My buddy started balding at 16. He held on for a number of years, but eventually we helped him rip the bandaid off and he shaved himself bald. Instantly looked younger again just because he didn’t have a ring of hair at 27 anymore. Honestly, it can look really cool if you shave it.

I lived too close to a hospital. Apparently, the road I lived next to was the road that all fire, EMS, and police used. Tons of sirens at all hours of the night and day. I toured the place on a quiet day, so it never occurred to me about the noise. That was a bit of a suffer fest.

One funny thing about that place, someone always swore consistently on the street between 17:00-20:00 each evening. It was always someone new, but it was like clockwork. Guests wouldn’t believe it at first, but it became a thing, lol. Sometimes it was someone on a skateboard eating shit in the protected bike lane, other times it was a pissed off pedestrian, someone having an argument, someone having fun, or someone clearly off their medication. No apartment has had that before or since.

Sweater weather. I already didn’t like the downtempo vibe, but it got painfully overplayed back in the day. Unfortunately, I still hear it occasionally. Anything but that, please.

Universities are like little cities. I love all the different styles they have :)

It also shows the strength and resilience of an area. Places like that have weathered many booms and busts. It’s particularly interesting when one building has many styles, having been continuously occupied for hundreds of years. Or in some cases, even longer.

I want a conversation pit!

Transit (Bike/Bus/Rail) and Waze, sometimes Google maps just for more…global maps. (Eg, stuff like finding a campground on a map, or a certain bakery)

Probably about 1-2 weeks, unless jumping in a lake during that time counts. We were in the back country deep in Canada :)

Frutiger Aero was heavily used in Elite Dangerous for a faction’s ships. I love that look! Didn’t realize it had a name.

This is a really good comparison :)

We have some here! Unfortunately, it’s the Soviet style, “cold” brutalist architecture that feels quite hostile. I like the “warm” aesthetic like the DC Metro with the light playing across the waffle ceiling, and the warm, brown hexagonal tile underfoot. This picture appears to be artificially brightened:

I might have to check it out, thanks!

I do love the happy vibes of that, and googie! Both are cheerful aesthetics :)

You can’t go wrong with brick!

Go see a doctor as soon as you can. Also, drink plenty of water.

Battlefield 1, I liked its slower-paced combat and need for teamwork for things like ships and the heavy bomber (original, not the super heavy).

It was different than almost all contemporary shooters, and I really found that refreshing. It also had a strong art design and really looked the part for WW1, even if some of the weapons were prototypes or team weapons (which should have been cut, imo) or vehicles were tweaked for gameplay (understandable, the German tanks were extremely tippy, and the French tanks were slower IRL)

Turkmenistan has some amazing propaganda and surprisingly, interesting music on the propaganda channels. Never would want to go there, though.

The fuzzy hat horse sing-along segment goes surprisingly hard? 16:31, pre-stamped:

Everyone was telling me that this time they would have fixed it. Called it. I think I’m down to one joycon that doesn’t drift :P

Ah, that’s exactly what mine does sometimes.

Since 2020, we started dating two years later. We’re married now :)
