Well - guess I'm waiting until hulu adds the episode! The severe storms in my area mean that abc aired storm coverage instead of 911 (do not blame them at all, it's looking bad tonight) so there was no chance for me to watch, even if I was able to do it live and not dvr it.

this whole superiority complex thing that 911blr has going about not being a cop show is sooo silly. are we just gonna ignore the many episodes that are Just or Primarily copaganda? Are we gonna ignore that the highest billed actor on the show plays a cop? come on be serious and engage critically with the media you consume by at the very least acknowledging reality

@lovecolibri WAIT RE: YOUR TAGS ABOUT INJURIES bc that drives me up the WALL in ls how often someone will be horribly injured and then never discuss it again. at least in the main show, you usually get a small b plot the episode after that delves into it - buck most noticeably tends to get an episode or two arc whenever he gets injured, but we see it frequently with eddie and bobby, and sometimes with chim and hen as well. like, yes they heal way faster than anyone realistically would OR there’s a small time jump and they’ll kind of comment on being back at work again. meanwhile, carlos AMD marjan straight up almost die and then they’re back at work like it’s nothing the next episode?? like, marjan’s lil side quest was excellently done imo (and honestly, tying it back to Marjan’s own belief in her strength, her faith, and adding in a reminder that she’s gotten this far because of the love and support of her family, that is the sort of story i’ve wanted for her, and the one [1] thing i will give the writers on both shows is that they clearly listen to feedback from the actors on their characters and imo that almost always leads to a richer storyline) but she was banged the FUCK up at the ending and then next episode she’s just. hanging out. still firefighting.
WHAT. WHY. chim in the og gets that treatment the worst (imo anyway. hen doesn’t really get arcs like that but that’s bc hen is not nearly as impulsive or accident prone as the entire rest of the 118 lmao, so she usually just doesn’t get injured as badly) but even chim gets an episode or two to deal with his ptsd after Maddie’s ex nearly kills him! buck gets at least one arc a season where he’s injured and has another quarter life crisis, bobby has had to chill out a few times after injury or a wobble in his sobriety, Athena was benched for like half a season after being injured, even Maddie will get b plots (or even main plots!) where she’s dealing with the emotional if not physical fall out of her job. Marjan’s car gets flipped off the road, she spends an entire day running through the woods bleeding and injured, and is then SHOT and KILLS SOMEONE and it’s just a shrug. We haven’t even heard from Iris since Carlos’ story wrapped!! The OG isn’t perfect at continuity or at, like you said, the kind of circular storytelling where something is brought up several episodes in a row as a b plot, then resolved as a main plot, but when you compare it to ls, there’s a clear disparity there that I find annoying. but rob lowe’s kids are in the writing room so Of Course they care more about Rob Lowe doing shit that has nothing to do with being a first responder (like, he’s not even going for ride alongs with Carlos or something! he’s just jogging around Austin and getting into shenanigans) than actually paying attention to the story they’re telling

KR went too dark and depressing and didn't give the character moments the show relies on to smooth over those hard things with some heart (aka all the good talks she insists happen off screen like the Bobby/Chim and Eddie/Chim talks when Maddie left, Eddie's apology to Bobby, Buck talking to Bobby to come sit with Eddie, the Buck/Chim talk etc), so now it seems like she wants to swing hard the other way. Which will probably mean lots of emergencies, more "gross" emergencies, and one-liner quips while still missing the mark on what has always been at the heart of the show because ultimately she has shown over 2 seasons of being in charge, that her idea of what the show should be is not what fans and the general audience always loved and enjoyed about the show and what made it stand out from other procedural shows.
You can only bank on so much good will from the audience. Most people let a lot of things slide in season 4 because of Covid and filming restrictions, but season 5 was an inconsistent mess where the few bright spots were when the show remembered to focus on its mains and even those weren't handled as well as they could have been. Eddie's arc was consistently the only thing getting positive reviews and his big decision, as well as Maddie and May's, that 5b set up all happened off screen. Hen and Karen's vow renewal was a montage in the last couple minutes of the episode with multiple cut aways to other things and the family we know and love was either not there or not sitting together, while the episode wasted time on pointless emergencies (all season actually but especially egregious here). The good will the show built up with the audience over the first 3 seasons was at its breaking point after 5x11 so them presenting an opening emergency needed to capture the audience's interest again.
