adhdheather:

honestly ships that like……start out w a guy and girl when the guy constantly harasses and tries to ‘win’ the girl’s heart and the girl is uncomfortable w this and not interested in the guy

and then through the course of the plot the girl has to interact more and more w the guy and eventually after seeing him for Who He Is falls in love and then they live happily ever after

are some of my All Time Least Fave Ships. like its creepy how common that narrative is and how theres a huge message of “dont give up and ull get the girl even if she constantly pushes u away” and how if the guy doesnt get the girl, the girl’s always the one ppl get mad at

Turtles Saved From Sudden Death Thanks To New Train Lanes

Turtles were responsible for 13 train disruptions in Kyoto and Nara between 2002 and 2014, according to the Asahi Shimbun.

So the West Japan Railway Company and Suma Aqualife Park, Kobe’s municipal aquarium, teamed up to find a solution: passageways under the tracks that allow the creatures to cross without being turned into turtle soup by a passing train or causing travel delays.

“The system prevents turtles from
getting into accidents and avoids causing trouble for our passengers. We
hope to continue using it,” a JR West official told The Japan Times.
