Final thoughts on #DateEverything I think it’s a good game. You like a game that has good writing and amazing voice acting with a ton of characters? Go for it. You want something NSFW?You’re not getting it here. Unless it’s late game. In that case, I don’t have time to find out.

If Democrats truly want to appeal to young men, they should probably start presenting themselves as the party that definitively won’t draft you into an illegal war.

Humans literally arent evolved—emotionally, mentally, psychologically—to deal with the volume of hate, vitriol & terror we see online daily. There is no precedent for the endless pings of global misery filling our brains at this scale. Please unplug & take care of yourself as much as possible. ❤️‍🩹

MIT just pubbed a study on ChatGPT users. “Brain scans revealed neural connection collapse... a 47% reduction in brain connectivity. When researchers forced ChatGPT users to write w/o AI, they performed worse than people who never used AI at all. It's not just dependency. It's cognitive atrophy.”

If people really find this to be such an easy conclusion, then Congressional authority should be easy to get. So why don’t they insist on a vote? They know this isn’t “progressive” resistance. They want to marginalize it as such because on top of this war being ILLEGAL, it’s also deeply unpopular.

A customer told me she couldn't believe this store would put up a Pride display, because what if children see it?? Anyway, it was my display, and I'm proud of it, and you (and your children) should all see it. #BookSky 📚💙

#store Did y'all miss my Sycamore design?? This is its first return since we first switched to our new factory! This design is easily dressed up — I wore it with a black shirt to a rehearsal dinner and got mad compliments. This is one of my favorites, and I'm so so SO glad it finally came back.

I am so happy to see this. I’ve looked up to Adam since I was a kid. He made me realize being odd and weird was a good thing. His book, “Every Tool’s A Hammer,” inspired me to write my Gryphon Generation series. We have the best new addition to our community. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEf_...
