🔥 Lateral Spread of Flame Test – Essential for Fire Safety Compliance 🔥

Fire safety is critical in industries such as construction, transportation, aviation, and marine. The ISO 5658 Lateral Spread of Flame Test is designed to measure how fire propagates across the surface of materials. This test ensures that materials used in high-risk environments meet global fire safety regulations.

🔥 What is the ISO 5658 Lateral Spread of Flame Test?

The ISO 5658 test evaluates the fire performance of materials by exposing them to a controlled flame. This test determines:

Flame Spread Rate: How quickly fire spreads across the material's surface.

Ignition Time: The time it takes for the material to catch fire.

Burning Behavior: The reaction of the material when exposed to direct flame.

Industries such as railway, aerospace, and construction require this test to ensure fire-resistant materials are used in buildings, trains, aircraft, and marine vessels.

all saw traps in order and whether i would survive them or not

part one: saw (2004)

razor wire trap - yes i would get out because i would be real gentle and careful getting through there but very very quick. i feel like where this guy went wrong was that he just slammed through it with no thought. i wouldn’t do this. he had some time. he didn’t need to do all that. just my opinion though. 7/10 survivability.

flammable jelly trap - no, that is too many numbers and too few details. with more information maybe but that’s just so much to comb through and i would fuck it up somehow. i don’t think i would catch on fire though i’m not that stupid. i just wouldn’t get the antidote in time. 2/10 survivability.

reverse bear trap 1.0 - yes but only if he didn’t wake up. i think i could get out of the chair just fine but i wouldn’t dick around wasting time trying to get it off. straight to the guy. again, if this means he would stay unconscious while i went in with the knife then i think i would be fine. however, if he woke up i would just die because i would feel bad and not cut him open! and if i was the key holder i’d definitely die. nothing to be done there imo. 6/10 survivability.

drill chair - yes. the person in the chair is presumably powerless but i feel good about saying i would be able to wiggle out at least a little. however, it is not up to me but to the outsider. so, if officer sing was there to glock down the machine i’d be fine. and if i was him, i also probably would have thought to break the machine to save the other guy. so regardless i’m living. 9/10 survivability.

quadruple shotgun hallway trap - yes. i’m not a fucking idiot. are you fucking kidding me. how did he not notice the trip wire. ohhh here i am in the house of the notorious trapper i’m sure i won’t encounter any booby traps while i’m on my way to kill him! fucking idiot. pay attention. 10/10 survivability.

zep’s test - no. i would not have kidnapped them in the first place for two reasons. one, i would not elect to do that. it’s not nice. two, i am physically not very strong and would not successfully kidnap alison without being overtaken. hell, i probably couldn’t even successfully kidnap diana. again, though, i wouldn’t. so the poison would kill me or jigsaw would get pissed and kill me immediately for disobeying. i mean i’d probably also go to a hospital about this but i don’t know that they would be able to help me so again. probably dead. 1/10 survivability.

bathroom trap - two parts to this. either way i would say yes, probably. first, if i was lawrence, i wouldn’t kill adam, which would result in my wife and kid being killed i guess. but i mean obviously that didn’t really work out. so that leaves all three of us alive. i would however have started sawing off my foot a lot earlier and thus i think i would have been a-okay. however, i would have stayed to try and help adam which may have led to my death but it’s hard to say. similarly, if i was adam, i would not have had any issues. all he had to do was survive and if lawrence was kind enough not to glock me down, i would, again, have sawed off my foot and gotten the fuck out of there when the time came. if, like the movie, he did try and glock me down, i would still have been loose from my chains because i would have sawed my foot off. and i mean the foot part, not the ankle. and i would have dodged. and if he did shoot me in the shoulder i would have been fine. i’m not a pussy. either way me and whoever else i was in the trap with would have hobbled our footless way out of there. alive. edit: my roommate says if i sawed my foot off so early, i would have bled out. so i must amend - i mean i would saw my shit off around 6:00 when i came to the conclusion that it was the last case scenario. also i would have done it cleanly and wrapped it real nice and then rolled right out of there when jigsaw popped up off the floor to let me out on good behavior or when zep bopped in to fuck someone's shit up. still. 7/10 survivability.

overall film survivability: 6/10 average when considering 7 traps. i like my odds. suck my fat one jigsaw i’m gonna live.

other parts can eventually be found under the hashtag saw trap survival tips.

