The Railluminati feat. Gareth Dennis

Yes, but what does it say about Harry Potter fans that everyone believed it without question? :)

I just can't get over the fact that it's called the TBI

I knew EXACTLY what reddit post Hussein was about to read out. Cheese is the House Killer

Looking forward to Well There’s Your Future: No Gods, Gay Rail

no new building projects.. just as well we don't need a massive amount of investment in green energy or retrofitting houses or insulating ot air conditioning anything. thank god that's already all done.

@HKesvani this mf investing in beans

The thing about the platform 9 3/4 is that 1) platforms 9+ are in the new build part of the station, not the main trainshed. 2) patforms 9 and 10 are separated by two sets of tracks so the layout goes: P10 | track | track | P9 | Wall Anyway liberate my beloved station from yoke of HP. Give permenant free tenancy of the shop to a trans charity

I was listening to the last episode of Remember Shuffle about the Eurozone crisis and they mentioned that the UK's economy wasn't really in danger and they didn't have any EU brakes on doing stimulus but the Tories decided to just do austerity anyways for zero reason and now everyone has to live with the consequence of this

Tony Blair heard that Thatcher considered him her greatest achievement and thought 'hmmm, I think I could fuck up the country even worse, thank you'

King’s Crustacean

Stockport mentioned!!!

Moundchestawww

November continues her lifelong geas to MAKE IT MORE RIGID

jack churchill mentioned!!!

Listening to this ep while reading a guardian article about the derailments and randomly saw Gareth got quoted. Also thermal-expansion track buckle is so scary to me. That is real-life Final Destination shit.

I was so mad about the Harry Potter people and now I am so mad that I have to retract my earlier indignation because I love to be given reasons to be mad at people whose entire personality is Harry Potter fandom.

At Palantir the general stance re: being put on trains is it happens to other people

Knife wedgie.

They made a trains shingy

“We’re riding this train, it’s timely arrival at the next station seems inescapable. So did the did the divine right of kings.”

Trashfuture Memory Palace, is this anything? “Cross The Puddle, turn left at Mattie’s Oubliette, down the corridor past the Cheese Room…”

Please no gods no mayors episode with Gareth on that one prefecture mayor in Japan who stopped the maglev train being built for over a decade

"find ways of making Ursula K LeGuinn stories come true" are you investing in Portland area psychotherapists? Cuz it sounds like you're investing in Portland area psychotherapists

You ever see a TF episode title and just know it’s gonna be a banger?

The Co-op pyramid in Stockport is actually what they build for you if you sign up to the top tier of their funeralcare plan

crazy that november can say things like "stimulate the economy by making the train tickets hard" and it passes largely without comment

Vibe coding update: wow, who could have predicted this, apart from everyone who did? https://calnewport.com/on-ai-coding-and-its-discontents/ "He told me that features he generated using Claude Code ended up crashing their product on two different occasions. His boss told him that if it happened one more time, he’d be fired. “I’ve never had quality issues like this before in my career.” The problem is that code produced by an AI agent looks reasonable, but can contain ‘hard-to-spot bugs’ that end up causing major problems. As a result, you should carefully review your agent’s output, but this is difficult. As the engineer told me, it’s “famously hard” to understand code you didn’t write yourself, so this extra step becomes “easy to just blow it off (especially when we are all trying to ‘10x’ our velocity).” Soon, systems start to break." Damn who could have fucking thought this you dipshit? Ah maybe all those people you cunts called "cultish luddites who are terrifyingly disconnected from reality in their attempts to prove AI isn't useful"? Fucking hell computer touchers are so stupid. No wonder Kemi Badenoch used to be one

G unit pulling into the station TOOT TOOT! 🚂

if I may say something positive about a british train; I had cause to be sick into a GWR train toilet the other day, and despite being a dangerously rammed carriage, it was clean enough that I didn't feel revolted.

We had industrial cheque kiting soybean oil fried warehousing now we have blockchain hard cheese field warehousing

that was one hella short beep

As mentioned earlier, Rebecca Watson played the podcast clip of the line planner dude talking about the whole imaginary grave public pressure incident, it's seemingly quite true - not to be a dobby downer or anything ,it just happened a while ago- link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPFS4auVYzE seems like a chill dude though would've been preferred to have caved to public pressure of almost anything else instead (I've justified the repeat post to myself by including the link so uhh, yeah!)

YESSSSS. I knew as soon as I heard the Railnatter episode that there’d probably be an accompanying visit from the Lord Mayor of Transit. Strap in, it’s a Garethsode.

Nova got Duffle Blog'd

How the hell did the episode title not end up being; HOT CHEESE, SUMMER IN THE CITY?!

... on project manager class. Isnt this very thing why the english had wars? send the whole officerial class/scions of the gentry to france or swabia or greece and prune the shrubbery?

Great British Rail @ the Line

the Cheese Bank is a consequence of the depredation on the Peasantry of the peninsula. one can Blame BeMus

Umm Rebeca Watson did looking in and it seems like it did happen. the Naysayers are clearly trying to hide the crimes in cymru and embarassment of england

Cholestorolised Debt Obligations

Nova when I saw the Elf news I felt bad for you but we ALL GOT GOT. Separate cover: Gareth yay!

Thinking about London SciFi novels can we get a left on read about Ken MacLeods debut novel Starfraction a deranged 90's cyberpunk story about libertarians and Trotskyists uniting to fight the one world government and its minions British evangelicals and anti-Semitic deep ecologists

'Cheese arbitration'. Beautiful phrase.

Another reason why that cheddar cheese story could be about Riley: If he'd joined the family business (Quebec, then Ontario finance), he would 100% accept collateral in the form of nondurable luxury goods like cheese or wine.

short video concept: car bonnet raclette

Surely if there is any Le Guin that is paid homage to in Britain (and everywhere really) it's The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelaa

The Wizard Elf Slave Grave story is as snopes would say "mostly true" and there is a lot of contrainism on minor points of some people misunderstanding the details and throwing out the whole story as fake

Capitalism destroys everything, including cheese capitalism.

Gareth should come up with a way to build data centers under rails so the British government might build some

FUCK YEAH! TRAINFUTURE TIME!
