In English, we say, "Flirting."

In TES, we say, "Sorry lass . . . I've got important things to do. We'll speak another time."

I saw someone mentioning this on Twitter and I just. can't stop thinking about it.

So at the start of Journal 3 we find an entry about giant "vampire" bats.

Ford, buddy, you aren't fooling anyone.

I think tasting your own blood when you get a minor injury and it bleeds is a pretty common thing, so I'm not sure why he's trying to convince us he's never tried it?????? Like, my guy, you didn't have to make it suspicious, but you did anyway. Now I'm concerned.

(Also, a really bad job of convincing us he never tasted human blood. If you're going to erase that part, maybe erase the whole sentence altogether. Like, with just "human blood tasted" we can guess where this is going.)

And I guess having opinions about how good human blood tastes is kinda weird, but knowing the guy it isn't the weirdest thing he's ever thought or done. He burns his own face because it's faster than shaving, for fuck's sake.

AND THEN IT GETS EVEN WORSE.

MORE THAN USUAL?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN MORE THAN USUAL?????? WHAT THE FUCK.

And the worst part is that they weren't even vampire bats... they were fruit bats... Like he wasn't becoming a vampire or getting weird symptoms from the bite, his brain was just being weird about it.

Actually no, the worst part is that it implies that the desire to taste blood is something he gets... sometimes. Just sometimes though, no need to overanalyze it /j.

In English, we say, "Hello."

In TES, we say, "Hey, you. You're finally awake. You were trying to cross the border, right? Walked right into that Imperial ambush, same as us, and that thief over there."

VR ottaa Sm6 Allergro -junat käyttöön kotimaan liikenteessä / VR starts operating the Sm6 Allergo units in intra-Finnish traffic

Aiemmin Helsingin ja Pietarin välillä liikennöineet Sm6-junat ovat tähän asti olleet VR:n ja Venäjän valtionrautateiden RŽD:n yhteisyritys Karelian Trainsin omistuksessa. RŽD:n laiminlyötyä taloudelliset velvollisuutensa Karelian Trainsiä kohtaan on VR tänään 14.12.2023 lunastanut yhteisyrityksen lainat ja panttioikeuden kautta ottanut kaikki neljä Sm6-junaa haltuunsa.

Sm6-junat ovat olleet käyttämättöminä yli 1½ vuoden ajan liikenteen Venäjälle päätyttyä Venäjän hyökättyä Ukrainaan. Kunnostamisen ja mahdollisen uudelleenbrändäämisen jälkeen junat tulevat VR:n omaan liikenteeseen todennäköisesti vuonna 2025. Sm6-junat perustuvat samaan perusratkaisuun kuin Sm3 Pendolino -yksiköt, joten mahdollisesti – kenties jopa todennäköisesti – ne tulevat liikenteeseen Pendolino-brändin alla.

The Sm6 trains, which previously operated between Helsinki and St. Petersburg, were until today owned by Karelian Trains, a joint venture between VR and the Russian state railway company RŽD. However, as RŽD repeated failed to pay their share of Karelian Trains' expenses, VR today took over Karelian Trains' loans and has taken over the four Sm6 units.

The Sm6's have been unused for 1½ years, as passenger services to Russia ceased as a result of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. After renovation and possibly rebranding, the units will enter service on VR's own routes, likely in 2025. The Sm6 is based on the same platform as the Sm3 Pendolino units already operated by VR, so it is possible – perhaps even likely – they will enter service under the Pendolino brand name.
