#smol cars and trains

[mean-scarlet-deceiver]

Question re the post about mass-produced vehicles generally not being sentient but sometimes becoming sentient if enough care and love was put into them and this being a concern for car modders: What qualifies as a "real vehicle"? I know even some 3-1/2" and 5" gauge live steam engines can pull a train with people on it. Do hobbyists who put thousands of hours into custom-built model locomotives often find that they are now parents to a living being that needs exercise and socialization?

You should probably be advised, right off the bat, that I am not a logical thinker and none of my headcanons/interpretations are consistent with the others.

I'm not so much good at "thought experiment" as "what would make a good fic?"

So I'm not sure exactly where the line is drawn—I'm open to ideas?—but I am inspired by one of @togetherness23's AUs where small models of Harold, Bertie, etc. adopt some Beatles. (It makes sense in context. Well, sorta. Well, that doesn't matter; it's delightful.)

Thus I propose the notion that, at small scales, you might give life to a lil' vehicle (even strictly a static model that can't "run" mechanically!). But it's a bit of... sub-sapient life, perhaps?

Like the difference between RC and the other toys...

... only even more exaggerated.

These "small-scale" vehicles and models don't talk, don't show any evidence of understanding humans' talk, and fail all formal intelligence tests.

But they have locomotion and will. They vroom back and forth or hover at very low heights to the ground, and they bond to their maker or other humans of their choice.

For they can be rather capricious and fey. Certainly they are so independent that they are super low-maintenance, as pets go. They are known to like disappearing (very annoying for the proud modeller!). Usually they turn up again sooner or later, but very much on their own time. Most of them are very coy about exhibitions and seem to prefer the privacy and comforts of home.

Some will run away from their owner more permanently, and may adopt some new human as "theirs." These little vehicles that run wild run the risk of becoming dirty and battered. But they don't require fuel and they are remarkably hardy. One disappeared from its creator in Uruguay in the '70s and reappeared over thirty years later in Japan, apparently with the intention of settling down with its creator's daughter, who had relocated in order to collaborate with fellow researchers at the University of Tsukuba.

There are at least a million of these lively little vehicles throughout the world, and rather than be as regulated as their larger road-, rail-, or flight-legal cousins, they are mostly ignored. If governments take notice of them at all, it is as subjects of research (are they a national security threat?—they don't seem to be) and as a pest problem.

Just spitballing. Anyone is welcome to borrow and refine the notion further.

ANOTHER ONE!

This time, my precious girl as a squirrel! I love you, squirrel Dinah 😭💜💜💜

[rubberbandballqueen]

been planning a trip w/friends (rather than family) for the first time and so i have no sense of scale for how to budget anything but i do know that i look at my bank acct n go D:

[emmetrain]

This was not his mansion. No. There were no butlers or nannies on sight to stop him either. The only downside was not being with him, probably reading all those scary books again. No matter! He could discover this new station and then report back to his twin, the future Subway Boss!! Yup!

Still, he stopped after spotting someone new. He kept records of every visitor! White bearded men from one to twenty, and all those other fancy people. This one was new!

“Hi there!!” No one was around so he did not have to be all proper and fancy! His stupid dress was tied on his side to appear more like a shirt, and he had his shorts that hid most of the bandaids on his legs. “You look funny! Do you wanna be my friend?”

[smolbeansthings]

I'm so diaper brained today. After leaking in my pull-up, I decided to double diaper myself and hydrate with lots of water. I put on one of my dresses to be that was pretty lengthy to hide my massive diaper. I decided to have some fun and go pick up some food from the grocery store, and while kneeling low to look at some, I felt my diaper getting warm. I tried to pretend I was still looking for something while I was pissing my pamps like an unpotty trained toddler. I stood up when I was done but didn't realize immediately that the hem of my dress had lifted as a result of my wearing a cloth diaper underneath. As I was walking to leave the aisle, a woman stopped me and said my "Your know what was showing." I immediately pulled down my dress, face burning red from embarrassment. I thanked the woman profusely as she let out a giggle and walked away. I was much more self-conscious all the way to my car. My waddling feeling very obvious. Now I'm home where I can relax and laugh about the experience of the post woman who made me feel smol due to the fact that she saw me in such an infantile state >/////<

THE RECEPTIONIST ☏

➤ (📞) GENRE: fluff, strangers to lovers | PAIRING: jay x fem reader | WC : 1.9k | SUMMARY: When you find your self crushing hard and constantly go to your local hospital just so you could see the cute receptionist again or in which the cute receptionist is amused by your antics and secretly anticipates your return.

