Finally got my #acnh island transferred from my switch to my switch 2. It took 5 or 6 times, I was surprised when it finally worked.

ACNH is nice on the switch 2, transition screen times are much shorter and graphics are more intense. Still hoping for a new animal crossing game to be released soon.

From a director at the … American Enterprise Institute

Right on time as we approach the peak months of the #Hurricane Season. Monitoring three areas across the #Atlantic. Good chance of one tropical system forming off the East Coast this week. Good news: it will move eastward out to sea. Next names: #Dexter, #Erin, #Fernand. #wx

My 🐶 seems better! Even with 72 hours of antibiotics, her fever didn't abate. So, the hospital's internal medicine vet stopped antibiotics and tried her on steroids. Her fever dropped to normal.

If she continues to do well overnight, my girl comes home Monday and continues as an outpatient.

Many Americans look at this with horror, but this was the Finnish dream. Plain, honest living for a simple and modest nation.

My little 🐶 is still in the hospital and they don't know why she's so sick. The iv fluids and antibiotics have helped her feel better but her fever keeps spiking, so she can't come home yet.

This is awesome. Love it!

a user on x posts in response to a cnbc story by tesla reporter Lora Kolodny, “Elon, @lorakolodny writes article after article for CNBC that puts Tesla in a very bad light. Here is a link to today's CNBC piece written by Lora. x.com/cnbc/status/19. It is clear to me through her CNBC writings that she is out to hurt Tesla.”
