This was after 30 mins but she did turn 17 last week, bless her.

Me too. (Extends both fists...)

Or 2 words: Amerikkkan ISIS.

I'd have to draw the line at the Klu Klux Klan.

The US is going to need an entire Broadmoor of solitary for this administration and its enablers.

Good that Hamas will not be part of the ongoing peace process - but *absolutely neither* should Likud. State sponsored terrorism is still terrorism. The world can work with the rest of Knesset.

One of my favorite things in creating art is light. ✨Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness. #positivitypost #kidlitart

Anyone else noticed that white people in AI images are actually orange?
I wonder what pictures they've been training them on.

I'm struggling to find one good reason why I would wish fascist billionaires should exist.