SOO’S SMOL NOETY 📝:

𖤐 lowkey off topic but I’m quite embarrassed to say I’ve never seen these pictures of jay before... (＃＞＜) Like ive been stanning enha sine iland as well I don’t get it.. I came across this and was so shocked cuz how come I’ve NEVER SEEN THESE JAY PICS!!?? it’s just added an extra 5 years onto my lifespan (thank you to my man!! 🥰) + this is 80% proof read see a weird word? Erase it from your memory ❤️

YOUR MOTHER WAS DRAMATIC. Everything little thing that happened, she would inflate out of proportion, just like today. When you called her and told her you had some odd rashes, she freaked out and arrived to your university accommodation within 10 minutes. You tried to reassure her that it wasn't deep, but she didn't want to hear it. Assuming the worst, she literally dragged you by your ear to her car and drove you to the hospital.

The whole thing was humiliating as your friends and anyone who lived in your section watched the whole interaction form their windows. You understand your mother wanted to make sure you were alright. Especially as you were the youngest sibling she always was extra mindful of you. But she was doing way to much for your liking. You just wanted to get this over with and go home.

Once you arrived you and your mother approached the counter and rang the bell so that a receptionists could be alerted. Soon a tall male appeared “ I apologise for the wait I had an important call.. what can I do for you miss?” You shot your head up once you heard the voice stepping closer and locking eyes with him .

For you, it was love at first sight. He was cute, he was handsome, and all of the above. You had never seen anyone as attractive as him in your 20 years of living. Who is this angel from above his jawline? I need him to cut me in ha- " y/n sweetie, why don't you explain your problem to the gentleman?"

Oh yeah..my rashes

“uh... I have some rashes uh... that are uh... spreading all over umm..my back” you internally slapped yourself for speaking like that and stuttering it's bad enough you showed up with your mum at your big age and now this..what was he supposed to think of you. It was difficult to concentrate on your words as his deep brown eyes were fixed on you.

He hummed as he scribbled something on his notes, “ladies please sit over there on the red chairs and make yourself comfortable I'll set you up with one of our doctors in a minute ” oh I'll make myself comfortable alright “pardon? ” You covered your mouth with your hands as you gasped, realising you had spoken out loud. Here I am again, embarrassing myself in front of him .

The male chuckled to himself before heading off down the hall.

Later that week more like 2 days after you found yourself at the hospital again Why? Because you were sick sick. Suffering from what? A bad case of I’m attracted to my hospitals receptionist syndrome and you needed an antidote quickly.So What perfect way to curs yourself by seeing the cause instead.

Plus you couldn’t focus at uni he lived in your head rent free and you didn’t even know his name. You wanted to talk to him again to hear his deep voice. Maybe you were obsessed ? Crazy? But you were crazy in love and needed to see him. So during your free you took the train and made your way to the hospital.

As you approached the counter you were met with an unfamiliar pair of eyes it was another receptionist. Where’s the sexy jawline dude who the hell is this old woman? “ umm excuse me ? Where’s the hot receptionist” the lady looked up from her paper and raised a brow eyeing you up and down “ if your a fan girl please excuse yourself out the hospital if your not actually sick “ tch she has an attitude “ uhh..im actually his girlfriend im here to drop somthing off ! I’ll be quick” you forced a smile as she squinted her eyes once more giving you a look as if searching for you obvious lie but she seemed to buy it “ I’ll call him for you stay here ” she disappears into the back and eventually your “boyfriend” comes out.

“ boyfriend ? “ he raised a brow with an amused smile on his face. You will be soon you just don’t know it yet “ i..uhh I only said that so you could come out please don’t misunderstand anything ” he nodded sitting down on the chair “ well then since you requested me what do you need ? ” you didn’t actually come there with a plan. Not having enough time to think of some fake diagnosis to give yourself you chose to be honest.