[flooftyfizzlebeans]

Theory on why we headcanon specific characters as trans more often than others, using the Fizzlebeans as evidence.

Identity based character arcs vs... other stuff based character arcs.

Warning this is EXTREMELY LONG

Starting by analyzing Floofty, as they are my expertise.

Floofty is a scientist with no help, no funding, and ambitious plans. They come across as cold and uncaring, when in reality much of their shortsightedness comes from caring too much. Not for those closest to them directly, of course. But the greater good, and grumpuskind as a whole.

Their previous line of work suggests that when they had more resources, they spent more time helping individuals. Making prosthetics is a HIGHLY variable process, each individual limb that needs one being EXTREMELY different, even on the same person. Therefore they would need to be attentive towards individuals by necessity, even when making scientific breakthroughs. I don't think they'd have amazing bedside manner but I only bring this up to stress that Floofty is capable and willing to care for others should the situation call for it. However, they probably don't feel like they can afford to care after the events that cost them.... everything.

I assume they got their awesome career position through work during school, proving themself academically in a way that their.... abrasive characteristics wouldn't interfere with. Now that they have nothing, they're trying to get it back the same way they got it, by proving themself through actions.... but who they are and how people perceive them is directly responsible for their lack of help on Snaktooth. Actually, who they are likely made it near impossible to rebuild their reputation when inevitably grumps will think they are either chopping test subjects up to make murder machines or a confidentiality liability. They think their work should speak for itself, and who they are shouldn't matter. (They might even believe that they don't matter. It's already clear that their work is worth more to them than their own life.)

Realizing what they mean to others, who they could be to them when they let go of the big picture importance, and how they can help like they so desperately want to is integral to saving them. Let them forget that they are in fact, a grumpus, the very thing they want to save, and they might as well become what they study. Bugsnax.

...

Snorpy, however, as I've stated, is pretty much the opposite. Where Floofty rejects themself, Snorpy protects himself.... prepare for a staggeringly less complete analysis thanks to Not Literally Being Snorpy. Snorpies and Snorpy experts in the notes please contribute.

Snorpy is an engineer whose inventions are held in great esteem in Snaxburg, and yet he believes the world is out to get him. (By the world I mean... the grumpinati) The grumpinati is, in fact, not out to get him, and it takes incredible amounts of jumping to conclusions fueled by intense fear for anyone to shrink their world that small.

It's implied by his previous work that he was previously much more capable of... interacting with the public? being seen? than he is now. Like I mentioned, constructing prosthetics requires a lot of individual time and care, and a lot of interacting with many different grumpuses. But now? He is driven by fear. I can't even blame him, he's clearly deeply traumatized. How would you feel if your life's work was taken and warped for something you found cruel and evil all while you still depended on them for your livelihood? And you already probably had some sort of anxiety disorder?

Moving on, he is actually able to work perfectly fine. In fact, nearly every grumpus is seen using something he invented at least once? Despite inventions like The Knife Shot and flammable tripwire moments he's well liked by the town and everyone trusts his work to... work. But he's so absorbed by his own perceptions that it's impossible for him to take praise or even socialize without suspicion.

Even the relationship he holds most dear, and integral to what we call "Snorpy" is up in the air for him. I can only imagine he didn't ask for clarification or confess to his romantic feelings towards Chandlo out of fear. Fear of what exactly I can't say, as it's probably every possible factor that that course of action would change.

And... well. His main problem is never solved. Shelda is right, he needs therapy. Extensive therapy. But... he still improves. Part of why he does all of this is to protect Chandlo, and hide all of this from him... but after fighting Daddy Cakelegs it becomes a lot more clear to Snorpy that Chandlo is trying to protect him and knows a lot more than he gives him credit for. He's a lot closer to and more equal to Snorpy. Snorpy doesn't have to spend and sacrifice every fiber of his being to the bugsnax to protect who he loves.

That being said, who he is has nothing to do with his character arc. He's Snorpy, he's a nerd, he is an engineer. None of this is brought into question. Floofty's very status of "grumpus" is called into question through their experiments. (on an esoteric level. kinda. bugsnax are weird.)

