servo motor slim turnstile barriers also called access swing barrier gate, which comes from the access control system, is one of the crucial components of contemporary entryway and exit control. The door wings are driven by the control system and open and close immediately. The operating mode can be selected through programs settings: As quickly as it is verified that the individual entering is licensed, the door wings open instantly. It closes after a delay, and the hold-up time is adjustable. Common dc brushless glass gates barrier are divided into scissor doors (city flap barrier gates) and swing doors. (1) Scissor doors are typically used in rail transit, and typical scissor doors are primarily used in trains and other places. The door wings extend from the within the box, which can efficiently seal the passage and play the role of gain access to control. In addition, an infrared picking up device is installed inside the door body, which can recognize the purpose of "one person, one card" for individuals to travel through. (2) The swing door appeared later than the scissor door and belongs to the 2nd generation servo motor speed gates barrier. Such servo motor slim The quality of gates doors is that the door wings run in the front and back direction. The operation process is within the human body's line of vision, which is safer. In addition, since the door wings do not require to be withdrawed into the box, The styles of swing doors are more different. Due to the above attributes, swing doors are normally used in banks, corporate structures, high-end office complex, and so on. Anti-trailing function: There is an overall infrared light band detection area in the channel. The switch state can be adjusted by software according to the client's accuracy requirements. The application of the light band to adjust to various requirements prevents the shortcomings of point-type infrared detectors that are quickly polluted and affects the dependability of judgment, and can efficiently evaluate the future. Tag reader who checks out the card. When the system determines that tailgating has occurred, the system will respond based upon the place of the legitimate cardholder returned by the infrared detector. After the door opening signal is sent, there are still some unusual usages that will set off an alarm.

Swing Barrier Turnstile is normally called a slap door in the rail transit industry. Its barrier body (gate pendulum) is in the type of an airplane with a specific location, perpendicular to the ground, and swings through rotation Implement obstructing and release. The products of the blocking body are typically stainless-steel, organic glass, and tempered glass. Some likewise use metal plates wrapped with special flexible products (to lower the damage triggered by hitting pedestrians). Bridge Smart Swing Gate Turnstile The more popular name has actually been acquired from the initial bridge-shaped structure. It consists of a main chassis and two movable swing bars. The swing bars can swing 180 ° or 90 ° to achieve the function of dissuading or releasing. Column Swing Gate Turnstile The appearance of the primary devices is in the kind of a column, which can perform the very same functions as the bridge type Swing Gate Gate. It is defined by lower cost and less space. RS Security Co., Ltd Main Products: door, flap gate, full height turnstile, swing turnstile, hydraulic bollard, road blocker, access control, face recognition, barrier gate and so on. Application of Swing Barrier Gate It is primarily used for passage entrance and exit management. Usually, only people are permitted to travel through, or individuals dragging baggage, and disabled individuals. Thinking about that Swing Turnstile can attain wider channel characteristics than wing gates. A lot of Swing Gate Turnstile passages can be mixed with pedestrians, bikes, mopeds, handicapped cars and other non-motorized cars. component Swing Barrier Gate structural composition: Swing Door Gate consists of chassis, movement, swing arm, control system, infrared sensing unit, It consists of control equipment and other parts. High-end brake Swing Gate Turnstile consists of: chassis, brake movement, control system, infrared sensor, control devices and other parts (high-end brake Swing Gate Turnstile is that it can stop quickly and smoothly, there is no shaking, no mechanical stuck structure, and the swing arm instantly opens after power failure. It fully abides by fire defense requirements).

ranking fire lookouts i visited last week

i didn't expect to see like...any on this trip. most of them snuck up on me LOL and yet we were able to find FIVE of them! who knew all I had to do was go to national forests in a different state? here there are ranked from highest to lowest

1. The Probable Federal Crime

this one was the coolest! i climbed this one! It's 100 ft with a 7'x7' cab up top. It was in service until 1987 but it still serves as a radio repeater. There are several buildings at the bottom, one of which clearly had the sound of machinery behind the door. It had signs of recent maintenance even though it has been decomissioned. It had spectacular views, with no towns or human settlements visible in any direction:

2. Rich Mountain Lookout

I could have broken into this one but I did not. I withheld my desire to commit a crime. My dad mocked me for not crawling under the fence LOL. This one has a proper catwalk and was possibly a live-in one. A whole family lived here in the 20s when it was first built, but this version is a replacement from the 50s, so I have no idea what it looked like before them. It is approximately the height AND style I have been imagining in my AU so I was delighted to see it. It is slightly taller than the one in the Firewatch game, but a remarkably similar design other than being steel instead of wood.

