5 years of oslo.town -- a short blog post, but not short enough to be a mere toot.

Click the link, read the words, and share the emotion! It's a celebration!

I'm genuinely happy that we have this amazing little community going on here! It's so inspiring to see it going strong after all this time.

Today, on #InternationalCatDay, I have spent a lot of time communicating with the vet and picking out an urn because @harold is sadly so sick that tomorrow he will miaow his last miaow and be put to sleep. ⚰️

Which means that he'll be leaving our loving household and his loving sister @madge. 😿

Happy International Cat Day, you lovable fur-balls. I'm sorry it'll be your last, Harold. πŸ’”

Just saw someone explaining how joining #Mastodon is like entering #Hogwarts and that, despite the Sorting Hat putting you in #Gryffindor and your friend in #Hufflepuff, you can still follow and talk to each other because you're still in the same #wizarding school.

A simple explanation of different instances for the #HarryPotter fans! :face_laughing_with_sweat_drop_fb:

Excuse me, but what's the opposite of this club? I'm not sure this one is for me.

@matt As a fair solution, both should be forced a 6 year time out to think about of what they've done.

Makes me sick that second hand stores in Oslo often charge more for their β€œvintage” clothes than buying new.

Why are you selling a sweater from the 80s for 699kr when I can buy a brand new one for less?? The original sweater probably only cost 300kr.

Second hand is meant to be good for the environment AND good for your pocket. Vintage boutiques aren’t helping.

@matt It gives us a look inside the business:

The majority of the price of your sweater goes to the shop (from which they pay rent, wages, energy etc). This is typically a 2.7x markup.

kr440 of that 700 goes to the shop. kr260 to the wholesaler. All the way up to the manufacturer or cleaner.

Ergo: very little of that price is manufacturing. Sometimes under 50kr. Just cleaning 2nd hand inside norway might even be more.

This world is sick.

@matt Probably there's more demand for that vintage sweater?

Maybe if Kevin Spacey grew a moustache nobody would recognise him and he would get work again.

Slide masters in #Powerpoint are weird. They don't make any sense to me in how they work.

@matt They look really confused when I tell them I don’t have PowerPoint installed πŸ˜‚

Why am I excited for this year’s #NFL season?! The preseason went kinda good for the #Dolphins and Skylar Thompson is my new fave QB.

I just asked Siri what the weather forecast is, and it literally told me right now it’s 21Β° and sunny but I should expect cloud and rain in the very near future. β€œMixed conditions”.

So basically all the weather.

all I wanted to know is whether I should be wearing a jacket or not?!
