i also had a weird mix of wanting my ocs to be from the most populated countries (obviously because most people live there) and wanting them to be from countries that people are like?? actually from? like yeah not that many people are from kyrgyzstan but its still a COUNTRY. on the other hand statistically how many of them would also be from a country with a very small population. two is definitely the character from the smallest and least well know country in western culture i think (total population of <100k)

of the countries that my characters ARE actually from united states, nigeria, brazil and japan are all in the top 15 (with kenya and colombia also being in the top 30) so i dont think that i did too bad a job in that regard

yes maybe im overthinking this lol

#meanwhile tonga is all the way at the bottom of the list at the 195th most populated countries worldwide #with i think a little over 107k people now!!#txt #object ocs

White Bear Artillery Brigade.

I'm not here to share anything earth shattering or reveal new information. I'm just going to elaborate on what I know and how I see it. Feel free to form your own opinions.

Ok so, from everything I know, this is how I'm understanding it (long ramble)...

Republic of Korea (ROK) Armed Forces is one of the largest and most powerful standing armed forces in the world. At any given time, it consists of about 600,000 active duty soldiers and approximately 3 million reservists.

Soldiers are automatically transferred to the Reserve Forces upon discharge from their initial active duty service and serve four years in the Mobilization Reserve followed by four years as a Homeland Reservist. No one ever talks about this. They are not "free" following their active duty service. They are still considered reservists.

Jimin and Jungkook are in the White Bear Artillery Brigade of the 5th Infantry Division of the Republic of Korea Army (ROKA).

ROKA itself, the Army, is the largest of the military branches. The other ROK military branches are ROK Navy and ROK Air Force. The ROK Marines are part of their Navy forces.

It might be difficult to fathom the scope and size of ROKA. Here is an outline of the structure. You will need to scroll down a ways to see where the 5th Infantry Division falls. It is under Army Ground Operations and then under V Corps (Corps 5).

The White Bear Brigade consists of the: 195th, 196th, 205th and 988th Field Artillery Battalions. The 196th is also called YELLOW DRAGON.

I do not know which Field Artillery Battalion Jimin and Jungkook are assigned to.

Each of these Field Artillery Battalions are scattered in different locations but tied to the 5th Infantry Division. The 5th Infantry Division's top general controls these Field Artillery Battalions.

And the term "field" only means they are not located at the training base where Jin is.

It means they are out in the "field" in another remote, secluded strategic location, away from the main base, where if necessary, they and their artillery, can be deployed efficiently and rapidly should this action be required.

They don't see Jin any more. He is at a separate location.

The front line between South Korea and North Korea is lined with hills and low-lying mountains, they will be nestled up in there somewhere.

"Field" does not mean they are living in the middle of a farm field in tents, cooking food over campfires. It means they are at a base somewhere in the hills and mountains. This base will hold lots of other soldiers, though not as many soldiers as there are at the original training base where Jin is because that's sort of a hub where they deploy the newly trained soldiers from.

Simple terms: Jimin and Jungkook are out there in the middle of nowhere near the front lines at a base where they take care of weaponry like tanks and the ammo for tanks in case they have to quickly respond to an attack. Heaven forbid.

Anyway. How many ways can I explain that? Obvs a bunch.

Military jobs.

There are probably dozens of jobs that an Army base like theirs requires.

Cooking food to feed all the soldiers is one of those jobs. Cleaning the kitchen after cooking is part of that job. There were rumors since January that Jungkook was a kitchen worker. Those in the K-military call it Kitchen Police. And then JK just said he is cooking rice and cleaning up to the ceiling so that pretty much confirms he is indeed a Kitchen Police.

In the context of him being enlisted in the military and him coming to tell us he is doing good in the military, he is telling us he cooks rice and cleans up afterward.

He didn't mean he sometimes randomly cooks rice in his room. Nor did he mean he made himself a snack. It doesn't mean he also has a second job of cleaning. Everything he does will be associated with the Kitchen Police.

Their days are very regimented and structured. He will be one soldier on a team of soldiers tasked with creating enough food 3 times a day to feed the entire base. It is a full time job.

The rumor for Jimin is that he might be in a role that involves maintenance. Maintenance of what? We don't know. But what we know about Jimin is that he was on the robotics team in school, he has leadership skills, and he made a bunch of LEGO kits and a miniature house model in front of us during several weverse lives. Is he putting together computers? Is he reassembling machinery? We don't know.

The Companion Enlistment Program.

The buddy system was created in 2003 in order to foster better outcomes and psychologically stronger soldiers. It allows those who choose to enlist under this program to be with someone who they can gain this support from throughout their enlistment. That's the whole point. To be together during their enlistment.

The age range is dynamic. Every year this range progresses one year.

For 2023, the age range for this program were those born between Jan. 1, 1995 and Dec. 31, 2005. For 2024, the age range will be those born between Jan. 1, 1996 and Dec. 31, 2006. And so on.

