P-Mo x Perspective | snippet/teaser 3 | #blamesociety | #LLP
FULL VIDEO DROPS AT NOON!! TAP IN ON THE #YOUTUBE channel(link)▶️
When editing/creating these visuals, I end up playing the track over and over. In doing so, I get very acquainted with the song. Paris' rhyme scheme on "Perspective" is damn near immaculate. His descriptions of life are dark, but he always attempted to find and show light. 💙🕊👑

has there been a poll about st louis style pizza.. i'm from missouri and like. i love stl style pizza but also i think it is objectively bad compared to most pizza. but i love it so much
i think we did chicago, i don't remember if we did st louis, i've got the submission for it though
HOT TAKE TOURNAMENT
POST PRE PRELIMINARY #161
Tumblr media
Submission 153
Saint Louis pizza is good, actually
I grew up in New England and was raised as a New York style pizza supremacist, but then I moved to STL and honestly the pizza slaps. Yes it may be square and crackery and have plasticy cheese, but that’s a surprisingly good combination of things. Also if anyone reading this likes Imo’s fries as much as I do PLEASE reach out, they literally changed my life.
Pre-preliminaries will be used to determine what qualifies as a hot take. Propaganda is encouraged!
Also, remember to reblog your favourite polls for exposure!

But I thought taylor and karlie maybe were in st louis for christmas, so that is why she stunted there… but if she is going back to nyc, I don’t know // Karlie was in STL but Taylor was in Nashville.
Of course you do not know this. Don't tell me about jets either. Her jets home base is Nashville. We have no idea what flights she is on and I am sure she has clandestine ways of getting around. She knows her jets are tracked.

Summer booked
Summer travel + camp are fully booked through August 26th. Only one week is not totally decided. I applied for a free NYC camp on the Intrepid - the large ship/museum that holds a ton of fighter planes. It's a lottery and they won't tell us if the girls get a spot until the end of May. We have back up options. We are lucky enough to be traveling five out of the eight weeks. Two weeks in Costa Rica with the extended family, ten days in STL visiting my parents and two weeks in Guatemala. Guatemala is only the girls and I. Maybe my Mom will join. I signed them up for a Spanish immersion camp in the morning while there. It should be a great summer. My dream summer actually.
Finishing up the schedule feels like a real accomplishment.

Circa '53, Nickel Plate 2-8-4 number 706 drags a fast freight at Frankfort in Indiana. This locomotive was built by the American Locomotive Company in 1934 at the first order of the road's super-power locomotives for the NKP.

DL 190 - ALCO PA-1 at Kansas City, KS por Zach Pumphery Por Flickr: On its way to new owner Genesee Valley Transportation Company is the famous ALCO PA-1 restored by preservationist Doyle McCormack over the past 2 decades in Portland, Oregon. The locomotive began moving east in late April from the PNW on BNSF Railway, arriving at Kansas City early this morning on BNSF Train H PASKCK9 25A, appropriately behind a warbonnet painted Dash-9. In this view, the locomotive is at the "Tall Tower" at BNSF Argentine Yard. The unit is on home rails at this former Santa Fe facility. This engine was built for the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway by the American Locomotive Company in 12-1948 as ATSF 62-L, builder number 76541 wearing the famous red and silver Warbonnet paint scheme leading famous trains such as the "El Capitan" between Chicago and California. On 4-5-67, the Santa Fe retired the unit and sold it to Morrison–Knudsen in Boise, ID. 4 Ex-ATSF units including this one were rebuilt by MK with the "PA-4" classification, for the Delaware and Hudson on 8-11-75, with this one becoming D&H 18. Under D&H ownership, they were used by Amtrak for the "Adirondack", and later by the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority hauling commuter trains around Boston. The last PA's to operate in the United States, they were sold in 1978 to the NdeM, where this one ran as DH-18 until 1981. All 4 of those PA's remain, 2 at the National Museum of Mexican Railways, and 2 in the US. In 2000, McCormack of American Freedom Train and SP 4449 fame worked with the Smithsonian Institution to bring two of these engines back to the United States. What was left of the 16 and 18 came home on flat cars to Oregon. Doyle bought a set of trucks in Canada to replace the ones that were missing when it arrived from Mexico, and the hulk of a BC Rail M420B for its 251 prime mover, electrical cabinet, and traction motors. 16 later wound up at the Museum of the American Railroad in Texas where it is steadily being restored to its Santa Fe appearance. McCormack's father worked for the NYC&STL, better known as the Nickel Plate Road, and his first cab ride when he was 12 was aboard the real NKP 190. Doyle later worked for the N&W in Ohio and an operator, eventually becoming a fireman before moving to the Pacific Northwest in the 1970's. He hired out on the SP, worked freight an passenger service for Amtrak, and has retired from the UP, all the while being heavily involved with the 4449 organization. When he restored the PA it was only natural for him to restore it to an NKP appearance, which took the better part of 2 decades to complete. The engine traveled to Spencer, NC in 2014 for the "Streamliners at Spencer" event featuring a plethora of locomotives from that era. Now in his 80's, it was announced in March 2023 that he had sold the engine to GVT after years of talks. The engine will be put into excursion service by GVT and will pull excursions in Northeastern Pennsylvanian, including former D&H track the engine ran in revenue service. Assigned "DL 190" for movement to GVT's Delaware-Lackawanna Railroad in Pennsylvania, it retains its Nickel Plate Road paint scheme. The real 190 was built in March 1948 and carried builder number 75457. For what was regarded as one of the most beautiful locomotive designs ever built, not many of these were preserved, and half of those units suffered what had been a grim fate for decades. It's nice to have a few left to enjoy. Locomotive: DL 190 5-3-23 Kansas City, KS

