"The themes of Helldivers 2 could have an ideological meaning, albeit not necessarily a straightforward one. But ultimately, the messages on the shooter’s bullet casings can best be described as bizarre and extremely online." This is how you summarize ambiguous facts

So proud of my ✨ WIFE ✨
In 2019-2020 I had the honor of working with a documentary team about this case and found his location in Germany. He was arrested a month after the film aired, and now, after 3.5 years, his trial has finally reached a conclusion.

Being back home after a work trip

Pro: sleep in own bed, choose own meals, clothing options not limited to suitcase, hug partner

In college, I took a small Anthro seminar - like 7 ppl. The prof was an elderly man who called me Johnathan the entire quarter. Did not know how to smoothly redirect him, nor did any of my classmates. He’s dead now. Unrelated.

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

Me: LOL damn, yeah. Hopefully Larry King isn’t saying much these days 🙏🏾🤞🏾

You're not "late to the party" when you enjoy an old book for the first time. Books don't have an RSVP deadline. The party started long ago, and guests show up when they're meant to.
