with the 1500 poll, i put other because my brain instinctively said "mil quinientos", which is how you'd say it in spanish! i think it's funny that this happens because i'm chilean but i lived in the US when i was really really small so i've been bilingual my whole life, and still, for some reason, my brain always reads numbers in spanish. it's the one thing i can't turn off. i just find bilingualism (or more languages!) interesting in general, like how your brain works in two languages simultaneously.

1500? Depends on context. If I'm emphasizing price...its ONE THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED!!!!

Instinctively I said fifteen hundred; but my second option would have been one-five-OH-OH (not zero zero)

pleasing took on the feedback about larger sizes - now i just wish they shipped directly to nz!! also super surreal about the fire in wellington i used to work 2 buildings away from the hostel - it always had people coming and going so scary to think what might have caused it!

omg YES to the merch thing!! I would love to buy more merch for the artists I love but most of it is in 'unisex' sizing (it's just mens sizing right like how is it unisex?) so I usually have to go for whatever the biggest size is usually like an XL which is super tight because boobs! I miss out on a lot of merch because it's just sold online and I don't trust sizing guides and it's really hard to tell if it's going to be a good fit or if I'm wasting like $100

Dunno why my first thought on 1500 was three o’clock 😂 maybe cause it’s what I see on the microwave clock when it’s time to finish work

Hi there! I signed up as a supporter a while ago, but can’t figure out how to access the close friends content on insta. Any advice on what I’m going wrong? 🤨
