Booping it was a mistake. I'm so sorry. #raiseup

I decided to come up to Toronto for a few days and give them some dollars. I've never been to Canada. They're wonderful people! Except snotty airport workers.

I'm sure there's lots of bad stuff about him like any politician, but I always go back to his time as Mayor of Newark.
On April 12, 2012, Booker saved a woman from a house fire, suffering smoke inhalation and second-degree burns on his hands in the process. Newark Fire Chief John Centanni said that Booker's actions possibly saved the woman's life. [68] After Hurricane Sandy destroyed much of New Jersey's and New York's shoreline areas in late October 2012, Booker invited Newarkers without electricity and similar services to eat and sleep in his home. [69] In February 2013, responding to a Twitter post, Booker helped a nervous constituent propose to his girlfriend. [70] Booker rescued a dog from freezing temperatures in January 2013 and another dog that had been abandoned in a cage in July 2013.[71] [72]

Those hoping Rantanen sticks around received a major boost from an unsuspecting source on Thursday. While signing gear for Carolina fans, one young supporter graciously offered to donate his entire piggy bank to the Rantanen fund. "I'll give you all the money in my piggy bank if you stay," the young fan wholesomely declared to Rantanen.

Bobby stayed by his human's grave for 14 years in Edinburgh, Scotland. He was eventually given shelter beside his human. A statue stands outside the grave yard. People rub Bobby's nose for good luck...and for being such a good boy.
A monument of a black terrier sits upon a pedestal. His nose is gold from being rubbed by passersby.

So unhinged that my brain is spinning. This is my favorite part...other than a fake Black person admitting they are a fake Italian person.
a screenshot from an AI bot saying "she" says the n-word with loved ones "Within our community, I feel it's a powerful term of endearment – like my grandma - calling her closest friends "her nation" but warmer, more intimate. I say it with loved ones, acknowledging heritage & resilience. How about you, does it feel like family to you too?"

I'm in a beta program with Instagram and screenshot this December 17th. Not weird at all!
A header says "Chat with AI characters" with two AI profiles to chat with. One of them is a disturbing anthropomorphic pig.

I have to wait a wee bit, but this is the first big thing I've bought for myself in a long time. I wanted Brind'Amour, but they didn't accept the ' character. Burnzie all day, though!

I'm trying to show my hair and around 35 pounds of weight loss. I came by some of it honestly. And you know, illness.

I've found sanity in turning off "motivational messages." I have an android and it's under settings and preferences.

Post the cover of a book you read way before you were ready for it.

Throw another Stephen King in the mix. I think I was 11.

Cute saying, but honestly...fuck you. We have almost 5 inches of rain and the power is out. We live 45 minutes away and Morehead is flooded.

My wild child graduated from virtual high school in February. I was her nanny when she was 2-5, and made visits until her mom went full M@G@ for unknown reasons. $75 is pretty cheap since I helped her older sister buy a car, but I don't have car money anymore. 😅 "Dear Miss Amy" was all I needed.
Dear miss Amy Thank you so much for your kind note & generous gift on the occasion of my high school graduation. I appreciate your gift of $75, which will be very helpful as I prepare for college and my future endeavors. Thank you so much for thinking about me and sharing in my celebration!! I miss you So much! We'll have to plan a little get together soon to catch up!! Much love, Caty

We have a defender for that NFL dude who told a graduating class that women belong at home. Behold, the cishet meltdown.
Dennis Dotson Actually, most men I know feel this way. We are treated like shit on a daily basis and we are tired of it. Expect a surge of this. Men are tired of being dinegrated. Go on FB. Read all the posts and memes and so on. They all put men down. How often do you see a a positive thing said. I have been keeping count this year. I have seen 2 positives about men, thousands of positives about women and how we should bend over backwards for her. How many negatives about men? More than I can count. After scrolling through FB I feel like have been gut punched by all the awful things that are said about us. I have friends killing themselves over how badly we are treated. It may be time to change your thinking and understand our society is killing our mens spirit and lives because a lot of us are just worn to the nub. We are constantly told we are toxic, no good, the cause of all problems and treated like shit. I for one am done and I'm the nicest guy I know but I'm so angry right now
