).

Before that, the white-blue-red flag was used by the colonial Russian-American Company. According to surviving documents, these colours were originally the flag of the first Russian joint-stock company, and not chosen, allegedly, a century earlier by Peter the Great, as is commonly believed in the modern national version of history. Perhaps similarly, the structure of the flag of the colonial British East India Company later became the basis for the national flag of the United States.

Some modern revisionists suggest that the Oldenburg Romanov dynasty abandoned the Habsburg colours in anticipation of the First World War, in which Russia was fighting the Germans. In this case, it is noteworthy that the Russian Provisional Government and the subsequent Russian State) that did not recognise the Brest Peace (i.e. the end of WWI) were also under this white-blue-red flag. And the Soviet Red Army (respectively under the red flag) was formed precisely to fight counter-revolutionary forces under the white-blue-red flag.

It is also noteworthy that in the subsequent Second World War, the Soviet forces remained under the red flag, while the various Russian collaboration forces that collaborated with the Germans were under the white-blue-red flag (Russian Liberation Army, Russian Protective Corps, Sonderdivision Russland, and others). Although some modern Russian monarchists for some reason try to claim that all this never happened.

Thus, according to surviving documents, the white-blue-red flag has been used by the Russian Federation for the longest period of time in the form of the national flag and is still in use today. Noticeably less period of time it was used by the Russian Empire, and also various counter-revolutionary and collaborationist military formations. Well and the longest time in its history this flag was used by the Russian-American Company.

2024.05.21 03:16 pr0jektile Wishlist for some prior military folks after about 50 hours of gameplay