The reason is because only Korean men between the ages of 18-28 are conscripted. 2023 was the last year Jimin was eligible for this program.

The criteria is very specific when choosing this type of enlistment. You can't "game" the system by enlisting in this program for reasons other than the ones the military has set for this type of enlistment. It's the military... they are masters at the "game." Strategy, out-thinking the enemy, creative warfare... that's their gig.

The barracks where Jimin and Jungkook sleep will be the same. The bathroom where they wash up will be the same. The cafeteria where they eat will be the same. Their recreational facilities will be the same.

It's the same base, same facilities. They may not be in each other's faces while they perform their jobs every day, but they see each other EVERY DAY. They sleep together EVERY NIGHT.

Delulu time.

Every time I say that I go "hammer time" and think of MC Hammer and the song starts in my head...anyway... I'm a dork.

I can imagine Jungkook's day starts a little earlier than Jimin's because the kitchen will need to be ready to serve breakfast for the rest of the soldiers.

There might be other teams/groups who also begin their day earlier than others. Perhaps they all gather and do some sort of brief, early morning drills or general chores before heading off to their respective posts/jobs for the day. I don't know, just guessing.

The kitchen team would do things like take in supplies, store the supplies correctly according to regulations, place orders for more supplies, gather the ingredients to make that day's menus, prepare the foods according to specified recipes, serve the food, maintain and clean the serving area, maintain and clean the cooking appliances, cookware, cooking utensils, clean the food trays and eating utensils, clean the kitchen from floor to ceiling, plan and prepare for the next day's menus, doing any preliminary prep like thawing frozen food, etc.

Menus are not decided on a whim. The Army will have set daily menus and have contracts within the country's food industry to provide ingredients and supplies in bulk.

I used to think it was slightly odd to obsess over the food they were being served in the military. But now I'm keenly interested. Is there a jikook food tray account on X?

As I don't really know the details of Jimin's job, I can only guess that he reports to his job, carries out his duties just like Jungkook and just like all their fellow soldiers. His duties may be similar in that he inventories supplies, orders new supplies/parts. Or he might be training for a specific skill like polishing glass for gun scopes or something. I just made that up to use as an example.

Of course, duty on base would be vastly different from combat if they were to actually be activated to fight. I don't want to think about that.

Perhaps during the course of their week, they all attend classes or lectures or informational meetings or whatever. I don't know. That's just a guess. But somehow, information would need to be shared and continuing training would need to occur.

At the end of the day, they'd head back to their own barracks and enjoy their evening of free time. They'd get their phones for a short period of time. From what I understand, depending on their location, their wireless signal may not be reliable or strong.

Maybe they work out. If so, they do it together. They are accustomed to doing that so there's every reason to think they'd also work out together while enlisted.

They can decompress in the company of each other, relaxing, being themselves in the comfort of familiarity. They can talk about things that they accomplished, things they learned or situations they got embarrassed about.

They can make jokes with each other, poke fun at each other, commiserate, empathize, laugh, express frustration or joy with each other.

If they have enough moments of privacy, they can vent about assholes they had to deal with or they can hype the nice people they interacted with during their day.

Or they can just relax in the company of each other in silence and nothing else.

You know... all the things you do with the person you are most comfortable with... the person they wanted next to them sharing the ups and downs of this period of their lives. It works out wonderfully for them.

Then lights out and go to sleep and do it all over again the next day.

Anyway. I send up my thoughts every day that they are safe, healthy, eating well, and that their bodies and minds are strong. I am thankful they have each other. It is day 97 into their service. 451 days remaining. FIGHTING!

[ 📹 Scenes of carnage and tragedy, resulting in outrage, following the recent Zionist airstrike targeting the al-Hanoud family home, sheltering a displaced family in Rafah City, in the southernmost city of the Gaza Strip, killing 7 Palestinian civilians, including at least 4 children.]

🇮🇱⚔️🇵🇸 🚀🚀🏘️💥🚑 🚨

MASS MURDER OF PALESTINIAN CIVILIANS CONTINUES ON THE 195TH DAY OF "ISRAEL'S" ONGOING GENOCIDE

On the 195th day of "Israel's" special genocide operation in the Gaza Strip, the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) committed a total of 7 new massacres of Palestinian families, resulting in the deaths of no less than 71 civilians, mostly women and children, while another 106 others were wounded over the previous 24-hours.

In a small bit of positive news amongst the horrors of Gaza, Algeria has announced it would be donating $15 million to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine (UNRWA).

The announcement was made by Algeria's Foreign Minister, Ahmed Attaf, who stated that Algeria was making an "exceptional financial contribution" to the UNRWA, worth over $15 million.

