Captain Awkward has a really interesting post with, critically, additional discussion in the comments, about different communication styles: Ask (failure mode: Tell) and Offer (failure mode: Guess)—which, as an even later comment points out, is another way of talking about high-context v. low-context cultures. I found it really thought-provoking and useful.

And now, back to the never-ending war against entropy in the particular form of the kids' stuff.
