Do you ever just sit there mid-read, realizing there was a time where people hand wrote books? No typewriters, no computers, no laptops, no smartphones...

βLetβs agree to disagree.β
About my rights? Absolutely not.
About the rights I want my fellow overlooked and marginalized communities to have? Hell no.
About which brand Mac n cheese you like?
Fine. But ur on thin ice there too depending on your stances of the above.
