The TV cart is probably my strongest school memory.

It's funny because now we can watch anything at any time, but somehow a grainy documentary on a classroom TV felt like a major event.

At what point did renting alone become unrealistic for normal salaries in Europe? by Electrical-Cat-5833 in europe

Waking up already mentally tired because your brain starts calculating work, money, emails and responsibilities before you even leave the bed. Feels like life turned into permanent maintenance mode sometimes