This....did not. And it might end up being super cool and they might pull off something great! But they shouldn't be shocked that people are "meh" about this idea and unwilling to blindly trust the show is going to deliver, especially seeing KR still labeled as the showrunner. And doubly especially after seeing that article with her saying they went too dark last season as if she wasn't the one at the helm, and then refused to course correct for 5b after all the feedback and requests for the focus to be back on the mains. Instead, she added another character who wasn't needed at all to pull even MORE focus from the mains and we ended up with more emergency filler time because they had to cut 99% of that storyline 🙄
People are allowed to call the show out for burning up their good will, under-delivering, and leaving someone in charge who has proven over two seasons that she still doesn't understand the heart of the show. People are allowed to want to wait and see before getting excited about a storyline that in comparison with seasons 2 and 3, and after season 5's was SO underwhelming, looks like the set up for more of the same. 🤷🏻‍♀️

okay because I'm seeing some misinfo, here's the story on the Key Bridge collapse
What was the Key Bridge?
The Francis Scott Key Bridge (also called the Key Bridge, the Beltway Bridge, and the Outer Harbor Crossing) was steel-arch continuous-through-truss bridge spanning the Patapsco River south of the Baltimore Harbor. The bridge took 5 years to build and cost an estimated $145 million ($735 million in today's dollars). The full bridge project (including approaches) was 10.9 miles long, but the stretch over the Patapsco was 1.6 miles long and 4 lanes wide, and comprised a length of I-695, the Baltimore Beltway. It traveled between Hawkins Point and Dundalk, and in addition to the I-895 Harbor Tunnel was the primary way for Marylanders to cross from the Eastern Shore to the West. The bridge carried an estimated 11.5 million vehicles per year. There is a lane for ships to pass under the Key Bridge with enough clearance.
Was it structurally sound?
The bridge received its latest inspection in 2022 and received a 6/9 score, which is considered "fair" by federal standards. There was a concern with one of its columns, which was downgraded from a health index of 77.8 to 65.9, but it is not clear yet if this was one of the columns struck by the ship. In 1980 the bridge was struck by a different cargo ship which destroyed a concrete support structure, but the bridge itself was unharmed. There is as of yet no evidence that the bridge collapsed because of poor condition. Experts say the lesson to be learned is about the size and weight of modern cargo ships, and that the bridge was not to blame. Engineers have noted, however, that the bridge's piers lacked protective devices such as fenders.
What was the ship?
The MV Dali is a container ship flying the Singapore flag. It is owned by Grace Ocean Private Ltd. and operated by Synergy Marine Group Ltd. The ship is currently being chartered by Maersk, a Dutch shipping company. It was built in 2015 by Hyundai. The ship is 980 feet long and 157 feet wide. The ship's gross tonnage (its internal volume) is 95,128 tons (190,256,000 pounds). Its deadweight (the weight of cargo it can carry) is 116,851 tons (233,702,000 pounds). The ship was carrying 3,000 containers. The engine is a MAN-B&W 9S90ME putting out 41,480 kilowatts (55,626 horsepower).
Over its lifetime the Dali has been inspected 27 times, and only 2 faults were ever found. On June 27, 2023 the Dali was held in port in Chile due to an issue with the propulsion system. According to an inspector the pressure gauges on the heating system were "unreadable". The fault was fixed before the ship left port.
The Dali is crewed by 22 Indian nationals including 2 maritime pilots.
What happened?
The Dali arrived at the Port of Baltimore on March 23, 2024. At 12:44 AM on March 26, 2024 the Dali left port, beginning its journey to Colombo, Sri Lanka. At 01:26 AM the ship suffered a "complete blackout" and began to drift out of the shipping lane. It is not yet known what caused the electrical failure. The backup generator did not power the propulsion system. At around 01:26 AM the crew of the Dali sent a mayday distress call to the Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT) informing them of the loss of power and that a collision with the Key Bridge was possible. The anchors were dropped as an emergency measure to attempt to slow or stop the vessel. At the request of one of the pilots traffic flow over the bridge was immediately halted. Black smoke was seen coming from the Dali, which experts believe was the result of the crew managing to restart the power system to regain some maneuvering capability.
At 01:28 AM the Dali, traveling at 8 knots (considered to be a fast speed) collided with a support strut beneath the Key Bridge's metal truss at the southwest end of the bridge. A Baltimore resident said he heard the collision and that it "felt like an earthquake". Emergency teams began receiving 911 calls at 01:30 AM, and the Baltimore Police Department were alerted at 01:35 AM. One of the officers present radioed that he was going to go onto the bridge to alert the construction crew as soon as a second officer arrived, but the bridge collapsed seconds later.
What was the damage?