Madfinger Devs:
First off, thank you. This game is scratching an itch for me and some of my prior service buddies that I wasn't sure was ever going to be scratched unless we made it ourselves. So, thank you. I've got about 50 hours of playtime in so far and there are some kinks to work out, but there are overall a ton of great things about this game and we are thoroughly enjoying it thus far. So, the following is a wishlist of sorts that the group of guys I play with have come up with. We are fully aware that this is in Early Access and I expect bugs, imbalance, and issues. This is not a complaint, it's meant to be a mostly constructive criticism, with some wish list sprinkled in that we think would really send this game to the next level for those who are similarly-minded.
Item Interaction
Interacting with items is much harder than it should be. Opening and closing doors, picking things up, it feels like I have to hover around looking for some magical point on the item in order to interact with it. Maybe this is an adjustment in the radius of the pointer, or the interactable sphere of the model itself but this should be just a *little* more forgiving, so that opening and closing doors/windows and picking up items can happen just a little bit faster.
Nameplates
For the love of god. Please add some way to ID friendlies, even if just my own squad besides the map. A name plate, maybe a green dot on the compass, something. I'm all for immersiveness, but it's hard to maintain formation when i can't see who my teammates are half of the time. Even if it's a name plate that only appears when i aim directly at them, something.
Healing
We love that there is more of an emphasis on how one heals than simply using a medkit. However, it seems like this process is a little more arduous than necessary. For instance, the healing of teammates is unfortunately abysmal at the moment. The "Examine" system is fine, but then if I move my mouse even a few pixels, I have to re-examine the teammate before I can "heal" them. Then, I have to have the items out and on my chest rig or in my pockets to use items on a teammate or faction member. This seems a little odd. So, Suggestions for healing:
  1. **Edit** It seems like the medical items are in fact accessible, according to other commenters. I'll continue playing and testing this myself, it just felt like it wasn't working consistently for me. However, sounds like user error here!
  2. **Edit** to clarify improvements for rendering aid to other players: As of now, if I switch into my inventory or move my cursor for any reason, I have to re-examine the casualty in order to administer aid. This wastes precious time when a teammate is bleeding out. I suggest that Once a player examines a casualty, they should not have to examine them again unless they either sustain more injuries, or some appropriate amount of time has passed. Once I know they have a broken arm and GSW to the neck, I don't forget that if I look in my inventory. Please fix this.
  3. When I was in the military, we always harped on using the casualty's own IFAK to render aid first, before dipping into our own. We carry our IFAK so that we are essentially providing the supplies needed for our own first level of care. It would make a lot of sense to when examining the casualty, it also checks to see if any of the necessary medical supplies to treat the casualty's wounds are actually in their own inventory (can be restricted to medical bags affixed to their belt/chest rig) and use those first, before using our own supplies. I cannot tell you how frustrating it is to stop and try to help a random faction mate bleeding in the street only for them to die, and I've wasted my precious bandages and blood packs on them. in PvP, you could maybe loot their body, but in PvE it's a total loss. You can't recover your items and the player is just gone. Applying their own aid first would alleviate a lot of this waste and also give it a little more realistic edge.
  4. We should be able to drag unconscious/coma teammates. If a teammate goes down, we should be able to drag their body back into cover. Maybe limit this to squadmates only, so that there's less of a chance of griefing/trolling but it should be possible to drag a comrade to safety to administer aid, rather than having to kneel in the middle of the road to do so.
A More Dynamic LZ system
What we have currently works on a basic level. It's essentially a bunch of roller coasters that give the player a bird's eye view of the map as they traverse from one point to another. However, this system could use some improvements.
  1. Ability to extend the time a bird is on an LZ. Sometimes things happen, and for the bird to touch down for 10s and take off because you're bandaging after an unexpected contact can be rough. That wait can be 10-15 minutes and in some cases longer. Either A) make the wait time 30s and once all squad members "ready up" the bird can lift off immediately, OR B) the wait time stays +/-10s and squad members on the LZ can "Press Y" to request the bird stays on deck for another 10 seconds.
  2. 4 birds per faction can be extremely frustrating, especially when there are lots of solos and duos. We have to find a way to make more birds available or to better use the 4 that are available:
    1. Simply make more birds available. 1xhelicopter per squad on server.
    2. Make it so that players can "ride back" on birds that are dropping off players. (Yes, this could extend in-flight time for birds in the air, but it could also reduce number of requests). If a bird drops a team off at Charlie 1, and I am there, the bird can show on map Destination: C1 > RTB, and I would know that bird is returning to base after dropping off at Charlie 1. If I hop onto that bird, it flies back to base, if I do not, it can fly off-map to the nearest edge. I think this could easily be implemented and would cut down on a lot of helo requests to LZ's.
    3. Implement a fuel system on the birds. For instance, I'm at Foxtrot 2 and want to go to India 1. If I request to India 1, and there's a bird already en route to an F-2 or a nearby LZ, and it has fuel capacity to get to India 1, it can drop off its team, pick me up and take me to India 1. Once fuel capacity is reached, it flies off-map at nearest edge
    4. Any one of these or hybrid method could reduce the amount of wait times for teams to get birds, and also be more efficient for getting teams to and from locations using the same birds already in play, especially if Patrol Bases or faction Main Bases could be opted as helo refueling options?
  3. Maybe able to purchase an emergency Pickup? It can be expensive ($10K+), but being able to call in a bird to any open, flat area for an emergency pickup would be cool. It would also give us a reason to use the currently pointless smoke grenades.
    1. Emergency Pickup only useable in area that has 30m+ radius of open ground with no trees.
    2. Call in Bird, at 30 seconds out, you have to pop a colored smoke, the bird will confirm color and land on your smoke.
Death Penalty/Loot - Okay, so it is nice that when a player dies, they have an opportunity to return to their corpse and get their loot back. This is a nice touch and has saved me a bit of money and gear over the past couple weeks. However, even in PvE there should be a way for some to loot a dead body. I am thinking of maybe 2 ways to do this:
  1. Now, I say maybe keep the first-death grace period to go back and get your loot, assuming you can make it. However, if you die a second time, that corpse should become lootable. Perhaps, a time limit can be imposed so that there aren't just dead bodies cluttering up the game and wasting resources, but maybe for 2-3 minutes, the corpse becomes lootable to all (or maybe just faction or even squad). This allows for teammates to help pick up the gear one may lose, if they die during PvE, and also provides some scavenging opportunities for others.
  2. After the first PvE death, maybe there is a 15-minute timer to return to the body, where it is not lootable. This gives the player (in most cases) enough time to return to the body if they move quickly, and can protect their gear from opportunists. After 15 minutes, the body becomes lootable for another 5 minutes, for a total of 20 minutes of recovery time, the last 5 of which can be looted by other players. After 20, the body disappears for all. this helps to save resources and adds some scavenging, but also allows for teammates to help pick up the slack. If the player dies a second time before the 15 minutes expires, the 5 minute lootable period begins immediately.
Suppressors, Camouflage, Concealment
Suppressors and camouflage should work on AI. I don't know what system is in place to "alert" AI, but it seems like I get one suppressed shot, then anyone within 50-100m locks on to my precise location, regardless of concealment or camouflage and I come under immediate effective fire, even if I one-shot an unaware AI with a suppressed weapon. As of now, the only reason to spend the money on a suppressor in this game is if I just want my own shots to be quieter for myself and my squad. There's no tactical advantage for the money spent in PvE and the effect is limited in PvP.
  1. Maybe a system that rewards players for taking controlled shots? A suppressed one-shot kill from >100m should only alert AI within immediate proximity. They can alert to the general direction of the player's shot (maybe 90-degree sector) and begin scanning.
  2. Suppressed weapons fired within 50-75m of enemy AI should still alert them, but maybe to a lesser extent than they currently do. Maybe a 60-degree cone of "alerted" status for enemies in this 50-100m range when firing suppressed.
  3. <50m suppressed weapons have no effect.
  4. AI should not be able to see me at 50m+ through dense vegetation. I cannot see them, they should not be able to see me. Sure, if they want to spray an AK into a tree line as suppressing fire, fine. However, they should not be taking point-target shots on me because a 4-pixel by 4-pixel patch of my glove was detected.
AI- We have to talk about this
I don't know why, but it feels like I am constantly on a pendulum swinging between the extremes of AI who couldn't shoot me if their muzzle was pressed into my chest, and AI who are able to nail me in the T-Box through 12-inch thick reinforced concrete.
  1. I don't know the magic middle ground, but having the AI be slightly disoriented when fired upon, maybe taking 1-2 seconds to react and get their bearings would help add a more realistic edge to the gun fights.
  2. AI should behave somewhat tactically. I would love to see some bounding movements, suppressive fire, and flanking. I don't know how to implement, but maybe if there are more 4+ AI in a 20m radius, they get grouped up and become a fireteam. Two of them set a base of fire from some covered position while another two make a flanking maneuver
  3. Clipping is an issue. I've died several times to AI shooting me through the floors and walls in the YBL-1 bunker. Thankfully the gear isn't prohibitively expensive, but it is an annoyance.
Flesh out this world
The island is huge. It's huge and the whole thing can be traversed on foot. It's just that there's really no reason to do so. I'd much rather just ride my helicopter to the LZ closest to my objective, in and out. Get my reward. There's no incentive to walk between points of interest unless we are trying to PvP and want to go largely undetected across the map to our ambush site. Here are some ways to accomplish a more immersive island.
  1. There are no civilians. I know this can be explained away by an evacuation, but that's no fun. There could be civilians in these villages and it could be very engaging. Why am I running boxes of medical supplies out to villages where the only inhabitants are enemy combatants? Add non-combatant civilians.
    1. Make villages have non-combatants. If you kill them, it can cost you a fine and hurt your faction's standing within that village among the civilians.
    2. Civilians, if faction standing becomes too negative with them, will become hostile toward your faction. (kill too many, they arm themselves and fight back). Each faction has its own unique standing with the civilians in that village on the server, so each village can have its own diplomatic stance.
    3. Civilians can function as in-game vendors. Some dude in a market stall may sell fish, or crafting items for features I read were anticipated in later iterations of the game.
    4. If a faction's standing becomes strong enough, civilians may even arm themselves and help to drive out the hostiles occupying the village. Maybe this part is something that becomes a part of a dynamic event later.
    5. Even if they do nothing, it adds a layer of complexity to the missions, and makes it so that players must get Positive ID before taking a shot. In some cases, hostiles can pose as civilians, and pick up a weapon adding an even more immersive element to asymmetric warfare.
  2. Patrol Bases - This can be done in a way that gives players a way to seek refuge and operate out of forward bases. Something like Elder Scrolls Online did the castle/keep system in their PvP where the NPC's in some neutral zones captured by one faction or another would then guard that area on behalf of the faction.
    1. Points of Interest can be captured as patrol bases. This gives another "objective" to players and can encourage more PvP interactions.
    2. Once captured, a patrol base (PB) gets assigned a number of NPC's that will fight hostile NPC's and other factions that come within a pre-determined distance of the PB.
    3. Helicopters can fly in and out of patrol bases owned by that faction. Gives an additional LZ that is less prone to LZ camping.
  3. AI Patrols - Each faction should have some AI patrolling its immediately controlled areas.
    1. Dense presence in the town/area between the main base and starter town for each faction. These can be 4-6 man patrols, moving tactically and in conventional military formations. They can be engaged by players and hostile AI.
    2. Less dense patrols in forward areas. Mostly on roads between points of interest.
      1. Patrol between Crimson Shield base camp and Kiu Vongsa, between KV Gas Station and the ridge west of Hunter's paradise, along the main road, for example. Just 4-6 man patrols that walk the roads and can be engaged.
      2. Similar routes in other faction areas.
Miscellaneous Gear and Feature Wish List
  1. Belt-fed weapons. Please.
    1. This could be game changing for PvE and PvP. They should be expensive. They should be heavy, and they should be more of a cone of fire. They can be powerful, suppressive weapons, balanced by the fact that they aren't meant for accurate point-target system.
    2. This gives squads an opportunity to use more immersive tactics. Setting up bases of fire, support and assault elements, etc..
    3. Should probably limit this to SAW/RPK and other lighter weapon systems
  2. Laser Range Finders and Binoculars
    1. Binoculars for scouting out enemy positions.
    2. Laser Range finders for getting good distance measurements for zeroing weapons
    3. These should have weight, cost money and take up inventory space. Choosing to carry this means leaving something else behind.
  3. Radios - These are a necessity.
    1. Make Radios available for purchase from one of the vendors.
    2. They have multi-channel capabilities. Faction, which is also audible in the command tent at main base. Squad, which can be heard by anyone in your squad with a radio equipped and on the squad frequency.
    3. Maybe make VOIP always on for PVP. If you're communicating, you should be audible. Can reduce range of hearing, but I think this would add a very interesting dynamic to communicating as a team and being weary of possible enemies listening to you.
  4. Mortars. They're already there. Let us use them.
    1. the mortars on our main base can be put into effect and used by the players
    2. Have the radios above allow for calling fire missions. Call up main faction on radio, request fire mission from anyone on base who is listening and willing to use the mortars.
    3. Provide the "mortar team" a position for enemy fire. It can be your position and distance/direction or just a grid location to the enemy. This is where binoculars and Laser Range finders become handy.
    4. Can limit the rounds fired from base to X rounds per minute, to avoid spamming.
    5. Can also limit range. As of now, 81mm mortars can basically engage targets to Ground Zero from each base and the contested points of interest between each main base i.e YBL, Midnight Sapphire and Ban Pa.
    6. Could allow for maybe 60mm mortars with shorter range and less firepower inside of the patrol bases mentioned above, and give fire mission support to squads operating further out or omit that feature and keep
  5. Make smoke grenades do something -right now, they don't have any real reason in the game other than beautifying the main base while waiting for a helicopter.
    1. Allow them to signal incoming birds at an LZ.
    2. Allow grey/white smoke but more dense for providing concealment while moving/retreating in a firefight
    3. Allow them to signal a resupply drop that could potentially be called in later in the game at a forward location. I.e. call for resupply, 15 seconds out, mark Drop zone with colored smoke and the drop occurs within 150m of that smoke.
  6. Mines - I'm hit or miss on this, but I've heard others ask for it
    1. Claymores, PWN, IED, whatever. Some form of anti-personnel mine that can be used to protect avenues of approach, kick off ambushes, or defend sniper hides and machine gun nests (assuming you implement the LMG suggestion above)
  7. Speaking of Command and Signal - Star Clusters and parachutes, please add these.
    1. These could be a great way to signal squad location, objectives, or signal ambush start.
  8. Shared Mission Board.
    1. There should be a way for us to draw on a map, on the objective and have our team see it. Maybe everyone has a tablet that can pull up a mission brief, similar to a Ready or Not or maybe Rainbow Six style satellite imagery. We can draw on it, share it with the team and have us know various rally points, lines of departure, etc within the squad.
  9. Arm bands or helmet covers to help ID squad/Team/Clan
    1. We should have a way to ID our squad. Even if it's just an orange patch on the left sleeve, or something to that effect so that we can quickly see who our friendlies and immediate squad are while on mission or in the field. Since camouflage is customizable, I wouldn't suggest removing a customization feature, but add a way for us to be able to ID one another quickly and tactically.
    2. This can later be used to implement clan regalia, etc..
  10. Ghillie suits.
  11. Expensive, heavy, hot, but make them available.
  12. Maybe add a way to customize them with vegetation, especially once crafting items are released.
These are just a handful of the items we've come up with to add some more immersiveness and depth to the game. Overall, I'm very happy with what's come out so far in Early Access. I hope they continue in the direction they've been going so far.
**EDIT** Thanks to all for the suggestions, comments and feedback to this list. I've updated the medical items to account for the fact that accessing them from outside med bags sounds like my error. Again, this is not a complaint. This is simply a "wish list" a few of us have dreamt up that we think would just add a chef's kiss to the game.
Super happy with current Early Access showing, and this is what EA is all about. Player feedback and interaction during development, so that the final product has a greater chance at success!

2024.05.20 13:55 Tiny-raccoon-55 Things that work for me and things that don’t - SLEEP

Hi fellow insomniacs. Just listing out a few things that worked for me and didn’t. I have been a diagnosed insomniac since 2014.
  1. ❌Every sleep medicine that had been prescribed to me? I developed a resistance to it. Ex- dayvigo, zolpiem, mirtaz
  2. ❌ Tried melatonin as well. Worked a few days and didn’t work on a few.
  3. Lavender ❌
  4. White light therapy in the morning ❌
  5. Dark rooms, blindfold/ sleep mask ❌
Stuff that helped
  1. Blue ray blocking spectacles for screen usage ✅
  2. Melatonin + L theanine at 5 pm daily ✅. There’s this medicine called sleepolax forte ( sleep complex) in India.
  3. Swimming in the evening ( tires you the fuck out) ✅
  4. Cortisol cocktail - basically a blend of coconut water, any citrus ( orange , lemon , lime etc) and sea salt , first thing in the morning. Apparently fixes adrenal fatigue which is related to insomnia. ✅
  5. Dim the lights in your house after 6 pm. Also switch them to warm lights instead of the bright white ones. ✅
Hope this helps !!

