Lately, I've been reading about the differences between what men find attractive in the opposite sex vs. what women find attractive in the same sex. Femme vs masc traits. It's fascinating. Who do you think is more attracted to Donovan Greenn?

Remember when we thought Zuck might have regretted helping Trump get elected? Even more shocking, is that we believed he had a conscience at all.

All the happy holidays to everyone. Enjoy the season
Abstract mandala art by myself. Wispy, swirled design in white and light blue is repeating patterns around the center. Looks like a snowflake, perfect for this winter holiday season.
