I wish wordle would stop making fun of the way my clues look and just tell me what the solution was

The yellow mushrooms were. TINY! I wish I had put something down for scale. The leaves in the background kind of skew the perception here but these little dudes were SO small. I’d estimate 1cm height,

This alpine meadow is one of the most beautiful places I’ve been. Here is where I shall build my little earthen goblin hut to live out my days making Potion and giving travellers mysterious advice.

Literally just said this to my partner. It’s especially effective if I have the time to wander, and to linger, and to discover something new along the way

crazy how every time you go on a walk it’s like ohh that’s why i’m alive

Can anyone help me ID this really cute bee I saw?

Me, completely alone, actively trying not to faint, slumping into the wall, fuzzy tunnel vision as my heart goes crazy:

ah but . what if … I’m Faking It for Attention?

As a non driver in a car-centric western Canadian city, I remember finding myself very flummoxed when it stopped being socially normal to have a backpack in which to carry my water, sketchbook, other books, first aid, tampons, and all the rest. It was impractical for me not to carry a bag, so I just kept wearing a backpack. Have definitely had a few weird reactions.

God I love cultural differences. An American made a video about the things American tourists do abroad and one of them was carry around water bottles. He asked “What’s wrong with that? Better then to be constantly dehydrated like Europeans”

Even though he said it in a friendly joking manner it kicked off a very confused conversation in the comments.

I remember listening to a podcast that explained how Americans drink way more water than Europeans because the government worked out it’s the easiest way for Americans to do something healthy for themselves while Europeans were never told to consume large amounts of water just “drink when you’re thirsty” because more focus was put on the quality of our food. It’s a pretty cute way to tell if someone is American. They’ll tell you to stay hydrated.

And just to be clear, Europeans stay hydrated. It’s just not a cultural focus like it is for Americans.

But the video also exposed a difference in bag-use for American and European tourists.

Americans responded that carrying a backpack around just for your water sounds annoying and Europeans asked why they were only using it for water? Did they intend to not buy anything on their vacation? And wouldn’t they prefer to have their hands free? Well, the Americans answered that they did have a hand free because their phone fit in their pocket. And besides, men don’t carry bags or wear backpacks, certainly not after leaving the education system. And in some areas it’s considered suspicious to carry a bag in public because what if it had a weapon in it. They also talked about how the American car based society means bags usually aren’t necessary but I think they misunderstood that the conversation was about tourists. I’m sure Europeans generally carry bags or wear backpacks more often in their home countries too tho because yeah we do walk more and have to carry stuff around so we probably bring that mentality when we vacation in other countries.

I love stumbling across these things because I’ve never seen anyone discuss the difference in bag usage.
