[marimo-o]

Ride 724: After the qualifiers

Pag 1

1: Yeah

It suits you!

2: You knowk, a robbon with summer clothes...

Where should we go have lunch?

3: No, Naruko-san was like this, teh!

The way Imaizumi-san was swinging his bike was incredible too!!

4: He was so much faster than during practice! It felt like he was flexing and bending his huge body!!

5: Naruko-san's low posture and speed was like a rocket, teh!!

6: Ahhh... that race made me lose my mind

Yeah... it was super hard, but....

Pag 2

1: That was really....

Pag 4

1: Overwhelming, teh!!

Pag 5

1: Yeah!!

“The Inter High representative is decided”

“It's Sohoku high school....”

2: It was so cool, teh...!!

Yeah!! Yeah!!

But for a moment I thought Imaizumi-san would win

That's because Naruko-san was mere seconds behind Imaizumi-san and so he was protected from the wind and could rest his legs

Huh!? Really!? He did  sucha thing while running at that speed?

3: I don't really get it, but as expected from the winner of the first years' race!!

Well, yeah!! Yeah, I won

Pag 6

1: “You brokethrough the qualifiers, now next is the national competition”

“Congratulations, Roku-chan”....

“Amazing”....

2: I thought of calling out to him, but

It looks like he's getting along well with Kinaka

3: I kinda wanna jump in on their conversation

Yeah....

And the interview after that, too!

Yeah, but tyhe stage and thye mic...

5: We'll watch over him?

Yeah, alright

Pag 7

1: Roku-chan, who got there before us

….. yeah

4: The dream of participating in a national competition

5: Let's do it, somehow, in the next two years

…. yeah

Pag 8

1: Huuuh.. !?

A training camp!?

2: Starting from early next week

We asked you to come here during lunch break to prepare for that

On... what a fresh reaction!!

3: We have to load a lot of things in the car!

Ehhh.. isn't the training camp held here?

4: It's so fresh indeed, first years are so cute

It's a certain place

Where will we go? Yeah, where are we going, teh

5: And the practice menu is hell....

Pag 9

1: Nii-chan!! Nii-chan

Ah, you're right, you're right

2: I'oll tell the first years, so please don't tell them – they'll be like “huh- 1000km!?”

Every year, hearing the first years' reaction is the climax haha

Got it, got it- “every year”?

3: It's a secret

4: Ohhh... it's going to last four days?

It says we have to0 run 1000km

How much is 1000km?

5: Whose are those leaflets?

Ah... Onoda-san made them so it would be easy to understand... so he said

Ehhh

Sorry.... Kaburagi

Pag 10

1: Can you come to the training camp?

Danchiku

Pag 11

3: You've been following a different practice menu these days, and even though you say” I'm fine, it's nothing” when I ask you...

4: What are you talking about?

You didn't even come to the qualifiers

5: That's because I had to look after the other first years' practice...

It's been bothering me for a while

6: That.... that's just.... ah, in just a short while...

It's just muscular pain!! So I asked Onoda-san for a different practice menu

How long is a short while

Pag 12

2: “Since after last autumn's race on Minegayama”

“My joints have been hurting”

3: Well, you know... not that much

4: This is the price.... for sure

5: Even though I practiced

6: Because somehow I ended up winning

Pag 13

1: In a big tournament that attracts the attention of the prefecture!!

And moreover, against Hakogaku's Shinkai Yuuto....!!

2: But maybe it's going to heal soon

It'll heal heal soon

3: The pain is fading!!

Mybe it's going in a good direction!!

4: Danchiku.... that “muscular pain”

5: My bad feeling about it started last year

6: After the race on Minegayama

Issa!!

….!? Issa's intuition, more than anyone....!!

Pag 14

1: Onoda-san said that they'll choose the definitive team members at the training camp

If you don't come to the training camp you won't become a member for sure

3: If you come and don't run, it's the same

5: In Team SS... our “special strong” wqas aiming for results in the Inter High

Pag 15

1: Next yeaqr it'll be too late because I'pll become captain and be busy

Cap.....

He'll become captain?.... he alreqady decided.... on his own accord?

To run freely in the Inter High, it has to be this year!! As second years

It can only be this year!!

2: And also, I can't do it alone

6: The reason for you bad condition

Go to the hospital and get it checked

7: And come tell me the results right away!!

Pag 16

1: See ya

2: Issa!!

5: I'll come to the training camp!!

I'll stand on the start line and run together with you!! That's my intention!!

Pag 17

1: I'll do everything I can!!

No matter what the final result is!!

