My mother was always particularly paranoid about trains

She always says it's better to take a bus instead and I'd make fun of her. Now a passenger train crashed and made international news. Before the crash, a passenger called his family telling them they were close and they could go pick him up, reminds me how I always do that when I visit mine.

Disgusted by this country for real.
