I get paid for engineering so I can lose money doing photography. Opinions probably aren't my own but I couldn't tell you precisely where I got them from. Grateful to hug my wife and kids every day.

“The All-American Halftime Show," born out of outrage over Bad Bunny's Super Bowl performance, fell short of the hype. From Kid Rock’s poor lip synching to Erika Kirk being MIA, it was simply dull. www.wired.com/story/turnin...

FAMU can't use the word Black on anything posted around campus related to Black History Month, to stay in compliance with Florida state laws against DEI. Black students can't use the word Black at their Historically Black College during Black History Month.

Should I release a video on my second channel where I talk about the Universe of Energy at EPCOT right now?
I hear there's a big game on or something so not sure it's a good time. I'm only being very facetious.