3. Devil's Knob Lookout

Not in good repair at all. Missing the ladder at the bottom and the final flight of stairs. We saw two deer. My dad climbed it anyway because he's an idiot

4. The Occupied State One

we spotted this one from the main road and turned down the next side road to hunt it down. We ended up driving along the wildest road of FANCY vacation houses, mostly still under construction. A few of these houses had the steepest driveways I've ever encountered in my entire life. Eventually we found the correct turn off for the lookout, drove straight past the no trespassing sign with confidence, only to immediately turn around because there was a guy there despite it being the holiday. Later I learned this is one of the few still in operation in the state. Unsure why it might be manned in November since there is a lower risk of wildfire in fall/winter, but it is in operation so maybe that guy was working.

Bonus:

the tire shop pulled this out of our tire the next day after we went poking around the vacation home construction site. miraculously this did not ruin the tire and they didn't charge us for a patch!

5. Supposed Former State Forestry Lookout

This one has basically no workspace up top and I'm interested (mildly suspicious) of its history since it seemed out of the ordinary. Clearly it was used as an observation tower but as a regular, everyday job? unclear

Also, I had to break into this one too. I jumped the fence. This was because the quarter-fed turnstile did not work. It was $1 per person but we put $4 into it and it only started turning once. Then it stopped turning immediately and briefly trapped me in the middle of that metal cage. Fortunately it turns freely in the opposite direction so I could escape and was not, in fact, trapped forever in its bars. Although the moment it stopped did put the fear of God in me a little before I realize I could still get out. Thus I did not feel bad for climbing the fence. We actually overpaid.

Bonus:

devil's head lookout, you are still #1 in my heart

DAY 5362

Jalsa, Mumbai                    Oct 17/18,  2022                  Mon/Tue  1:14 AM

October 18 .. birthday wishes to Ef Prathibha Rajesh .. happiness and love from your Ef .. 🌸🌿

.... and still running on to work ..  !! whoooooaaaaa .. !!

.... yaaaaaaaaaaaaaa hhh !!!

gratitude to the show audience .. ever .. they make the KBC episode ..

the love affection and the grace received each day from the hundreds tgat come as audience on KBC is impossible to limit with alphabets and work constructs .. they are the life of each episode .. they and the contestant ..

ALWAYS .. 

when they cheer, laugh or giggle and applause at your efforts , it just converts the temperament into one of being able to ‘conquer the World’ .. that is how important it is to be ever thankful to them that take their valuable time out for us at the KBC counter .. may they live long and be in the arms of glory and deliverance .. for they be the masters the guiders and the accomplishers of each DAY at the turnstiles !!!!

Truly .. for me they are the movers of the temperament of each that work at the KBC counter .. they deflate, I deflate .. they shine I shine .. 

Spending some time with them after each show endeth, is a blessing for me .. the details they come out with , is so disarming and true in spirit and deed .. !

Apologies , my ☝🏽☝🏽 dear audience .. when you react, my act gathers strength and immense appreciation .. but when I make error, the treatment you mete out to various other instituters is phenomenal ..

may the spirit of this support be alive all the while ..

the other aspect of existence for me at least, is understanding .. to understand the functioning of wares in a boarding school is understanding .. err , not always in School, but in general too ..

I think the School came up because we were discussing the daily routines of a day with the audience on show .. and comparing that with what transpires in the boarding and in the portals of KBC ..

we here in the cities take the  matter up often enough, through fast, a prayer .. until the moon peers through the horizon - always hidden behind the unexpected clouds .. and break their fasting to emerge the best among all that has, to be organised , cheer to the Moon (.. simhaaliye and still play the best cricket to defeat the unknown .. which according to your instincts , we would never a jib soon .. soon shall find out ..) .. I have no idea how these words came out and what they mean .. its hallucinating over the factor of lack of sleep and the brain cells continuing to work despite .. or inspite .. whatever !

