A map of Interstate 5 in Seattle. Marked by red arrows and lines is the full closure of the northbound I-5 mainline between I-90 and Northeast 45th Street in Seattle. Handwritten text on the screen notes the interstate is closed in the northbound directions from July 18th to 21st. Cute animals with WSDOT hard hats occupy various spaces on the screen. Text boxes near them say we're here to soften the blow and is it working?

The time has come to Revive I-5. NB I-5 in Seattle between I-90 & NE 45th St will CLOSE starting at 11:59p on Friday, July 18, through 5a Monday, July 21.
The express lanes will be NB ALL WEEKEND & beyond. WB I-90 exit to NB I-5 will close.

a hand holding up a Lumon MDR badge, blue with raindrop logo, camera is looking down, photographer is wearing a blue skirt and white button up shirt

in 2023 some friends and I lurked around Emerald City Comic Con as generic Lumon employees

I don't think anyone noticed us :(

an old box that has a stylized globe logo with a company name across it that says HUBBELL it looks a hell of a lot like the LUMON logo from Severance

omg i love it

it sucks that this is the current state of things. as far as i can tell, neither platform in their current state feels really "ready" to take on what the old site was.

i really do not like that account migrations between instances lose all your posts
it's so bad

yeah, that's entirely fair. it's also not exactly friendly to the average non-tech user. instances? migrating accounts? ugh.

_most_ of the people I regularly interact with are there, so that's where I mostly am, but I still come peek at Bluesky and occasionally Post

i wish it had circles or private accounts
at this point i'm much better served for Posting by my vast array of mastodon accounts

this rocks

the fictional mermaidmyths.com from S1E5 of H2O: Just Add Water it has some mermaid clipart on it and a bunch of random text from a newsletter from the 1990s

recreation of the site Columbus reported that he saw three mermaids on his first voyage to the Americas. On January 4, 1493, according to Purchas, the admiral observed in his log that the female forms "rose high out of the sea, but were not as beautiful as they are represented." The creatures were probably dolphins or manatees, but Columbus, like other mariners of his day, was ready to see new marvels in every latitude. His mind was conditioned by medieval illustrations, fables, travelers' accounts, and astrological prophecies about unseen territories far beyond the familiar coastlines of Europe. The historian Arciniegas points out that Columbus's favorite book was Cardinal Pierre D'Ailly's Imago Mundi, a preposterous description of the unknown world by an early 15th century "new age" philosopher. If, as D'Ailly claimed, the lands of the "other hemisphere" were inhabited by giants, pygmies, dog-faced savages and Amazons, the seas around these could very likely teem with seductive creatures, half woman, half fish.

whoa cool orb

none of it's perfect, the font on the header is off, I'm sure some alignments and scalings are messed up, but it's up on GitHub if you want to contribute to my silly and largely pointless project of recreating a website that shows up for two seconds in a 20 year old show no one remembers

it's specifically in Season 1 Episode 5, btw
