I love how this diner is on a bunch of vaporwave/dystopia blogs for its aesthetic when in real life– I’ve eaten here many times– it’s a cozy daytime luncheon in squeaky clean Old Market, Omaha, and it’s run by a really handsome older bear daddy who wears “PAPA BEAR” pawprint tshirts while he politely brings you a tuna melt, and Omaha being what it is, suburban Nebraska straight moms think his shirt is a reference to being a protective father and tell him “Oh, I’m a ‘mama bear’!” and he always smiles kindly at them like “mmhmm okay!” and I almost choke on my chocolate milk.

A diner somewhere in America. 1958.