JUNK .. JUNKED .. !!

so understanding is where we left off .. understanding .. tough feel .. never can be in situation of complete understanding, with any other .. what you create for instance can never be understood in its entirety by any other, no matter what !

they .. the others .. feel they know .. feel they understand and wish to be tried out .. but no .. they never shall .. no matter how close the understanding relationship is .. 

and so the state of the understanding is best with the ‘ME’ .. it cannot be replicated, nor can it be given in the same colour, to another .. 

and that is how it should ever remain .. 

I can share an experience with another and expect that they experience the same .. NAAAAHHHH .. they will never .. you will be the best judge and communicator .. but no matter how great your communication brilliance, the ‘other’ shall ever remain the ‘other’  ..

AND ..

why endeavour to share .. why ..

it is your feel .. why must it be felt by any other .. for what reason .. 

a million questions and answers floating in the air and space .. and no respectful response .. 

just as well ..

GN .. my love ❤️❤️❤️ ..

11 and blupjeans? :3

I think I only know like, 2 songs on here, and this is one of them, and Hadestown blupjeans is so <3 <3 <3 lol

from this prompt list!!

Barry clutches his suitcase close to him and hustles down the escalator much to the chagrin of the other people standing nicely off to the right, holding the handrail, and otherwise following all kinds of escalator protocol. He usually has no qualms with waiting patiently but this escalator is comically long and he’s in a hurry.

He glances at his wrist and shakes his head because of course he isn’t wearing a watch, he hasn’t worn a watch since his prized Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles digital watch that played the theme song every hour on the hour got lost in the community pool when he was fifteen. That watch isn’t there to help him but the all too familiar metallic hissing and clanging of the metro elucidates a rough approximation of the time.

He slides the suitcase under the turnstile while launching himself over it, ignoring the stern shouts from the security guard. It takes him an extra moment pick the suitcase off the slippery tiles but then he’s off again taking another escalator steps two at a time only to find his way blocked by a tourist family taking up both sides of the escalator. He anxiously peers over the railing to see the blue line, his blue line slowly chugging away like a sluggish caterpillar of an unnatural size. He looks up at the board only to confirm what he already knows; the next southbound blue line train won’t be coming for another forty minutes due to construction. By that time, his flight will already be leaving without him. He sets his suitcase down in defeat and slumps down to sit upon its worn leather shell. He knows it’s going to be a whole extra day before he gets to see Lup; their time together is always so fleeting as it is with both of them working and going to school full time. This long weekend was supposed to be three uninterrupted days of takeout and not leaving Lup’s apartment.

Of course he had to put in a little overtime at the library today; he’s just such a good worker and never complains! At least that’s what the older women who supervise him say.

He sits and wallows for a few minutes before standing up and going to the mostly empty bank of payphones. He fishes some change out of his pocket and holds the receiver in his hand. He takes a breath before feeding the coins into the slot and dialing Lup’s number. He holds the silvery cord as a kind of lifeline.

“Hello?”

“Lup, hey.”

“Barry! Hey,” A pause. Certainly she’s checking the clocks that hang over her kitchen sink; the blue one on the end set to Barry’s time zone. “Are you at the airport?”

“Marjorie asked me to work a little longer today.”

“Uh-huh.”

“I’m at the metro station right now.”

“Babe, your flight leaves in an hour.” She knows his metro stop is about thirty minutes from the airport. She knows just how tight a time crunch this would be.

“And the next train doesn’t come for another forty minutes.”

A quiet sigh like she’s blowing out a birthday candle for a pillbug. “So you’re going to miss that  flight.”

“I think so.” It’s non-committal. It’s overly hopeful. But he doesn’t want to just dash her hopes.

An extended pause. The only thing that lets Barry know she’s still on the line is Lup’s obnoxiously loud coffeemaker on what is certainly the second pot of the day; probably second of a few, no thanks to Barry. “I’m gonna see what I can do.”

An involuntary laugh escapes his lips; not one dusted in malice but simply steeped in surprise. “What do you mean?”

“I mean that I know a pilot who owes me a favor,” Lup says, her voice muffled in a way that makes Barry certain that there’s a pencil clenched between her teeth while she flips through her bloated and worn address book. “It might be tight but I think there might be a way that I can have your ass in my apartment before tomorrow afternoon.”

Too quickly Barry’s heart is soaring like a hubris-filled teen with waxen wings. “Really?” he breathes.

“I think so. It might be pretty late tonight.”

