I sense a backstory here… but I wonder.

I notice that the two cars both have same-sex couples in them… beset by horrific monsters, and looking terrified.

In the background are two empty closets… did the riders just come out of the closet?

Is this a warning to them? A representation of their fears about coming out?

Hmmm….

Anyhow, I searched, but didn’t find this particular work…

It seems to be by Michael (Pooch) Pucciarelli .. a Florida pop surrealist painter, and also a well known tattoo artist (at least, amongst those familiar with tattooing, which I’m not).

He paints a lot of similar carnival and Disney style rides.. but I didn’t see another with this theme.

I have to confess, though… there were about 1.7 zillion to look through and I didn’t want to devote hours to it.

Sometimes it’s just more fun with a buddy than an SO…

Sure… but look at the fronts of the carts.

Around here, those overlapped gender symbols would signify a relationship, not just a seating arrangement.

You see them used that way on jewelry and T-shirts.

Most straight guys I know, understanding as they may be, might draw the line at having their picture taken in that car with a “buddy.”

I had not noticed that because I was in a hurry…
That ride must be a relaxing change to the horrors of everyday life
in still too many places.

You could easily replace the ay couple symbolism with a Star of David, or an darker skin or mixed shade couple.
Unfortunately.
I give it a thumbs up.

I could not find any artist credit, but as near as I can tell, this is fan-art from the television show “Supernatural”.
That’s the character, Castiel with the hole in his chest.
The show was never a favourite of mine, I haven’t seen an episode in years, but it ran for 15 seasons so a good number of people liked it more than I did.

I couldn’t have this hanging on my wall, if it were animated like this — say, in a digital frame.

Not going to explain why, but you may know.

they say that driving over wet autumn leaves is akin to driving on ice!

Hey Cleo, as long as you can get back to sleep, don’t worry about that wet cat.

Carly needs to work on her posture before it’s too late.

Pickled Pete put this up on “The Comic Strip…” yesterday.
The music (you’ll have to un-mute it) is well chosen for a very happy puppy.
 

Come on, shake your body, do the conga

I don’t blame you, Cleo. Any cat willing to go out in the rain to stalk you is NOT a nice kitty.

Yeah, we can see by Cleo’s expressions just how worried she is.

Why should she be?

She’s safe and snug, lying on her bed, inside the warm house, with the doors and windows no doubt locked.

While the EWC makes a fool of himself, trying to look ferocious, with the cold, driving rain soaking his fur.

Yup. Very scary. Uh huh… yaaaawn.

Before today, I had never heard of this type emergency safety system.
 

 
This happened on Friday, July 15th of this year.
Here is a summary in translation from     AIB – BELGIUM     about the accident.
 
The aircraft is a Dyn’Aéro MCR01 with a gross weight of only 992 pounds.
