don't worry, you can get the data with only "Discreet" watermarking for the low low price of THIRTY NINE FUCKING DOLLARS A MONTH, which includes a gracious package of 100 image downloads at a stunning 680x680 JPEG resolution.
I whitelisted this fucker from my adblocker but for some reason it still trips at random and hard-blocks all the imagery until I refresh the page, also love the popup that makes it impossible to screenshot anything even when I can fucking see anything behind the obnoxious watermarking
how I feel about the HistoricAerials user experience
at least they're good. I have a friend in NY who says a lot of quaint downtowns are scourged by overpriced little bakeries and donut shops and such that serve some truly dogshit food for high prices 😭
I like to believe the Trudeau is Castro's secret child one because it's really funny.
also in Chicago at least, most of them look like they've been in the same spot for 30 years and so if they don't own their building outright are grandfathered into insanely low rents.
currency converter places also cash checks, have ATMs and coinstar machines (with better hours than banks), handle various city and state stickers (plates and parking passes), and I think also will send money internationally, which is a big thing with immigrants who send money home.
sort of, in the sense a fair number of them are the projects of people who's family or spouse are already wealthy, and they can run the business at a loss for a very long time if not forever. It's basically a hobby, for them.
I think prediction markets should be legal but have a hard federally imposed limit of like $100 spend per month, maybe even less. They should never extend past $5 bullshit bets with your friends territory.
“ussr should’ve stayed together” not an interesting counterfactual. it was only ever the 1820s russian empire plus some satellites. the real question is “would a state called the ussr exist today if lenin had shattered the russian sfsr into 77 pieces like he wanted to”
I'm launching a new Patreon tier that includes health insurance with low copays that's valid in 37 states and Puerto Rico
Atlas Stationers is always a nice visit, lots of pens to test and journals and stickers
I'm having a rough day and its silly but shit like this really makes me tear up
The refurbishment may even make them into reliable transit, possibly even sound transit...
*incredibly loud incorrect buzzer* they are going to Brookville in Pennsylvania, whoops.
funny that the day I listen to the latest episode of @trangirlismo.bsky.social which lampoons SoundTransit's "Sounder" service, I find a set of their cars out in the wild. Idk for sure, but they're likely going north to Talgo in Milwaukee for refurb work.

I think the idea of sunglasses that are also a HUD and headphones is cool and it annoys me that antisocial freaks ruined it for everyone
A business window with old gold and black lettering partially removed, with the remaining letters spelling out "AW F ICE"
Congratulations to whoever took over the lease on this old law office and had an idea
Unholy ?

Early 3D Pokemon renders by Keiji Kinebuchi from the late 1990s that got my brain wired up
some ephemera I found in an old bandaid tin I got from an estate sale. pamphlet on the left is from the National Safety Council, 425 N Michigan Ave, and has a cutout "emergency medical card" in the back you fill out with doctor info, medications taken, severe allergies, etc.

someone suggested instead of painting it or leaving it as is, I could just start papering over the worst stickers with my own. hmmmmm. hmmmmm.
a small clay figure of a little guy, made up of a round body and two feet. it has a small nose and two eyes looking to the side
some kind of creature
lol. nah those were thrown in free with orders, I had a few from my last order years back. Honestly a lot of these stickers were probably freebies.
this thing is decorated like you asked a set decorator to make a "generic liberal college student desk". There's at least two Bernie stickers, multiple logos of programming languages, AOC, the JSTOR logo(?), and my favorite, the short-lived 2020 presidential campaign of NJ senator Cory Booker.
picked up what I assumed was like a $99 Target-Brightroom desk for free off facebook marketplace because A) I needed an arts & crafts workbench and B) thought the density of stereotypical liberal stickers was funny, anyway turns out its like a $300 IKEA desk
