A visual cleanse 🫧
Your Monday morning visual detox.
Hi everyone, it’s Monday. And you look great today.
Welcome to Afirmativo!, where I send updates about articles that I publish on my blog and share things that have been on my mind lately.
Do we have different online and offline moods? I woke up today thinking that lately, I have been quiet on the internet and oversharing in person. I found it funny since it’s often the opposite. I guess? Or maybe not.
Anyway: if you’ve been reading the news these days, your sight might be tired, your eyes dirty, so here are three visual cleansers.
Gargoyles, just gargoyles
Dolores Herrero is an Art History PhD who documents and shares gargoyles.

You can follow her on Bluesky, Instagram, or TikTok.
Clean signs
Liam “the sign guy” makes satisfying ASMR videos cleaning the UK’s dirtiest road signs.

Dish rockets
Neus Masdeu builds fun structures out of her drying dishes.
She doesn’t have a dedicated instagram account for this, but you can dig into the archives or check out some of her other ocurrències. I love them all.
That’s all for today.
Have a nice week!
Alberto