2024.05.20 00:41 PhotonGazer Response to the Japanese who are talking crap about Korea. Here is a rant by an educated Japanese ranting about the state of Japan in 2024.

https://twitter.com/JapanTank/status/1789491214968144105
 
[Japan in 2024]
 
It's the year 2024 in Japan, and people are so outbid even for orange juice that they have resorted to desperately making "orange-tangerine mixed juice." Women are traveling abroad to prostitute themselves so much that they are being refused entry into the United States, and even to the point where they are going to South Korea, which was far poorer even just a short time ago, to work as prostitutes. What was once a major trading and exporting nation has long since rested on its laurels, and now with a trade deficit of trillions of yen and nothing to export, it is desperately bowing down to people not only from Europe and the United States, but also from Southeast Asia, India, and even countries whose names we have yet to discover in the tourism industry in order to earn foreign currency.
 
Even though it is a country with extremely low wages, it provides subsidies of hundreds of billions of yen to foreign companies to build factories in the country, and yet young people still go abroad to work. The top tier of universities has been completely snatched up by foreign capital, and graduates from prestigious schools such as the University of Tokyo, Kyoto University, the former imperial universities, Waseda, and Keio are pursuing empty careers in consulting and the like rather than manufacturing, with no prospect of earning foreign currency. The top echelons of the working world are fleeing to America one after another, and once they do, they never come back. In urban areas, Japanese people pay rent for apartments to the Chinese owners every month, and while the Japanese lament that they cannot afford the high prices, the Chinese buy the apartments in cash, calling them cheap. The price of imported building materials has soared and it's difficult to even buy a house, but the company president keeps saying "Don't worry, don't worry!" and people are grateful for the good value for money house, and the company makes the highest profit ever, and the sales of the small house real estate agency that calls out to people in their 30s in street sales in front of the station and has the slogan "Let's go, one trillion" have finally exceeded one trillion.
 
Even though the price of an iPhone in the US dollar has not increased, there is uproar in Japan saying, "It's gotten expensive again!", and almost all mobile communication means, such as smartphones and LINE, are controlled by foreign companies. By preaching some vague, mysterious fantasy and delusion called Society 5.0, they are desperately trying to hide the fact that they have not achieved Industry 4.0, let alone the Third Industrial Revolution, and since neither the government nor the private sector has any IT technology to sell anymore, they are desperately promoting something that is hard to understand, saying how amazing IOWN is, and making it look like they are doing business.
 
This country, which once engaged in empty discussions such as "If there is a labor shortage, we can just bring in immigrants" and "It's better not to bring in immigrants," is now being told, "People go to Korea or Taiwan because the wages are low," and "Wages are higher in urban China," and so it has no choice but to deceive Vietnamese people and create a slave system to secure a labor force. The medical infrastructure, which was once one of the best in the world, has been eaten up by the elderly, and the working generation has been exploited to the point where they have finally reached the limit of what they can pay. As a result, drug prices have been forcibly lowered, and there are now countless foreign-made drugs that Japan is unable to procure, with people saying, "We won't sell to Japan at that low a price." Young people who could be saved with new medicines are not saved, and today, old people still gather happily at the hospital to get compresses, and are given medicine that only slows down dementia by 20-30% at a cost of 3 million yen per person. Elderly people in their 80s and 90s lie in bed, simply prolonging their lives by being bedridden, and their single sons in their 60s come to visit them occasionally, hoping to get their pensions. All of this is being borne by the young working generation, who are short of money and have hit an all-time low in marriage rates and a post-war low in birth rates.
 
The yen, once a currency coveted by people around the world, has become known as the "yen in times of emergency" and is now being sold off at bargain prices almost every day. Now one of the emerging currencies of the Far East, it is experiencing wild fluctuations in value and is managing to hang on by selling off the foreign exchange it had accumulated during its glory days, but it is unclear for how long it will be able to hold on. The country and its people have mistakenly believed that monetary and fiscal policies would solve the problem, put off structural reform, neglected technological development, and simply put everything off. Forgetting the bloody efforts of wise men of the past and the history of the dramatic changes that came with modernization, the old men of companies and organizations that flourished during the Showa era, steeped in old vested interests, are wielding their power, crushing new technologies and ideas, only for the people in question to be dead by the time they get away with it.
 
These young people, like those in the bellies of boiled frogs, are carrying a time bomb, and they vaguely foresee a future in which they will no longer be able to buy beef, flour, soybeans, oil, gas, uranium, or anything else, when foreign currency runs out, leaving society in ruins. But they simply turn a blind eye to this reality, and today, they are sipping mandarin orange juice while a girl looking for a sugar daddy is asked by an older man what color her underwear is.

Visions and dreams

tunnel collapse in India
I dreamt a transit tunnel was being worked on and all of the sudden heard a blast and went to investigate, people were hurt and bleeding and I awoke with a name etched in my mind. I googled the name and he was the supervisor of a project in India that had his crew hurt and some killed by a cave in.? 5 yrs ago The minnesota bridge collapse
I had a dream that cars were moving over the river and I was on the opposite side, looking over to the other side I sawtrain tracks something of an industrial road way and the bridge gave way and traffic was veering off into the river. All of the sudden I was on the other side looking at a grey blue car feeling I had to get to it in order to save someones life. 2 weeks before it happened

electronic device that attaches to the skin via some sort of needle
I closed my eyes while relaxing and saw a device that attaches to the skin that has a needle that goes into the skin. the device was worn on the hand. last month

3 nukes rising from the water of the coast of America
I was helping foreigners into a church bomb shelter and then americans after they were in. I went to the ocean and saw 3 missiles rise from the ocean. several moths ago
Seattle in darkness and flames and chaos
I was in the alcove of a building it was dark and there were fires and riots and people everywhere. Very very dangerous.
portland in civil war and the infrastructure broken and cracked
I had a dream I was down town and people were shooting at each other over broken roadways as if an earth quake had destroyed much of the city, I was trying to get some place and had to have a gun to navigate the chaos. 8 yrs ago
portland overcome by foliage
I saw in a waking vision meaning I was awake and alert , portland overgrown by ivy and plants in the downtown area. what few people that were alive lived peacefully in buildings without electricity. 13 yrs ago

a massive blast in california
I dreamt I was walking through san fran inner communities where people have open door policies like a post hippy inner city commune, and then I was near a large glass tower that was being destroyed by a blast, the heat from the blast melted steel and glass itseemed nuclear. it was massive in force. 7 yrs ago
God smites the people of earth?
Talk about apocolyptic dreams ! I was in a park with some god fearing friends colors were vivid as they could be , clouds were rolling in and suddenly there was a crack of thunder unlike any I had heard before, it went through my conciousness like the voice of a god come to weigh the right and wrong. the sky had a black cloud encircled by white clouds and the hue was golden orange and red like many dreams I have had over the years. In one of those old dreams a line of mankind was as far as the eye could see , the sky was red and people were going where there truths led them.
I visualized hail forming in the heavens the size of a softball or somewhat larger, as it came down it became flames and started destroying people around our group, we made it to the suv which was silver and looked like a toyota and travelled to te slumburbs where outlaws were being sacked by this hail and destroyed.
One had a head dress of antuquity and was consumed in flames but persisted and chased me until I evaded him and returned to the suv. I then awoke.http://students.umf.maine.edu/~gagedl/china_spring04/gifs/theater.gif
if anyone has played diablo 2 the head dress was much like the headress of baal. Seems there are similarites to it around the world. it is representative of a horned god, in sumer ba al or bal. In hindu shiva.

