I heard about it from this billboard while running through Lynn last fall!

what they're for is to give HR executives something to ramble on about and make everyone do so they feel useful

I finally remembered! it was making fun of prince william so I made the label to stick in the park he visited here because they implied the street would be entirely shut down and I'd be banned from leaving my apartment

also surely a better question would be "if I don't have time to learn any of the language how big a problem will that be?" or "what's the bare minimum I need to learn to get by if I'm there for this long?" Or something

same now that you mention it... like it doesn't happen when I see a mural outside or a painted utility box. I guess the murals in my neighborhood pretty much all have an obvious point (climate change/sea level rise mostly) so maybe that helps

with art specifically it drives me crazy when someone's response is just "oh you can interpret it however you want" because it entirely ignores my concern, it's the same as saying "yeah you're right you ARE doing it wrong, figure it out for yourself"

I enjoy art (and other stuff that otherwise bores me) when people are like Louisa in this book about it, passionately explaining a thing they understand without being pretentious about it.

I guess now that you mention it, I've only ever had a fan in places where it never got stuffy in cold weather because the heating didn't work super well.

Oh wow this is amazing hah. I just couldn't understand why it would exist as a feature, who'd turn on a fan when it's cold! I feel like I've tried this switch before but didn't realize what the difference once- it was def correct at least

omg so that IS a real thing??? I saw a post a couple months ago and was so confused because I've never noticed a switch on my fan, seeing a real person I trust mention it is so reassuring

There's a toilet cleaner I keep getting ads for that supposedly lasts forever but there's only a discount if you buy more than one. why would I buy two of something I don't even know works with my toilet even if I DID have more than one??

yoga is THE WORST, I don't understand how even simple poses can feel so bad. I've run marathons! up steep hills! viewed cybertrucks! none of that hurts as much as ten minutes of yoga

Imagine being an American just waking up now, and THIS is how you discover Europe still receives shipments of containers?
So many we're just leaving then in people's gardens, apparently.
