  6. So, #PortlandMaine used to have a beautiful train station (built in 1880) -- but demolished it in 1961 to build a #StripMall! Now Portland is going to build a new train station (while taking down a some houses -- not that Portland has housing crunch or anything like that /sarc) and some open space -- because tearing down the strip mall that was in the original spot isn't economically feasible. Such a waste... But there was so much of that during so-called #UrbanRenewal.

  11. Spent the first part of Saturday with a list of errands. Things started off shaky with a failure to get some accounts configured at the bank (they are better prepared / staffed Monday-Friday).

    Popped in the mall* to kill time and pick up wired EarPods. The wireless variety fall out of my ears and annoy me when I shake my fist at clouds.

    Next was a hunt for a very specific birthday gift at a second hand store and turning up bupkis.

    Lunch Torchy’s Tacos afterward eased the disappointment. The Austin-based chain recently opened an outpost in the outer ring burbs of Cincinnati. We understand why it was packed as the tacos and green chile queso were extremely good.

    This put us in direct line of appliance stores to check out dishwashers. They’re all silver boxes with slight variations on handle design.

    * Kenwood Towne Centre now has a Sock Emporium and I feel like this is the a nail in its coffin

  14. Went out to have lunch at The Kabob Shop in #encinitas today, and sat at a table outside. The "mall" music (it's in a #stripmall kinda) was #blacksabbath .

    It was a good lunch experience.

  19. I took a #photo of a #stripmall in the neighborhood and added a few effects in @photoshopexpress. I had to go back and forth a few times to get this desired effect. #art #digitalart #photshopart #photographyart #artistofinstagram #photographyeffects📷

  21. Dear Friends,
    Images of commercial American landscapes are often interpreted within a narrative of a pathology of sickness at the heart of culture. This is a very difficult narrative to get past. When I make an image like this, I'm not saying this is ugly or needs fixing. It's just what I saw and recreated in a way appealing to me. It is what it is and what it came from.
    Carry on!