“How late?”

She makes a noise of displeasure. “2? Maybe 3?”

“Wait for me?”

“I will,” she says warmly. “We can have a big feast and go to bed with our stomachs hurting.”

“As long as I’m with you, nothing sounds better.”

“Call me back in about thirty minutes with what you want from Taste of Thai and I’ll hopefully have an itinerary for you.”

“Will do. Love you.”

“Love you.”

XIV.

Mumbo has joined the game

GoodTimesWithScar: mumbo!

GoodTimesWithScar: Mr. Jumbo!!

GoodTimesWithScar: Just the man I was looking for

Mumbo: What do you want? GoodTimesWithScar: Scarland is missing something very important I think you can help with

Mumbo: OMW

Sneaking around was kind of Grian’s thing. He’s been told by many he was incredibly silent and now that mattered more than ever. He needs to be as quiet as a mouse. Getting caught means . . . well, he doesn't want to really think about it. The sound of rockets overhead pulls him out of his thoughts. 

“Hey Mumbo! Over here!” Scar’s voice startles him, far closer than he thought. 

Okay, is he spying on Mumbo and Scar? Maybe. Possibly. It's going to be worth it. The gnawing paranoia hasn’t gone away and it was about to drive him mad. Something was going on between those two, and he was becoming increasingly convinced it had something to do with him. 

But the hostility he'd seen from Mumbo when he joined wasn't there anymore. Sure, it had been a few days, but now Mumbo smiles softly at him like nothing had ever happened. 

"So, Scarland needs me?" 

Scar waves his cane at the vacant streets and gently flapping banners. "You haven't seen it, have you? Can I give you the grand tour?" Mumbo gestures for him to continue and Scar's off. 

It's kind of incredible how Scar so easily captures attention. His waving arms and grand, blinding smile are entrancing. Grian’s reminded of Last Life, how Scar was able to talk himself into and out of basically any situation. Mumbo follows him dutifully and even Grian from his hiding spot finds himself enraptured as Scar covers every detail. Even with his cane in hand, he moves as if he knows every spare stone on the ground and every plant, easily walking backwards at points to talk directly to Mumbo. He can’t quite hear what they’re saying, but nevertheless it’s interesting just watching. Finally they come to a stop in front of the main gates. They're clearly still under construction, with scaffolding. Here Scar stops, leaning cooly on his cane. 

He's performing, or at least has the air of it. One leg crossed over the other, his hat tilted just to the side, a sly smile on his lips. 

"What's a theme park without turnstiles?" he says, gesturing at the chaos of redstone. 

Mumbo hums. "Is this what you called me for?" 

Scar shrugs, his smile never leaving. "Haven't tried it." Mumbo gives him a look. "You're the redstone expert, you tell me if it works."

As Mumbo approaches the turnstile, Scar shifts and turns to look directly at Grian. Even as Grian freezes, Scar's smile widens and he winks. 

Several things happen in quick succession. 

Mumbo presses the button on top of the turnstile, and then Mumbo is gone, the spinning rods launching him at high speeds into the sky. Scar nearly topples over laughing and Grian can't help himself, he erupts in giggles. There's a yell growing closer, then there's an explosion of items across the stone plaza. 

Mumbo fell from a high place

Scar does collapse at that and Grian joins him, clutching his stomach. They nearly have their laughter contained when Mumbo comes stomping up, gathering his items and shoving them haphazardly in his inventory. His grumbling sends both of them back into fits of laughter. 

"Grian!" Grian's mouth snaps shut, though the corners of his mouth still twitch. "You planned this, didn't you?" 

Scar snorts. "Grian's been spying on us, he had nothing to do with it. I just found out it does that and I wasn’t about to waste the opportunity." Grian flushes, but Scar doesn't look angry, simply pushes himself up to a sitting position and looks at Mumbo. "Okay but seriously, can you fix it?" 

"Can I fix it," Mumbo grumbles. He pulls off his suit jacket and carefully rolls his sleeves up. Grian’s eyes linger on the freshly exposed skin and his blush only deepens when he catches Scar looking as well. 

Grian coughs a bit and tries to smooth his feathers down. 

Scar leans on his cane with both hands, his attention turning to Grian. "What WERE you doing spying on us?" 

