The most messy part of learning stories on a budget
I started this because my commute felt a little stuck, and silly seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.
I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.

I am mostly here for the follow-up. I used to overcomplicate this constantly.

I get the appeal, though I would be careful calling it the best option. I noticed the same thing in Buenos Aires.