2024.05.19 12:21 LastWeekInCollapse Last Week in Collapse: May 12-18, 2024

Record temperatures, record migration, record emissions, record displacement, record PFAS……start building an ark.
Last Week in Collapse: May 12-18, 2024
This is Last Week in Collapse, a weekly newsletter compiling some of the most important, timely, useful, soul-crushing, ironic, stunning, exhausting, or otherwise must-see/can’t-look-away moments in Collapse.
This is the 125th newsletter! You can find the May 5-11 edition here if you missed it last week. You can also receive these posts (with images) every Sunday in your email inbox with Substack.
——————————
Flash flooding in northern Afghanistan killed 300+ people and destroyed 1,000+ homes. Hundreds of thousands of others have been affected. Last month, similar floods in the region killed 70+. Four died in Texas storms last week as well.
Venezuela is suffering from record wildfires, which so far this year have burned about 5M acres—almost the size of Sardinia. Some experts think indigenous people started the blaze as an attempt at forest clearance, which quickly got out of hand. “Institutional failures” compounded the disaster when the ailing government responded with an inadequate number of poorly equipped firefighters. Another study from last week examined the impact of wildfires on soil health.
Flooding and “cold lava” killed 50+ in Indonesia, injuring dozens and displacing several thousand. Cold lava is a mixture of water and rocks tumbling down the side of a volcano. Meanwhile, an actual volcano erupted in Indonesia, sending smoke & ash 5000m high; further eruptions are possible soon.
The Swiss Re Institute published a 37-page report last week about natural disasters in 2023—and how much damage, in USD, they caused. The largest catastrophe was the February 7.8 earthquake in Türkiye & Syria, which killed 59,000+ people and caused $163B+ in damage. The report is full of interesting graphics & data about natural disasters.
“Last year, economic losses from natural catastrophes reached USD 280 billion, meaning that 62% of the global losses were uninsured….the insured losses surpassed USD 100 billion for the fourth consecutive year….annual insured losses will grow by 5–7% over the long term…today’s insured losses could double in 10 years….There were 142 insured-loss inducing catastrophes in 2023, a new record. Most were of medium severity, which we define as events resulting in losses of USD 1–5 billion….Over the last 30 years, we estimate that natural catastrophe insured losses have grown by 3 percentage points more annually than the global economy (in inflation adjusted terms)...”
Flooding and heat waves are impacting Brazil’s oranges, responsible for about 70% of the world’s supply. One food analysts declared that the “era of cheap food is over”—in the UK, at least. That may be one reason why UK residents took record food bank packages last year. Madagascar is struggling to adapt to a future with far less rainfall.
France is growing more concerned about a dam on Lake Geneva, controlled exclusively by Switzerland. The Rhône River, which begins in Switzerland and flows south through France, is shrinking in summers as climate change melts Switzerland’s remaining glaciers.
The Tonlé San River has been dammed in Vietnam, lowering the level in Cambodia and sometimes drying the river downstream entirely. Meanwhile, China’s lychee harvest is getting blasted by rain, impacting the world’s largest source of lychee. And, once again, Saudi Arabia is suffering flooding in its inland regions. 7 dead in historic flooding in Iran.
The eminent climate scientist James Hansen posted that, since “human-made aerosols and their cooling effect are in decline,” the cooling effect of La Niña will be counterbalanced by these rising temperatures. He also identifies a “large anomaly of increased absorbed solar radiation at midlatitudes in the Northern Hemisphere” responsible for rising temperatures there. CO2 levels are rising faster today than they have at any point in the previous 50,000 years…and a study of millennia-old trees determined last summer was the hottest worldwide in 2,000+ years…
Record nighttime May temperatures were tied in the Philippines and Vietnam. A couple Indonesian cities broke records for May temperatures. And a number of southern African states saw more records drop. And Toronto saw a record tied for the number of days reaching 14 °C (57 °F). A heat wave has returned to Bangladesh. Flooding in Cali (pop: 2.9M), Colombia.
The University of Washington was ordered to stop a geoengineering project that scientists sere conducting from the deck of a decommissioned aircraft carrier. The experiment ejected aerosolized saltwater in an attempt to reflect solar radiation. A comparative study in Nature Communications of a number of carbon pricing found that, yes, carbon pricing does work to reduce the total CO2 emitted.
It’s that time of the year again. Wildfires in Canada grow, some of which are moving towards the tar sands—forcing thousands to evacuate. 39 of the total nation’s blazes are “out of control,” resulting in air quality alerts in the United States. Meanwhile, across the Caribbean, water shortages have become the new normal, and residents (and tourists) are finding their old consumption habits hard to change. St. Lucia has declared a water emergency. In Myanmar, water shortages worsen, particularly as related to the spiraling conflict.
At least ⅛ of Europeans live in a place at risk of extreme flooding—so says a 175-page report from the European Environment Agency posted on Wednesday. The number of people living in flood-risk coastal areas in the EU & UK is expected to jump 24% by 2050. The graphics-packed report also considers how flooding will impact healthcare facilities, mental health, wastewater treatment plants, the spread of disease, cyanobacteria, permafrost thaw, and much else.
“Europe has seen devastating floods following record rainfall, droughts of magnitudes not experienced in hundreds of years, continuing sea level rise, and increasing lake and sea temperatures….permanent water stress already affects 30% of people in southern Europe….since 2018, more than half of Europe has been impacted by extreme drought conditions….Climate change is expected to increase mercury bioaccumulation in the marine food chain due to rising ocean temperatures, ocean acidification and permafrost thawing….Depression, anxiety and PTSD may persist for years after a flooding event….Under the changing climate, northern Europe is becoming wetter in general, but drier in summer. Southern Europe is becoming drier, especially in winter. For central-eastern and western Europe, the trend is less clear…” -selections from the report
Milan suffered flooding last week, the worst May flooding in 170 years. Early spring in the UK has disrupted migratory bird species and their usual patterns.
A 74-page working paper which is not yet peer-reviewed claims that earlier estimates for how much GDP would be impacted by another 1 °C temperature rise is way less than it would be in actuality. The paper claims the real cost (in USD) is about 6x greater. They claim “global temperature has much more pronounced impacts on economic activity than local temperature” and that extreme weather is mostly behind the projected decline in productivity.
——————————
Epidemiologists are worried about how climate change in Africa may extend the life of disease-bearers like ticks and mosquitoes. Other epidemiologists are worried about how cattle may become a permanent reservoir for H5N1. Growing traced of bird flu have been found in wastewater testing in the U.S., but investigators think it may be runoff from infected dairy farms.
Obesity, high blood sugar, and high blood pressure rates today globally are 50% higher than in 2000—though researchers claim that air pollution still poses a larger threat. Of a study participants in Hawai’i, 75% had respiratory issues, probably from the Maui wildfires last year.
The 2024 World Migration Report is out, and its 384 pages are not as apocalyptic as one might think. However, internally displaced people are at their all-time highest. India, Mexico, Russia, China, and Syria lead the world in emigrants; another document contains the definitions for who exactly constitutes a migrant. Unfortunately much of the data relied upon ends in 2022. Data from this year, not included in the above report, indicates a 40% jump in traffic through the Darien Gap compared to the same time period in 2023.
“The last two years saw major migration and displacement events that have caused great hardship and trauma, as well as loss of life….There have also been large-scale displacements triggered by climate- and weather-related disasters in many parts of the world in 2022 and 2023, including in Pakistan, the Philippines, China, India, Bangladesh, Brazil and Colombia….disinformation tactics are increasingly being used by nefarious actors with negative impacts on public, political and social media discourse on migration….Forced displacement is the highest on record in the modern era…overconsumption and overproduction linked to unsustainable economic growth, resource depletion and biodiversity collapse, as well as ongoing climate change (including global heating) are continuing to grip the world….the risk of further conflict has not been higher in decades, as military spending reached a new record high of USD 2,240 billion in 2022…” -excerpts from the introduction
Another report, focusing on internal displacement, came out last week; its 69 pages show a cross-section of about 47M people displaced by natural disasters (56%) or armed conflict (44%). Most of the disasters were storms & flooding, and most of the conflicts were civil wars of some form. This report also provides detailed region-by-region analyses—with sub-Saharan Africa accounting for 46% of global IDPs.
“Conflict and violence triggered 13.5 million movements, the highest figure for the past 15 years….Disasters and conflict are presented as different triggers, but their impacts can overlap, often leading to repeated and/ or protracted displacement….Drought triggered 331,000 displacements in Somalia….Floods triggered 550,000 displacements in Ethiopia….Conflict and violence triggered 3.8 million displacements in DRC in 2023, a slight fall from the record four million in 2022, but still the second-highest figure globally after Sudan….nearly two-thirds of the internal displacements recorded in 2023 originated from Khartoum state. More than 39 per cent of the state's inhabitants were forced to flee, leaving entire neighbourhoods empty….Criminal and communal violence triggered nearly three-quarters of Nigeria's 291,000 conflict displacements….” -selections from the spotlight on sub-Saharan Africa
Experts are concerned about the mental health impacts that climate change has on our minds. Hotter temperatures reportedly increase depression & aggression. Wildfires and storms can cause PTSD. Workers feel stress and desperation as their usual industries are impacted. And air pollution influences ordinary brain processes in many ways.
Some analysts believe “Peak China” may be over, signaling a period of economic tapering-off, as well as a growing militancy. Increasing U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods are continuing to separate the two economies. The Netherlands finally formed a provisional government, though its proposed immigration & farming policies have set it at odds with the EU.
The Federal Reserve, the U.S. central bank, released a 46-page report on potential climate risks to the banking system’s resilience. As far as I understood, most of the risk lies in extreme weather events and the risk to insurance agencies.
Part of southeast England experienced an outbreak of Cryptosporidium, a diarrhea & vomiting illness, highly contagious, which can last weeks. At least 22 cases have been reported. Meanwhile, the CDC is issuing warnings about the more dangerous strain of monkeypox circulating in the DRC, although cases are currently limited to Africa.
North Carolina’s Senate voted to ban mask-wearing last week, under the reasoning that it would make police identification of protestors difficult. An fMRI study found lasting neurological changes in COVID survivors; they “had significantly higher cognitive complaints of mental fatigue and cognitive failure….even two years after recovering.” Experts say a summer rise in COVID cases is coming to the United States.
A study on The Canadian/American Great Lakes found that PFAS levels are increasing in the 3 largest lakes (Superior, Huron, and Michigan), while decreasing in the other two (Erie, Ontario). The study also found that precipitation is the primary means by which the Lakes are accumulating PFAS, since the chemicals are small & stable enough to move through the water cycle. Meanwhile, in England’s Lake District, a telecom failure resulted in raw sewage being pumped into England’s largest and most famous lake, Windermere, on-and-off for 10 hours; and a major British water CEO took a $4M USD pay package last year. And a look into the Chicago River’s health found that microplastics & trash are endangering health & biodiversity.
——————————
An assassination attempt by a lone wolf on Slovakia’s PM left him in critical condition, but likely to survive. 11 civilians were slain by cartel fighters in a few battles in Mexico. Violence continues to spiral out of control in Goma, DRC.
In Haiti, everything worsens indefinitely. Guns have reportedly entered from Florida, a phenomenon which officials call an “iron river.” Police have been put on the defensive against the growing might of the gang warlords.
A brawl broke out in Taiwan’s parliament. An Iranian plot was allegedly foiled to smuggle weapons into Jordan to destabilize the pro-U.S. regime.
Dozens more died in Sudan from escalating violence around Darfur. People are warning about “a disaster on top of a disaster” and the possibility of Sudan splitting apart. Others have called it “hell on earth” as 1,000+ refugees cross the Chad border every day. Disease and malnutrition are growing, while famine encroaches upon 9M helpless victims of the conflict—but the world’s attention is elsewhere.
The U.S. Army Engineers completed constructing the pier in Gaza to deliver humanitarian aid. Some 600,000 Gazans have been displaced from Rafah already, and fighting has escalated against Hamas militants in northern Gaza.
Taliban forces skirmished with Pakistani soldiers for about 90 minutes last week. Taliban attacks in Pakistan, and counterattacks have resulted in a kind of ambient disruption for the rocky border zone.
Violent protests—and counteroperationsare continuing in New Caledonia (pop: 270,000), a Pacific island part of overseas France. The riots, which have killed 6 people so far, began after metropolitan France proposed a plan to expand voting rights beyond indigenous residents. A state of emergency has been declared amid worries about a spiral of violence taking hold.
As the Sahel dries out, experts are concerned about the links to rising terrorism in the region. The Sahel accounts for over 40% of global terrorism deaths—according to the analysts’ understanding of “terrorism.” Mali in particular has reportedly become home to 41 new, different non-state armed groups (NSAGs) since 2007. A contested election in Chad resulted in the consolidation of the interim leader’s power.
“If governments are continually unable to solve regional issues, the people will be at the whim of any terror group that has a basic organization. It serves these groups’ interests to promote insecurity where they can and create security where they want. A “hearts and minds” campaign in the Sahel could lead to long-term and locally supported insurgencies in a land that is currently rife with civil strife.” -from the article
Some wargamers concluded that a Trump victory in 2020 would spell the end of NATO, or at least the end of its utility. Vladimir Putin replaced his minister of defense with a top economic advisor, just before going to Beijing to reaffirm their friendship with “no limits.” Some say Putin is planning on a forever war. Some say NATO is gearing up for one, too.
Russia made several gains in the suburbs of Kharkiv, seizing several settlements which some analysts doubt they will hold. Putin claims they aren’t really trying to take Kharkiv anyway… Russia also made small progress in the Donbas—although they suffered their largest one-day casualties since the start of the war. The U.S. allocated another $2B to hasten the delivery of weapons to the front lines. The next weeks will be crucial on the front. Switzerland has invited 160+ nations to send delegates to a peace summit intended to design a path to making peace in this War.
——————————
Select comments/threads from the subreddit last week suggest:
-Brazil’s flooding was really, really bad, judging from this post and its accompanying images. Across just one of Brazil’s 26 states, 600,000+ people have been made homeless, 100+ have died, and the storm season isn’t over yet. Some of the flooding isn’t expected to subside for another month.
-How specifically might climate change make humanity extinct? This thread crowdsources a number of plausible ways, from ordinary famines to nuclear war and even a massive deoxygenation process. I tend to think it will be a consequence of an eventual nuclear exchange, followed by extended famine and disease.

