Streetcars sometimes got stitched together into weird configurations, but this is definitely one of the strangest that I've seen!

Apart from some early experiments with splicing together old horsecars, Portland only had one real "Frankenstein" car. Known as "the Dragon," it took two old standard cars in 1914 and slung a conductor's vestibule between them. Underpowered and slow, it was not a success.

"Abandoned" railway. Not mine.

Spent rainy weekend on Tinkercad modeling miniature ice freezer and pallets of bagged steer manure and soils.

It's Friday Night!

Salty, Oily Drinking Water Left Sores in Their Mouths. Oklahoma Refused to Find Out Why. State regulators discovered strong signs of oil pollution, including high levels of salt and toxic metals, in one family’s drinking water. But for two years, they repeatedly delayed basic tests to fin...

Tests found barium, which can cause heart and blood pressure problems, at 3x the EPA’s limit in the Boarmans’ drinking water.

But the state did not inform the family of the results for over a month — until @readfrontier.bsky.social and ProPublica requested them.

Peter Witt Los Angeles streetcar, g scale 1:22.

Kit bashed a used LGB train platform for my light rail/streetcar station.

Yasss. I was at home sick today. The President's bullshit cut into my "Price is Right" time.

When the 3D print fits... This gives my heart such satisfaction in this batshit crazy world right now, knowing I have built a my own tea nook.

Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁

#NewBooks for Christmas from my biological father... All about the Salem Witch Trials... For family/historical research. I feel that I am being set up or something.

Gaslight gifts are when you buy yourself an expensive gift and give your spouse credit for it.
"Honey, is that a new necklace?"
"Oh Darling, this was your Christmas gift to me two years ago."