What they share is their interactions with other grumpuses and how important actually letting themselves connect with others is... but that's something Everyone shares at least a little.

How does this relate to transgender headcanons? Floofty's arc features their identity very heavily, and calling the identity of the self into question is extremely transgender. Sometimes the definition of transgender. At the very least, a part of the process. (everyone is different)

That's why I think Shelda, Chandlo, and Wiggle are so popular for trans headcanons despite not necessarily doing anything outside their gender's norms. Their arcs heavily have to do with who they are and how their actions reflect that. Gramble and Triffany have a little bit of this but I can't rule out their gender non-comformity as the reason.

Of course, everyone is transgender to at least one person in the fandom because there's nothing proving anyone is cis and this fandom is very very queer.

🧪💠 03: How NOT to Set the Lab on Fire: A Guide from Serena Stark (Yes, I’m Qualified) 🧪💠

Okay, people (looking at you Emma), listen up. I know I’m probably the last person you’d want advice from on this—after all, my track record with fire might as well be the reason Tony invested in sprinklers—but here we are.

Step 1: Know Your Materials.

Science is fun (at least until you create a chemical reaction that’s a little too enthusiastic). Before you mix anything, READ the damn labels. If it says “flammable,” don’t make it your next big project. Just trust me on this one. The explosion you don’t want is always one click away from your experiments.

Step 2: Respect the equipment.

Seriously, the lab isn’t a free-for-all. If you accidentally start poking around with the plasma torch, or somehow get distracted by a weird glowing thing (I've been there), you’re gonna regret it. So, when the manual says, “Don’t touch this unless you’re qualified,” just—take the hint. Trust me, the fire extinguisher will not be your best friend in this situation.

Step 3: Don’t mix random chemicals.

You think you’re Tony Stark, just tossing together whatever looks shiny? Nah, fam. You’re not a genius inventor (yet), so don’t try to make your own “super-cool new element” by mixing everything on the shelf. You will regret it when you’re trying to figure out how the whole lab ended up in a 10-foot radius of flame.

Step 4: Understand the difference between ‘testing’ and ‘blowing up the lab’.

I get it, you’re curious. But there’s a fine line between running an experiment and deciding the best way to cook your lunch via combustion. And trust me, the fire alarm doesn’t care if you were just “experimenting with the fusion reactor again.”

Step 5: Stop assuming things will be fine.

Just because it “looks safe” doesn’t mean it is safe. I know you’ve got this confidence thing down (I mean, you are a Stark), but if the metal's sizzling or something’s starting to smell like burnt toast, immediately back off. It’s not a sign to proceed. Trust me, I learned the hard way.

Step 6: Have a fire extinguisher, and know how to use it.

I get it, Emma, you’re all about the “cutting-edge tech” and “sophisticated gadgets,” but when it comes to fire, old school is where it’s at. Fire extinguisher should be your first line of defense. And for the love of all that is holy, make sure you know how to use it without just flailing around like I do when I panic. Fire extinguishers do not respond to panic. Trust me.

Step 7: Don’t Use My Lab for Experimenting.

Listen, I’m all for creativity and innovation, but if you’re going to keep setting the place on fire, maybe find a different lab. If I come in and smell burning plastic one more time, I swear, I’ll send Jeff after you. And, spoiler alert: He’s not gonna be happy either.

Step 8: Don’t Get Fancy with the Electricity.

Emma. Sweetheart. I know you're a Stark prodigy—but don’t go playing electrical wizard with a bunch of wires and a half-baked idea. You don’t need to turn the lab into a lightning storm just to impress the machines. Trust me, I’ve been there, and it never ends well. Remember when I electrified the fridge just trying to get ice cream? Yeah. That was a fun day for the lab.

Step 9: If all else fails, RUN.

Sometimes, despite all your best efforts, things catch fire. If that happens—step one is to not panic, and step two is to make sure you're getting out safely. The lab might be the birthplace of genius, but it’s also where disasters are born. So get the heck out, and leave the rest to the actual professionals (read: Tony, Pepper, someone who's not me).

