Markus Latvala @markuslatvala.bsky.social · 16/09/2026You know, it's a bit of a red flag if your boss warns other people that they might feel like slaves at your studio. Jokes aside, I think voluntary crunch is fine if you have a share of the cake. In most cases the owners are the only ones profiting from the extra hours so it's just not worth it. 1/2 100
Markus Latvala @markuslatvala.bsky.social · 16/09/2026If you measure height in feet, does it mean that people used to lie down at the doctor's appointment? Or did they have a separate unit for vertical measurements, like the elbow or something? 🤔 000

Markus Latvala @markuslatvala.bsky.social · 14/09/2026On our way back home from a tournament we stumbled upon on this rustic marvel - the Petäjävesi Old Church. This UNESCO World Heritage site was built in 1765 by the local farmers, and since they received no help from the crown, even the interior is entirely made of wood. Very cool. 010
