Engineering Train!

DR 73111, owned by SB Rail, trundles through Aberdeen station at night :3

This specific train is a tamper, which means it consolidates the ballast beneath the tracks to allow for higher speed and safer running, as a sort of half way step to what modern high speed lines do with just having a concrete track bed.

also pls boost cos otherwise these posts go nowhere lmao

TIRED: Orks are like The Hulk in being green muscly dudes punching stuff

WIRED: The Grinch is like The Hulk in being green dudes who like animals but would just like people to stop annoying them

INSPIRED: Orks are like The Grinch in being green dudes zipping around in structurally dubious red vehicles

Literally the second time this 40K lore video starting with “time to childproof the kitchen and stairs, here come the Emperor’s Children” prompts listening to

when you consider how completely un-fun being a Space Marine sounds* it's amazing they don't lose more Astartes to Slaanesh especially

* with the exception of the Space Wolves, who are definitely the fun chapter

then I said [we live in] the sort of dark cyberpunk future where if you want LEDs on your translucent PVC raincoat, it's a monthly subscription service

I was going to make a joke about splicing together the opening chase sequence in "A Hard Day's Night" with the skeletons screaming and charging in "Jason and the Argonauts" and then discovered that Jason and the Argonauts came out a YEAR before Hard Day's Night.

I wound up cutting okra into smaller pieces which the recipe I found after the fact says NOT to do but honestly, short of stopping at the Lebanese grocery store, there is just no way to find smaller, middle eastern style okra.

I did not buy a giant burrito.

Instead, I bought groceries, then fried tofu to add to salads later, stewed pork to cook with preserved vegetables later, and cooked a vague attempt at Persian okra stew. Probably not very authentic, will likely clean me out, but tastes pretty good imho.

oh no it's BBC DOCUMENTARY SYNTHS

you pretty much have to wear a suit jacket with elbow patches and have glasses with squarish frames, and probably sideburns, if you show up with this on in the background

this Yes album ain't shit

* FIVE MINUTES LATER *

* Hallucinating a confused blend of pre-issue-100 White Dwarf magazines and The Dark Crystal

guacamole is basically ice cream, and a cone is basically a taquito, when you think about it

* pipe organ rises from the floor, with a mysterious cloaked figure riding on the bench, gesturing dramatically. However, instead of actually PLAYING the pipe organ, the mysterious being starts singing. Loudly. Vaguely on key. *

Eldrad Ulthran, legendary farseer of Ulthwe craftworld, is possibly the greatest psyker among the Aeldari, but can his mastery of the webway grant him insight into why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch?

I know I can't really do much more than I have been doing, and possibly because I was taught I was an out of control monster and a lot of my buttons are being pushed, I feel like I'm not supposed to be *this upset* over political stuff. Could I ask for reassurance that I'm within reasonable bounds to be upset?

okay I managed to pull myself out of the terrible mood without weed

some sort of crummy congestion sinusitis bleargh

the hell

I really just want to go sleep some.
