Hi! You may also recognize me as highconcept or thathephguy, depending on where you know me from. I'm an older mixed-race intersex+trans guy. I play FFXIV+World of Warcraft, and a couple of other games less regularly. While I'm mostly an NPC player, I love seeing others' OCs, so please show me them!

If I hit on average five DT trains a day, I should get my A-rank achievement in just over a month. I think that's a reasonable rate of progress!

I need you guys to know that this is by Dovetail Games, who are *the* train autism game people. Pixel-perfect recreations of actual rail routes and the trains that operate on them from around the world, right down to timetables and traffic simulations. Custom vehicle dynamics engine.
The developers behind Train Simulator and about seven different Train World Sim games are making a Thomas the Fucking Tank Engine game and I am so "ON BOARD," as it were
Look at the goddamn first-person driver's compartment view. YOU ARE INSIDE THOMAS.

The idea that everybody on the planet must forever be beholden to the default of babysitter of other people’s children except for their actual fucking parents, and as a result any attempt to opt of non-consensual babysitting must include getting my identity stolen, is an idea that must fucking die.

cool brief history of alchemy:
there is a widespread belief among people with even a little technical and scientific savvy that Alchemy was a bunch of hooey, that they never published their experiments, that alchemists had to each discover on their own not to drink mercury, etc
but this is urban legend!
