Interurban Era

Why are they worried about profitability? I was hoping that was a uniquely American unhealthy fixation.

Unfinished wood coach with a narrow vestibule.

A little bit of work last night but important work nontheless. Found a design for the doors I can live with.
The doors themselves are Bitter Creek castings.
Now to make the other end match.

No, it doesn't have the joy of inspiration behind it. It's merely slop pushed out to mimic "h u m a n m u s I c" and doesn't hit the mark.

I'm glad I'm not the only one going insane. Found a prolific synthwave artist, but then realized it's 100% AI slop. It's so disappointing.

I hate the feeling of betrayal when I discover it's AI meant to dupe you.

Post the trains!

They should go to THE therapist for that! ☝️🧐

Bold to assume it's not just LLM garbo he filled in a few madlibs style blanks into! 🤣

You're probably correct on both counts.

Because "the" implies a place you spend time. "The library, the store", or for unlucky Angelinos, "the 405" is a place people spend more time sitting than anywhere else. 🤣

Whenever this is all over, the Trade Commision is going to discover tens of billions of dollars skimmed off the top of tarriff surcharges by the major package handling companies.

Another city suckered into not building a rail network.

Crazy to think Solano Avenue once looked like this!

Drivers pounding, an ATSF passenger train thunders into still undeveloped Albany, hissing past the Masonic Ave Tower. Built in 1911, the Tower ensured the safety of ATSF trains and Southern Pacific interurbans.

21st century in a nutshell: paying more money each year for worse products and services, some of which are designed to entrap us one way or another.

How is it? This looks like an S tier book!

This is ironically one of my favorite comic panels of all time. That's why I don't entirely write him off, but yeah, my gut is telling me something about him.

@artofcoop.bsky.social I think you could probably explain his appeal? What are your thoughts on him?

Robert Crumb has always creeped me out, and not in the deliberate way he was intending with this writing/art style.

His work doesn't seem to have aged well. People still go crazy for his work though, maybe I'm missing something?