2024.05.18 21:34 Michtrk 1946-1952 The Rest of the World

JAPAN
12 April 1946 – surrender of Japan, brief premiership of Naruhiko Higashikuni (14 April to 9 June 1946), followed by Kijūrō Shidehara. Occupation mostly carried by US troops, but also Commonwealth zone (UK, Australia, Canada and New Zealand), led by Douglas MacArthur as the SCAP (Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers)
Situation is even way worse than in our reality thanks to all the destruction. First effort is gíve relief to the starving population. Even greater than in our reality are efforts to remove Hirohito (and it is impossible to imagine for the most of Allied leaders including Truman and Churchill to keep him on the throne after this brutal invasion), and despite opposition of MacArthur, Allies force the emperor to abdicate (and renounce divine status) in favour of regency headed by Takahito, (27 July 1946), when Akihito comes to age, he would become the Emperor. Hirohito’s abdication marks the beginning of Seika era, era of Emperor Akihito.
Hirohito is still given all possible protections against any trials for war crimes by MacArthur and is basically sent to comfortable retirement. Institution of monarchy is protected by Allies. Through 1946-1947 many westernisation reforms by MacArthur, based largely on FDR’s New Deal, as in our reality. April-May, political prisoners were released, and Communist Party of Japan was legalised and became politically active organising strikes. 10 February 1947 the first election with women suffrage, victory of Democratic Liberal Party headed by war criminal Hatoyama, who was eventually purged by Allied administration, so Shigeru Yoshida became new prime minister (22 March 1947).
By mid-1947 many officials connected to war crimes were purged, however since then, the course was reversed due to American need for the creation of a powerful Ally against the USSR and many regained power or at least avoided persecution. Through 1947 Americans wrote a new Japanese constitution (later in American myths it was MacArthur completely by himself), 3 August 1947 it was presented. Major shift from our reality is that Article 9, although considered, is not included in such sense as in our reality, it states only that “Aspiring sincerely to an international peace based on justice and order, the Japanese people forever renounce war as a sovereign right of the nation and the threat or use of force as means of settling international disputes” second part about demilitarisation is missing. Since summer 1947, US authorities adopt “Reverse Course” policies - aforementioned rehabilitation of officials, also protection of Zaibatsu (which Americans originally wanted to break-up and weaken), and reconstruction. Tokyo Trials 26 September 1946 to 12 January 1950 – MacArthur’s cover up of Japanese war crimes to a lesser extent, but it still does happen (including Unit 731). Taft also, like in Germany, attacks trials as “victor's justice”. From 25 December to 31 1950 Khabarovsk war crimes trials in the USSR about war criminals from Manchuria.
Persecution of growing Japanese communist movement starts. 1948-1951 “Red Purge”. Since March 1949 Dodge Line plan of right-wing economic reforms (cutting public spending, limiting public consumption, and reorienting industrial production in favour of export-oriented), also increase in unemployment and law against unions passed. In 1949 conflicts between communists and authorities escalated into many strikes, pro-communist politicians and officials began to be fired, after summer strike waves also purges of workers and academics. 1 July 1949 Japanese Self-Defence forces established – official remilitarisation. 23 October 1949 election, victory of DLP, electoral success of communists.
Peace Treaty with Japan
President Taft was eager to restore Japanese Independence – SCAP already transferred large amount of authority to Japanese trough 1949, secretary of the state William Richards Castle Jr took initiative. Despite Taft’s initial opposition to idea of continuous military presence, he is persuaded to keep limited number of stationed troops. Peace Treaty with Japan was scheduled after Treaty with Germany. Talks began in August 1950, however talks collapsed over China, despite at the time everyone recognised KMT, Soviets wanted PRC representatives to also attend. Other negotiations were called for January 1951, which resulted into calling for a Peace Conference with Japan in San Francisco analogous to the previous one with Germany. 6 March to 8 August 1951 San Francisco Conference, USSR and its allies boycotted them due to not including Chinese representatives. Despite Chinese and Soviets not being present, their interests were considered. Taiwan was ceded to China, Sakhalin, and Kuril Islands to USSR, unlike OTL Okinawa and more territories were already given back to Japan. Treaty was signed 8 August 1951, valid since 8 March 1952. Separate peace treaties were signed between Japan and ROC (30 January 1953), the Soviet Union and Korea “Vladivostok Treaties” 28 April 1952, these treaties recognised Soviet control over former Japanese territories and entitled Japan to pay reparations to Korea.
8 September 1951 U.S.-Japan Security Treaty was signed, which dictated Japan to accept continuous American military presence. This treaty caused a wave of resistance in Japan, uniting Japanese from right to left. Bloody May Day – over a million protestors in all of Japan, in Tokyo these protests escalated into violence and protests were massacred by police. 1 October 1952 election victory of Yoshida’s Liberal Party. 10 November 1952 coronation ceremony of Emperor Akihito, it marks symbolic beginning of new post-war Japan.
Philippines – 4 July 1947 United States gave official independence to Philippines and retained there many military bases (agreement from 1946 establishes bases for 99 years!) and the US still keeps a degree of political and economic dominance. 28 June 1946 Manuel Roxas became president of Philippines (still under US control then), communists were expelled from Congress despite being democratically elected – Hukbalahap Rebellion resumes (June 1946) and gained substantial strength, United States interferes and supports the government. On 15 April 1948 Roxas died of a heart attack; he was succeeded by vice-president Elpidio Quirino (re-elected in a fraudulent election 8 November 1949). Since the Taft Presidency, interests of Americans in Philippine affairs decreased, aid against Huks drained. President Quirino initiated major social reforms during his second term and attempted mostly useful land reform. 1950-1951 Huks successfully boosted their strength with seizing and keeping control over the centre of Laguna province – Santa Cruz. In 1952 Huks controlled sizable parts of the country and due to government corruption and brutality against rebels had also popular support. In 1951 they started to obtain massive support from China (from 1948 they were also backed by Korea).
Indonesia
Independence
As Japan surrendered, two days later on 14 April 1946 Indonesia (then with its majority under Japanese control) Indonesia declared independence, Sukarno became president and Hatta vice-president. Indonesians took advantage of the lack of established authority. Indonesia was occupied by Commonwealth forces (started in late May 1946). 27 June to 20 July 1946 a large battle between Indonesian and British forces – Battle of Surabaya, under significant losses results into a British victory. Churchill wanted to restore Dutch colonial rule and was ready to back them.
Important is Dutch reaction, Dutch government at the time was coalition between all parties formed after liberation by the Red Army in September 1945 (in wikibox there is 1946, another mistake overlook until I needed that), all parties with exception of CPN supported re-conquest of Indonesia, while communists wanted to grand them independence. CPN is vigorously opposed to continued colonisation and due to CPN securing second place in 1946 election and to lesser degree Soviet pressure on Dutch to recognise Indonesia, talks began in February 1947. Coincidentally with the December 1946 election there was a Malino Conference in which representatives of Dutch controlled territory backed the plan for creation of Dutch aligned federal states. 15 February 1947 Linggadjati Round Table Agreement is signed, in which Netherlands recognises Indonesian Republic controlled territory and both sides agree on formation of the Federal Republic of Indonesia (Republic, East Indonesia and Kalimantan) by 1 January 1948, FRI would newly formed Netherlands-Indonesian Union with the Dutch monarch as head. Similar agreement was reached in our reality but failed. In this timeline everything goes through, despite the fall of the Dutch coalition in summer 1947.
Federation
First Indonesian prime minister under Sutan Sjahrir (April to 3 December 1946), replaced by Amir Sjarifuddin, his cabinet included leftist forces, eventually even communists, who were instrumental in making agreement with the Netherlands (as part of the Dutch coalition were also communist negotiators). This cabinet stayed in power, avoiding real life events of the Madiun Affair. New government headed by Mohammad Hatta was formed after the creation of the federal republic. Creation of this republic was met with criticism from Islamists, who launched the Darul Islam rebellion led by Sekarmadji Maridjan Kartosoewirjo (7 August 1948). Overall, young Indonesia was a very unstable country. Anti-unitary forces attempted a failed coup in January 1950. Federation was not popular among Indonesians, so it was quickly dissolved and replaced with a unitary republic (14 April 1950). The Republic of South Maluku attempted to break away with Dutch support, however failed to do so.
Liberal Democratic Period (to 1952)
Newly declared Indonesian republic adopted its constitution and became a free parliamentary democracy. First government was a leftwing one again under Sjarifuddin, however eventually collapsed due to Indonesian National Party (12 October 1950, replaced by cabinet of Mohammad Natsir), but this government managed to pass electoral law, so first Indonesian legislative elections were held (29 September 1951), lot of parties ran and get seats – four largest were PNI (left wing nationalism), Masyumi (liberal Islamism), Nahdlatul Ulama (Islamism), PKI (communists) and PSI- Parsi (democratic socialism). Result was a right leaning coalition under Sidik Djojosukarto (PNI- Masyumi and several minor parties), in 1952 Indonesia officially left “Union” with Netherlands.
