Sentinel posted:In Houston I was doing some work for a company and one of the jobs was at this older black couples house. I read once, and am assuming is true, that Oprah Winfrey has the worlds largest collection of antique blackface curios and knickknacks and such. The pictures accompanying the article showed some pretty horribly offensive poo poo - think worse than the ‘Coon’s Chicken’ poster from Ghost World. The thought that they’re still making a lot of it is pretty terrible.

Dear Watson posted:Turkish delight has dozens of fruits and nuts they add to it I do not believe there are any restrictions on what fruits you may add. When I was a a little kid in the late 70’s/early ‘80’s, they also made Grapelets, which were a little better than A&C, but they didn’t do well and went away.

That Formica with the boomerang-design on it is really neat.

The vacuum cleaner museum closed in April 2019, even before COVID.

I suppose Canadiana also counts, since this place is in BFE, BC.  I’ve driven by it about a hundred times when I used to drive freight for Costco from Oregon to various cities in Canada. Kinda wish I’d have stopped, but I was always in a hurry, trying to get to or from Calgary.

Outrail posted:Are there any super liberal left leaning redneck small towns in nowhere USA? Do the look any different to the rest of rednecklandia? Arcata, California(not to be confused with Arcadia, which is 700 miles away) is about as lefty as you’re going to find, most likely due to the state university being located there. Drum circles in the town square, places selling tie-die, the whole hippie panoply. I’m pretty drat lefty, and although the semi-comprehensible stoned-out hippie rhetoric can grate after awhile, it’s a helluva lot nicer place than, say, Fortuna, 45 minutes down the coast, which is largely populated by right wing ex-loggers.
