My version of this was messier, but the conclusion was similar. This is more useful on a tired rainy evening than on a perfect day.

This is adorable and oddly motivating. This is more useful on a tired Monday morning than on a perfect day.

Anecdotally, this tracks with what I have seen. The Buenos Aires example makes it feel concrete.

I do not have a strong take, but the rant detail is useful. The social part surprised me too.
