The ETR 600 is a class of trains built by Alstom, and are used on the routes between Roma-Bolzano and Roma-Trieste. The train tilts, using Pendolino technology, allowing higher speeds to be maintained through corners without causing discomfort to passengers. The trains are operated by Trenitalia, originally under the Frecciargento (Silver Arrow) branding used for trains capable of travelling between 250 km/h and 285 km/h, In 2022 they were rebranded under Frecciarossa (Red Arrow) after the Frecciargento branding was retired.
The ETR 600 has also been adapted for use in China as the China Railway CRH5 Hexie. Initially 60 sets were ordered, of which nine were manufactured by Alstom and 51 by CNR Changchun Railway Vehicles. Since, another 80 sets have been created for a total of 140, operating across China’s north from Beijing to Ürümqi.

Hot take, its okay to have secrets, or to not tell people things, or not interact with people you don’t want to. Obviously I’m not advocating for with-holding information that harms people.
Everything else aside I cant stop thinking about this current wave of discourse about how people are entitled to know everything about you just cause youre dating, and (*comparing it) to the you have to reveal your trans status thing
sorry I’m venting, obviously I’m not even mentioning the misogyny, which ew
In a thread on shit.justworks calling us names for having the ‘we’re banning misogynists’ thread, users are literally arguing over the definition of transphobia, and not banning the transphobes, oh yeah
I think hexbear.net is a safe space to be online for transpeople, nobody’s perfect, but this place is alright
I did just see the ‘grr cheaters’ thread from last fortnight, and haha wow, there’s some people on this website who need to ‘touch grass’, (I hear the grass is nice in Siberia)
in lighter news: I realised I’ve been using neo pronouns ('ey/'em/'er/'im) and its just because i speak with kind of a drawl or something

The idea of coming out is terrifying. My stomach is in knots every time I think about telling anyone outside of hexbear. I told one friend I was questioning a while back and it went well, so I’m not sure what my issue is. I’ll try to break down my reasons.
spoiler
I worry they’ll have bad ideas about trans people. There are lots of bad ideas out there, and it seems like a lot of people don’t really care about having good opinions on things. So what might they think about trans people, and what will they think of me?
I worry they won’t see me as who I am/want to be seen as. They (family and friends) have only known me as a guy. Will they even believe me? And if I’m just going to be seen as [dead name] pretending to be a girl or whatever… that’s way worse.
Some of this might be autism, but I worry I don’t know how to act right. I don’t know how to be a woman, I don’t know how to be trans, I don’t understandddddd
Status quo changes in general are really hard for me. Slightly off topic, but the church has traumatized me massively. I was taught horrible things and I have struggled ever since. Its still, years after leaving, hard for me to not want to continue traditions from the church. I hate it so much, but its still hard to let go of. And I guess its kinda the same thing here. I know it is bad for me, I know its wrong, I can look around and see the problems. The rot.
dysphoria
Every time I hear myself talk, who do I hear? [deadname]. Every time I look at myself, who do I see? [deadname]. How can I expect better from anyone else?
I got my 8 hours of eep, why still eepy? :trans-sad:

my wife got a callout to go get a corpse at 1am, so I have made some fried rice for when she gets back. shout out to 1am fried rice, it’s good shit
dysphoria
Body is awful. I feel very disconnected from it a lot of the time, any time I get brought back I hate it. This is all wrong.
Some stuff (and hopefully a lot of the mental stuff) will improve with hrt. But I don’t know if I can/should start right now. Even still there’s other stuff that won’t be fixed. Will I ever like and accept my body.
self harm urges
Whatever bad vibes my body is giving me (can’t tell if it’s dysphoria or something else), it really makes me want to cut my arms. Only stopped by scars. Giving in and doing something non scarring (like a band) wouldn’t stop the urges.
Maybe (and maybe this is not a good idea, obviously I’m feeling awful and want to self harm so my ideas are not good) if I just told them I was self harming and need to transition they’d understand… How could anyone leave me like this.
weird dreams
In one of my dreams last night I became a mom and people immediately started giving me shit for wanting to sleep. Then the hospital flooded and I woke myself up.
In another dream my aunt was telling me I need to eat more because of hrt.
so if Galar is supposed to be Britain, and Unova America, did Unova fight for independenc against Galar? did Kalos help them out? this leads me to furtther thinking… what the actual fuck is a pokemon region? is it a nation state? is it a smaller administrative unit like a county or US state? some of them like galar and Kalos seem like entire nations, but are Kanto and Johto one country or two?
I think I have serious trouble regulating emotions. I did a workout today and felt absolutely ecstatic, like mentally I could have kept going for ages but my body was about to collapse. The in the afternoon I went for a walk and for some reason made myself super depressed. I feel lonely and ugly and I hate my body. Why am I like this
Fuck it
sad
self harm and suicide
Why am I even alive? This is all just pain, its been pain for so long, and I don’t see that ever changing. There is so much pain from so many directions. sh’d earlier and it did nothing for me. So like really, how am I supposed to stop being in pain? This happens literally regardless of what I do. Do girl stuff, feel like shit. Self care? shit. smoke weed? A bit better tbh, best I ever feel, but still there. Obviously there’s a lot of gender pain, but there’s other stuff too. And I am just so sick of all of it.
Even posted about it makes me feel like shit. Like oh here I am just bitching when other people have it worse. Why even post about ending it when I don’t have a method. Just stupid drama baiting shit tbh. Probably how everyone sees me. Can’t even sh properly so how am I even going to go through with a plan anyway.
Anyway I’m just rambling, I want to escape this. fwiw I don’t have a method so don’t worry about my safety too much.
Edit: I’m going to head to bed now, hoping to feel better tomorrow. Goodnight mega.
Maybe some of it is thinner layers, but acetone works so much better to remove nail polish then the “gentle” removers. I’m still surprised it just wiped away, not an issue at all.
you know, one thing I have always wondered
who ACTUALLY put the bomp in the bomp bah bomp bah bomp AND put the ram in the rama lama ding dong
