why do they include green flavour sweets. I'm sorry nobody likes the taste of green

the word "feel" in this post is a vampire so you can't see it

seeing "lest we forget" everywhere always feels weird. like, forget what? the key imagery is apparently "a Poppy" and "a silhouette of someone".

electric trains can be a lot faster, have far better acceleration, far more comfort etc than diesel ones. in this operation its kind of impressive that the train only suffered minor front end damage at an 80mph collision and then was pulled away within a day. but no. pathetic whining takes priority

there was a derailment at shap summit yesterday due to a landslip after heavy rain (everyone fine). and then on a photo of a diesel locomotive hauling away the electric train lol. this shit is everywhere

You've really hit the nail on the head there

no the comments about rats and gulls are just people being snobby dickheads. yeah grey squirrels are invasive (introduced by rich people to look fancy on their estates) and Scotland has most of the UK population of the native red squirrels

for the past several years my youtube related videos has been tracking the career of a scrabble player called "nigel". all i know about him is he's some kind of divine figure in the realm of playing scrabble

broadly the big thing was the loss of freight, which was always the real breadwinner. US railways nowadays are awful for passengers but very profitably run for freight. but the advantage over lorries is in the very long container trains, which are hard to run on a passenger network

tara 🏳️‍⚧️ @tarabomp.bsky.social · 2d

it's interesting seeing comments like these. like up until 1948 all british railways were private and before ww2 they collectively made a profit (before ww1 some paid really significant dividends). the rise of cars and trucks were what changed things

it's great, the definitive edition + dlcs go on sale pretty regularly and that gives you tons of single player campaigns. i like how you can slow/speed up the game while playing which helps when there's too much going on