People are really trying to re-write the history of Evan and Fran on this blog. I don't understand it. If there was a trip to STL, and a hook-up in NYC, that does not really say that Evan and Fran spent 3 weeks together/ travelling etc that fall. That is a big leap to make with no real evidence.- also this TWEAM investigator says note the difference in the AIRBNB ratings of guest stays. The NYC one rates "Evan" and the Joshua Tree rates 'guests" so that tells me Evan rented the loft alone (and maybe had a guest one night) but rented the Joshua Tree for two.
hello! i did not realize this was serious to anyone and i have already said previously how i really never followed fran and evan - i found her very irritating and following her like a hawk was the only way to find out the majority of this stuff, which i was not ever willing to do because i did not believe they were a serious couple and i still don't to a large degree lol i appreciate your follow-up and i genuinely don't know if anyone is trying to spread misinformation, everyone is anon in this conversation so i can't really say who is who and who these asks are coming from, i'm sure a lot of people just don't really remember or care that deeply about fran/evan because they're broken up now.

I think it's lovely Karlie goes back to STL for Halloween. I know she drags the beard with her, but it's sweet. Probably a much safer/peaceful place space to walk around than NYC. No paps.
Happy 2nds Halloween Levi!
How many costume changes this year I wonder.

I can think of nowhere else to go with a heart so full of love and grief. My friend died in his sleep this week. He was 64. I’ve known him 45 years. We met in our dorm - immediately drawn to each other, but like a brother and sister. Never more. It was fun and confusing and hilarious. We kept on like that all these years. Sometimes not seeing each other for long periods of time, but social media brought us together for good. We could keep track. He in NYC, and me in STL. I became friends with his mom here through him. She passed this year right before her 103rd birthday. He came to tell her goodbye when her death was imminent. He stayed with me and spent an entire day worrying over her obituary. She had asked him to write it. It was beautiful. He was a good writer. And a good song writer. And a good musician. And an excellent linguist. But his life was not very pretty or “successful”. He was an alcoholic and kept his ex-wife and children at arm’s length. For his mother’s funeral, he provided the obituary that was read, but refused to attend. His four brothers all tried to change his mind. But he would not be swayed. When I was driving him to the airport, I was thinking that this was probably the last time I would see him. As he was getting out of my car, he said as much. It was a very shaky goodbye. That was February. Now he is gone and his brothers have ignored his passing. Tit for tat, I suppose. There is no one to grieve aside from our college friends with wonderful memories and his teenage children and his ex-girlfriends. My conundrum is this: there is no one to blame for anything, but there is also no closure. When NYC determines how he died (required autopsy) his children will grieve alone. No uncles to lean on or to receive comforting words from. Life alone and addicted is truly a sad end. Equally to those left behind.
