@downtownakron why are all the gates down at summit county parking deck? All self service. It’s going to take people three hours to get out of here. Bad, bad look for the city. :(

Salons did not replace things that had disappeared but invented some of the attributes and functions of things yet to be born. In that sense, they were less transitional institutions than expressions of an era of transitions.” ~Steven Kale 2/2

[Salon Akron @SalonAkron]

“...salons always filled some sort of institutional vacuum at the intersection of public and private life left by the decline of certain cultural, social, or civic institutions and the rise of others that had not yet taken root. 1/2