The Key Bridge has completely collapsed. The metal truss relies on structural tension from the bridge itself to maintain its rigidity. As soon as one of the support columns was destroyed, the rest of the bridge quickly followed.
The damage to the Dali is reported as minimal. The ship was impaled by the bridge's structure above the waterline, but has maintained watertight integrity. The crew has not reported any water contamination from its 1.8 million gallons of marine fuel. 13 containers carrying potentially hazardous material were damaged, and are being inspected by a team of Coast Guard divers. At least 5 vehicles including 3 passenger cars and a cement mixer were detected underwater, but authorities do not believe they were occupied
Who was hurt?
The crew of the Dali reports no casualties, except one crewmember who was hospitalized for minor injuries. There was a crew of 8 construction workers on the Key Bridge filling in potholes. 2 were immediately pulled from the water by rescue crews, with 1 being rushed to emergency care and the other reporting minor injuries and refusing treatment. The hospitalized worker has since been discharged. 1 of those rescued was Mexican. The remaining 6 remain missing. Of those 6, 2 have been identified:
Miguel Luna from El Salvador
Maynor Yassir Suazo Sandoval from Honduras
Of the remaining 4, 2 are Guatemalan nationals. Neither have been identified, but the Guatemalan Foreign Affairs Ministry has stated that they were a 26-year-old from San Luis, Petén, and a 35-year-old from Camotán, Chiquimula. The other 2 are presumed to be Mexican.
Rescue Efforts
The Coast Guard was immediately deployed for search-and-rescue operations. Military Blackhawk helicopters were seen over the river. Rescue efforts were ended at 07:30 PM on March 26, 2024 due to darkness, fog, and cold temperatures. Rear Admiral Shannon Gilreath said "Based on the length of time that we've gone in the search, the extensive search efforts that we put into it, the water temperature -- at this point, we do not believe that we're going to find any of these individuals still alive". Recovery operations resumed at 07:30 AM on March 27, 2024 with all 6 workers presumed dead.
No divers have yet entered the water underneath the bridge. Supervisory Special Agent Brian Hudson of the FBI's Underwater Search and Evidence Response Team said "the debris field is pretty sizable and I know that’s why they’re hesitant to send divers down because some of the debris is still shifting, the heavy weight of the rocks". The FBI has deployed Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) equipped with cameras and SONAR.
Aftermath
At 05:08 AM on March 26, 2024 Transportation Secretary Pete Buttegiege posted on X (formerly Twitter):
"I’ve spoken with Gov. Moore and Mayor Scott to offer USDOT’s support following the vessel strike and collapse of the Francis Scott Key bridge. Rescue efforts remain underway and drivers in the Baltimore area should follow local responder guidance on detours and response."
At 07:30 AM on March 27, 2024 President of the Maryland State Senate Bill Ferguson posted on X (formerly Twitter):
"Over 15,000 in the Balt region rely on daily operations at Port of Baltimore to put food on the table. Today, with Del. @LukeClippinger and colleagues representing Port, we are drafting an emergency bill to provide for income replacement for workers impacted by this travesty."
At around 09:40 AM on March 26, 2024 Maryland Governor Wes Moore and Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott declared a State of Emergency to take effect at 10:30 AM March 26, 2024, and to last 30 days. Baltimore's Emergency Operations Plan was put into effect.
More than 1,000 personnel from the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) have been deployed to assist with clearing the debris and rebuilding efforts. President Joe Biden has pledged that the federal government will pay for the entire reconstruction of the bridge.
Jennifer Homendy, the chair of the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has recovered the Dali's data recorder, and will be inspecting both the Key Bridge and the Dali to determine the cause of the crash and the collapse. She says the investigation could take up to 2 years to complete.
Was it intentional?
According to William DelBagno, head of the FBI's Baltimore field office: "There is no specific or credible information to suggest there are ties to terrorism in this incident".
Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas said: "There are no indications this was an intentional act".
At least 3 people have been killed in accidents related to ships operated by Synergy in the past 6 years. In 2018 a person on board a Synergy ship in Australia was killed in an accident relating to the vessel's personnel elevator. In 2019 an officer aboard a Synergy vessel in Singapore fell overboard while performing maintenance. In 2023 at least one sailor was killed when a Synergy ship collided with a dredging ship in the Philippines. In the first two cases safety inspectors noted that proper safety procedures had not been adhered to.

