Halfway through locktober now 👏 don’t worry, it’s not too late to start. Just put on the cage and you can make up the time during November. You can choose your cage, but I’ll be keeping the keys 😈

I’ve made it to the final day of my stay at Pike Place Market. Swing by today for your last chance to see my stuff in person (and not pay shipping). I’m in the Economy Arcade by DeLaurenti’s at 1st and Pike.

I’ll be here till at least 2p today, depending on nearby construction. Hope to see you!

Gather round, children, and hear my true tales of memorized phone numbers.

bleary @bleary.off-the-records.com · 2d

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?