3: Thank you, Danchiku. I wanted to hear those words today

4: Do your best

7: Issa.... I.... I already went so many times to the hspital

Pag 18

1: But I was told that “it's nothing”

2: It should be nothing, but I feel so uncomfortable on my bike, and I don't have much time

My body, too

3: I feel a dull pain

4: So I feel helpless.....!!

Pag 19

2: On!! Teru- nii-chan!!

3: I don't really understand math, help me please

6: Pfui

7: 49.... 50....

Pag 20

1: Yeah, math? Alright, Sadatoki

The training camp is close, so....

2: With bikes, you have to hold the handles, so the strength in your upper body is also important

All skillful cyclists can use their upper body well

3: The team members will be chosen during training camp, so I have to do what I have to do

In order to become the sixth member

4: The sixth....!!

He's sweating so much.... on

5: I'll run with Imaizumi this year

It's the last Inter High after all

hi guys my lower back hurts like a mf and the world almost ended 9 times today but it didn't and im okay and it's fine and having an anxiety disorder is stupid as fuck. lol. LMFAO even

#so basically. #bc my usual commute involves train -> bus -> ride home from bus stop #and my dad who usually gets me isnt able to this week #i had to rely on someone else to get me but their work doesn't end till 7 #so i left uni at 4 and was like damn what am i doing for 3 hours? #(not fucking studying) (too tired 4 that bc i already spent 4.5 hours studying) #so i went grocery shopping alone. lol. for fun. it was scary #i got lost on my way there because i had to take two different buses and walk in a different part of the city #it was a diff suburb i was confused #every time i was on the verge of panic crying i figured out how to proceed with the situation bc it worked itself out conveniently #i survived. #z.post

when taylor swift said I never grew up it's getting so old. yeah

oh yeah i started watching extraordinary attorney woo and by god it deserves the praise.

i was kinda hesitant jumping in because i thought it would be a VERY stereotypical “autistic genius” trope but it’s actually really good at representing the full autistic experience. i could honestly go on and on about what they did well (illustrating how special interests are a means of processing the world, body language that’s so accurate that the main character has one of the exact same stims as me, explicit use of terms like echolalia and teaching the audience what it means, the fact that it’s female autistic rep in the first place); but what hits most was her monologue in the first episode.

i can’t stop thinking about it. she talks about how she’s viewed as both a genius and an idiot; a genius because of her good grades and technical intellect, but an idiot because she struggles with understanding certain implicit things (like the timing of entering revolving doors). and god it hit so hard. it’s probably the best i’ve ever seen my personal experience with autism represented. having a 4.0 and honors isn’t going to save you from not knowing how to navigate crowds or social situations; in some situations you feel smarter than everyone around you, and in others you’re the most clueless.

#zero.txt #i never watch tv but i’m now in love with a show #extraordinary attorney woo #actuallyautistic #i was thinking about it again bc i’m thinking about how in less than two months i’ll be on a plane to shibuya #and i’m not worried about gathering data for my thesis. that’s the easy part. #i’m worried about riding the trains. even in new york’s subway when i was left alone i got so confused and frustrated i staeted sobbing #like the fear and frustration of not being able to navigate things easily alone because of how your brain reacts so intensely

Also, maan, thinking about Heather in Have Dragon Will Travel having that convo with Astrid where she asks if Hiccup and her are a thing, but like... that but Heather asking if Astrid and the Dragon Riders are a thing.

Same reaction, the axe throwing getting messed up, definitely.

But also, as super fun as Heather testing the waters and being like, yeah, I vibe with Fishlegs and Snotlout's not my type, it's even more fun if Heather straight-up is like, "Girl, did you catch feelings for them or?"

And Astrid just like... how????

Another reason I need a job is my fam still does Italian American Family Dinner™️ on Sunday afternoons and I want to start going once every few weeks.

#not me riding the train for three hours to see my family for a day #how….america pilled #I will though I haven’t been a regular at family dinner for a decade #my sister has to debate my dad alone #well actually no our coalitions are all fucked up now

Y'all I am so tired. So unbelievably tired of people abusing the civil rights of disabled people. Tired of having to assume that every single dog we unvested in public (and half the ones with cheaper vest options) are at best untrained and at worst fully aggressive. I'm exhausted from having businesses tell me they "can't do anything" about fake service dogs, dirty pets, aggressive dogs, and dogs in shopping carts.

It is so so so DRAINING to be trying to do the best I can with my SDiT and end up triggering my issues because I'm forced to be hypervigilant literally Every Single Time we go into non pet friendly spaces.

And I know. I. KNOW. That fully trained service dogs are extremely good at ignoring distractions (including other dogs). Hell my girl is 18mo and she's doing great in that regard.

