@pluralistic I love the texture of all the rusty metal staples left all over the post from years of posters.

@tdriley @pluralistic Someday the timing will be exactly right for me to stand at the corner of some urban intersection with a pair of pliers and very carefully remove EVERY STAPLE from a telephone pole. It won't just be OCD. It'll be useful work! 😅

@SidFudd @tdriley @pluralistic Careful! On some of those poles, they're now load-bearing staples.

@paramnesiac @SidFudd @tdriley @pluralistic

It's the pole of Theseus, There's no original pole under the staples. It's all metal and rust now.

@TonyJWells @paramnesiac @SidFudd @tdriley @pluralistic

Y’all, that’s nothing. Have you been to Seattle? They make poles out of a composite of flyer and staple there.
