the apex of the aqueduct, canal and tow path in foreground

"how did it work under capitalism" it was state funded "ah" heh
honkbal
there's a "from vox pop to vox unc" joke here i'm sure of it
The motto of the modern tech industry is "You can just do things to people"
sad little cowboy cat doodle, written text around it reads: “i’ve got no yeehaws left”
fusion mince and tatties
still working out how to describe it "brubeck surf rock fugue pop" seems apt but "ratatat tabarnac" has better mouth feel