British Malaya
1 November 1946 British colonies were united into the “Malayan Union”, strengthening and centralising British control, stripping local sultans of their powers. This created another opposition movement under nationalist United Malays National Organisation, they applied massive resistance and did not participate in British institutions. Unlike OTL, during the Churchill years, there was no reform. In 1952 (1 February) it was transformed due to this massive and long resistance (and also due to large scale communist uprising) to Federation of Malaya, attempting to appease at least conservative nationalists.
Anti–British National Liberation War (early years)
Postwar economic turmoil, powerful communist organisation, brutal response of colonial authorities to strikers. Malaya was a key British source of resources, to pay for US debts (even way more rising in importance after Taft). 17 June 1948 Sungai Siput incident – revenge killing of plantation managers lead to massive British anti-communist arrests, and communists went into hiding. Also, the uprising in Burma (1947) also plays a role as another new motivation. February 1949 Malayan National Liberation Army under Chin Peng is formed (reformed from anti-Japanese resistance movement), MNLA has support of the population and is based in jungles and areas very hard to access for colonialists. Britain imposes very harsh repression against the population, leading to even more widespread support for MNLA. April 1950 “Briggs Plan” adopted forced deportations of ethnic Chinese to camps (up to half million people). The UK also uses Agent Orange (as the first country in the World), murders and tortures countless civilians, and destroys villages.
6 October 1951 British High Commissioner Henry Gurney survives MNLA ambush, this is actually damaging to the British as his replacement Gerald Templer was more competent in fighting with partisans. British forces are aided by other commonwealth nations. By 1953 the UK had problems dealing with communists and communists were stronger compared to our reality.
British Sarawak, North Borneo, Brunei
These territories were separated from Malaya in 1946. This was opposed by Malays but supported by the Chinese. Resistance by Malays culminated in assassination of Duncan Stewart. Small communist rebellion also started.
Thailand – After the war in June 1946 king Ananda Mahidol (Rama VIII) returned back to Thailand, however, was found shot dead on 26 March 1947 his death was blamed on prime minister Pridi Banomyong, who was forced to resign being replaced by Luang Thamrong.
In 1946 Thailand had to return territories to France. The 20 October 1946 election resulted in the victory of the People's Party, the first government was formed by Khuang Aphaiwong, he was however replaced by Pridi Banomyong after a lost vote of confidence (6 January 1947). Pridi was supportive of Vietnamese Independence, so he ended up being overthrown in a US backed coup (8 November 1947), this coup brough Plaek Pibulsonggram back to power. Military allied with royalists and Khuang Aphaiwong was appointed prime minister. New constitution gave back powers to Monarchythat were decreased in the 1932 revolution. To counter the power of royalist military and Pridi allied supporters, another coup was carried out on 6 April 1948, fully returning Plaek to power; he eventually secured power and foced Pridi into exile. Plaek attempted to fully secure power and destroy opposition, but due to lack of US support since 1949, he was eventually ousted by Pridi and his supporters (11 February 1949). New Direk Jayanama-led left-wing democratic government, managed to secure limited support of USSR and larger one of China (but also Britain due to their previous alliance with Allies) and tried to adopt non alignment foreign political stance. Internal political reforms – reduced power of monarchy, new legislature (in June 1950 democratic election), thanks popular policy of land reform government gained widespread support from the rural population. 29 November 1951 anti-Pridi parts of the military attempted a coup against him as returned from exile Plaek Phibunsongkhram, but eventually failed and Plaek was banished. In 1952 the government turned against conservative royalists and attempted to even further weaken the monarchy.
Vietnam
March Revolution 16 March to 15 April, Abdication of Emperor Bảo Đại (already before surrender of Japan because of fears of French invasion) -> creation of Vietnamese Democratic Republic. In late April North Vietnam was occupied by Chinese forces to accept the surrender of the Japanese. In March also general Leclerc arrives. Fontainebleau Agreements in mid-1946 between Vietnam and France, Vietnam as part of the French Union. With the return of France (November 1946) fighting erupted, war erupted in March 1947. By October France took over main population centres.To increase French support, State of Vietnam was created under emperor Bao Dai (2 August 1949) In 1950 Vietnam recognised by the soviet bloc. Same year the UK recognised the State of Vietnam. In late 1950 Viet Minh launched a successful offensive. In January 1951 de Tassigny was appointed to command, under his leadership France had limited military success. Hower financing the war became a major problem around this time. In March 1951 Viet Minh won in the crucial battle of Vĩnh Yên (17 March) and Viet Minh got close to Hanoi, but the French eventually managed to hold the city after heavy losses.
Change came in 1952 from Paris, talks started in February and eventually ceasefire was declared (28 February). Paris Conference – France officially recognised Democratic Republic of Vietnam, State of Vietnam was not invited as France and DRV both agreed that it was French colony (this was heavily criticised). End of war was also connected with referendum about future of Vietnam, if people support State of Vietnam in union with France or DRV. Referendum was held 14 June 1952 and resulted into landslide victory for Vietminh. Emperor abdicates and State of Vietnam dissolves, but some members of its military continue to resist DRV.
Newly independent Vietnam became a key ally for all of the socialist bloc in Asia and supported anti-colonial movements. In 1952 land reform began – often turned violent with execution of landlords. In 1953 the first five-year plan was launched, focusing on developing the country.
Laos – After the defeat of Japanese anti-colonial Lao Issara emerged. Lao monarch king Sisavang Vong however agreed with restoration of the French protectorate, Lao Issara with aid from China and Viet Minh attempted to resist re-imposition of French rule, however movement was weak and failed to do so and eventually dissolved itself in 1949. In January 1947 an agreement was signed that pledged France to give Laos autonomy inside the French Union. 1950 – Pathet Lao is formed and joins Viet Minh against French forces. In 1952 French officially withdrew from the country.
Cambodia – In 1946 king Norodom Sihanouk attempted to negotiate independence with the French, December 1946 election was held that resulted in victory of the left-wing Democratic party over conservative Liberal party. 23 October 1947 Democratic party dominated assembly passed a constitution modelled on the French one. After the death of Democratic party founder Sisowath Yuthevong, the party divided itself and cannot agree on a concrete program. In 1948 Cambodia was given autonomy by the French. After independence in April 1952, Democratic Party was largely boosted by this success. This avoided the fall of parliamentary democracy.
Ceylon (Sri Lanka)– Sri Lankan leaders led by Don Stephen Senanayake attempted to reach independence through negotiations. However, negotiations with secretary of colonies Oliver Stanley led only to self-governance and the British initially rejected granting Ceylon status of dominion. On 24 September 1947 Senanayake became the first prime minister of the newly formed Ceylonese government. In 1948 granting Dominion status to India led to demonstrations in Ceylon, Senanayake increased his pressure towards Britain. Eventually Ceylon was given the same status as India and Pakistan 4 February 1949. The Senanayake family had a lot of power, after the death of Senanayake (26 March 1952) his son Dudley was chosen by the British governor.
OCEANIA AND AMERICAS (Basically restating history with occasional minor changes, brief)
Australia – 5 July 1945 death of prime minister John Curtin, he was succeeded by Frank Forde until Labour elected Ben Chifley as its new leader. 28 October 1946 Labour government was re-elected against the emerging Liberal Party. His government was characterised by successful Keynesian social democratic politics, similar to later Attlee in UK, (social welfare, universal healthcare – in real life modelled after British one, this timeline it is vice versa, ie. The Chifley government serves as an example for Attlee elected in 1951) starting Australian postwar economic growth. Australia also supports migration to increase its population (Europeans due to the still existing “White Australia” policy). Left-wing policies, such as nationalisations, created opposition from capitalists and their conservative affiliates in politics and media. Criticism also comes from the left due to the government's anti-communism and breaking of strikes. 10 December 1949 Liberal prime minister Robert Menzies was elected. Anti-communism, in 1950 Communist party was banned, it was ruled unconstitutional. 28 April 1951 a new election, triggered the failure of the banking bill, still a victory for Liberals, however they weakened themselves with this move. In 1951 Menzies declared a referendum about banning communist parties and this timeline people agreed, leading to persecution of many communists, it was criticised as a major attack on freedom of political expression. Red Scare was similar to the US at the time, but pushed by Menzies' government. Liberal economic policies, this time taking inspiration from Taft.
New Zealand – 27 November 1946 election, victory of ruling Labour Party, Labour declined and lost popularity due to continuous post-war rationing and Fraser’s support for compulsory military service. 30 November 1949 National Party led by Sidney Holland was elected.

