Museum of Nice Things

A robot-looking guide takes robot-looking children on a tour of 'Nice things' at a museum. Nice things include a hot bath, a cat asleep in sunshine and clean sheets. The children are horrified.

Visiting the Museum of Nice Things from our current vantage point is equal parts heartwarming and horrifying. It’s useful to remember that even while everything feels like it’s falling apart, there are still nice things all around we can hold onto.