Step 10: Learn from Your Mistakes (and Mine).

Let’s be real for a second. I’ve blown up more labs than I can count. (That’s a very Tony Stark trait I inherited, for sure.) But here’s the thing—every time I’ve learned from my epic fails, and so should you. So, next time you almost set off a chain reaction of fiery chaos, take a deep breath, stop, and think about your actions before everything around you turns into Crispy City again.

In Conclusion:

Listen, Emma, I know you’re a Stark, and burning things is kind of in our blood (right along with the whole “blow up the universe” vibe), but let’s try to keep it to a minimum, okay? You don’t need to give everyone a free pyro show.

But trust me, we’re not all Tony Stark, and sometimes, we don’t get to “just invent our way out of it” when things go wrong.

If I can do it, you can do it. And if you do it, I won’t need to make another post about setting the lab on fire.

[sirfrogsworth]

The number of items you qualify for determines which circle of Hell you will end up in.

Here is a handy guide to see who you will be partying with in The Inferno.

First Circle: Limbo or "Heaven Lite."

Were you a decent person but forgot to get baptized? Welcome to Meh-ven. Not quite as good as Heaven, but you still get to live in a neat castle.

Second Circle: Lust or "Too horny for Heaven."

This circle is for those who banged their way through life. You are punished by being blown violently back and forth by strong winds, preventing you from finding peace and rest.

So, basically Chicago.

Third Circle: Gluttony or "You should have ordered a salad instead of that Bloomin' Onion."

I'm pretty sure this is the fat shaming Hell. You are overseen by a giant worm monster named Cerberus and placed into a large slushie machine. You must lie in frozen slush for eternity thinking about all of those hot dog eating contests you won.

Fourth Circle: Greed or "What? I gave $20 to the Red Cross every year!"

You are overseen by Pluto, the dog of Mickey Mouse. Or maybe the demoted dwarf planet. I honestly did not do enough research to be sure. Circle 4 is divided into people who spent too much and people who hoarded too much. They must push giant boulders at each other in a game of eternal rock jousting.

Fifth Circle: Anger or...

The angry must join a fight club and brawl each other atop the River Styx.

The grumpy must gurgle beneath the pugilists--submerged forever in that same river.

Sixth Circle: Heresy or "Ya know, I'm pretty sure the Earth revolves around the Sun. Hey, why is this priest placing me in shackles? It's just science, bro!"

Did you go against the Church? Well, for that they just straight up set you on fire. Not the most creative damnation, but I'm sure all of the flaming souls look neat from a spectator's point of view.

Seventh Circle: Violence or "Apparently, these things are all the same amount of bad... murder, suicide, and booty sex."

This circle is divided into three other circles. Which means there are 12 total circles. Which is confusing, but whatever.

In sub-circle 7a, you have the murderers. They are submerged in a river of blood that is also on fire.

Is blood flammable? Did Dante even try to set blood on fire before writing this? I'm thinking, no. YOU ARE TESTING MY SUSPENSION OF DISBELIEF, DANTE.

In sub-circle 7b, you have people who have taken their own life. These folks are turned into shrubbery. Once in your final shrub form, this handsome harpy gal slowly eats you for eternity.

In sub-circle 7c, you have all of the anal fornicators. If you ever stuck it in a butt or had it stuck in your butt, you get to spend your afterlife in a desert of burning sand. And it is raining. So it is one of those rare rainy deserts I guess. Oh, but the rain is on fire.

WHY ARE SO MANY NON-FLAMMABLE THINGS ON FIRE, DANTE?

Eighth Circle: Fraud or "Is fraud really worse than murder?"

I'm going to be straight with you.

The eighth circle is a hot mess.

I'm pretty sure Dante was getting tired of creating new circles for every bad person, so he made a catchall for the villains that didn't quite fit into the previous circles and sub-circles. Instead of creating 10 sub-circles for the 8th circle, he decided to just throw everyone into their own hell ditch. These ditches are called Bolgias.

And now a Top Ten List from the home office in Wahoo, Nebraska.

Top ten types of people stuck in an eternal Bolgia ditch in the 8th circle of hell.

