Midsummer, Pride & ads to make you smile
10 links · 2 min. lezen
10 Things is een zeldzame mix van de tien beste dingen online die ons inspireerden, opvielen of aan het lachen maakten. Al meer dan tien jaar met de hand samengesteld, 366 edities verder en zonder opvulling.
Although the official Midsummer was last week, we had our own celebrations after work yesterday evening. The Swedish–Your Majesty tradition involves crafting flower crowns, dinner and drinks, and singing traditional songs such as Hyfvisa and Nu tar vi den (out of tune).
This week’s issue is packed with notable adverts including an AI video for Toys”R”us, the winners of Cannes Lions and the Oslo tourism advert which will certainly bring a smile to your face with its dry humour.
Plus, make sure you’re up to speed on your Pride history as today marks the anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising.
Until next week, ⚔️ Your Majesty
