TIL in the 60s the dutch govt hired a harvard+mit guy to "modernise" amsterdam

his plans included demolishing multiple neighbourhoods (incl where i live now) to make highways and to fill the canals to make parking lots!!

the people haaaated it, there were protests and the plans were thrown away

when i visited the US (texas), i saw so many guys wearing a cap indoors, what’s up with that??

i know little about US fashion, is it a south thing? is it a recent thing?

it’s a myth that men don’t care about fashion, show a man a random blue striped shirt and they’ll say

oh yeah that’s the barca away kit from 2007-08 campaign, messi still wore number 19 in it