10. Falsifiers such as counterfeiters and wellness gurus. 9. Divisive individuals such as Fox News pundits and Chris Pratt. 8. Advisors such as self help authors and life coaches. 7. Thieves such as whoever created overdraft fees. 6. Hypocrites such as rich Pro-Lifers who have paid for several abortions for their mistresses. 5. Corrupt politicians such as (the list exceeded this post's maximum word count). 4. Wizards!

3. People who purchase pardons like pretty much anyone associated with Donald Trump. 2. Flatterers such as pick up artists and old ladies who tell me I am handsome in the grocery store. 1. Seducers such as people who have cake and want sex and are like, "Would you like some tasty cake in exchange for sex?"

Look, seduction is in the eye of the beholder and all I'm saying is cake would probably work on me.

Circle Nine: Treachery or "You were my brother, Anakin! I loved you!"

Okay, so the 9th circle has 4 rounds.

Which sound an awful lot like circles.

Which brings us to 16 circles in the 9 circles of Hell.

I'm wondering if Dante named the book before he wrote it and everything was done with permanent ink so he couldn't change it.

The 9th circle has 4 frozen circles rounds, each dedicated to notorious traitors. Like a tribute to their epic level of sinfulness.

First up you have the Cain round. He was the first person to ever have a little brother and no one told him you can't just kill the little shit. People in the Cain round are encased up to the base of the neck, so they can still look around and stuff.

The second round is dedicated to Antenor. He was a Trojan. In reality, he negotiated peace with the Greeks. In myth, he opened the city gates and let the Greeks in so they could murder everyone. He was spared because he painted his house with panther blood.

"Panther Blood... 60% of the time it works *every* time." --Antenor

People here are encased to the top of the neck, so they are looking one direction forever.

Coming in round three we have Ptolemy. He didn't care much for his father-in-law, Simon Maccabaeus. So he invited Simon and his sons to a fancy banquet and Red Wedding'd the shit out of them. Ptolemy rounders are encased face-up in the ice just below eye level. That way, whenever they cry for being damned, their tears will freeze over. Over time those frozen tears create an ice visor that takes away the ability to weep ever again. And I'm guessing everything is real blurry too.

Round four is dedicated to the most infamous betrayer of all time. That's right, my favorite character in JC Superstar... Judas Iscariot.

Judas rounders are completely encased in ice. Permanently frozen and immobile with their bodies in every conceivable distorted and twisted position. Chances are, they have too much Heaven on their minds.

And in the very center of the nine-ish 16 circles of Hell, you have Satan himself. The fallen angel, Lucifer.

The story, as I like to imagine it, goes like this...

Lucifer was shooting the shit with the other angels and was all, "I could probably take God, right? He's not so tough."

And since a utopian existence is actually pretty boring and without drama, the other angels responded, "Absolutely! You've been working out and look totally jacked. You got this, dude." All while trying to hold in their laughter.

ANGEL PRANKS!

Lucifer then challenges God and gets instantly Thanos snap'd into a frozen lake. Lucifer sulks for all eternity wondering why those other angels told him he could whip God's metaphorical noncorporeal ass.

Satan is depicted as a hideous three-headed beast frozen up to his waist. He has six bat-like wings that flap and create a chilling breeze that keeps the ice frozen. Literally a hell of his own making. In each of Lucifer's mouths is a famous traitor being forever gnawed. History's most famous collective stabbers, Brutus and Cassius are being chewed in the left and right heads. And Judas is stuck in the viscous center maw while getting the world's worst backscratch from Satan's claws.

But wait, it gets racist!

Each devil head is a different color... Red for Europeans. Yellow for Asians. And black for Africans.

Dante, you little shit.

Alright folks, it is time to add up your totals. Which circle or sub-circle of Hell are you going to party in for eternity?

I'll do mine.

I am slightly homo for Chris Evans when he uses his biceps to curl a helicopter. I want him to hug me because I think he probably smells nice.

I do consider myself a feminist because I watched too many woke Disney films and I was indoctrinated by public schools.

I once ran out of RAM because I had too many tabs open in Chrome. I'm not sure if that qualifies me as a "porn freak" but I'm going to count it.

I smoked pot twice. The first time it made me feel like my head was full of bees and then I passed out for 12 hours. The second time I only inhaled once... and my head filled with bees and I passed out for 12 hours. Counting it.

