What's something that's taken for granted that occasionally makes you think, wait wtf?

Thanks for sharing!

Humans be allowed in, on and across roads in many countries. Jay walking is the most insane non-crime I’ve ever heard of. I still don’t really believe it exists…
So, yeah, car centric cities are both terrible and insane - but not every city in the world is that way; thankfully.

Water. Fresh drinking water straight from the tap.
And yet I'm seeing lots of people in the UK start to buy bottled water. Worse: canned water.
The shittification of public services in favour of private products is a creep I'm not paying enough attention to

The thing about it is aluminum cans leach into their contents, especially if left open. Aluminum isn't particularly harmful in that amount but it's something you can taste, particularly with acidic contents. Not sure how much water suffers from this, but if it comes through in things with flavour, I'm sure it would come through in water, which is supposed to be flavourless, even if it's not usually very acidic.

I agree that metal is better than plastic, but it feels like they're trying to categorise water with soda as a commodity

I was actually trying to do some research on this as well to verify my claim, but couldn’t find a definitive answer. I’m not for sure whether uBlock blocks complete JavaScript libraries from loading by default or if it is only blocks the HTTP request like PiHole.
I did find this interesting project by DuckDuckGo which provides empty implementations of the JavaScript libraries when adblockers break the site. This seems to imply that some adblockers do prevent the JavaScript library from loading at all.

You're right-I didn't want to make it look simple. I'm just constantly stunned how wealth is distributed, which is one of many reasons for homelessness. A fair distribution could finance housing and support systems.

You can't treat any existing mental health issues while people are living on the street developing new ones.

There are other problems for the homeless, but it makes treating those problems a lot easier when they have a home.
