The end of an era yesterday, the train I first worked alone, and now I’ve worked for the final time… the class 455. Was an emotional morning with a Cobham, and Woking semi fast on my favourite service, to close out my run on these! Icing on the cake having both a /7 and /8.

What a complete doofus. Richard Nixon suffered no punishment besides resigning from office and enjoying the benefits of being a former president and getting a full pardon. If you have to sit here 50 years later effectively going “well technically”, no he wasn’t held accountable.

I don’t think I’m being alarmist. If anything, I worry that we’ve become so inured to Trump’s madness that we’re not alarmist enough.
Trump must be removed from office as soon as possible. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-real-threat-of-trumps-madness

I just gave my 20yo a rundown of the day's news, and he said, "It's all so dumb, it's hard to take seriously and so it's hard to fight. We'd be better at fighting smarter authoritarians!"
"We'd be better at fighting smarter authoritarians" is going to stick with me.
