Ancient t-shirt

Old shirt

Old (not quite as old as my Nuclear War t-shirt, but still pretty old) enough so that I need to start taking extra care of it, including not wearing it except during Pride month. I suspect that it’s irreplaceable now, so I need to coax it along until I die 40 years down the line (offer not valid if the fascists provoke a nuclear war or global pandemic) and don’t need it anymore.

A better paint scheme for a Tri-Met bus

Pride bus

Because

  1. queer, and
  2. it reminds me of the KCS bicentennial paint scheme.

(This bus was painted for today’s Pride parade, and trailed a gratifyingly large collection of Tri-Met employees.)

Pointless signage?

Not for mailing bicycles

I suspect that even without the helpful signs nobody’s going to try to wedge a bicycle into either of those mail slots: Even the teeniest folding bike isn’t compact enough to fit into a letter-sized opening.

power failure mite

Still life with Dust Mite and camp lantern (we had a power failure, and it’s about a 6 second exposure to get this photo so everything had to be still to cut down on blur.)
