Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.
A crowded broadsheet with way too many fonts. It says:
Forget ChatGPT Flyers
Say it with 
Broadsheets
Unlimited fonts
Stretch them
Or cram a really long sentence into one line for no good reason
No whitespace
Mix capital and lowercase
Pointing hands
(They're called manicules!)
Don't be left behind
Broadsheets are the future

Going insane trying to find a way to get HO scale figures that actually represent diverse places and era-specific clothes... Turns out it's not great that both major figure manufacturers are just Germans - they have more types of nude figures than they have non-white train passengers.

If you're reading this, be the artist, organization, museum, publication, that never ended up using AI. So, after this dumb moment passes, we don't have to look upon you with further suspicions about what other corners you're cutting. Thanks.

You may only think the National Highway System are interstates, but *tons* of urban streets are part of it. This bill would eliminate the bike lanes on Market St in SF, Telegraph Avenue in Oakland, the BRAND NEW 14th St bike lanes in Oakland, and many more key bike corridors.

I don't think this has anything *really* to do with why NYC felt so fake in the movie (when you have to shoot the whole city in a 3-block part of Glasgow, you really don't get the vibe right), but it's absolutely a bad look.

The scale of electric rail transportation even for small communities in the 1920s and 1930s. You had interurbans to towns that couldn't fill a gymnasium and full trolley companies running in places with 10,000 people. (There's a reason they all went out of business, but...)
