A lot of facilities will just close. The remainder will be prohibitively expensive. ✨America✨

Reply to comment by releasethekaren in TIL Queen Sophie of the Netherlands’ marriage with King William was so turbulent that when she died, she was buried in her wedding dress because she viewed her life ended on the day she got married. by AsianInvasian93
Probably shouldn't aspire to be someone with a shitty life full of abuse. I don't think her actions were dramatic, it's sad.

Reply to comment by PoopIsAlwaysSunny in TIL while writing "A Christmas Carol," Charles Dickens was "taking night-time walks of 15 to 20 miles (24 to 32 km) around London." to build out the story in his head. by SuperMcG
I mean sort of. People would walk a couple of miles without any problems. But by Victorian times, walking an entire day would be considered below most middle class people, who would have horses and carriages at their disposal.
There's a couple parts in Price and Prejudice where people make fun of Lizzie for going on super long walks.
