I Googled If There Was A Symbol For Autism For My Profile Pic, And The First Thing That Came Up Was The

I googled if there was a symbol for autism for my profile pic, and the first thing that came up was the puzzle piece ribbon. At first I thought it was just a cheezy metaphor, but then as I scrolled I found that it wasn't actually all that well liked. When I clicked on one of the pictures saying the ribbon was bad it lead me to an article why, and after a bit of reading and thinking, I agree. Even if the puzzle piece wasn't implying that we're broken and need "assembling", I came to the realisation that I still feel sort of insulted by the child-like approach, so that's why I like the gold infinity ring instead. I hope they change that ribbon, because I do want to wear one to maybe an event local to me someday.

ngl I thought the puzzle piece as an autistic symbol meant like. I am a vital puzzle piece to your society. humans would never have invented half the things they did without us. you're telling me it means I'm missing something?? buddy. listen. listen to me reeeeaal closely. no human has all the pieces to humanity. no one. no one has all the features enables no one has all the strengths weaknesses or quirks. no one has a whole puzzle. we make the freaking complete picture together. that's the freaking point.

Holy hot sauce! Trampy coming in with a musical in Gordon's voice, and it just fits so well for his character in a railway series context. Some of the comments I've seen are saying if this was Gordon at the end of his career and I'd have to agree, this sounds like a senior Gordon who has lived his life, and is letting the newer engines take over. 100/10 Trampy, you've given Gordon's personality justice.

How do I boop people? I wanna give my effection to my lovely mutuals!

Next, Zeb!

And some extras of his outfit.

Zeb's necklace was a gift from Sunshine as a welcome to the fleet, he holds it very dear to him.

Because Zeb made the majority of the former zeds new star uniforms as well as some upgrades for the others, Zeb's own new uniform is a little lackluster. He loves it though, claiming he's never liked formal wear anyhow. (Which surprised the others considering how well he makes them.)

Zeb didn't bother making new pants for his uniform, he wears his old zed uniform pants since they still keep to colors on the star fleet.

Zeb's started to grow his hair out, saying he missed being able to style it when he was younger.

Zeb's still having trouble of letting go of old habits, he's made hidden pockets on the inside of his shirt. When he realised what he did after the shirt was finished the others saw him facepalm seemingly for no reason.

Busy, busy! I got a whole train weekend vacation coming up! Okay, so tomorrow is a special day at the miniature railway where I volunteer at, we're having a special event going on so that means we'll be running night trains! We're gonna be open from I think 11am to 10pm, with it ironically enough being in the middle of a heatwave as we watch summer supposed to be dying off LOL. Then after that on labour day, I'll be going to the Newport railway workshops! I'll get to see more of the big boys in person! Which means more pictures! And this time I'll be sure to get a few more video's in, it'll be grate! Idk if they'll steam any of the engines up... propably not since it'll be close to the 40s tomorrow (thats 104*F for those who read farienhieght).

Anywho! Hot day with hot trains! I'm probably gonna come to uni the next day with a sunburn though 😅, wish me luck! Or comment you wanna see me look like an ugly prawn. Vote now!

Apparently I'm a liar and got both D10 and Gordon finished quicker than I thought, so here's Diesel 10! Or his real name- Dominion Thrown. The tattoo on his arm glows and it travels over his shoulder to down his back, here is what it looks like normally-

10 has been brought on to assist Gordon with the express while he's been dealing with family stuff, he's not happy about it but finds himself fascinated with 10 for some reason. The were-creatures on the island however tend to stay clear of him, and the other mythos don't know why.

Diesel 10 is available for asks...
