Absolutely. Me too.

“Nobody’s going to want to sit on high-speed rail for fifteen hours to get from New York City to LA.”

Me. I will sit on high-speed rail for fifteen hours. I’ll sit on it for days. I’ll write and read and nap and eat and then do it all over again. I’ll stare out the windows and see America from ground level and not have to drive. I’ll see the Rockies and the deserts and cornfields and the Mississippi River and your house and yours and yours too. I’ll make up stories in my head about the small towns I see as we go along. I’ll see the states I’ve yet to see because driving or flying there is a fucking slog and expensive to boot. I’ll enjoy the ride as much as the destination. And then I’ll do it all over again to come the fuck home.

We are one month away from Alastair Appreciation Month! My name is Pandora and I am taking over for Nad! So hopefully I live up to everyone’s expectations! Next week there’ll be a post about Alastember and it will be a guideline the yearly celebration of Alastair Carstairs!

Rail route of the month: the drama of an Alpine epic from Zurich to Graz.

This exhilarating, nine-hour journey trundles through the Swiss and Austrian Alps and soars to more than 1,000 metres above sea level as it crosses the Rhine-Danube watershed.

May I also recommend Songs from the Shore?

'Merman and sailor' au with a fair share of angst, happiness, and coffee!

I'm starving for more Thomastair content!! Besides your amazing fic, do you have any thomastair fics recommendations?

the fandom is pretty small, so there’s not a ton out there, but here are my best recs!

10 Things I Hate About You — Unfinished but cute

Cute, sexy, short but sweet

Adorable, witty, Alastair raises baby carstairs and Thomas is his kindergarten teacher au, but tragically unfinished

Hilarious, sexy, one of my comfort fics!

poetic and so sweet!

One of my all-time faves, go to comfort fic, i love it so much 🥰 (coffee shop au)

adorable, fluff, short but sweet!!!

‘and there was only one bed!!!’ au

lastly, one of my favorites. bittersweet, on point, and so, so beautifully written, it’s short but it will make your heart twist like taffy in your chest.

of course, there are many more good works out there, and i may have missed some, but these are just a few of my favorites off the top of my head!!!

public transit where possible.

[betterworldrebel]

#01 public transportation When it comes to sustainable and eco friendly ways to get from A to B, people always yell 'bike'. Well often, bikes won't work, the places are too far apart, it is raining or we have to look nice when we arrive, so we ditch the bike and go by car. But there is a solution: public transit offers a wonderful way to get where you want, especially if you live in a city. Let's do it like the New Yorkers do and take the subway. Or the bus, whenever possible.

There's a substantial part of me that truly believes GUTS to be Olivia Rodrigo's (and the entire music industry's) contribution to Alastember.

Giving you my honest opinion… I and nor does Lore ( @thrxughthenxght ) listen to Olivia Rodrigo. We’ve never associated her music with anything TSC related as well, sorry���

BUT

Let’s get the opinions of the lovely people who are celebrating Alastember with us 🎉🥳

Like if you agree with GUTS relating to Alastair!

Reblog, if you do or if you don’t agree and explain why! We would love to hear everyone’s opinions!!!!

Tagging the taglist for this one!
