There are two candidates available to us in this election. It's an undeniable fact that one of them will better represent our most vulnerable citizens. I don't even need to say who it is. It's a small thing we can do to at least make these people feel like we haven't abandoned them. Vote. Please.

Wish me luck. I have a sleep clinic appointment tomorrow at the hospital. Last time I had a hospital stay they had to sedate me because I was in a complete state of panic.

Trains!!

Glad you're recovering well! ❤️‍🩹

Anyone I know who had the misfortune of meeting her on a canvas said she was a total wagon. She's not likeable enough in person to get votes.

They're making the sunsets transgender!

The quotes here, at their most generous, are praise so faint they are almost incorporeal.

And those are from FF sources.

It's certainly a choice to write an article that ends by decrying the rising political violence in the USA without once mentioning that Charlie Kirk was responsible for a lot of it.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, or Alice in Chains.

(Whoever wrote this forgot about the best album of the 90s, no contest.)