"I wasn't spying—" 

"You were there since Mumbo got here." The clinking of tools stops, as does Grian's heart. "You're not exactly quiet, G. And I'm not exactly dull." Scar shrugs a bit, "You're off your game, man. I could hear you coming from a mile away. Don't tell me you got into Doc's secret stuff."

Grian wrinkles his nose. "God no, not this early into the season."

"It's like three months into the season."

"It is?!" 

Scar nods. 

"Is it good this season?" 

"He's experimenting with watermelon."

"Ohhhh, I'll have to pick some up."

"Back on topic, Gri," Scar says with a wry smile, one that makes Grian want to swear. "You were spying, why?" 

Grian goes silent, which is as good as a confession. He could lie, but there's something in the back of his head that tells him Scar will know. He can't very well say the truth either. Half-truths it is. 

"You two have been acting really weird lately," he says. Scar arches an eyebrow but Grian beats him to the punch. "Not the usual weird. Weird about me." 

Scar hums, his face carefully neutral. "What makes you say that?" 

"The fact that you and Mumbo have been acting like a pair of feral cats fighting over one can of tuna, except now you're fine?" 

"We're good, Grian," Scar says, with the believability of any of his schemes, which is to say none. Grian scowls. 

"Mumbo?" 

The redstoner pops his head up from his burrow, his hair askew and cheeks dusted with redstone and grit. "We're fine, G."

"I don't believe that for a second." Grian crosses his arms and turns back to face Scar. "The second Mumbo shows up, you act like a kicked puppy for almost a week and being around you two at the same time is unbearable, then all the sudden you're buddy-buddy again? I mean you really expect me—" Grian cuts himself off as a horrifying thought comes to surface at the forefront of his mind. The words are out of his mouth before he can catch them. 

"You two are together."

Mumbo and Scar instantly both go pink. Scar holds up his hands while Mumbo attempts to sink back into his redstone paradise. 

"Not that that's— I'm happy about it—" 

"Grian, no, you've got it all wrong." 

"—I just wish you'd told me."

"Grian, please—" 

"And oh, I'm intruding, I'm so sorry—" 

Grian takes a step back and Scar practically leaps forward, grabbing his wrist and stopping him. 

He expects to feel lashing anger from the Entity, the jolt of losing control, but instead his breaths still and his body relaxes at the touch, his frantic mind whirring to a stop and allowing him to really see Scar. 

Scar, who is looking at him like he's losing him, who looks terrified and still very pink and so familiar. 

"Grian, it's okay we're not . . . That's not a thing." He sighs. "Look, I have a uh . . . Tendency to get jealous, and we'd been spending a lot of time together, and Mumbo coming back, it just kind of." He rubs the back of his neck. "You know your bird instincts? Kind of like that."

Grian's brows scrunch together. "But you're human." Scar smiles at that, wider than he's seen in a long while. 

"Right. Yeah. Humans still have instincts though. Right Mumbo?" 

"Right!" Mumbo says from the bottom of the hole, probably not paying any attention. 

"So. I'm sorry. We really are fine, G, and so are you. The dynamic just changed a bit, yeah?" 

Grian nods slowly, "yeah." 

"You're okay, right?" 

Grian thinks of the nausea that claws up his throat and the constant rush of blood and heartbeats that aren't his but still swim in his ears. He can't. He's too tired for that. "I'm fine," he says instead. 

Scar pulls him forward until they can both see down into Mumbo's temporary lair. Scar sits down cross-legged and Grian does too. Scar's hand backs away from his wrist. Grian catches his breath in his throat, stopping the whine that builds there, but Scar’s arm wraps around his shoulder and pulls him close. 

"Now, let's sit here and listen to Mumbo break his PG-13 rating," Scar says, peering over the lip. 

"Hey!" Mumbo goes to pop up and, as if on cue, hits his head against the underside of the turnstile, letting out a few words that make even Scar blush. Grian bursts into laughter.

[brotherthanatos]

Watching @strange-aeons’ video on Gerard’s Looks™️ and losing my mind because I am going to die on this hill: OFFICE LADY IS A THROWBACK TO BULLETS. SHE’S THE LADY WHO DOESNT WORK HERE ANYMORE. SHE’S THE ANGEL IN SKYLINES AND TURNSTILES. SHE’S THE ZOMBIE IN EARLY SUNSETS OVER MONROEVILLE. I AM VERY HINGED ABOUT THIS.