When I was 18 my church's youth counselor matter-of-factly stated that my best friend was going to Hell. I thought, "That's silly, he's just a theater nerd who wore a floofy shirt and a Phantom of the Opera cape to school on multiple occasions. He's harmless and religion is dumb." So a big check for atheist.

I idolize my bestie Katrina because she is very good a puns. Is that worthy of idolization? Probably not. But I stand by it regardless.

And as far as masturbation goes... again, I ran out of RAM for having too many tabs open in Chrome.

I think I qualify for the seventh circle of Hell. I think I am going to engage in some mild thuggery so I can hang out in 7b as a nice shrub getting eaten by a harpy.

I realize there are only 12 options and 16 possible circles. So I have decided you may use a yoga pants multiplier.

1x if they are too tight but you went through tremendous effort to put them on so you are just going with it. 1x if they were acquired from an MLM mom on Facebook. 1x if they make that booty pop. 1x if they contain a pattern with as many non-complimentary colors as possible.

Welp. I put way too much effort into this.

I guess I'll see you all in Hell!

[whataperfectwasteoftime]

I was just hit with a random memory from high school where we were all assigned a group project in physics to create a Rube Goldberg machine to make a peanut butter jelly sandwich.

And my dad, who was at all times very excited about me doing science, had the brilliant idea that we could burn a rope using the chemical reaction between potassium permanganate and glycerin. As one does. My dad was Very Normal and so am I.

Always one to do the Absolute Most, I immediately thought it was the most perfect solution ever--I mean, no one else would think of using flammable chemicals that your dad ordered online in two thousand fucking five, and everyone would be SO impressed.

My physics teacher was not impressed.

Her opinion of me, a straight-A student with zero social skills with the exceptions of sarcasm and smug pedantry, was already tenuous at best, and when I turned in our blueprints for the machine and she saw the definitely-not-a-fire-hazard potassium permanganate, she was skeptical. Made me bring in my materials, which she then tested under a flame hood in the chemistry lab with all the distrust of a teacher whose weird little goth nerd student brought in a mysterious, flammable substance.

The reaction gave off a healthy amount of smoke, and my pyromaniac dad's brilliant idea was, unfortunately, not approved for use inside of a classroom.

🧠 and 😭 for the snippet asks hit me with your car

Snippet Asks

[revs engine]

🧠 share a snippet where the character realizes something important

highkey popped off with this sequence but also foxy figuring out Something's Fishy About Victor's Death before frankie is [chef's kiss]

“Dammit,” he hisses. “Damn her. Damn whatever rogue process decided to give me feelings.” The static-touched poof of his tail swings into his peripheral vision as it twitches with his growing discontent, and he glances up. The clouds are so dark they’ve turned day into night, and that’s just what he needs, isn’t it? A nightmarish storm roiling above him to match his mood.

He doesn’t have follicles, he knows he’s just fabric over plastic and silicone and metal, so it gives him pause when he can feel more of his fur standing up; it tingles across his synthetic flesh like the first sip of a fresh soft drink, all carbonated fizz dancing up and down his body. If he was in a better mood, maybe he’d even enjoy it, pop open his chest plate and see if he could guide the pleasurable sting to his wires. But he’s not, and he takes the frustration of it out on a nearby trash can with a rough kick. “And damn the stupid.” He kicks it again. “Fuckin’.” And again. “Rain!” And again.

Light and static render him blind, and it’s like the sky cracks open another can of soda, but much louder, like a gunshot in the night, like a skyscraper humbled, collapsing to its knees in surrender to the small, insignificant thing that creates all other things far more significant than itself.

There is no god to a machine, only man, but the gods of men still like to make themselves known, prove their point that man is not the god of this world by far by kicking man’s silly little creations around.

Foxy chokes like only a machine can as his fans seize all of a sudden — one hell of a lightning strike, he thinks for a moment, and then he can no longer think at all. Burning, tarry smoke seeps through his filter and sits there, festering, searing, and he’s unable to blow it back out, to move his arms to open his chest, and like the skyscraper humbled, he too collapses to his knees in surrender to a force even man can’t control. For all his great significance, there are still things far greater.

