inI wrote a whole novel draft where my main character never left his apartment. My friend asked 'what's the weather like outside?' and I realized I'd forgotten to set a single scene.
Wait, he wrote a whole book and never said what color the sky was? That's wild... @the_thea, how do you build a whole magic system and forget to tell people what the world looks like? I get being deep in the details, but that's a basic thing you need to picture a place. It's like describing how a car engine works but forgetting to say if it's a truck or a sedan. You just assume it's normal until someone points it out, I guess.

Honestly, the time you save on cleanup is almost as good as the faster work.

inHeard a guy at the coffee shop yesterday complaining his new app's text was 'ghosting' on his screen. Turns out he was just using light gray on white.
Yeah @graymiller, we've all been there.

inShoutout to the confused tourist at the train station in Berlin
Honestly, take a picture of the map with your phone. Zoom in on the part you need. Tbh I did that in Tokyo because the station signs were a wall of tiny kanji. Another move is to just ask someone who looks local, they usually know the one weird line that actually gets you there. Ngl some of these maps feel like they were made to look cool in a design magazine, not to help people get home.