spence-tober: day 12 - nurse
Tumblr media Tumblr media
pairing: nurse!spencer reid x fem!reader
summary: in which your nurse husband panics when you're admitted to the emergency department
word count: 1457
warnings: lead up to pregnancy announcement, talk of hospitals and doctors and nurses, not a very accurate hospital environment
spence-tober masterlist
Tumblr media
This was just an entirely embarrassing situation for you, you thought as you laid your head back on the gurney pillow. Not only did you manage to faint in front of your coworkers and boss, now you were being seen by your husband’s coworkers and bosses.
Now, you don’t blame your coworkers for calling 911 for an ambulance for you. After all, you did faint and were unresponsive until the parademics arrived. 
And you don’t exactly blame your husband’s coworkers either. They were just following hospital protocol, doing everything in their power to make sure you’re okay.
You just wish that things hadn’t escalated so much because you know its only some time until your worrywart husband finds out you’ve been admitted into the ED, his place of work.
He must be at lunch, you think. His coworkers, the doctors in the ED and his fellow nurses, would have already tattled on you and told him that you’ve been admitted in any other situation, so he must be busy. 
Being in the medical profession, Spencer was a worrywart. What with his big brain and his capacity to store knowledge easily, it was hard for him not to jump to every possible other conclusion for a fever and cough other than a simple cold.
Luckily, you didn’t have the propension of getting sick or injured, so it Spencer didn’t have much to worry about to worry about in that department. 
But that’s what’s going to make this situation a whole lot worse, you think to yourself, sitting up on the edge of the gurney now, legs hanging off the side. After a few assurances to the nurses, most of whom you’ve met before, you were allowed to remain in your own clothes and could forgo the gown. 
Your boss, once you called and explained the situation to him, had allowed you the rest of the day off so all you were waiting for is for your husband to barge in and to be discharged. 
“Where is she?!”
You heard the panicked voice of your husband from across the Emergency Department of the hospital. In the room you’ve been assigned, there are glass doors with some curtains as an option, an option you’ve decided to pass on as you thought it would add not needed worry for your husband.
In three large pounding steps against the linoleum floor, Spencer appeared from the hallway and rounded the corner, barging into the room.
“Oh my god,” Spencer says, finally being able to look at you. You see tears, welling in the corner of his eyes.
You reach out to him, comfortingly, “I’m okay, Spence,” Spencer dashes into your arms, carefully, “This was just all one big misunderstanding.” You try to explain.
Spencer then holds you at arm’s length, doing a once over and searching for any signs of injury on you.
“You fainted?” He asks, his tone frantic and worried.
You nod, running your fingers through his hair. It’s comforting to him and something that Diana used to do when he was a child. “Yes, but I am okay.”
In the doorway of your room, you see Emily, one of the emergency department doctors, standing there with a small tablet used for records and patient information. 
“How could you know that? Have they run tests yet? What did they say? Did you hit your head? Do you remember when you fainted? Did you blackout? Were you drinking enough water? Was it something at work?” Spencer rambles off, asking you everything his mind could be thinking of, to answer for why his wife was in the hospital.
“Reid,” Dr. Prentiss calls out from behind him, getting his attention, “Why don’t you sit down?” She offers, kindly. 
She sends a smile to both you and your husband. 
Even though you’ve never been admitted to the emergency department or the hospital in general, you have met all of your husband’s colleagues. Some of them became closer to you than others. It started as simple as bringing Spencer his forgotten lunch or perhaps take out to share in the hospital cafeteria. Then, once you got to know them, they would invite you along for girl’s night, baby showers, weddings, and birthday parties. 
There was the Chief of Patient Services, David Rossi. Chief of the Emergency Department, Aaron Hotchner. Emergency Department doctors, Emily Prentiss and Derek Morgan. Spencer’s fellow nurse, Jennifer Jareau, and the darling ED receptionist, Penelope Garcia.
These people had seen you and Spencer get engaged and then married. Jennifer even helped Spencer pick out your ring! 
And now, they were also here to see your first admittance into the hospital and how much of a worrier, Spencer can be.
Your husband listens to Emily, but also his eyes zone in on the tablet in her hand, “Are those lab results?” He asks. 
With the look in his eye and if you didn’t know any better, you would think Spencer was about to snatch that tablet out of her hand. Not willing to leave anything to chance, you take his hand in yours and squeeze it tightly, giving him a smile.
You laugh at your husband’s expression, “If you had just let me explain, I would’ve told you that they took blood tests to make sure everything was fine. And it is.”
His head whips back towards you, “How would you know that? The blood tests just came back.” Spencer asks, confused.
Dr. Prentiss looks at you with a knowing smile, you two exchange grins. You know it’s driving Spencer insane that he’s the one on the outs. 
“Would you like to tell him?” She asks, a sly grin on her face.
