Liberty Ship SS Jeremiah O'Brien – Pier 45 – San-Francisco – Californie – Etats-Unis – 8 mars 2008

Photographe : Mike Hofmann

Les Liberty Ship sont des cargos produits en très grande série à partir d'éléments préfabriqués soudés à l'arc électrique et destinés à ravitailler les forces alliées. La technique de fabrication imaginée par l'industriel Henri Kaiser permit d'obtenir des cadences de production qui compensaient les pertes occasionnées par les sous-marins allemands dans l'Atlantique. La durée moyenne de fabrication était de 42 jours avec un record établi à 4 jours au lieu de 12 mois environ pour une fabrication classique. La rapidité de construction et le faible coût de production permirent d'en construire 2 710, ce qui fit de ce navire le modèle le plus construit dans le monde.

Seuls deux cargos sont encore en état de naviguer : ils ont été transformés en navires musées aux États-Unis dans les années 2000, le SS John W. Brown à Baltimore et le SS Jeremiah O'Brien à San Francisco.

"She Swings for Victory Right In Der Fuehrer's Face," Toronto Star. April 26, 1943. Page 17. ---- HITLER'S MAP caricatured on the prow shows where the the S.S. Wiley Post, liberty ship, is headed, at its launching in Los Angeles. Mrs. G. H. Macomber takes careful aim with a champagne bottle (but it wasn't champagne) to give Adolf taste of what's coming. The ship was launched on Hitler's birthday with the hope that it would be his last.

I can just imagine this as a fascination of The Funky Phantom (Jonathan Muddlemore) and crew over the summer

As in a researching of the legendary "Poker Fleet" as sailed the Great Lakes between Duluth, Port Huron, Detroit and Buffalo in the years between the two World Wars.

The "Poker Fleet" being the five World War I-surplus boats of the Minnesota-Atlantic Transportation Company (MATCO), viz., Ace, King, Queen, Jack and Ten--the very hand known as the Royal Flush, the single most valuable such in poker. (And chosen because they were short and easy to remember, especially on the part of "Sparks," as the radioman on a boat was colloquially called.)

The vessels may have been government surplus, excusing the cheap price paid for them--not to mention having a draft of 5½ feet, which allowed them to traverse the Erie Canal between Buffalo and Albany during a brief foray to the Ports of Albany and New York as proved unprofitable, forcing a cutbackl to the Great Lakes as far as Buffalo (as could be reached from Duluth in four days via the Soo Locks).

As well as going into receivership--and a number of mysterious accidents involving crew members, including the radioman of one vessel preparing to leave Duluth being killed in a hit-and-run accident en route to the wharf and the captain of another found dead in his hotel room under mysterious circumstances.

At any rate, by 1935 MATCO went out of business and its vessels scrapped, the whole having become rather unprofitable.

thinking about how v’s name is only uttered twice during the events of cyberpunk 2077, and only once by the person who knew her the most. how the alias of “v” become something akin to a mask, something to hide behind. v the merc, strong-willed and capable. she put “valerie” to bed years ago, buried her. thinking about the conversation at the oilfields, when johnny says “most people i thought were my friends couldn’t even stand to be in the same room with me. you’re fucking closest to me by a long shot, there 24/7. and yet, you don’t seem to hate my living guts.” the intimacy of sharing one mind, one heart. v and johnny as an “us” and “we” in the most literal sense of the word; one and the same. thinking about the tower’s epilogue, where v talks aloud to johnny, even though he’s not there. how in all the endings where one is left without the other, how often that must have happened. how painful it would be to become accustomed to sharing one mind with each other, only to have that ripped away, and the loneliness that must come with it.

#phantom liberty spoilers #im so normal about them !!!#SO normal !!!#the whole conversation in the av in the tower ending … gut wrenching #especially when you have high affinity with johnny #cyberpunk 2077 #silverv #johnny x v #johnny silverhand #v cyberpunk #phantom liberty #ship: one and the same

How many times V and So Mi touch each other?