A sudden wave of confidence washes over you “ I need you ” he raised a brow “pardon ?” You nodd “ you heard me” the male chuckles to himself “you came all the way just to say this.. I’ll applaud you for your determination but im not interested ” im going to throw my self of a building “ don’t speak so soon.. once you get to know me your going to become interested” he hummed “ sure sure” you crossed your arms “ well if your going to reject me can I at least know the name of the guy I’ve been dreaming about ” he smirks “ you’ve been dreaming about me? Your very honest I like that.. and the names jay “ even his name is sexy

“ I’m honest and a lot more things you will like if your willing to find out jay..” you graced your fingers over his lightly before turning off to leave. With a proud smile on your face

Jay didn’t really understand what just happed but he found you amusing. It’s not like he hadn’t had girls come here and put it on him but something about the way you carried yourself and acted was different. He wouldn’t admit it but he hoped to see you some time soon.

As quick as the next day you showed up. You approach the counter to be met with the same old annoying lady “ here to see your boyfriend? I’ll get him ” maybe she’s not so annoying anymore you smiled to yourself as your little lie seemed to be doing you wonders

“ good afternoon jay how’ve you been did you miss me” he rolled his eyes while flicking though some documents “ you’ve been gone for 21 hours.. there’s nothing to miss it hasn’t even been a full day” he was counting..? “ you counted how many hours soooo…you did miss me didn’t you ?” you spoke with a slight blush on your cheeks at the thought that he actually missed you to some extent. Jay noticed this he thought it was cute how easily flustered you got “ your cute when you blush ” hearing him say that you made your legs melt like jelly almost losing balance to the point jay even stood up reaching out for your arm in concern

“ y/n.. are you alright ?” You nodd slowly “ you know my name..” you speak in a dazed tone to which jay smiles “ of course your not someone to forget.. so are you actually sick or.. you came here to see me” what do you think “ no this time I’m actually a little under the weather do you want to know why jay ” he nodded getting out his notepad

“ I’m stuffing from unrequited love.. the guy I like doesn’t feel the same way.. and I think I might die from a broken heart ” you spoke dramatically with a small pout flashing jay your doe eyes hoping he would be tranced by your attempt to be cute and fall in love with you. To your shock he flicked your forehead “ ouch! Why would you do that ! ” he now moved closer to you placing his hands on the counter staring at you deeply

“ it seems your suffering form something else too.. stupidity ” huh? What is that supposed to mean “ what.. please elaborate I’m unaware of this symptom” you speak deeply confused so you move closer to jay urging him for an answer. Almost closing the distance between the two of you. You action caught jay of guard causing him to move back and hide his deep blush with a cough “ that’s a conversation for another time “ you raise a brow “ another time? So you intend to see me again when’s the date ” he laughs “ I never said I was taking you out on a date ” you pout again

“ fine then.. I guess I’ll just go to another hospital form now on..” you turn to leave wishing he would follow you but the more you headed to the entrance you realised he wasn’t. You sighed maybe this is a sign I should move on.

Though just as you stepped foot out the entrance you felt a force pull you to an outside wall pushing you against it. You were shocked to see jay. “ are you that dense y/n” what what what “Huh..? I don’t I.. I don’t understand ” his eyes flicked from your eyes to your lips he seemed as if he heisted at the thought of kissing you

“ on second thought.. I-I don’t need to understand if your going to kiss me just do it ” he chuckled lightly placing his finger on your lips “ I want to make that move in a better and more appropriate setting if you get what I mean” he still wants to kiss me so a win is a win.

you couldn’t belive that this whole time jay liked you back you mentally facepalm yourself for being so dense how did you not notice sooner? A regular person would have shooed you away yet he entertained it all. It was so obvious I’m an idiot

He pulls away from you slightly now resting on the wall next to you

“ wait so you really did miss me? ” he nodded but you didn’t fail to miss the small tint of red that was evident on his ears as he attempted to turn away “ yeah.. I actually gave you my number but I guess you didn’t notice “ you raise a brow number HE GAVE ME HIS NUMBER AND I DIDINT NOTICE !?

