one more thing i can’t explain
The thing is that at some point, making this dinosaur make really good sense to someone. It was maybe even the best idea they’d had in their whole life.
That day was…not the day I was there.

despair has its own rhythm
Every single thing here just looks like despair – the weeds are closing in on the building; most of the windows are boarded up; that porch roof is wavy and collapsing; there’s an abandoned car out back; the stucco is working hard to fall away from the walls. And there are signs telling us that adobe is political.

population
On March 29, 2023, the estimated U.S. population was 336,300,903. So not the 888,888,888 on the sign, then.
But maybe that number is for all of America? According to population estimates provided by the United Nations, on March 28, 2023, the entire Americas have a population of 1,044,633,839. And again, that’s not the 888,888,888 shown.
Do you think there may be a chance that the number is…fabricated?

exhaustion staggers on
I don’t know what this building used to be; all I know is what it is now. And what it is now is abandoned and vandalized. The building seems exhausted by its defeat.
It exhausted me, too, and all I did was stop by for a few photos.

housekeeping
I am sure this isn’t even the weirdest thing I like to photograph, but housekeeping carts are quite photogenic. At least, to me.
