Like a neutron star, I am collapsing in existential dread. In an attempt at stabilization, I'm reaching for inspiration from a movie I once watched alone in my room on magic mushrooms.

Happy holidays.

Over the last few years, we’ve lost some of my favorite old signage. This week’s video is on LIP-PAN TV, a Chene Street institution that had cool signs until last year. Check it out: youtu.be/0xuA6ppn7EI #Detroit #GhostSign

The Chelsea Clocktower (b.1907) was originally the water tower for the Glazier Stove Company. Located across the street from the Jiffy Mix elevator, this complex once produced microbrews and teddy bears 🧸🍻

Check your pantries! Jiffy has been producing cornbread mix out of this facility in Chelsea, MI since 1930. Their original slogan was "so easy a man could do it!"

I deleted my post about the ICE operation in Clarkston, Oakland County Michigan because I made a knee-jerk assumption that they were trying to detain children at school.

Regardless, an ICE operation has schools in lockdown. No one should be subject to that level of fear.