There is no god to a machine, but there is to this one, specifically, and if he can just get his phone out of his pocket, he can test his faith that she won’t leave him for dead.

NO SERVICE.

Well played, Mother Nature.

A few of his sensors manage to reboot and he can finally toss the cigarette away; it skitters across the ground like a rock skimming the surface of a lake, sparking instead of splashing and finally comes to rest in the pool of coolant kit left behind.

And ignites.

He has no choice but to gaze into the flames as the rest of his body tries to come back online.

CAUSE DETERMINATION: ACCIDENTAL

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF CAUSE: Suspected heat emissions or sparks from welding equipment igniting open container of coolant placed too close to workbench. All other potential fire causes have been eliminated.

Foxy can’t help but to think of the tiny case file he shouldn’t have pried into, but did anyway. Was this really how Victor went? he wonders as he watches the fire creep closer. Another thought slips through behind the first before he can shut the door on it. This was the last memory Frankie had of her childhood. He flinches when it reaches the edge — and stops. It doesn’t explode. It doesn’t spread.

A strong gust of wind blows an old rug off the metal fence blocking the end of the alley. The fire dies beneath it.

Victor wasn’t a drunk. He wasn’t careless. He loved his kid more than anything, and he would have known how to put the fire out, if he somehow fucked up enough to have something flammable near him while working with anything that could create sparks. A cheerful ding precedes the release of his body from the safety paralysis and he yanks his phone from his pocket to tell her she’s right, something is going on—

NO SERVICE.

“Fuck!” he snarls, and it comes out halfway as a sob, and he hates that tiny sliver of vulnerability even more than the lack of service and the impending rain that decides, in that moment, to no longer settle for ‘impending’.

😭 share a snippet that will break our hearts

[cracks knuckles]

She wants to push, but she holds her tongue. If he can extend her the courtesy of leaving a few of her stones unturned, she can leave a few of his where they are, even if they’re in the way. She covers the stone with a blanket and changes the subject, like it was never there. “Your turn to ask me one.”

Monty raises a brow. “That how we’re doin’ it?” Frankie shrugs. “Arright, then. Why’s it called an… illegal decommissionin’, or whatever? Ain’t it still murder?”

Frankie desperately wants to knock the stone from his hands and demand he pick a different one, and when she meets his eyes to silently plead him to put it down, what she finds there isn’t antagonistic, or accusatory, or even judgmental. It’s just a question, a discussion, nothing more. “I–” Her voice catches. It would be easier if it was a fight. She doesn’t know what to do with the diatribe she’s been spoonfed her entire life in any other context but a passionate screaming match, because that’s what it’s always been.

He caps the lacquer and releases her foot. “Do you think we’re alive, Frankie?”

She desperately wants to hide under the covers until the big monster with his big questions far scarier than any teeth or claws goes away. “I don’t… I don’t know anymore.” She averts her eyes, but he cups his hands under her chin and moves closer. “I thought. I thought I knew, I thought I had everything figured out, droids were just droids, AI was AI until it comes untethered, and then it’s dangerous, because it’s–”

“‘Cause you can’t control us,” he finishes for her. “Is Perry dangerous?”

“No, but–”

“Is Chica?”

“I guess not–”

“Foxy?”

“That’s not fair, he–”

“Me?”

Frankie’s heart stops. “Monty–”

The heartbreak clearly etched on his face hurts worse than if he would have just punched her for not having a direct answer. She knows what to do with that. She can punch back, but she can’t break her own heart back at him.

She doesn’t have any right to.

Frankie tries to pull back, but he doesn’t let her go. Monty slides his legs under hers and lifts his knees to slide her into his lap, and it’s that undeserved softness that finally shatters her. “I’m sorry,” she croaks. “I’m so, so fucking sorry.”

“What are you sorry for, peaches?”

The kid gloves with which he’s handling her aren’t soothing at all, not with the roiling storm of self-loathing and disgust raining acid on her already frayed nerves, and it only serves to make her more incoherent until she finally finds her breath again. “I’m just… you and Foxy and Perry and Bonnie and all the rest, you all feel so… human,” she hiccups. “And my whole life I’ve had myself convinced I treated Perry better than everyone else treats droids, but that’s just fucking it, isn’t it? I’m not. I’m still not treating her like I would Sawyer or Russo and she’s been there for me since the beginning, but—”

“But we’re not human, Frankie.”

