hotel breakfast slop. good morning

the “daki” looks fine here… thank you jury rigging

Hotel pillows aren’t firm enough for my fat ass so I’ve settled on using my ‘head’ pillow as the actual head pillow and stuffing in two normal pillows as my daki. It ends up being disjointed anyway but I”m holding the first pillow with my arms and crossing my legs around the second pillow. so close enough. let’s fucking goooooooooooooo

i don’t normally eat potato chips on my own, but, when in Rome…

First stop today was this snack storefront for Better Made.. You can buy bags of chips for only $2! I think with shrinkflation these days an equivalent bag of Doritos or Lays or something would cost you like $4-5, so it’s good to shop local. I would note that the desk counter is heavily plexiglassed and the ‘clear box’ is for passing the purchased goods through from the cashier side to the customer, showing how rough Detroit is if a damn snack shop needs to fully seal off their store. Haven’t tried the chips yet so we’ll find out later! I picked our sour cream and onion, sweet bbq, and sweet maui onion.

how the hell do you come up with this shit

On the way in to Detroit we saw a billboard for Koegel’s and was wondering what it was. They make lunch meats! If I had to pick one to make a sandwich with, I’d pick Macaroni & Cheese Loaf. Olive Loaf will come in second.

cheese, pepperoni, mushrooms // hawaiian (cheese, ham, pineapple)

Our first Detroit pizza of the day is from Loui’s! It’s a more traditional take on Detroit Pizza. My frame of comparison is Slice House‘s Detroit style pizza, which I love for having a fluffy and pillowy pizza dough. I think the thing I like most about this pizza is that the cheese just keeps flowing out. Like, I’ll take a bite out of it and the cheese will ooze down out into the space created from me chewing off a piece from it.

For today’s activity, we visited the Henry Ford Museum of Innovation. It houses artifacts relating to American History, aviation, and cars. I don’t really know anything about aviation and cars, but as an American, I really like American History!

people had to draw the lines for your ruled paper! crazy!

hey bro

yeah, except my mahjong placement rate. jack that shit all the way up on the left side

weiners

the only dymaxion house. a really cool ‘tech bro’ concept but not at all practical

old school cute little girl

don’t let them tell you what the resolution is on those

shoulda handed translated copies of those out at hiroshima and nagasaki

yes, smoking is bad for you. choose a better vice instead, like cute anime girls

maybe one day my room will be in a museum too!

damn… i can’t use this either… tfw not white

lincoln’s chair when he got killed. I guess that’s his blood. but why isn’t this at the ford’s theater instead? they have a lincoln exhibit of their own. now I’m imaging fights between these museum societies arguing over who gets what artifact when something significant happens

please re-enact this. god bless america

real used bed by george washington!!!

old diner used as a present day diner. the old prices are cheaper on a nominal basis, but those price swings between each item are actually way bigger!

wait.. i’ve seen these before…

one of 6 bugatti royales in the world. but it’s just a car.

jfk’s car. pour one out for JFortKennedy

a replica of the first plane. thank you mr wright for now i can buy cunny goods because of your hard work

patron created cat quilt thing. i like it and honestly it is more artful than a lot of ‘modern art’

Second Detroit PIzza from Michigan and Trumbell. I seem to have not taken a picture of the second pizza we got. what the fuck. This one focuses on having a more ‘dense’ dough, rather than the fluffy and soft dough I’m looking for in a Detroit pizza, so not a big fan of it. It’s fine as a ‘normal’ pizza.

welcome to Canada

Technically there are Timmy Horton’s in the U.S. now. But it just seems wrong to go to one in the U.S. For me, it will always only be a Canada-only exclusive. It’s basically a dunkin donuts serving primarily pastries and coffee. But it looks like they also some some normal foods per the menu.

onroute, a portmanteau of ontario and enroute. probably.

These seem to be state sponsored rest stops along Ontario highways. They’re nice. My only complaint is…

99 cent bros…

You can’t sell cans of Arizona for that much! Even if you take it at USD, that’s $2.50 USD!!! It’s not allowed!!!

ok i goofed off a lot and i need to go to sleep bye
