  • I don’t think most people under the age of 80 know, but I grew up around old bastards and am into antiques so it just kinda stuck out to me.

    Have a rather fancy ice box from the 1890s that would’ve used metal shelves you put ice between which would then cool and keep an insulated cubbard chilled refrigerating the food within, between that and the fact it had a hose to drain the cold water which gather in a lower sub area as the ice melted it’d be about as good as a modern ice chest though you’d have to fill it with new ice every morning. Though it’s currently being used for clothes storage.







  • Well that and about 4 other things. Off the top of my head I can list Boomers being vaguely fucked up because they were raised by PTSD riddled veterans who were not taken care of who also had the same exact issue, lead in fucking everything because why not, and also a continuous propaganda campaign going on fifty fucken years, and let’s just chuck cold war paranoia leading to the dumbest economic decisions possible. Honestly if I saw a mushroom cloud on the horizon I may actually think it’s a good thing, hell maybe we’d get lucky and trigger an ice age to stall global warming.
