I don't mind that this is a slower place on the internet. Not everything needs to be breakneck content content content. No, scratch that. Nothing should be breakneck content content content but that's what most of the internet has turned into lately.

It's the town square. Sometimes there are parades, sometimes there are protests, sometimes there are unsavory types who wander through. But usually there's just a slightly warm breeze, leaves rustling, people walking their dogs, someone sitting on a bench reading a book, some lovers on a picnic blanket, and a few old friends catching up over a coffee.

Even the town square can't prevent the sky from raining sometimes. Open an umbrella. Or step inside the pubski for a pint.
