Abt switch
The Abt switch is a kind of railway switch used on funiculars (inclined cable railways) that doesn’t have any moving parts. It allows two cars to pass each other going uphill/downhill while sharing the same tracks. While most train switches rely on physically moving a section of track so the train goes one way or the other, the abt switch doesn’t move at all. Instead each carriage has a grooved wheel which makes it turn left or right at a junction by sticking to the track on one side.

No worries, you aren’t being shitty. Adding on your own takes is the point of a comment thread.
But yeah, having your stealth be pierced through can be quite scary. Buy everything about this process is scary when one does it with 0 support from other irl people.

Thank you
Yea ngl I’m not sure if scary is a strong enough word. I do not want that to happen to me.
Being alone irl sucks bad :meow-hug:

Low key I think about killing myself to avoid that phase a lot, I just hate the thought of that so much, fuck.

I think it is inevitable. There is a limit to how much I can keep myself in an isolated bubble. How can I call myself a socialist if I don’t even socialise
I just wish there was a way for me to unpack my trauma and self-loathing
I know that I can be a pretty cool gal, when I get my rare moments of peace and clarity.
