Opinion | The blurred line between X and the Trump administration Forget the ridiculous "Twitter Files." This is what it actually looks like when a social media company works in concert with the government.

Did you know that by substituting your morning coffee with green tea, you can eliminate up to 93% of what little joy you have left?

Reminds me of this pepper I found. So he constantly experiences his own heat? So his entire existence is pain?

Also I forgive myself if I space out same as when Iโ€™m reading. Thatโ€™s what the 15/30 second rewind button is for ๐Ÿค—

Iโ€™m similar but listen to a ton of podcasts. Has to be during *low level* activity like:
- washing dishes
- walking
- playing a completely mindless phone game

Anything less I space out, anything more Iโ€™m distracted. Also I recommend trying some nice over-ear headphones!

$20 billion in military aid to a country is not โ€œreal leverageโ€ over that countryโ€™s military actions, but yes everyone but you is living in fantasy land

Trump won the election. They are making a play, however feeble, to prevent more of their people from dying. Mocking this as stupid is genuinely disgusting.

he was the best of trial hosts by a wide margin (the others all lacked swag which it turns out was Trebekโ€™s most important quality as host). People get mad when I say this, I wish I wasnโ€™t cursed with the knowledge but itโ€™s true
