a gold stripe on each smokestack of a @ferries.wsdot.wa.gov vessel means that it has served us in Washington for *50 years*! This is one of the smokestacks of the M/V Kaleetan, launched in 1967.

Pneumatic tubes? In this economy?!
If you're in healthcare, yes! Every hospital has tubes. They’re labyrinthian & networked & cool.
At Tube Talk, I talked with those who make them and those who run them. Give it a read below! #tubetalkmedia #pneumatictubes

Pneumatic tube systems are thriving in the healthcare industry. And while the technology is an old one, the hospital systems have recent innovations that make it state of the art.

This raccoon has something stuck in its mouth or on its teeth, as it works to clear that, we get a great view of a raccoon's teeth.
Always interesting to see these sorts of things on video.

I've gotten all the parts of my whippits wind chime put together, and it's a breezy day, so it's a good time to test it out.
It sounds good! Now i just need to strip the labels off and paint the tanks.

Look at the bed size of this thing
As part of its recovery from a near-death experience, Chrysler surprised US buyers with the launch of a new small fwd car-derived pick-up, the Dodge Rampage (with a Plymouth Scamp version also briefly offered). This 1983 Canadian brochure called it 'the distinctively different Dodge'. #weirdcarbs

I am enchanted by this 1896 photograph of a French woman cyclist. Paul Seesequasis is an Indigenous Canadian curator, and I recommend following him on Bluesky.
