So love wobbegongs. Everything is good about the wobbegong. Its name. Its flattened Oscar the Grouch face. Its frondy bits. Its lazy life as a hungry rug. And it’s a shark. Outstanding animal 10/10
The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

Ann Lowe was the Black genius behind Jackie Kennedy’s iconic wedding gown.
Before the fashion world was ready to credit a Black woman’s talent, Lowe was already designing for America’s most powerful families. Brilliant. Bold. Innovative. Undervalued. And nearly erased from history.

To have your product "Made In The USA" you would think you would be proud to have your workers make a contributable wage. It kinda goes with the label.
But stealing from THOSE YOU REPRESENT is the easiest way to make money. Look at the GOP.

So lemme get this straight. You are eliminating the tariffs on tropical fruits, coffee and beef to lower prices since you took the mantel of the "affordability" President today.
I'm a little confused, though. If tariffs weren't paid for by me, then how is eliminating them saving me money? Ill wait.

Despite spending twice as much per capita, we are the only major country not to guarantee health care to all as a human right.

Recently met someone who was very surprised to hear I didn’t use ChatGPT or any LLM.
I said my job depended on doing distinctive work. That was my selling point. If I started to sound like ChatGPT and turn out what it did, then how on earth could I justify doing it? What would that make me?
