I see all these old pics of women and I really wish we could go back to women being thin and without tats and a bunch of plastic surgery.

To me it’s just way more attractive to see a woman that’s fit and in her natural beauty

Those are cone ice cream cup holders. You could get a dollop of ice cream for about a nickel.

Damn, I can vividly remember that stupid hairstyle for women. The Beehive it was called. They could hide a toaster under that pile of hair.

I can't help but think what it would look like if just one of those balls on the bottom row were to break loose.

I like those tan lines. Makes me think I’m looking at something I’m not supposed to see.

Nice array of photos.

1903. Luna Park, Coney Island. 250,000 lights. (using pre-existing Olde World aethereal tech and Olde World infrastructure.)

The electric worked because it was extracted from the aether/atmosphere via those towers and its many little protrusions/receptors (buried / hidden tech)

The exact same kind of photos exist from the late 1800s - early 1900s, seen at all the World's Fair Exhibitions for a last peek of the prior civilization; Until they -- like Luna Park -- were all burned down / knocked down.

1893 Chicago World Fair when Nikola Tesla and George Westinghouse awed the world by lighting up the area, winning the battle of the currents and proving A/C was safer and more effective than Edison’s D/C current. From this point on our modern grid was built around A/C

I have a curious, inexplicable fascination with old world's fairs.

Currently reading a book on Chicago 1933, sort of a followup to Devil In The White City.