But pets being where pets don't belong is dangerous. It's abusive to dogs who aren't prepared to be in stressful environments. It's a potentially lethal distraction for disabled people who rely on service dogs. An attack can be career ending for SDiT.

So please. Please please please. If you take your pet into SD Only places: STOP

If you know someone who does this: educate them and irritate and pester them until they STOP

Leave. Your. Pets. At. Home

KJ Charles, absolutely nobody was going around calling Black and brown people "people of colour" in the 1800s. They were called and called themselves "coloured people". It's relevant that the only terminology they had was subtly Othering and coined by whites. Nobody is going to go into vapours if 19th century characters use it. Stop jolting me out of your otherwise very good stories with self-conscious rummage for modern PC terms.

Also for the love of God just say "black" instead of pussy-footing around going "dark skinned". I can't tell who's Indian, Black or Portuguese with this shit. It's a racial and political identity, not a dirty word.

#white people are just #sigh #can y'all be normal for five minutes #afaik both indians and africans used to be called 'black' in the UK #indian ocean slavery was relatively lower key but outlasted atlantic ocean slavery for decades #Ghandi was a lawyer and was forced to ride on the train roof instead of being allowed to share a train car with colonials in his own country #whites didnt give a shit whether or not queen victoria had the offspring of sellout indian royalty as godchildren #all coloured colonized people were savages to them #they barely treated white jews poles and mediterranean europeans as real people let alone asians and africans and aboriginals #racism #british history #historical fiction #queer historical fiction #kj charles #knee of huss

Bye you fuckers

#going to kraków now... #second time ever going by train alone... feels scary #thats how adult life is like baby. you gotta ride the cool train to meet your online friends younhavent seen in almost 5 years

Aw man, chances are slim I'll be going to Käärijä's first European tour (it's all far away from me).

Hope you guys enjoy it tho, I'll be there in spirit and watching everyone's recorded videos of his concerts. 🥺💚

#potentially Amsterdam is a possibility since my brother lives in the Netherlands but thats still a +12 hours train ride from Serbia #Munich is like a 4-5 hour drive via car/bus from Prague but i still hate going alone for a concert #so unless someone from my friends wants to see him I don't think I'll go to another country alone 😞 #dia talks #käärijä #currently feeling like that Squidward meme where he's watching Spongey n Patrick from out of the window #but its me not being able to travel to another country and people who already live in said countries for the concert 😭 #seriously though im glad for the start of his Europe tour. Now lets all hope he's gonna have a bug fat Christmas break in December #Kärtsäri needs his winter hibernation and so do we

Little Book Review: Mexican Gothic

Author: Silvia Moreno-Garcia.

Publication Date: 2020.

Genre: Gothic horror.

Premise: Noemí Taboada, a vivacious and intellectually curious heiress in 1950s Mexico City, receives a strange letter from her beloved older cousin Catalina, who hastily married a man of English descent and moved deep into the countryside. Sharing Noemí's concerns about Catalina's welfare and suspecting the husband of being a fortune hunter, Noemí's father sends her to Catalina's place to feel out the situation and possibly get Catalina some help. The situation, it turns out, is weird as hell.

Thoughts: I first heard about this book from a few different mutuals with demonstrated good taste in literature, so I figured it'd be pretty good. I didn't expect that it would fulfill all my dreams of being wigged the hell out. I was deliciously disturbed, in a way that I've rarely been since childhood. It was wonderful to experience the same chills that I felt when reading Among the Dolls or that Mary Poppins story where Jane gets trapped inside a china plate. God, it's so fucked up. I love it.

There's also a disarmingly tender love story and a delightful heroine. I like that she genuinely loves talking to people and finding the thing that makes them open up. I don't think that's a super-rare trait--I'm no social butterfly, but I always enjoy seeing someone light up because I asked about their pet hedgehog or whatever--but I don't see it a whole lot in protagonists.

Hot Goodreads Take: I don't claim to be an expert on Mexico in the 1950s, but I don't think that "it might as well be set in 2020" just because Noemí rides on a train by herself and sometimes uses cuss words. Also, shoutout to the poor reader who thinks Moreno-Garcia supports eugenics because the most obviously gross villain thinks they're neat. Noemí, the heroine, is right there in the scene where he's saying this, thinking, "Ugh, this guy is so fucking gross and racist."

#as we all know it only became socially acceptable for a woman to ride a train alone in 1993 #due to awareness of the issue raised by soul asylum's runaway train #(people weren't listening closely to the lyrics) #little book review #mexican gothic #silvia moreno-garcia