You shake your head and look at Spencer, who’s looking at the pair of you like you’re insane, “Go ahead and show him.”
Emily walks closer to the two of you and offers the tablet to Spencer who greedily takes it. His eyes scan all the data and information, his fingers scrolling quickly as he speed reads the results.
After a few moments, Spencer looks back at you confused. “I don’t understand.” He says.
His tone is getting a little more frustrated and you pity him a little bit. You weren’t planning on telling him like this and now that you were, you didn’t want him to worry himself to death before understanding what is going on.
“Check the hCG levels,” You inform him. Emily stands off to the side, giving you two a more private moment. Out in the lobby of the ED, you can see Jennifer and Penelope peeking in to see what’s happening. Even Derek has passed your room several times more than needed in the past few minutes. 
“The hCG?” Spencer questions for a moment before you can see the wheels and cogs in his brain finally land on the right solution. 
His eyes widen and he looks at your face and then glances down at your stomach, hidden by your blouse. 
“Really?” He whispers softly. You nod and laugh at his shocked expression, laughing even more when he turns his attention back to the tablet and frantically tries to find where your hCG levels would be recorded.
His finger stops scrolling when he finally finds it. Spencer looks at the level indicator and then back at you which is when you finally see the tears in his eyes. The biggest smile on his face breaks out and he looks at you with adoring eyes.
“Oh my god, you’re pregnant?” Spencer finally says, confirming the diagnosis.
You can’t help when tears of happiness start falling down your face as well, “I took two tests yesterday,” You tell him.
His hands come up to hold your face as you continue, “I had a doctor’s appointment scheduled for later today, but I got pretty dizzy at work and fainted and that’s how I ended up here. I had a sneaking suspicion why I fainted though.” 
You both share a laugh. “I swear, I was gonna tell you as soon as the doctor confirmed it.”
“Guilty.” Emily pipes in, her own eyes have some tears hidden in the corners. 
Spencer laughs and kisses your temple, then again at your cheek, nose, and then finally a sweet kiss full of joy and happiness and excitement.
“You’re pregnant.” Spencer repeats softly as he pulls back from the kiss, still his attention is fully on you.
“We’re pregnant.” You correct, soft eyes looking at the love of your life. Spencer nods in agreement and kisses you again.
“Congratulations, you two.” Emily comments before leaving the room. 
Little did you know, she would be one of the first people to tell you that in another hospital room as Spencer held your daughter, nine months later.
Tumblr media
a/n: this might not be for people who don't like pregnancy or mention of children. that's why i put in the warnings that it does talk and lead up to the grand announcement of a pregnancy, for anyone who that might be a sensitive subject for.

HE’S A 10 BUT... + evan buckley (pt 1)
(911 + he’s a 10 but...)
[Image ID: five large rectangular gifs of Evan Buckley from multiple episodes of 9-1-1. Each gif is overlaid with text in the meme format, "He's a 10, but...". "He's a 10 but..." is in white text, with the meme below in bold blue-and-lilac text. Underneath is a byline in parentheses, written in white capital letters.:
GIF 1: Buck turning around to find that he's too tall for the rollercoaster in 3.01, after checking if Chris is tall enough. Chris laughs at him, and despite Buck's confused pleading, the guy running the ride shakes his head, not letting him onto the ride. The text reads, "He's a 10 but...he's too tall to ride rollercoasters (yet he tries to ride them anyway)."
GIF 2: Buck defending himself for telling Chris about the kid stuck in the rotisserie to Eddie in 4.08, saying it was a cautionary tale. The text reads, "He's a 10 but...he tells stories about kids stuck in rotisseries (to other kids, as "cautionary tales")."
GIF 3: Buck sprawled out in the middle of his bed with exhaustion after the blackout in 5.03. He sucks in a breath and releases it slowly. The text reads, "He's a 10 but...he wears outside shoes on his bed (with his outside clothes)."
GIF 4: Buck telling Hen and Bobby about his idea to buy his girlfriend a portable generator in 5.10, and then explaining his reasoning behind it. Hen and Bobby look at him with an exaggerated mix of pity and bewilderment. The text reads, "He's a 10 but...he thinks a portable generator is a good Christmas present (for his long-term girlfriend)."
GIF 5: Buck excitedly bouncing as he walks when he realizes that the call they're attending is actually the shoot of a reality show he watches. He grabs Hen's shoulder to show her. He smiles and waves at the camera, tipping his head cheekily as he and Hen walk past. The text reads, "He's a 10 but...he would die to be on reality television (but not the news. never that.)”
