Tourists Try Indonesia’s Public Transport

Just sharing a foreign tourist’s take on Indonesia’s public transportation. No claims, just their experience. 🤌🚄 From urban metro systems to commuter rail and high-speed trains, Indonesia has them too🇮🇩✨

Ticket to Ride Legacy.

I ordered unique trains for each colour because I like making my games feel luxurious.

Suggestions Wanted!

I'm working on a world building project based around the concept of wagon trains like those that crossed the west. Currently I'm building a list of rules and conditions a wagon party might have set down. So far I've got versions of limits placed on gambling, drinking and how the sick and dead are… read more

AI, feeding on stolen artwork

Remembering that meta trains AI on everything that is published on its platforms: I hate AI "art". It's a horrible time to live. I hate it.

Trains are dumb

Spent yesterday improv singing/playing goofy stuff and those gosh dern trains kept interrupting. Sigh. (edited)

Why modern dating patterns punish emotionally available people?

One of the most destabilizing patterns I've noticed among clients (as a psychological counselor) in modern dating is that detachment is often rewarded, while emotional availability, regardless of gender, is quietly punished. Many emotionally available men and women enter dating with clarity,… (edited) read more

I like trains 🚃

crazy thought

what if trains and planes switched lives for 1 day. Trains would be flying off the runways and into the sky and planes would be zooming on the railways. 🛩️

Like any good socialist, my dog loves trains and riding on public transit. (edited)

My First Point

I always want to travel via ordinary trains. I wanted to do this before 2025 ends. So, I did it. The sky was dark when I arrived at the station and the scenery was really breath taking when the colors burst in the skies when the sun shone. This was the moment when I knew that something is about… (edited) read more

My border collie is getting old 😮‍💨

She may be old but she's still gold! She chased like three trains today and still got the energy in her. Happy 9th birthday Millie! 🎉

Trains soon will be running normally again, right? Right?? 🥹

Slow progress with the banana sock

Am constantly refreshing sites for updates about the trains because I miss my home (edited)

Any suggestion for a game that's about being snowed in?

Asking for a friend... And myself! Kinda want cozy but being trapped because of snow (ok ok, not actually snowed in, just trains and buses not going, airport shut down etc) I am in the mood for a trapped in snow game! Pictures for dramatic effect (edited)

Less than conventional reading spots

I can not read inside. My ADHD will get the best of me. Now that I work remotely, the best I can do is read/work out on the patio or balcony. It's best if I get my dopamine through unconventional means. Photos from over the years, of my favorite spots - Top of a firetrucks 🚒 - Abandoned… (edited) read more

And in way again

A carriage on the Minsk-Moscow train. These trains are a bit different — quite pleasant. A journey with transfers is a bit more comfortable; you don't get as tired. I’m reading “And Then There Were None” — a book recommended by a fellow traveler — and eating chocolate, having missed breakfast.… read more

Sat outside at 2am

Listening to the sounds of the distant city, freight trains and cars. Watching foxes walk about the streets. Catching the first breeze in days as seeds drop from the tree I sit under, alone. Is it so wrong to want someone to share this rare moment of piece with?

Why Are They All Taken?

Why is it the stars I notice Already belong to another sky? Why do the songs that move my heart End before I can ask them why? They arrive like unexpected sunsets, Warm, beautiful, and out of reach, Teaching lessons without trying, Speaking words they never speak. Maybe it’s the mystery around… read more

Bridges Intersection

Elbbrücken — Hamburg’s striking bridge district where steel architecture, trains, and harbor views meet the industrial side of the city.

New York City is not all that society makes it out to be

Most people imagine NYC as a nonstop glamorous movie set: rooftop parties, perfect skyline views, instant success, and exciting nights every day. Pop culture mostly shows the nicest 1–2% of the city: trendy neighborhoods, influencers’ lifestyles, and carefully edited images. In reality, New York… read more

Ghosting in Dating

Ghosting is one of those things I can hold in a both/and way. Because yes: sometimes it’s necessary. Sometimes disappearing is the safest “no” a person can give. Women, femme-presenting people, trans people, and a lot of marginalized folks live in a world where rejecting the wrong cis man can get… read more

Man sometimes I do love photography.

Photographing trains is such a peaceful way to express yourself.

The education system doesn’t teach independent thought; it trains compliance.

An out of body experience which happened a few years ago. The air felt heavy the moment I stepped out that morning—a persistent, nagging intuition that the day wasn't following the usual script. I was heading toward City Central, but my surroundings felt strangely heightened, as if the world were… (edited) read more

Trains in Japan

Cringe weeaboo biker sees train in japan for the first time, truly cringe sorry...

🌱

I wonder, if ignoring reality could cause people to end up in Psychiatric ward? Why? Because reality is harsh and we are not training our minds to cope, like a soldier who trains for combat. I'm not saying we shouldn't have some escape regularly, like vacations and parties. What I'm thinking, it is… read more

I went to Japan.

My feelings are mixed about Japan, I can't tell what broke me there. Maybe the homelessness of both old and young? Maybe the air filled with cigarettes? There was many factors but I still love Japan for being so unique, everyone there have their own sense of fashion and they are so kind. Their… read more

What is creativity ?…

✍ Creativity doesn’t always start with something completely new. It can begin with small changes to what already exists. Each change trains you to think differently, and with practice, those small creative steps can build the talent to create something entirely new. ✨