Conflict with Unions, culminating into the waterfront dispute of 1951, the government responded harshly against workers with strong anti-union legislation, even outright criminalising support for them. 11 July 1951 the government was re-elected and gained more seats as a large part of the public supported their stance against workers, due to widespread anti-communism.

Canada – economic boom, social welfare Keynesian economic policies. 20 May 1946 first postwar election, victory of Liberals, however failed to obtain majority and had to rely on leftwing Co-operative Commonwealth, resulting in Canada building the strongest welfare state from Commonwealth states and becoming the most progressive one (and also becoming a major destination for European immigrants). On 15 November 1948 King retired and was succeeded by Louis St. Laurent, a French Canadian strongly opposed to communism. Due to this anti-communist however the ruling coalition collapsed, triggering snap election on 27 June 1949, which resulted in victory of Liberals, who yet again could form government without making coalitions. Shortly before the election, 31 March 1949 Canada united with NewFoundland. Canada took an important role while the US was absent in TATO.
Mexico – 1 December 1946 Miguel Alemán Valdés became president. Pro-business policies and industrialisation, development of infrastructure (dubbed Mexican miracle), however also corruption and elitism. Pro-American foreign policy. 1 December 1952 he was succeeded by Adolfo Ruiz Cortines, he was popular due to his strong stance against corruption and rapid economic development.
Guatemala – In 1944 the country was ruled by dictator Jorge Ubico, who was overthrown by a junta that was overthrown in a popular revolution (20 October 1944), 15 March 1945 Juan José Arévalo became the country's first democratically elected president, who introduced many reforms. He developed the political ideology of Arevalismo "spiritual socialism" -it can be considered a form of democratic socialism. 12 November 1950 Jacobo Árbenz was elected president, he continued the policies of Arévalo and was even more ambitious with his democratic socialist reforms. Largest one was Land Reform (17 June 1952) which greatly benefited hundred of thousands poor Guatemalan people especially indigenous ones, however made very angry American United Fruit Company that controlled majority of land and basically country itself, UFC began to lobby for his overthrown...

On 9 November 1949 Liberal opposition attempted to impeach president Ospina Pérez, he dissolved Congress, creating a presidential dictatorship. Liberal leaders launched an uprising in rural areas (originally it was intended to be a military coup, that however in real life did not take place and here took place and failed). 7 August 1950 new Conservative dictatorial president Laureano Gómez Castro, admirer of Franco, suffered a major heart attack and power was transferred to Roberto Urdaneta Arbeláez in 1951.
Venezuela – 18 October 1945 military coup that brought democracy to Venezuela (October 1946 and December 1947 democratic elections) under president Rómulo Betancourt. The 1940s economy also boomed thanks to oil.

Ecuador – President José María Velasco Ibarra was ousted in military coup (23 August 1947), 1947-1948 unstable country was ruled by military Carlos Mancheno Cajas, eventually military gave power to former vice-president Mariano Suárez Veintimilla, who gave his powers to Congress that elected Carlos Julio Arosemena Tola (31 August 1947). His presidency was strongly allied with the United States. 1 September 1948 Galo Plaza, another strongly pro-American figure, became the next president. He supported technocratic approach, democracy and was very open to foreign (mostly American) influence, exporting bananas to America. 1 June 1952 José María Velasco Ibarra (former deposed president, established politician and Ecuadorian nationalist) won election and became president for third term, his term was stable and brought progress, mostly in great development of infrastructure.

2024.05.18 14:34 Animals_Life_Style The Roofed Turtle A Fascinating Freshwater Resident

The Roofed Turtle A Fascinating Freshwater Resident
The roofed turtle (Pangshura tecta) is a captivating species of freshwater turtle native to the Indian subcontinent. With its unique appearance and specific dietary preferences, it has intrigued both researchers and enthusiasts alike. This blog will delve into the distinctive features, habitat, diet, and conservation status of this remarkable reptile.
Appearance:
The roofed turtle is easily identifiable by its distinctive carapace, which is typically dark brown or black with lighter yellow or orange markings. The carapace, or upper shell, is slightly elongated and domed, often with a noticeable keel running down the middle. One of the most striking features is the presence of a raised ridge, or "roof," along the vertebral scutes, giving the turtle its name.The plastron (the lower shell) is lighter in color, usually yellowish with black blotches. The head of the roofed turtle is relatively small with a pointed snout and a pair of distinctive yellow or orange stripes running from the eyes to the neck. Males are generally smaller than females, with the latter having a more rounded and larger carapace.
Habitat:
Roofed turtles are predominantly found in the slow-moving rivers, ponds, and lakes of India, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Pakistan. They prefer habitats with ample vegetation, both for cover and for feeding purposes. These turtles are adept swimmers and can often be seen basking on logs or rocks near the water’s edge.
Diet:
The diet of the roofed turtle is omnivorous, consisting of a variety of plant and animal matter. In the wild, they feed on aquatic vegetation, algae, fruits, and seeds. They also consume small invertebrates such as insects, mollusks, and crustaceans. This varied diet helps them to thrive in diverse environments and maintain a balanced nutrition.In captivity, roofed turtles can be fed a combination of commercial turtle pellets, leafy greens (like lettuce and spinach), fruits (such as apples and berries), and protein sources (like earthworms and cooked chicken). It's essential to provide a varied diet to mimic their natural feeding habits and ensure their health and wellbeing.Conservation StatusThe roofed turtle is currently listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, but it faces threats from habitat destruction, pollution, and illegal pet trade. The degradation of their natural habitats due to agricultural expansion, dam construction, and urban development poses significant risks to their populations. Conservation efforts are crucial to protect these turtles and their habitats.Interesting FactsBehavior: Roofed turtles are known for their basking behavior, often seen sunning themselves to regulate their body temperature and absorb necessary UV rays for calcium metabolism.
Reproduction:
Females lay eggs in sandy banks or soft soil near water bodies. They can lay multiple clutches of eggs per year, with each clutch containing 4 to 8 eggs.Longevity: These turtles have a long lifespan, often living up to 20-30 years in the wild, and even longer in captivity with proper care.
Conclusion:
The roofed turtle is a remarkable species that showcases the incredible diversity of freshwater turtles. Its unique appearance, dietary habits, and the challenges it faces highlight the importance of conservation efforts. By understanding and protecting these turtles, we can help ensure that they continue to thrive in their natural habitats for generations to come.Whether you are a seasoned herpetologist or a curious nature enthusiast, the roofed turtle offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of freshwater reptiles. Their presence in our ecosystems is a testament to the rich biodiversity that needs our protection and respect.