I always thought those three particularly didn’t fit into the proposed storyline of Bullets, so I feel validated seeing them potentially resurrected (haha). Putting these in order below:

Skylines and Turnstiles:

Fairly straightforward. The narrator is desperately trying to call their partner their angel (going to refer to her as Angel for brevity but I think it’s not her name just a term of endearment). As one can imagine, after the first tower was hit and in the aftermath of the second, there were thousands of people desperately calling loved ones in the area. The sudden influx caused strain and many, many calls fell through.

The narrator is hoping that Angel is okay, but can’t quite reach her. They’re hoping Angel is alive and are repeating that they’ll get through this together even through tragedy. The narrator keeps cycling through emotions: the obvious one is fear/horror, but there is also hope and anger. Something like the stages of grief. They’re hopeful that they can live through this together (ex: and if the world needs something better, let’s give them one more reason!). They’re angry at the event but also irrationally at none of their calls going through as if they’re being ignored, calling her heartless for abandoning them in this moment (that’s if you still have one [a heart] left/inside that cave you call a chest).

They can’t quite accept that Angel might have died, still holding out hope until the end that they’ll get through this together (tell me where we go from here?).

Early Sunsets:

So this one is a very obvious shout-out to Dawn of the Dead, however I think it doubles as, in the narrative I’m constructing, the narrator trying to confront the truth that Angel is dead. They have to reconcile with the fact that the person they have all these memories with is dead now, even just mundane life events they shared together are now tainted by the truth that their loved one, maybe even everyone else around them in that memory, are all dead. It feels to the narrator like a betrayal in a way, as if they themself are the one killing Angel by accepting this. It kills them metaphorically, leaving them empty (does anyone notice/there’s a corpse in this bed?)

I think that final line is ALSO in reference to the short tragedy story a Rose for Emily, in which the plot twist is that the lonely town weirdo, Emily, has spent years sleeping beside the corpse of her husband. Connecting this to Sunsets, the narrator has all of these memories of Angel, this love that they still carry for her, but they’re holding onto it for someone who is gone. Those once happy memories feel so tainted now, like remembering them is sleeping beside her corpse. And it destroys the narrator too leaving them alone and feeling as if they too are dead, just drained and sorrowful with grief.

Cubicles:

Okay Cubicles is one of my favorite MCR songs so I’m going to get REALLY annoying with this one and do an almost line by line lyrical analysis.

It's the tearing sound of love notes

Drowning out these gray-stained windows

The narrator and Angel lost focus and has a consensual workplace relationship worked together. It was a spark in the otherwise dreary office life! But now all those silly love notes are just painful memories and overwhelm the narrator’s mundane office life with grief.

And the view outside is sterile

And I'm only two cubes down

Everything is tense, looking outside isn’t helpful to escape the office because outside is also clinical and emotionless, and while the narrator tries to keep working they can’t help but remember that two cubicles away is now empty.

I'd photocopy all the things that we could be

If you took the time to notice me

Like the professional she is, Angel tried to not show too much PDA in the workplace. I think before, it was a cute in-joke between them that she ignores the narrator at work, and used to be playful ribbing. But now it feels like the memory of her is haunting them.

But you can't now, I don't blame you

And it's not your fault that no one ever does

Angel is gone. And the rest of the office doesn’t really know how to approach their colleague who just lost their partner… it’s easier to just leave them be. Angel can never pay attention to them again, and the rest of the office is either intentionally or worse unintentionally trying not to acknowledge the narrator. It’s too awkward to try to comfort someone they don’t know that personally, so they just don’t.

But you don’t work here anymore

It’s just a vacant 3x4

The narrator tries to approach the situation metaphorically. Saying she’s dead is too much for them, but it is true that she doesn’t work here anymore too. It’s easier to try to trick their brain into thinking she’s just gone because she left the job. But the fact they left her cubicle empty might be more symbolic of the rest of the office grieving too—it’d be disrespectful to touch her belongings and clean out her desk so soon after her passing. So they just leave it. Empty, but still hers. She doesn’t work here anymore is all. But it’s still her cubicle.

And they might fill your place

A temporary stand-in for your face

Ah capitalism! Well she might’ve died, but they got work to do so gotta hire someone new! Potentially this is also the narrator thinking of the prospect of finding a new relationship, but they can’t maintain any for very long.

