Just a pile of random unrelated stuff. The raccoon poster was the result of asking Grok for an image based on my Xwitter account.

Apocalypse Food
This machine was found inside an abandoned underground cold food storage facility by urban explorers who documented the discoveries during an expedition into the derelict complex. From Grok:
The facility is the former Americold underground warehouse (a converted limestone mine) in Kansas City, Kansas. It was once described as the world’s largest underground cold-storage facility. A fire started there on December 28, 1991, and burned for months; at the time it held about 245 million pounds of food. Large sections were later abandoned and left to decay.
Graveyard of Molds
Littering the field behind the workshop of giant-building firm Fiberglass Animals, Shapes, and Trademarks (FAST) is an eerie collection of titanic molds, left over from almost every job
they’ve ever done. FAST specializes in creating giant, eye-grabbing figures and items, the likes of which one might see outside of kitschy roadside restaurants and gas stations across the country. After a job, the company keeps the mold and stores it in the field out back. Now there are hundreds of giant, unpainted forms scattered all across the lot in every imaginable variety and shape.
