      You’re not smurfing there. You could smurf a smurf right in the smurf and nobody would give it a second thought.

    Needs more cigarettes; In hands, on the ground, in the kids hair. They were everywhere.

      In hands on the ground in the kids hair.

      I feel like there’s a typo here, but 7 people have upvoted you so far so maybe I’m missing something.

      Edit: Ohh, you meant that the cigarettes should be “in hands, on the ground, in the kid’s hair.” (Which is true.)

      They used to have cigarette vending machines. An underage person could buy cigarettes from a machine, because it had no way to check your age.

        Didn’t even need to use the machines, because most people didn’t care. When I wanted to walk to the store in my teens, my mother would give me extra money to pick up cigarettes for her. Cashiers always sold them to me, no problem.

        We sure this isn’t an AI image that someone edited after the fact? Cars parked erratically, girls look like dolls and their hands are weird, the hi res smoke plume, and what is going on with the guy in the back right.

          Reports on shudder Reddit claimed the bikini clad women are AI. I find this entirely plausible:

          1. Compared to the little girl they frankly just look AI.
          2. I grew up in the 80’s; Women’s swimsuits of the day were usually one-piece, with high cut thigh openings. Bikinis like this were not a thing I recall ever seeing back then.
          • Here is an example that appears accurate to me. There were bikinis of the day if course, but the picture clearly shows how differently they were cut:

      The aircraft definitely appears so.

      The plume doesn’t seem as much, as I remember smelter stacks were much more commonplace.

      Residential and commercial development right next to largescale industrial operations is very 20th century American.
