I just love it when #humanity shows up like this.
I just saw a Reddit post by someone with extreme anxiety asking how to order a sandwich at Subway because they've never tried it and someone replied and wrote out step-by-step instructions without being snarky or judgmental and it's the kindest, sweetest thing I've seen in months

Hey @FrankandOak I made my first #facemask from your tutorial! (bit.ly/3eS3Ruy). Steps 3 and 5 were a little confusing but I eventually figured them out. Instead of a twist-tie, I used a paper clip that I bent into shape. #stayathome #newhobbies
