hit tag limit on the last post cos i started talking about roller coasters again 😔
#toy txt post
#wish there was a way for me to like. Do. something. with my roller coaster hyperfixation. but im not an engineer i dont want to design them
#thats so scary and i couldnt be a ride op cos im scared of riding most of them (disclaimer I KNOW HOW SAFE THEY ARE THATS NOT THE PROBLEM
#I DONT HANDLE THE PHYSICAL EXPERIENCE OF THRILL RIDES FILLING ME WITH ADRENALINE VERY WELL IT CAUSES ME PAIN
#i do not enjoy it. but i love to see coasters and watch them and read about them 🥺 and also sometimea i read about. the incidents which
#felt like very foolish at first like okay this isnt gonna help me get comfortable riding them but honestly actually it did help?
#to see how many of the incidents are like. truly like either freak accidents or someone fucked up
#but like the rides safety mechanisms usually are very good and not the reason for an accident. most errors seem to be like. act of god or
#like. operator or rider error. and some of the operator errors are kind of terrifying BUT ALSO seem like things that can be prevented
#maybe the new wave of unionizing in the us will sweep into theme park employees and make sure theyre paid well and recieve good benefits
#and that they are not pressured to prioritize profits or faster throughput at the expense of safety. and (really optimistic i know) maybe
#we as a society and culture can unlearn our systemic fatphobia to the point that its doable to turn someone away for being
#too big to ride safely without making them feel like shit or like its their fault and MAYBE we'll even possibly just maybe figure out how
#to make rides that can actually accommodate larger guests safely so they can participate in the fun without fear or bodyshaming
#logically i know theres no way to remove 100% of risk and that there is still heightened risk especially for ppl w various
#medical conditions but idk i think we as a society can keep theme parks and do them well. i believe in us.
#i should go to more of them....ive been to like. not that many but i do still have favorites
#hershey my beloved. i LOVE how visible all the coasters are all the time i LOVE the skyview going right through great bears track
#i hope i can go again this yr and see the new wildcat 🥺 absolutely not going to ride that fucking thing but i am definitely going to stare
#at it. jenn if youre reading this i cannot fucking believe you got me to ride og wildcat honestly
#p sure that rattle gave me a headache and i would not do it again that was a rough fucking ride lol but im glad u somehow got me into that
#i have. such a complicated relationship with being peer pressured onto rides lol
#like on the one hand i do need that a little bit or i definitely wont do it but on the other. being forced onto comet as a child was
#slightly traumatizing and definitely marked my turn from wanting to ride all the coasters to jot wanting to ride anything
#to my parents credit on that one they do recognize it as a mistake and were sorry about it like immediately so i dont hold it against them
#but also dont. force ur children to ride coasters lol. but i do need to go spend a day at hershey just forcing myself to ride great bear
#over and over. fav coaster best coaster. its so fucking loud. its shaped so good. pretty color scheme. its constellation themed
#i do love and am obsessed with how hershey packs all those tracks together like that it looks so cool i love to see it
#candymonium right at the entrance like that is Extremely distracting very immediately