Total count as well every scene included is under cut. Hope I didn't miss anything. If I did, feel free to add :)

I counted scenes with So Mi's Relic version as well, even though technically they can't touch each other

Also, I allowed myself to add some comments in few scenes

Enjoy ;)

EDITED: Total count: 27/9

First number for siding with So Mi, second - siding with Reed

Dog Eat Dog - V tries to touch So Mi

Dog Eat Dog - So Mi grabs V's hand

THAT SCENE i was screaming

You Know My Name - V meets So Mi face to face and touches her back

You Know My Name - Songbird reestablishes Relic conection through touch

You Know My Name - the same

The Damned (I won't count it, but still wanted to include it ) - So Mi tries to touch V

Firestarter - V helps So Mi get up from the ground

Killing Moon - they touch each other so many times, it was actually difficult to count 😅

V comforts So Mi in the van

So Mi and V hide from the helicopter

my beloved water scene - V helps So Mi get up (and notice how she holds on to V as long as she can 🥹)

Tower scene, V kneels down and places their hand on So Mi's knee

when V connects to Songbird via personal link, So Mi takes their hand into her own

V touches So Mi's shoulder before she connects to the Blackwall

V helps So Mi stand up

EDIT : V protects So Mi from the helicopter blast (I reached attachment limit, so I can't add this gif here😥. EDIT2: I removed one gif to add this one! Also, huge thanks @jshepardtsoni for reminding me about that scene in ur tags 💙)

V checks if So Mi's still alive

V picks So Mi up (her voice breaks me)

V helps So Mi sit down in the train

Knee scene 🥹🥹 *pat pat*

V keeps So Mi awake (was I the only person who had flashbacks to Jackie's death?? I was so scared for her ._.)

A little help from V

V places So Mi on the ground

AND I'M SORRY, BUT V DIDN'T HAVE ANY REASON TO HOLD SO MI'S HAND FOR SO LONG

there is no heterosexual explanation for this

V picks So Mi up from the ground

V places So Mi in the seat

V prepares So Mi for the flight

Last time V touches So Mi

Somewhat Damaged - EDIT3: Added gif. I reached attachment limit tho, so not all scenes are shown :')

Comforting So Mi - V hugs her and the way she's holding their hand is just destroying me. and the hand nuzzle ._. i'm weak

Also, V can shake So Mi instead of hugging her

this fcking scene ._. and it's worth mentioning that V touches So Mi's face twice

V carries So Mi's body from the car

#took few days to gather it all together #i am going insane don't i?#i reached the attachment limit lol #probably my longest post ever #also referring to v as they/them cause it can be anyone's v #but just so you know... i was playing femV and I will die for this ship #i will later post separately few of these gifs ;)#song so mi #songbird #cyberpunk 2077 #phantom liberty spoilers #phantom liberty #cyberpunk 2077 spoilers #songbird cyberpunk #songv #so mi/v #songbird/v

"Cyberpunk: Wires"

Guest Appearance: Alyona "Aon" Petrova (belongs to @ouroboros-hideout) Fun facts:

Episodes are named after music except "ATH3N4"

Each season entry shows on the bar how much I revealed from the story so far in Wires and Dogtown Nights

2137 is a Polish reference

Season 3 is in two parts, where Part 1 happens in 2077 and Part 2 in 2079. Part 2 can be distinguished by Wiosna's metamorphosis. References: "The Perfect Girl" by Mareux "The Man Who Sold the World" by Midge Ure "Nocturnal Me" by Echo And The Bunnymen "Lovers From The Past" by Mareux "From Russia with Love" by Matt Monro "Succession" by Nicholas Britell "Follow You Into The Dark" by RAKEL "DO YOU REMEMBER ME???" by emily jeffri "Seven Devils" by Florence + The Machine Thanks @fereldanwench for finding this template I really loved the idea.

WE WERE TOO DIFFERENT || WE WERE TOO ALIKE

Cyberpunk 2077 // Fredrik Backman // William Bouguereau with a quote by Richard Siken // chloe moriondo // Gang of Youths // Carl Goos with lyrics from 'Hadestown' // Hannah Tinti

#Cyberpunk 2077 #Phantom Liberty #Phantom Liberty Spoilers #V #Johnny Silverhand #Was spoiled on this dialogue option and even though that sucks this exchange has not left my head since #Honestly for someone who doesn't ship SilverV romantically this is probably the most SilverV thing I've ever made lol #I was just kinda trying something more elaborate-- experimenting with some styles #It feels slightly disjointed and half the references are just for myself lol but I liked how it came out #Maybe when I actually BUCKLE DOWN and PLAY THE DLC I can get more inspiration #Aldi speaks #Literature
