Hi I’m Rachel (or “Nyc”). I am always trying new things. I don’t sell anything, so I don’t know where to go with this intro post. I just gather weird knowledge, and make whimsical doodles. ✨

Still laughing about the time I was on the train in Boston and a woman was with her family and they accidentally missed their stop, but she was so delighted because “it’s fine, we can just walk from the next one, plus now I get to show you the COP SLIDE!!!!”
I love that the Boston cop slide never got fixed and now people just willingly go down it in tribute. It’s basically a national landmark at this point

Do you think vampires fly into mirrors the same way birds fly into windows because they can’t see their reflections?

Finished a rewatch of Last Exile series, long term favorite of mine. A weird mix of steampunk / sci-fi where airships serve as boats / submarines in a big ol' class warfare story. Largely character driven, some dodgy 3D since it was made in 2003, but still love this show.

My senior year of high school I made a 30 minute show in TV production class called Spaceman Saves Christmas. It had me flying "over" Frankenmuth, MI to save Santa Claus, had a script written in very poor verse, & the story's villain actually beat me up on camera. I don't think I got a good grade.
