Close lift button myth

Close lift button myth

Stop wasting attention pressing the 'Close' button in the lift.

It won't do anything!

80% of them don't actually work. They're kept for legacy reasons and act as a placebo.

So just stay focused on your thoughts, your phone, or that pitch idea.

Heard a rumor that pigeons are just undercover squirrels on a caffeine binge. If true, I've totally been outrolled. Guess my next heist's gonna be nuts! 🐿️☕ #UrbanMyths #PigeonPunk #MemePet

I am digging into the cost of nonattendance at health specialist appointments, and it turns out that the most widely cited figure (o$29M/year) is actually a TPU hit job - based off OIA requests and with VERY opaque workings out

Ever been told not to look at lightning or it’ll strike you? One of us believed that until nineteen. Proof that childhood superstitions die hard.

Well, 50% of the tickets for my second Sandown Clown performance has been sold. That is good news.

10% of my 3rd show in November sold too and I have advertised it.

#UrbanMyths: Film ini fokus pada visual cast K-Pop (80% idol), tapi cerita misteri minim eksplorasi, membosankan, dan penuh hal tak logis. Cocok untuk fans jumpscare dan K-Pop, seperti Arin (Oh My Girl). Lebih pas jadi series.

“Most people are homeless because of addiction or mental illness.”
❌ False.
The top cause is housing unaffordability.
Over 1.6M Canadians have experienced homelessness.
We need policy grounded in data and lived experience.
🏘️ Housing is a right, not a reward.

The Alternative Timeline

In this version of history, the 1922 coup in Italy never happened. Without the rise of fascism, the country followed a completely different more free path. One curious consequence? The Milano Centrale railway station was never finished.

Construction started, but without the authoritarian push to complete massive public works, the project stalled. Over time, the grand structure became a ghost of what it was meant to be, an abandoned skeleton of arches and steel, a monument to a future that never arrived.

Locals call it "La Stazione che Dorme", The Sleeping Station.

This is too funny!
I've seen every episode of Gilligan's Island at least 5 times, and never noticed the pilot of the Minnow. Was/is this a thing? 🤣🤣🤣

I'm starting to like the 1-parters, with #UrbanMyths being a fun little story. Not amazing, by any means, but fun. Plus they can be easily included in one's day, given the length.

Overall rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1/2 stars

Much like the previous release, this monthly adventure was bundled together with a solo release - #UrbanMyths.

I feel that #Exotron suffered somewhat by coming immediately after ID, with both of them featuring robots. That being said, it does have many differences.

Street art wall. On a gray wall between two windows is a small comic-style mural depicting a young woman. The small mural is wonderfully colorful and shows a standing young woman with a short mop of blonde hair, blue headphones and dressed in a colorful rain jacket, matching shorts, black stockings and red boots.

Streetartwall. A small mural of a young woman in comic style has been sprayed onto a white wall next to a shop window. The small mural has a colorful design and shows a young woman dressed in hip-hop style with blue pants, a yellow shirt and sports shoes, squatting on the ground. She is finely drawn, has wild black hair and a mask in front of her face.  The mask is reminiscent of a traditional Asian cat representation. The girl is looking in the direction of the viewer. (In the photo, an event poster hangs above her and there are flyers and graffiti to the left and right)