“ wait wait wait when? “ he shrugged “ on the first day I wrote it on a sheet of paper and when I escorted you and your mom to the doctor I slipped it into your bag since you left it open Damm it this was the 3rd mental facepalming you had revived for your actions, as you do in fact remember seeing a scrunched up ball of paper but assumed it was rubbish and threw it in the trash.

“ I threw that in the bin thinking it was rubbish oh my gosh Jay why didn’t you just straight up say it to me my memory is impeccable!” he smiles “ I wanted to tease you a little bit longer I like seeing you all cute and flustered ” now it was your turn away and hide the blush on your face.

You had so much more you wanted to say to him but the interaction was cut short by that annoying old lady. Yes after what interrupting your lil moment with jay she became annoying again

“ Jay.. stop sucking your girlfriends face off and answer to some customers I’m on my break !” She yells as you could hear her approaching. You turn to jay with a frown. Though Shocking both you and him Jay unknowingly places a quick kiss on your cheek mouthing a small “I’ll see you later” before running back into the hospital.

You sigh as you lean on the wall placing your hand on your cheek as you relived the moment on reply. Again and again and again and again- “ y/n!” you hear jay call out for you. He approached you quickly placing a folded paper in your Palm “ my number.. please don’t throw it away again and call me”

And he sped off again

You smiled to yourself as you held the paper firmly in your hand not wanting to let go. You never knew in your life that you would be thanking your mother for being so dramatic.

i need headcanons about movie tangerine and lemon's teenage years / early 20s / brain's still developing years lmao

i think that

- despite them being twins tangerine gives off eldest brother vibes so as soon as they turned 18/19 he made sure he got them a decent place to stay

- they probably had a tiny place with wallpaper hanging from corners of the walls

- and like a kitchen without a table but they had two smol couches so!!!

- lemon was very good at stealing in supermarkets making sure they got extra snacks. and maybe an extra lunch

- tangerine stole cars maybe?? lol

- this is around the time tangerine got his necklace like. he was in his early 20s

- then stealing became a job, then stealing jobs led to other type of jobs..

- and then they never stayed in the same town too long

- totally unrelated but I think lemon is very good at drawing... trains especially

and then I need someone to add more to this please 😭 like how did they become paid assassins what was their first kill and so on ??

2 und 5 mit Goethe, Schiller und Kleist >:)

Fucking KLEIST?? Ach, na schön. Der Vorteil ist, im Vergleich kommt JoWo gut weg...

go on a six hour road trip with (no car radio, you choose who drives): Goethe fährt und ich verbringe meine Zeit damit, ihn gezielt in den Wahnsinn zu treiben, singe ihm Musicals vor, weil ja das blöde Radio in seinem Auto nicht geht, und erzähle ihm, was Newton von seiner Farbenlehre hält.

sit next to on a six hour plane flight: Kleist; wenn er mich nervt, sperre ich ihn in der Toilette ein. Aber ich glaub, abgesehen von gelegentlichem schwermütigem Seufzen kommt da nicht viel, also hab ich hoffentlich meine Ruhe.

sit across from on a six hour train journey: Schillers Primärbedürfnis auf einer Zugfahrt dürfte sein, seine langen Gliedmaßen einzusortieren; ich bin smol und nehm nicht viel Platz ein und dafür ist er wahrscheinlich schon dankbar. Ansonsten traue ich seinem sozialen Feingefühl mehr zu als dem von Goethe; er wird merken und keinen Anstoß daran nehmen, dass ich weder reden noch seiner Brillianz lauschen will. ___________________________________________

fist fight: Schwierige Entscheidung, aber Goethe. Ich glaub, er steht auf pampige Rothaarige, die keinen Respekt vor ihm haben; ihm eine reinzuhauen könnte ihn also lange genug verwirren, dass ich den Sieg davontrage.

get drunk with: Kleist. Der einzige Grund, warum er jetzt hier steht und nicht Goethe, ist, weil ich glaube, dass er durch die Depression ein minimal erträglicheres Ego hat. Wir können uns ein bisschen gegenseitig über das Leben ausheulen, ist vielleicht kathartisch. Außerdem wird er im Gegensatz zu Goethe wahrscheinlich in besoffenem Zustand eher lyrisch als naturwissenschaftlich.

share a flat with: Schiller ist der einzige aus der Runde, den ich für irgendeinen ausgedehnten Zeitraum ertragen würde, aber zum Rauchen würde ich ihn grundsätzlich aussperren; ist mir egal, ob er sich da im Winter noch die fünfte Lungenkrankheit zuzieht. Soll er halt gesund leben.