“Algeria, by decision of the President of the Republic, Abdelmadjid Tebboune, announces the provision of an exceptional financial contribution of $15 million to UNRWA," adding that Algeria considers the initiative “a true duty and a firm responsibility that falls on us and on other members of the international community.”

Meanwhile, the criminal Israeli occupation war of genocide continued, and even intensified, with several new deadly airstrikes pummeling the Palestinian people over the previous day, committing several new massacres and slaughtering civilian families, including large numbers of women and children.

In just one example, Zionist air forces bombed a tract of land and a residential building housing displaced civilian families late on Wednesday evening in the city of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, resulting in the murder of 7 civilians, including three children and a woman, which was later revised upwards.

Further reports of the Rafah strike stated that the number of civilians killed rose to 11 overnight following the work of civil defense crews, who managed to recover three additional corpses of Palestinian victims.

Additionally, the tract of agricultural land that was bombed by Zionist forces in the Al-Salam neighborhood of Rafah city, held a room that was occupied by the Ayyed family who were displaced from Gaza City, resulting in the martyredom of 8 family members, including 5 children and 2 women.

The Israeli occupation has been purposefully targeting displaced civilian families in Rafah, who were forced into the southern Gazan city following the start of the war.

In a previous example, another massacre occured on Tuesday when IOF fighter jets bombed the al-Hanoud family home, in which displaced families were sheltering, also in Rafah, resulting in the deaths of 7 Palestinians, including 4 children.

"Israel's" criminal behavior continued into Thursday morning with the wounding of three Palestinian civilians who were injured following an Israeli occupation airstrike which targeted residential homes in the town of Al-Mughraqa, in the central Gaza Strip.

What little remains of Gaza City was also a focus of the Israeli occupation army, with Zionist warplanes and artillery concentrated on shelling the Sheikh Ajlin and Al-Zaytoun neighborhoods, resulting in a number of casualties.

Occupation aircraft further bombarded residential homes and buildings in the Tal al-Hawa neighborhood and the Beach Camp area of Gaza City as well.

Following the withdrawal of Zionist forces from the Nuseirat Camp area of central Gaza, local civil defense crews worked to recover the bodies of those killed, however, crews say many still remain buried under the rubble and have yet to be uncovered.

Civil Defense personnel also said they'd recovered the bodies of at least 11 Palestinians from under the debris of the Khan Yunis governate, in the south of Gaza.

The Zionist crimes continued when Israeli warplanes bombed a residential building belonging to the Shaat family in the Yabna Camp area of the city of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, resulting in several casualties.

As a result of "Israel's" ongoing special genocide operation in the Gaza Strip, the death toll among the Palestinian civilian population has now risen to exceed 33'970 Palestinians killed, including over 14'560 children and 9'582 women, while an additional 76'770 others have been wounded since the start of the current round of Zionist aggression, beginning with the events of October 7th, 2023.

Earlier I posted about 4 IDF soldiers who were killed in action, this is one.

Cpt. Beni Wais, 22, a company commander in the 460th Armored Brigade's 195th Battalion, from Haifa.

May his memory be for a blessing.

Elita: Cat walks up to Lyra's house and knocks, Lyra opens the door, and smiles as she sees Cat. Time for some happier posts as two good friends in the 195th decade catch up with each other.

****

Lyra: Cat honey, what a lovely surprise, come in.

Cat: Hiya. Hope you don't mind. Thought I'd visit with you this time. Also, can I bum a cigarette from you? I am very desperate!

Lyra: Of course you can.

Cat: I was hoping to come by and see how you were doing anyway. I got a visit from that Agent fellow. One that works where Bob used to.

Lyra: Agent fellow? Plenty of those guys floating about that base. Wasn't a guy called Sanjay was it?

Cat: No a younger man, Tynas, and a woman with him.

****

Lyra: Tynas? *Lyra groans* Ah he's a bit of a bastard by all accounts. He also has me and Bob over a barrel concerning Guy

Cat: Yeah, a bit of one. What’s he on about Guy for?

Lyra: He knows Guy is a super soldier and said that he will keep quiet, provided Bob agrees to do a mission or favour for him at later date. So far... he hasn't called in his favour yet.

Cat: He knows too much. I think that's probably the most unnerving thing about him!

I realize I haven't made any text posts about Comte Ory, but really, what is there to say? It's a purely 4fun opera, no deeper message other than maybe "let young people have fun" or "men in nun costumes are sexy". But the plot and characters are compelling enough, the melodies are super fun, and there's just enough one can do with the basic war / religion / love theme that every production finds its own interesting angle. Love it.

Happy 195th anniversary to this most bisexual Rossini opera.

I saw a German mutual calling for Israel’s downfall. Like. Out of the 195 countries in the world, Germany is the 195th country that should have any opinion about Israel.

#antisemites are just coming out of the fucking woodwork ready for a politically correct moment to show their true thoughts and feelings #disappointed but not surprised
