  1. I see that Prague city council has banned organised pub crawls because they want to attract ‘more cultured,wealthier’ tourists.

    Have you ever been on an ‘organised pub crawl ‘?

    I did one in Dublin once,it was a literary pub crawl.We went around all the famous pubs from Irish literature,drank in each one, and the guide did a literary quiz on the way.I won it actually!

  2. Yesterday’s prompt was “roam”, so here’s a drawing of [Rome.](https://www.deviantart.com/tereyaglikedi/art/Inktober-2024-Day-14-Roam-1110211673) Roam-Rome, got it? It’s funny, right? No? Roaming in Rome? Still not? Anyway. I think it’s funny.

    There’s a Turkish Nobel Prize winner! Daron Acemoglu won the prize in Economics. That’s great. I haven’t read any of his books, but I know more or less what he’s working on.

    It’s very cold outside. Very, very, very cold. But it’s supposed to warm up the next days.

  3. I’m reading something about the concept of ‘pluralistic ignorance ‘.

    This is when people believe that everyone around them is doing something, even though it’s not actually true, and they become jealous or even depressed for this reason.

    Like, everyone at work appears happy with their job.You are not, and they are not either, they are just good at hiding it! But this feeling that they all like it more than you makes you resentful.

  4. Ughh my ear ringing came back and my microwave handle had one point of attachment broken. So much crap breaking this weak. I guess I’ll go work on some of them now work is over for a bit. So stressful.

  5. I saw that worst climate topic. My company’s headquarters is further north in Ohio, and I hope I wouldn’t have to go up there for employment after this job is up. I’m not a big fan of continental climates, and last winter was enough to convince me that going further north is a bad idea.