[greenjudy]

greenjudy takes the train

This is my first trip in three years. Anywhere (with the exception of a handful of medical/optical appointments). I mean, I have remained in my remote Buddhist retreat center home without so much as a trip to the shops.

And I have just traveled in an Amtrak roomette from the Bay Area up to Seattle. 

The roomette is... not cheap, although prices definitely vary by season. But for my purposes, at this moment, the roomette was just right: the weirdest, coolest way to do this. 

My train was hours late, and by the time we got underway it was after 11 PM. I crashed shortly after taking this video, sleeping very fitfully indeed in my clothes. (Newbie error. Just draw your damn curtains and put your jammies on.)  When I woke up, it was just before dawn; we were north of Redding, traveling through a burn scar. 

Fury Road; Mordor. Black branches of trees against a white sky, no color anywhere. It was a terrible reminder of the fires we've endured here in California for the last several years. But it was also strangely beautiful, with thousands of tiny dougie firs growing, trying to come back. 

As the train rolled north, the snow that had lain in scattered patches on the ground grew deeper. Enormous banks of it pocked with footmarks: creatures making their own paths. I saw a deer on a ridge nearly at eye level with me, bedded down in a snow nest, watching the train, not 30 feet away. 

Wondrous trees.

After tunnels and travels through mountains and waterfalls and conifers, we had an enchanting passage through part of the Willamette National Forest; then the scenery grew more domesticated, bleak little farms giving way to industry and then city sprawl.

You can sense the energies of a unique culture, on the train. The Amtrak staff have a camaraderie and a sly humor that comes across in the announcements. (They held a union meeting for employees right after dinner!) The train staff take no shit and will not wait for you if you linger during the smoke break: get the fuck back on the train, or get left at Chemult to wait 24 hours for the next train, it's your call. The staff know their own worth, and I sure hope they are getting paid commensurate with what they give. 

Dining cars are communal, which is part of the peculiar charm of train travel. Very Agatha Christie; get to know your neighbors. Sadly, we are still in a pandemic, and so I (vaccinated; boosted; covalent boosted) took all my meals in the roomette. This seemed safer from a Covid standpoint, and after all I am scheduled to visit a baby. 

This is definitely a grueling way to travel, especially during Covid time. I stayed in my compartment the entire time, except bathroom breaks (and the tiny Amtrak toilets are most entertaining. Do you have contamination OCD? Most entertaining!). The allotted space in a roomette is Smol. If you are not Smol, you may find it confining. I would also urge you to bring a great deal of water along. Even though there is a constant fresh air exchange with the outside world, the filters make the air dry and crunchy. Bring water. (Newbie error #2: I forgot to do this.)

The rocking motion of the train; the melancholy jokes of the dining car attendant, with secret, in-joke layers directed at the room attendants.

And the wild country where the tracks were laid, more than a hundred years ago.

[gojou-violin]

how would you describe choso to someone who has not gotten into jjk yet 👀 bc i don’t know him but i like the way he looks 🫣

Omg baby let me introduce you to this finneeeeee specimen.

Firstly, let’s get you acquainted with the manga version of him. (We don’t talk about the anime cuz MAPPA did him dirttyyyy). Choso honestly looks like a depressed, tired older brother, and that’s because HE IS!!! Mans just needs a break. But honestly, all of that sadness and exhaustion just leaves him the second he has to fight because he suddenly has the confidence to do ANYTHING because he will protect his loved ones no matter what

Here’s some general fanart of him before we get into the sects of his fandom lol

Ok so you’ll see 2 kinds of Choso in fanon, and one version is FAR more popular than the other. The one that most people seem to cling to is that Choso is a cigarette smoking, motorcycle riding, e-boy lookin ass who’s a mean Dom. Where this idea came from………… Idk. Tbh, probably from his fighting personality since he’s so powerful and cool ig. But ya lots of ppl see him as the JD type from Heathers.