This happens all the time,

People leave jobs all the time. People die all the time. There are plenty of empty cubicles for some reason or another. The narrator knows that this situation isn’t unique to them, that plenty of people cope, that they need to accept her death. They try to approach it in a detached manner, using passive tense to downplay the event as if that will make it easier for them.

And I can’t help but think I’ll die alone.

Despite trying to reframe the situation, Angel is still gone and the narrator is still forced to deal with that. She’s gone, they can’t maintain new relationships, the world feels like it’s moving on, but they can’t. They don’t think they ever will be able to move on.

So I'll spend my time with strangers

A condition and it's terminal

The narrator feels lost and alone. It feels like no one is beside them now and that’s just how they’ll live until they die (see “can’t help but think I’ll die alone”). At this point the narrator is accepting the “truth” to them that they will die alone.

In this water-cooler romance

As mentioned before, I think Angel was professional and didn’t like too much PDA. But at the water cooler where coworkers chatting is common, she was more relaxed.

And it's coming to a close

The narrator is, slowly, coming to terms with Angel’s absence.

We could be in the park and dancing by a tree

Kicking over blades we see

Or a dark beach with a black view

And pin-pricks in the velvet catch our fall

They could be on dates, but the memory of past dates is more sinister now with the fact Angel is gone. Even those happy memories feel forever tainted (see Early Sunsets).

The song ends with

I know you don’t work here anymore

repeated until it changes to

Sometimes I think I’ll die alone

and then to

I think I’d love to die alone

With this I think the narrator is spiraling with grief and again is just accepting that they’ll die and morbidly hoping it’ll be alone. Depression makes one have weird ideas around death and relationships like thinking that even though having loved ones might make you happy you should push everyone away and die alone, even if that thought terrifies you. The narrator is fully in the throes of that depression and grief.

I think on a grander scale, Angel is not any one person but a metaphor for all victims including the abstract victim of general American innocence/hope. It’s worth noting that before 9/11, the idea of a direct attack on this scale to a major American city was unthinkable. So unthinkable it was proposed as an absurd thought question in fact!* The direct attack on a building in downtown NYC completely destroyed that illusion of safety and changed the landscape of American culture to this day. So I think Angel represents that concept. Reframe everything I said but the narrator is America personified and Angel is pre-9/11 American culture.

*I want to end this post with the last response to this thread pre-9/11 because I think it sums everything up:

Okay, I'm here to ask the tough questions 😉

So how about 8, 17, 31 and 69?!

8. What’s your relationship with constructive criticism and feedback like? do you seek it out? how well do you take it?

It's definitely gotten better as I've both gotten older, read and written more. Whatever I'm writing I always aim for it to be the best that it can be at that moment. I don't think it ever hurt to have someone else give their perspective on your work, but I think it definitely helps having someone you know give you constructive criticism, because you know what they say will be coming from a good place as opposed to 'lol your writing's shit'

17. What is your favourite line you’ve ever written?

arghhhhhh this was very, very hard so I picked a few

'Female racing drivers were apparently like unicorns, and successful female racing drivers were supposedly like blue moons'

'“You and me are sat in a very nice Mercedes company car, and the Formula 1 paddock is that way” Vanessa pointed out of the window, where the turnstile entrance was only just visible in the distance. “You made it Sophie, because you’re a brilliant racing driver. So you and me are going to walk into that paddock together with this press officer person-”

“Richard”

“We’re going to walk in with Richard, with our heads held high. Because that’s what you and me do, okay?”' - Both from LITFL (Re-write)

'They had barely exchanged words at all, mainly because Michael was clearly battling the insurmountable grief of losing her second mother.' - Sister

'After a few moments of staring at the door, Trip looked down at the silver flask and brushed his thumb across the metal as his mind briefly flashed back to the early days of Enterprise’s mission, vowing to never say a bad word about T’Pol ever again.' - Night Life

31. Tell us about one of your characters who’s an absolute joy to write

Richard Wilson from my Life In the Fastlane re-write! He is my most beloved, part of the reason why I decided to completely re-write LITFL was to give Rich the word count he deserved. He's basically the male, British-Asian version of Britta Roseke, and there's one scene with him particular in LITFL that I'm really looking forward to writing!!

