Once I got to my desk this morning, the first thing I did was take my #HIV medication.

On my way to work I got some coffee and took my #HIV medication.

Monday morning is off to a light and quick start with my #HIV medication.
A new message board for artificial intelligence agents has prompted some strange conversations, and existential questions about the inner lives of bots.