The second version is the one I’m on the hype train for. I’m ride-or-die for sub!choso. Look at this man. Look at him. He needs hugs, kisses, praises, and someone to tie him up and make him cry- wait- I mean- uhhhhhh……… Anyhow. Here, he’s the type to fall asleep in your arms and come to you after a bad day. He’s the type to protect you no matter the cost. I love him, your honor.

Tbh. I love Choso in canon and fanon, whether ppl think he’s scary Dom or smol boy. I think he’s a fantastic character in the manga, and I hope that they do him some justice in season 2 of the anime. If you’re the type of person that’s into guys who love their family, are super powerful, will still cry when they’re worried about their friends/family, and have traumatic backstory, then you’re gonna love this guy- *pats his head like I’m slapping the roof of a car I’m trying to sell to you*

[strawberry-seal77]

Okay I’ll bite

Why did she hide her ears?

HAHA YES I GET TO EXPLAIN LORE >:333

Short answer first: She used to be part of a group called the White fang, it started as peaceful protests for Faunus rights but soon became a terrorist group. She is ashamed of her past and hides her faunus heritage.

But for the long answer~: Blake used to be a member of The White Fang, a group of faunus fighting for equal rights. It started out as just peaceful protests, but after a change in leadership the group started doing more violent things. Breaking into stores, robbing trains, all that jazz.

And wouldn't you know it, Blake was there for the entire time (though as a smol child at first). She grew up in the White Fang, saw as it changed.

Leadership was changed to someone who thought to use violence, and Blake's parents left the white fang. But she was too deep in the group at that point, and rejected to join her parents, instead choosing to stay with those she still had.

She slowly noticed how bad it got, but Adam, who she was dating at the time, was a hard advocate for the violence. He convinced her again and again to just go a little further, until it culminated on one train robbing mission.

(this mission is shown in the Black trailer)

During the mission, Blake gets confirmation again and again that Adam isn't going to change, and just when they're going to finish it, Adam turns to find Blake on the train car ahead. She says one word, "Goodbye", and cuts the train car, as Adam just stands and watches her go.

Blake is ashamed of her past, and ashamed of how all she does is run (even her Semblance, which lets her leave a shadow behind to take the hit for her)

By hiding her ears she hides her past, and hides from what she did.

[ash-the-porcupine]

Bustash moments.

OOH OKI. THE DUMB THINGS THEY HAVE DONE AS A COUPLE GO AS SUCH....

-They love going out to see movies. One time, they started dancing and singing to the song in the credits because the animals behind them were being annoying. Payback time.

-They stole mini-golf balls to go mini-golfing and bribed the waiter to give them half-price on French fries

-Found a cheat flaw in a game at the arcade and came up to the desk person with well over a thousand tickets because of it. XD

-Ash forced Buster into riding a ferris wheel. He dumped a water bottle on her head while she was distracted face-timing Rosita. Rosita was laughing but just let Buster do it without telling Ash what was about to happen but for an offhand comment about getting a shower. Ash thought she meant it might rain. NOPE.

-She also made Buster go on a roller coaster, and through this learned that his screams were the funniest thing she’d ever heard in her entire life

-They sang Brighter by Patent Pending in the middle of the Roc’s parking lot because the rap music coming from an alligator’s car was annoying. They actually got quite the crowd.

-Ash once tripped holding ice cream cones. Scratch water, Buster got an ice cream cone dumped on his head this time.

-Ash likes to spook Buster. He is very jumpy and she finds it hilarious. She did learn her lesson when she dressed up as a clown though. Buster locked himself in his office for a full day and a half, and would have stayed there had Johnny not picked the door lock.

-Buster tried to make Ash a birthday cake, but ended up having to call Meena because he messed up so many times.

