1. Don't wear headphones or earbuds, so you can hear any approaching trains. 2. Hold a mirror in front of you as you walk, so you can see a train approaching from behind you. 3. Check the train schedule befor you leave for the store and avoid the tracks during times when a train is due.

🧵 Walking to the grocery store usually takes you about 20 minutes each way. Recently, you've discovered a great shortcut. A rail line cuts through your neighbourhood, and if you walk on the train tracks, you can get to or from the grocery store in only 10 minutes.

Have you read Beowulf? No you haven't. And especially not like this. Well, you fucking should. Or anyway the fight between Beowulf and Grendel, which is short enough that you'd get through it. @sesquiotic.bsky.social brings it to you. stronglang.wordpress.com/2026/05/19/w...

Wolf-boy versus Grinder (the Bow Valley Beowulf)

tl;dr: I’ve translated the intro to Beowulf and the fight scene between Beowulf and Grendel into modern rural Western Canadian English, complete with lots of rude language. Why? Beca…

When you get to Albany-Rensselaer, your train might stop for a locomotive change. It takes about 20-30 minutes, so it's a chance to get up and stretch your legs. (Or have a nap; they have to cut most of the power for the changeover, so the lighting will be rather dim.)

If they're that upset about $2000 for a commemorative plaque, then they'll be apoplectic when they find out how much tax money goes to the police. Oh, wait. Never mind.
