I love kids. I have two of them. Theyโ€™re amazing. However, kids are the absolute least self aware, clumsiest little puffins on the planet.

Please donโ€™t drive tonight unless you have to, and if you do drive, drive super slow and pay 100% attention at all times.

Happy Halloween! ๐ŸŽƒ ๐Ÿ‘ป ๐Ÿ’€

I believe this is also why they prefer go fund me's and fundraisers over health care reform, too. Same reasoning. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks this.

How is it progress to have to do every Google search twice with the 2nd one admitting that I'm correct in what I asked and they answered incorrectly before with responses? I'm about to become a luddite.

This article is too nice to Jennings who is nothing more than a soulless greedy man who tied himself to soulless greedy men a long, long time before trump arrived on the political scene.

Here's what I don't understand in the AI world. These essays will likely be written by AI and most certainly judged by AI, so why? What will you have proven about someone's patriotism or loyalty to trump?