-One time, Ash asked Buster to grab a bag of flour in the store. He yanked on it too hard, and the whole thing poured out on him, leaving him white and odd-looking for the rest of the trip. The workers had a laugh at this, making them less mad about having to clean up the mess.

-Buster told Ash at a Halloween festival that he wanted her to bob for apples. She dunked the back of her head in the bucket and came out with her spikes holding ALL the apples.

-Buster has to do parkour all the time because he’s such a smol bean. More than once Ash has had him fall from the rafters of the theater and face plant in front of her. It scares the cheezits out of her, but it’s funny. She tells him often, “You’re going to break your nose one day.” And I have a feeling that day is fast-approaching.

-Ash went on a trip all the way to Japan. At the train station, she kissed his cheek. He stood there grinning like an idiot for the next ten minutes.

[raibebe]

renjun is like me: travel-sized. 😂 (except not really?? mini rant: plane/train seats are also uncomfortable if you're short, just much more in the upper body than the lower body. last time i slept on a train i got a lot of neck pain 😭 IS2G THOSE SEATS ARE MADE WITH NO ONE IN MIND.)

Renjun smol.

I haven't been on a train in ages but I do know that there's no room for my legs in any sort of public transportation which is why I have a car 😂

[pressedink]

OKAY,

i am once again on public transportation and two things have taken place in my specific train car:

one | there is a man dressed in an orange jacket, orange hat, and orange-brown LOW rise converse all stars. and he is reading Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. like chapter ONE, just cracked it open. he is bearded. do you think i should tell him the fanon material is much better? and a lot less terfy?

two | there is a HOT beautiful gorgeous masculine looking person standing across from me in a purple pullover. it says “Hairy Otter” and has a graphic on it of a smol adorable lil otter in round glasses. i have tried to make eye contact to compliment them several times. i have been unsuccessful so far.

UM????? is this a sign?? what is happening? two harry potter references in ONE train car? this is unprecedented, never seen before. help me. can they tell i write fanfiction???? do they know im thinking about regulus black as we speak????????

[the-jam-to-the-unicorn]

About the Poland / Duda video: Is it just me or was Vova moving weirdly?! As in: sitting down in a weird way. I also noticed him limping (?) when he met Macron. Also the Charles Michael photo with him sitting in a weird way. I hope our smol president is fine!

He really was moving a but funnily, yes. But could very well just be exhaustion and having to sit so much. Not to mention that the military plane probably wasn't really comfortable.

Besides that: We know he has back pain. Which probably didn't get any better. In the end, for almost a year he's living in the opposite of perfect conditions. The food situation is better, but probably far away from perfect or good. He's doing sports but that's probably not a well-balanced training he's used to. God alone knows how many hours a day he has to sit somewhere. And while the bunker / the safe houses / places are probably furnitured I wouldn't cound on a supercomfy bed. Not to mention the stress and mental health that's totally going to have an effect on someone's body. And he might even hurt himself here and there - missing a step, pulling a muscle during training, the car crash,... and this doesn't really have the proper time right now to heal. (not to mention he's 45...which isn't grandpa old but still - he's not a young man anymore)

So yeah, he most likely has some health problems / body health problems. But, to quote Ze, he has no time / right to rest and will not until the war is over and the country build back.

Hello Lovelies! Today was Chest, Quadriceps, Triceps and Abs day! #Fitbod wanted me to do Bosu Squats and Jumping Squats today and I just wasn’t feeling them for whatever reason, so I changed it to a Side Lunge and Dumbbell Squats to Shoulder Press instead. I gotta remind myself that I don’t have to look up at the weights when I do the shoulder press part so I don’t strain my neck or my back ^^;. I know I can Dumbbell Floor Press a heavier weight but I don’t feel safe doing them solo in case my smol hands lose grip on the big Powerblock handle and drop the weight on myself TT__TT. I also had to switch the ab exercises to something that wouldn’t take so long because I had to get ready for work. Normally I would’ve had enough time but I had to take one of our cars to the shop to get them to look at it and try to fix it and then I had to drop my dad off at work before getting home to finish training and get ready for work myself ^^;. Thank you for all the love and encouragement, friends :3 💖💖💖.‌‌ https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj6TWJsPA1c/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