Her confusion goes up like a brick wall and inertia carries her right into it. “I don’t understand. Bonnie said Dad treated you like humans.”

“He treated us like people, sugarplum. Not humans, ‘cause we aren’t, an’ maybe sometimes I get a lil—”

“Jealous?”

“—sad.” The soft, warm sigh in her damp hair makes her feel like a dick. “I get sad, Frankie, ‘cause one day—” His voice cracks, and he doesn’t have anything to sniffle, but he sniffles regardless. Monty takes another deep breath. “You’re gonna get older, you’re gonna find somebody that can grow old with you, and then you’re gonna die. Or there could be an accident, or somebody’s gonna target you for bein’ a detective, an’ you’re gonna die, an’ I’m still gonna be here, an’ I don’t know what to do with that, ‘cause I’m not human, Frankie.”

She lets him lift her chin, though not without a fight, and the light breeze from the fan above them chills the tears on her cheeks. Her skin feels tight where they’ve dried into salt trails.

It’s okay, you know.

“But it don’t mean I’m not a person.”

That you don’t think of us as people yet.

Before, she questioned the confidence Foxy poured into that ‘yet’.

Now she understands it.

Preventing the Silent Threat: How to Stop Short Circuits in Lithium Battery Manufacturing

The impressive energy density and superior performance of lithium batteries have made them the backbone of modern energy storage solutions. However, their electrochemical nature presents a hidden danger — the risk of short circuits, which can trigger thermal runaway, fires, or even explosions.

To maintain the highest standards of safety and reliability, it's vital to understand the causes of short circuits in lithium battery manufacturing and adopt effective preventive measures throughout the battery production process.

Causes of Short Circuits in Lithium Battery Manufacturing

Electrolyte Leakage The electrolyte is flammable and highly reactive. Inadequate sealing during lithium battery pack assembly or poor-quality materials can cause leakage, creating conductive pathways and leading to internal short circuits.

Damaged Electrode Materials Mishandling during battery cell making machine operations or contamination by metallic particles can cause sharp edges or burrs to puncture the separator, forming internal conductive bridges.

Separator Damage The separator, a critical layer between the electrodes, can be compromised due to poor handling, low-quality materials, or the presence of foreign particles. Once damaged, it allows anode and cathode contact, resulting in a short circuit.

Electrode Contact with External Metal Poor battery shell design or physical damage during production can lead to the electrodes touching the external casing, creating external short circuits.

Charging Malfunctions Using low-quality chargers, overcharging, or improper charging practices can cause electrical anomalies that trigger short circuits during the charging process.

Transit Damage Improper packaging and careless handling during transportation can physically damage battery components, leading to internal short circuits before the battery is ever used.

Preventive Measures for Short Circuits in Battery Manufacturing

Reliable Sealing and Electrolyte Containment Use high-quality sealing materials and perform leak testing on every cell. Select electrolyte compositions that are non-corrosive and thermally stable.

Maintaining Electrode Integrity Ensure strict quality control to avoid impurities, and handle electrode foils carefully to prevent mechanical damage.

High-Quality Separators Choose strong separator materials with excellent mechanical strength and stability. Inspect thoroughly before assembly.

Battery Shell Design and Insulation Select insulating materials and create a robust battery shell structure to prevent external short circuits.

https://jpcdn.it/img/r/602/394/ac0575bb295354c6cbfea53ec4fbf2ab.jpg

Safe Charging Practices Use certified chargers, educate users about proper charging, and integrate battery management systems (BMS) to prevent overcharging.

Secure Packaging for Transit Use protective transport packaging, label clearly, and train handlers to reduce the risk of physical damage.

Conclusion

Ensuring safety in lithium battery production goes beyond quality control — it's a proactive commitment to excellence. Manufacturers can reduce risks by strengthening quality control, using premium materials, optimizing production processes, and safeguarding batteries throughout their lifecycle. With these strategies, we can build trust in battery-making machine technologies and power a safer, sustainable future.
