2025 Farewell
SS United States
We’ll miss you, you hulking, decaying chunk of ruin porn. You were always there for us as we stared across the IKEA parking lot, thinking “Why the hell is that there?” You were, of course, at one point the fastest ocean liner ever to cross the Atlantic. Then you became a mecca for Philadelphians who wanted to appear gritty in their engagement photos. Now you sit off the coast of Alabama, soon to become a reef. Bon voyage, old friend.