2024.05.18 11:52 Grand_Reanimation Chapter 2: You and them

Chapter 2: You and them
"Good morning students of Kolar. My name is Vishva Pratap Raghavan but you may know me as the… 'President of India'".
The entire class is flabbergasted. Why is the president giving us an informational message? What is the meaning of this?
After realizing the true importance of this message everyone proceeded to give their absolute attention to the video hearing everything the literal PRESIDENT of the country had to say.
Mr. President took a sip of water and began to speak: "I won't waste any time on more formalities and I'll get straight to the point. Officially our war against Pakistan may already be over, but the danger has truly not vanished yet.
Hearing this the students are perplexed. Gossip arose amongst them…
President continues spontaneously: "High Nixtom City is among the biggest cities in India, and it holds the greatest school in this nation; the same school you students study at."
The video changes settings, it switches to graphic visuals of HS Kolar being at the top of the list among many criteria and leaderboards; These graphics ranged from photos and newspapers about the achievements of HS Kolar's school's unique education system, and leaderboard statistics showing the fact that a majority of Indian top scorers come out of HS Kolar. While these graphics are shown the president doesn't stop speaking and his voiceover continues alongside the graphics.
"That's not all though, this school holds students with the highest potential from all over India and even the whole world. So, it's safe to say that you kids are the true future of this nation's development, and the 'enemy' knows this." ...
The screen suddenly turned black as the president finished his sentence. Gossip amongst students continued spontaneously: "What is sir president talking about? Is he really serious?" "Why is such critical information being revealed to us?" "Could our city really be in that much danger? And if it is, what are WE supposed to do about it?". After a few seconds, a slow transition brings the scene back to the president's residence and the president continues: "Not being subtle I can tell you, my brethren, that the end of the Rakvill War against Pakistan was …. 'Abrupt'. No side came to a definite conclusion. Because of this the 'enemy' might be dissatisfied… They may even try to reignite the inferno of war.
The scene cuts to a video recording of a building being lit on fire with some soldiers equipped with guns randomly running around. President's voiceover continues: "As you can see, we are already starting to see some attacks from anonymous organizations. Pakistan has pleaded ignorance and claimed that they have no involvement in these attacks, that's hard to believe but for diplomatic reasons, we have to accept it..."
The scene cuts back to the president.
"...that, and all the factors such as; the importance of this school and the city, and the location being close to the border…" The scene cuts to show an aerial view of HS Kolar. "...Make this school the prime target for a terrorist invasion."
The entire classroom goes into a state of absolute silence. In an entire room full of people, you could clearly hear the ticks of a clock. Eyes go wide, heads turn to seek comfort in company. They realize that the horror once thought to be left behind, gone, left for dead never to come back; was still alive. It was waiting… waiting to strike in the dark.
The scene cuts back to the president. His eyes were a bit squinted, facial expressions being down yet calm, and he appeared emphatic. President continued:
"I know hearing this might have made you all, shocked, scared, anxious, nervous, and all those fearful words. I understand you are still just youngsters, trying to make the best out of your school lives. Still, this is an important message you need to understand. Because even though you all are youngsters, you aren't just any 'bunch of youngsters'..."
The scene slowly transitioned to a compilation of various photos of students taking many prestigious awards from around the world.
"... You all are the students of HS Kolar, you all are the pride of this entire nation, the seeds of a better future. Geniuses in every field. The responsibility I am about to give you kids is not something kids should be worried about but unfortunately, with great shame, I have to assign you all a task…"
Once again, the screen cuts back to the presidents. While continuing his speech he makes a fist and light bangs it against his chest as a sign of respect and gratitude for strength and loyalty.
"...The task might be tricky, but I am with absolute confidence when I say that students of HS Kolar will! Triumph over any task given to them…"
After hearing the reassuring yet intimidating words of the President, all students were scared yet awe-struck, fearful yet somewhat excited. It was as if the students were given a sort of promotion directly by the President. The Scene cuts to some footage of the outside school campus, it shows a compilation of men wearing black suits and black goggles, the camera is angled in a way that it feels as if the viewers were looking up to these men, they looked tall, strong, and intimidating.
"We have our special forces dispersed all over High and Low Nixtom. You may have even noticed some of them while walking to the school today. These agents are here to protect you all, and I assure you that they are very! Good at their job. But that being said you must realize, that not all foes come with tanks, carrying guns and rifles. Some of them come with friendship, employment, trade, and even education…" As soon as the President said this.
Many photos started flashing by in a quick succession. These photos were of the Kolar classrooms, taken directly from the inside. It was just for a second but it seemed like a photo of Abhi flashed by in the video. Abhi noticed this, his eyes widened, he looked surprised but immediately calmed down, perhaps he thought it was just his imagination? It would be very unlikely that Abhi's photo came up in this video because the video had started just a few minutes after Abhi sat down in the classroom. It would be implausible that a photo of him was in the video.
Upon hearing this. Students squint their eyes which are filled with wariness.
The president comes back on the screen: "What I am trying to say is there are enemies hidden in plain sight. Outsiders such as these special agents could never fish out enemies from the inside, regardless of how good they are at their job. What we need are agents that belong to this city, agents that are the citizens of this society with internal connections to its people and land. What I'm saying is we need you all to be our agents, to protect this land and the people within it…"
Graphics of the tourist attractions and other beautiful places of the city pop up on the screen, and even some visual references to the city's culture are shown.
"...Now, even I'm not evil enough to ask a bunch of kids as young as 16 to physically protect anything. But what we need is your mind, students of Kolar are some of the most educated and intelligent people in the world. What we…
No, what I ask of you all is to be the eyes of this land, find whatever information you can about the enemy, keep a lookout on the surroundings, and report absolutely anything suspicious to your teachers, in case of urgency or emergency you may even report to the agents spread all across the city.
This task is extremely important, as the magnitude of the combined pool of information produced from all you students is far beyond what our significantly fewer agents could accomplish." Students start discussing among themselves: "Oh my God, are we really being handed such an important responsibility?"
"I don't think I'm ready for this, this is so scary." "Think about it though, why would the president give us such a responsibility if he didn't think we are capable of handling it." "You've got a point mate, I knew students of Kolar were considered dependable and respected by everyone, but this is far beyond anything I expected".
"Also, you are also responsible for keeping this interaction between us a secret, you can tell your parents about this but that is the only way the word of this gets out. Keep this in mind as this is for both your safety and the safety of the nation."
The scene slowly transitions to show the Tricolor Indian flag waving in the sky. This scene is played for a few seconds until suddenly it cuts back to the president. The video zooms in to the point where just the deep brown eyes of the president are visible in the video taking up the entire screen. It was almost like the president was trying to look deep into the soul of the person watching, it was ominous…
Then in a slightly aggressive tone, the President said: "One last thing. Even though I have given you all a task to collect as much information as possible, I'd still like to remind everyone that Rakvill is still in absolute Lockdown. Since the first war in 1969, no person has been allowed to go in or come out of Rakvill. In certain special circumstances, this rule may have been ignored and the rule breakers forgiven but regardless, researching Rakvill is strictly Forbidden. The President pauses in his speech. The video slowly zooms out to show his entire upper body while he is shown to take a sip of water.
He releases a sigh, calms his tone, and proceeds to speak some more: "So the responsibility that is given to you; all of my lovely youngsters is still no excuse to research any forbidden data. That being said, I wish nothing but good fortune to all of you and hope to see this generation blossom into something great and change the course of the future. Jai Hind".
Click! Click! Kachank! The screen blinks a few times and goes blank.
Hearing this most students were perplexed as researching Rakvill being illegal was common knowledge these days.
but unlike others one student looked absolutely flabbergasted; he was sweating his brains out, almost shaking in his boots. That student was the one sitting next to Abhi. He was none other than Veer. Abhi seems to have taken notice of Veer's sudden obscure behavior. Suddenly Veer turned around like he was looking for something, and Abhi turned in the same direction to check what Veer was looking at.
Turns out two more students were showcasing similar expressions to Veer, and all three of them were looking at each other like a triangle of disturbed faces was interconnected between the class. Among the other 2 was a short girl with blue hair and blue eyes, and a tall guy with short black hair and green eyes.
While gazing at each other they noticed that Abhi was looking at them as well so all three of them reverted their gaze back to the screen and tried to calm down their expression. So Abhi followed in their footsteps and did the same.
"Oh wow, it seems like it was a special video file. It got automatically deleted on its own after being played out in full." said teacher Ms Oxlong. So that's why they said under no condition to play the video even once except when showing it to all the students. Sigh I'm so glad I followed the protocol this time.
"Well, you heard the man, as he said it is very important to do the task given to you which is to keep an eye on the surroundings, but it's also important to keep this interaction a secret. Also, the obvious, it's not recommended to research Rakvill as it will actually be considered a crime. That's that, now how about we start with the introduction session you all wanted? Students from the first row, start your introductions first then everyone goes one by one".
Students started to give a lackluster introduction one after another, at this time it was like no one cared about getting to know each other; everyone was talking about what just happened and how insane it was that the president of the country would personally send the students a video. Not knowing each other wasn't enough to make them stop gossiping about this. Every intro just came out as reluctant, so the intros were just scoffed at and ignored as nothing could've been more interesting than a message straight from the president, but unlike others, Abhi paid attention to all of them, focusing especially on the 3 students who made a triangle of disturbed faces.
In the 3rd column came the intro of the tall guy with black hair: "I'll go next. I'm Kevin Smollegs Revy from Belgium. I like weight lifting, calisthenics, boxing, and ummm… furries."
This grabs some students' attention and the class lets out a small chuckle, while the teacher says: "Ha. Ha. Very funny Kevin, now next!"
After a few more intros at the back of the 3rd column comes the blue-haired girl's turn: "Good morning, I'm Dep Dugyum I grew up in here in Rakvill but I'm originally from China. For a few years, I lived in the north because my dad was on duty in the Rakvill War, but we are finally back now. Also, I like reading and writing, and a bit of Muay Thai, and I just wanted to say this was the craziest first day ever. I don't think anything in life will shock me now ha-ha! Thank you".
After this, the class goes back to discussing the events that transpired regarding the president instead of paying attention to the intros.
After a few more intros the queue reaches the last bench. The turn came for Abhi's bench to give their intros; as he was trying to stand up and give his intro "Good morning I'm Ab-"
the orange-haired guy next to him unintentionally interrupted him and started giving his intro with a strong voice instead: "I'm Veer Singh Noubiches from Punjab. I like swimming, football, a little bit of Dungeons, MMA, and reading. So, I hope to have a good time with y'all in the next few years, also NOT A FURRY."
"Good morn-" Abhi immediately tries to get his intro out but gets cut off again by the class's laughter because of Veer's sneaky comeback toward Kevin. "Good morning I'm Abhi, and I like...." "Ha! Ha! Ha!"
Abhi's intro gets completely overshadowed by the laughter from Veer's joke. "...I like to study… I like to run... and walk, and I came to this city just a few months ago… and I'm from…" "Ha! Ha! Ha!" "That's enough giggles. let's hear the last of the intros so we can get into the studies for today" Says Ms Oxlong.
The silly comeback from Veer led to the class paying attention to the intros one last time, and with the teacher's words the class calmed down and their laughs stopped disrupting Abhi and they finally listened…
"...I came to this city just a few months ago… and I'm from…" Rakvill".
