On three separate occasions during the fall and winter, reporters witnessed Norfolk Southern trains blocking intersections leading to an elementary, a middle and a high school for four, six and seven hours.

State lawmakers have tried to curb blocked crossings by restricting the lengths of trains. Since 2019, in Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas, Georgia, Nebraska, Virginia, Washington, Arizona and other states, lawmakers have proposed maximum lengths of 1.4 to about 1.6 miles. (There is no limit now, and trains have been known to stretch for 2 or more miles.) Every proposal has died before becoming law.

"our flag means death what we do in the shadows and good omens should be the new superwholock" WRONG our flag means death black sails and pirates of the caribbean should be the new superwholock except now they're all pirate media with canonically queer people in them. like I cannot BELIEVE how soon you people forgot that jack sparrow is literally canonically gay divorced

like okay to elaborate on this obviously they couldn't go super explicit because this was disney in 2003, but in the original idea for the film jack and captain barbossa were like. confirmed as having been in a relationship and while a lot of it was obviously cut what you need to know about the original pirates of the caribbean set was that it was like. almost lawless so some of that did make it through to the film like for example this line

and just in how the two of them interact with each other like in this shot for example

and we see more of this in the later movies like this bit in at world's end

sorry for the long post I'm just very passionate about this and literally no one talks about this for some reason. like my darling tumblerinas gay pirates have been real since 2003