(big honourable mention to my girl Sophie Knightsbridge who finally feels like a proper character after goodness knows how many years)

69. How do you write emotional scenes? Do you ever feel what the characters feel?

Emotional scenes (especially negative ones) are definitely my achilles heel. I tend to rely on what I've watched/read in other works to help me write them. As for the second part, absolutely (yay for over autistic over empathy!).

Understanding Turnstile Barrier Gate Prices and Benefits in Bangladesh

Turnstile barrier gates are increasingly becoming popular in Bangladesh as an effective solution for managing access control in public and private spaces. These gates provide a streamlined method for controlling the flow of people in places like offices, airports, stadiums, metro stations, and factories. As the demand for enhanced security and efficient crowd management continues to grow, the need for advanced access control systems like turnstile barriers is on the rise.

This guide aims to provide an in-depth understanding of turnstile barrier gates in Bangladesh, including their types, features, pricing, and benefits. Whether you're a facility manager looking to improve security or a business owner seeking better crowd control, this article will help you make an informed decision.

What is a Turnstile Barrier Gate?

A turnstile barrier gate is a type of access control gate that allows one person to pass through at a time. It ensures that only authorized individuals can enter a restricted area. These gates can be mechanical, semi-automatic, or fully automatic, depending on the type of access control system they are integrated with. Turnstile barriers are often equipped with card readers, biometric scanners, or ticket systems to manage access.

Types of Turnstile Barrier Gates

Tripod Turnstile GateThe tripod turnstile is one of the most common types of barrier gates. It features three rotating arms that allow one person to pass at a time. These gates are durable, space-efficient, and commonly used in stadiums, factories, and offices. Tripod turnstiles can be integrated with various access control systems, such as RFID card readers or fingerprint scanners.

Full-Height Turnstile GateFull-height turnstile gates offer maximum security by creating a physical barrier that extends from floor to ceiling. These gates are often used in high-security areas such as prisons, government buildings, and industrial sites. They are highly effective in preventing unauthorized access, as they are impossible to jump over or bypass.

Optical Turnstile GateOptical turnstiles use sensors and barriers made of glass or other materials to allow access. They are aesthetically pleasing and provide fast, efficient entry for large volumes of people. These gates are commonly used in corporate offices, airports, and metro stations, where both security and aesthetics are important.

Speed Gate TurnstileSpeed gates are designed for areas that require fast access control. They use sliding or swinging barriers to quickly open and close after verifying an individual’s credentials. These gates are popular in high-traffic areas like airports, corporate headquarters, and public transportation hubs.

Swing Gate TurnstileSwing gate turnstiles feature a swinging arm or barrier that opens when access is granted. These gates are often used in conjunction with other types of turnstiles to allow access for people with disabilities or those carrying large items. They are also widely used in office buildings and residential complexes.

Factors Affecting the Price of Turnstile Barrier Gates in Bangladesh

Type and DesignThe price of a turnstile barrier gate varies significantly based on its type and design. Basic tripod turnstiles are more affordable, whereas full-height and optical turnstiles tend to be more expensive due to their advanced features and enhanced security capabilities. Speed gates and optical turnstiles, which are often integrated with sophisticated sensors and biometric systems, usually come with a higher price tag.

Material QualityTurnstile barriers are constructed from materials such as stainless steel, glass, or aluminum. The durability, corrosion resistance, and aesthetic appeal of the materials used can impact the cost. Stainless steel, for instance, is commonly used for outdoor turnstiles due to its weather-resistant properties, but it may increase the overall price.

Technology IntegrationThe integration of advanced technologies, such as biometric authentication, RFID card readers, or facial recognition systems, significantly influences the price of turnstile gates. While basic turnstiles equipped with card readers are relatively affordable, systems that incorporate cutting-edge biometric features or sophisticated access control software can be considerably more expensive.

Installation and MaintenanceThe installation process and ongoing maintenance requirements can also affect the overall cost. Complex systems like full-height or speed gates require professional installation, which can add to the expense. Additionally, regular maintenance, such as software updates or mechanical part replacements, should be considered in the long-term cost.

Brand and WarrantyAs with any product, the brand and warranty play a significant role in pricing. Well-established international brands with a proven track record tend to charge higher prices, but they offer better reliability, customer support, and warranty options. Local brands or lesser-known manufacturers may offer more affordable options, though they may lack extensive after-sales services or long-term warranties.
