i was out the other day & passed by a vast, empty lot covered w snow, next to an (old?) AT&T building

i turned to my man & said 'remember when those lots used to be full of cherry-picker trucks, & the guys would have to come repair phone lines after storms & sht?'

so funny, we got to discussing the timeline of tech, & how phone lines were 'important' for such a short period of time (when viewed against human history), they were practically temporary
