sorry but this seems INSANE but my dad was telling me when he was a kid in Chicago they didn't have trash pickup they just had concrete bins that they burned their trash in and then the garbage people would collect the leftover ashes/stuff that didn't burn. like everybody just threw away their trash inside and then lit it on fire and then left ? idk  do other countries still do this regularly ? i guess everybody just breathed in burnt trash all the time ?

i like coffee, crypto, animals, plants, drones, 3D printing, midjourney, and stickers

oh man that's insaaane, I bet it smelled horrible hahaha

Digital Media Producer. I like particles and waves too. I like art.

lol how are they all not dead  (my dad is in good health for his age)

he mentioned it cuz it was one of his first memories burning his hand on the button metal as a little kid not paying attention (hard mode 🤣)

damn that's crazy... I wonder if they have those things still. Is this a photo you took recently/?

yeah Imagine using it as a massive bong hahahha or a bonfire in the middle of the street hahaa

no the pic was from online but they phased out the incinerators in the 50s cuz they were bad a lot of ways 🤣 plus pollution. there are probably some still around though like this one maybe
